Leena had to wait for more than ten minutes. She couldn't wait any longer and called Lily, but her phone was powered off.
Her phone was turned off. What happened? Lily went out to make a phone call, but why was her phone powered off? Leena wondered if she had something urgent to deal with and left first. Although it was impolite for she to leave in this way, if there was really something urgent, she didn't have time to say. It was indeed forgivable that her phone was out of power. Leena had no choice but to ask the waiter to pay the bill himself.
Then she was about to leave, but when she passed by Lily's seat, she found that Lily's handbag was still on the seat. She stopped again.
If Lily had something urgent, it was impossible for her not to take her bag. If she didn't take her bag or cash, and her phone was out of power, where could she go? Besides, Lily was well-educated. She really had something urgent to deal with. In such a hurry, she should at least tell the hotel waiter to tell her, but she didn't say anything. Leena felt strange and thought about it for a while. At last, she was surprised and wondered if something had happened to Lily!
Leena walked along the way that Lily made the phone call just now. She remembered that she made a phone call in the corner for a while and then went out through the small door, because their position was close to the window. Leena also saw her shake outside, but she didn't know when she disappeared and didn't pay attention to her.
When she walked out of the hotel, she saw that there was a road outside, but it was relatively remote. There were very few stores that opened at night, and only dim street lights were very cold. Occasionally, a car drove past, but because of the small number of people, the car was very fast, and no one could see it.
Leena was really anxious. She quickly called Lily again, but her phone was still powered off. She became nervous, wondering if something bad really happened to Lily? She didn't know who she could contact. After thinking about it for a while, she could only ask for help from Carlson.
Carlson cared about Lily the most, and he was the most capable one. He would handle it well. But Leena really felt that she was unlucky. How could something happen every time she stayed with Lily alone? Like last time when she was in the hospital, she accidentally hurt Lily. This time, she went out to have dinner with her and she disappeared. Probably, Carlson was furious.
She called Carlson. Sure enough, he was very excited and asked her, "Where are you?"
Leena told him the hotel's name. "Wait there. I'll be right there," said Carlson.
When she hung up the phone, she clearly heard that Leena shouted behind her, "Damn it!" It seemed that he really cared about Lily.
Leena tried her best to hold back her impatience and waited for Carlson. His company was far away from here, so it would take some time for her to come here. Leena waited for a long time and finally saw him. When she saw his car coming, she went up. However, as soon as he got off the car, he was talking on the phone. She didn't want to disturb him, so she stood beside him and looked at him.
Carlson didn't look good. It seemed that he was holding back his anger and didn't say anything. He just listened to the phone for a long time. After hanging up the phone, he looked even worse.
"What's wrong?" asked Leena gently
"It's Alina. Alina kidnapped Lily!"
Leena was so shocked that she almost jumped up and cursed. Alina, that bitch, kidnapped her! She was not afraid of death. After all, Lily was much more important than her. Lily not only had Carlson behind her, but also Mr. Martin. Was Alina desperate so that she did this?
