A few minutes later, Chad, who had received Malcolm's order, ran over and followed Malcolm.
"Do you suspect that Anthony took advantage of Lyra's weakness, did bad things to Lyra, even hid Lyra?"
Malcolm didn't say anything and walked forward with a sullen face, obviously thinking it.
Chad sighed and said thoughtfully, "Bro, Anthony helped us before, and you helped him take over the Callahan family. He's been behaving himself all these years, and now he has a girlfriend. I don't think he... would do such a thing."
The more he talked, the smaller his voice became. Even he was skeptical. However, he had known Anthony for so many years. They had even had a fight before, and had always been like bad friends. He didn't want Anthony to end up like what happened with the S404 biochemical virus, and do something radical again.
He didn't want Anthony to go back to prison.
Seeing the complexity in his eyes, Malcolm stopped and stared at him coldly. "How well do you know him? What can you promise?"
Chad completely hung his head and stopped talking.
"Back then, I thought that he was willing to be Spencer and Momo's godfather, because he wanted to put the past behind him and let go of his obsession with Lyra, and he wanted to live a better life. But as long as Lyra is in trouble, he would chase after her. He's as impatient as me. If he finds Lyra before I do, are you sure that he wouldn't do anything to her?"
Chad was unable to refute, and his head bowed sadly.
"Call him right now, in front of me," Malcolm said in a deep voice. "I hope I'm wrong."
"Yes..."
Chad took out his phone, found Anthony's number in his address book, and dialed it. He turned on the speaker in front of Malcolm and Brad.
Brad quickly got the Tech department to start tracking Anthony's location. As soon as Anthony answered the phone, NIB would be able to track his location.
The ringing of the mobile phone kept ringing.
Malcolm sat aside with a sullen face, and Chad stood in line.
He didn't answer the phone.
The phone rang for more than a minute and hung up. No one answered.
Chad couldn't explain anything for Anthony anymore.
Why didn't he answer the phone in the middle of the afternoon?
The air froze. Chad's back stiffened, and he glanced at Malcolm's face, waiting for his next move.
Malcolm thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Text him and tell him there's something new going on with Lyra, and it's tricky. And you need his help."
"Yes."
Chad tapped the phone, typed word for word, and sent it.
Two minutes later, he called Anthony again.
This time, the call went through.
Anthony said, "What's going on?" almost immediately
Chad looked at Malcolm and said in a slightly anxious voice, "Lyra was found is a fake. She died on the operating table this morning."
Anthony was silent for a while, as if digesting the news.
After a long time, he did not speak again.
Even Chad, sensing that something was wrong with him, said, "Anthony, where the hell have you been?"
When Anthony heard about Lyra's accident, he was very worried. This time, he found out that the Lyra that he had found was a fake. The real Lyra was still missing. He was so calm and didn't ask any questions.
Something was really wrong on him.
Chad gritted his teeth and said, "Anthony, you mustn't do anything extreme. You know the influence of NIB in Crana. It's only a matter of time before the truth comes out. You..."
After receiving a cold look from Malcolm, Chad paused and said no more, "You're on your own!"
He hung up the phone and walked to Malcolm's feet with his head down. He knew he made a mistake, his broad shoulders hunched, and his hands clenched helplessly.
"I'm sorry. I couldn't help but threaten him a little more."
Before Malcolm could say anything, Brad took the lead. "Boss, we've got a location. The signal is weak, but there's no immediate movement."
"Where is it?" Malcolm got up and walked over to check the red dot on his computer screen.
