Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 39: I'm here. Don't panic!

Apparently, there had been a car accident on Cloud Port Road, and a small section of the refuge island on the side near the sea had been destroyed.

The drivers had been already sent to the hospital. The related staff was cleaning the scene. But Sally was not here.

"Sallys phone!" Emily found Sallys mobile phone in the items cleaned out by the staff.

She tried to get it, but she was stopped by one of the staff.

"You can't move these things just yet.'

"That belongs to my friend!" Emily said in a hurry, “Are you sure only two drivers were taken to the hospital? Have you seen a girl? There was a girl about my age in one of the cars!"

"Sorry, the ambulance took away both drivers, both of whom were men, not the girl you mentioned."

"Impossible! My friend was in the car!" Why did she go away and leave her mobile phone here?

"Is there a girl in her late teens? Please. it's her phone. She was in the car when the accident happened!"

"We have no idea." When the ambulance came, they already arrived at the scene. lt was true that only two drivers were sent to the hospital.

"That's impossible! Check again, please! She must have been there!"

The staff did not want to talk to her anymore. Emily wanted to catch them up but was pulled back by Hunter. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Her legs went limp and she accidentally bumped into his arms.

Hunter subconsciously held her in the arms, stopping her from catching the staff there at the same time.

"Let me go, Hunter. I still have a lot of questions...'

ignoring her words, Hunter dialed a number and issued coolly a command, "Check all surveillance videos of this area and investigate any vehicles passing by around 7:30 p.m."

He hung up and looked down at the girl in his arms.

"They have no reasons to lie to you. lt is useless to ask more."

Of course, she knew it!

But Sally disappeared for no reason after a car accident now. Emily had totally been in a state of confusion.

"Could Sally have been kidnapped?” Emily did not find herself in the arms of Hunter.

She looked up at him as if this man had become someone she could only rely on.

This fragile appearance let Hunter's heart inexplicably been shaken.

He did not want to frighten her, but as things stood, it was very likely.

"What about your friend's family? Does she have any enemies?"

"Her family is not well off, and their relationships are not so good. As for enemies...'

What enemy could Sally have?

She was a nonentity at school. She couldnt offend anyone.

lf there was really an enemy, it could only be Emily's enemy.

Sally liked to follow Emily, obeying her orders with no doubt or hesitation.

Are they...my enemy?

In the previous life, those kidnappers did take Emily as the target. lt was Sally that saved her but was abducted by the kidnappers.

But she did not meet the kidnappers in this life. Why did Sally still disappear?

After a while, Hunter s cell phone rang and he immediately put it through.

"Young master, this section of road is not monitored. But we have found someone that is similar to Sally in the monitoring recording of Cloud Port."

The video was sent over. lt was indeed Sally. Emily recognized her at a glance!

She walked to the dock alone, with no one kidnapping her. Why did she do that? How did this happen?

Liam called again, "Young master, we found that Sally had been on a yacht. She was already at sea."

"No!" Hunter had his phone's speaker on, in order to let Emily get the latest news. Hearing such news, Emily almost fainted.

Hunter hugged her in his arms, “Calm down."

"No, not at sea, not at sea...

Emily was trembling all over. In her previous life, Sallys body was found by people at the seaside.

Can't go to sea. Sally, you carit be at seal

Never had Hunter seen such a desperate look on her face, he held Emily closer and said quietly, 'Listen to me. m here. Don't panic!"

She stared up at him as if frightened by his voice.

Hunter was still holding the phone. He said calmly, "Get the speedboats ready and go out to sea to find her."

Then he hung up the phone and picked her up.

"Hunter...' Where was he taking her?

"Go to sea to search. I'lÌ keep you company." He could feel that her legs were still weak now. Although he did not know why the girl had panicked like that, he was sure she had her own reasons.

Since her legs were too weak to walk, he had to carry her to the dock.

"Watch on your phone. There may be some messages from her.'

His words reminded Emily. She immediately took out her phone.

Unexpectedly, when she just took out the phone the moment, the phone got a short message, a video message.

In the video, Sally was tied up and thrown on the beach.

Later, here came a text message, asking her to go to the beach to redeem Sally. And she must go alone!

The video didn't tell her which beach she should go to, or how much money she should take with...

Hunter looked at his watch. It was 7:50. And it was still a while before the engagement party started. Emily got this video at this time...

"Who have you offended lately?" He asked.

Emily's hand is still shaking, but Hunter's voice gradually calmed her down.

Finally, her reason returned.

"No specific amount, no location, they...they were just trying to lure me out?”

She checked her phone again. It was 7:51.

She frowned and said, "They don't want me to engage you! They want me to run away from the engagement"

This girl finally realized the situation. After all, she was clever enough but was really frightened just now.

"What do you want to do now?” Hunter had already taken her to the dock.

With the sea breeze blowing away her anxiety, Emily calmed down a bit.

She looked at the video again and asked, "Hunter, I'm not familiar with this area. Are there any similar islands around here?"

"Yes, the nearest one is in the east called Soleil Island. Is about twenty minutes away by speedboat. Another one named Lear island is a little further away, and it's about forty minutes...

"It must be Soleil Island! They had no time to go to another island.”

Emily breathed a sigh of relief, trying to see the surroundings. She found herself was still in Hunter's arms.

Her face turned red and made a gentle push, "Hunter, I can walk now. Put me down."

Hunter did not embarrass her this time. When he put her down, a dozen speedboats arrived in the distance.

Before boarding the speedboat, Emily looked at him and said, "Hunter, could you ask someone to help post a message on the Internet that I'm running away and you are going to cancel the engagement party?”

"Young madam, the young master said that no one could cancel the engagement party, even if everyone would have waited until dawn!"

Just arriving here, Liam said with an anxious look, "It is the second time! If this engagement would be cancel again, the old lady will be angry."

"It's okay,' Hunter stared at the steady look in Emily's eyes. His words were light but unassailable, Just do as she says."
