Chapter 593
Cole added, “I’ve checked her flight. She has arrived at Salem City Airport, and I also found out that… Jekyll is now in Salem City.”
“Jekyll is in Salem City?”
Jace’s expression changed again. Based on his earlier investigations, Jekyll was supposed to be in Smoke City Port, ready to be extradited out of the country. “I think they created a smokescreen for you. I just found out about it this afternoon.” Cole said, “Think about it. Jekyll came back for Sage. Why would he run before he achieved his goal? Are you still with Sage? Be sure to remind her to be careful.” At this point, Jace’s heart was in his throat. He hurriedly took Zachary’s number and called Sage. However, she did not answer.
He rolled out of bed and called Laura as he changed.
The phone rang twice and connected. He asked, “Are you with Sage now?” “Yeah. We are… Ugh-” Laura slumped on the side of the road and threw up again. “I’m telling you. Sage, she’s… She’s not human.”
Jace frowned as he listened to the noisy background. “Are you at a bar? Which bar?”
He changed his clothes, put on his hat, and left the ward.
There was no response from Laura except for the intermittent vomiting and wheezing noises. Jace was desperate and almost panicked. Suddenly, a cool voice sounded faintly in the call,” Are you okay? Miss Lane, you’re a special force member, but I didn’t expect you to have car motion sickness.”
Car motion sickness?
Jace’s footsteps stopped.
Laura disagreed. “I don’t get dizzy when I drive, but the way you drive.. it’s too crazy! We’ve raced cars in the camp too, in off-road vehicles, but we don’t have so many tricks like you.”
