Chapter 175
And they’re looking for it right after Sonia got it. No, more importantly, the post specifically says they’re looking for a girl with the necklace. In other words, the Grays are looking for a person, not the necklace. “Find out why the Grays are looking for this girl.” Toby tapped his finger on the edge of the car’s window. They’re looking for Sonia, but they don’t know about it.
“Understood.” Tom nodded.
Toby stared down at his phone. He hesitated for a moment, but eventually, he made the call.
Back at Paradigm, Sonia was correcting a tricky document. Just when she had some idea about it, her train of thoughts was cut off by a call. Frustrated, she took the call without even looking at the caller. “Who is this?”
Toby kept quiet when he realized Sonia was being impatient. Even a phone call annoys her now?
Sonia pinched her forehead after she received no response. “I’m hanging up.”
Toby pursed his lips, then he finally said, “It’s me.”
Sonia was surprised to hear his voice, so she took a look at the caller’s name on the screen. When she confirmed it was him, she continued the call. “Hi, Mr. Fuller. Anything?” she asked calmly.
“Did you see Triforce’s latest news?” he asked her.
“News?” Sonia was confused. “What news?”
I’ll take that as a no. So that means I’m the first to tell her. Delighted, Toby coughed softly and said, “The Grays are looking for someone with a special necklace. That’s you.”
“What? They’re looking for me?” Sonia gripped her pen tightly.
Toby nodded. “Yes, but they don’t know it’s you they’re looking for, because they don’t know you have the necklace.”
“Hold on. Let me take a look.” Sonia put her pen down, cradled her phone on the shoulder, and typed away on the keyboard. A short while later, she saw Triforce’s latest post, and she frowned. “Weird. How did they know the necklace still exists?”
Just like Toby, she didn’t think the Grays knew that the necklace still existed. However, their latest post overturned that assumption, and now she knew they were looking for her.
Toby kept quiet for a while, then he hazarded a guess. “Not sure. But they posted this not long after you took the necklace, so I think they found out about it by chance.”
Sonia nodded. Apparently, she shared his sentiment. “But if they only found this out by chance, they should only be looking for the necklace, not the person. And specifically a girl. They can’t be thinking that Rina’s still alive, can they?”
Toby was surprised Sonia came to the same conclusion as he did. “Maybe you’re right. Maybe they do think she’s still alive.” For some reason, the Grays knew Rina’s necklace still exists, but they don’t know Sonia possesses it. All they know is that a girl has it. They think the girl is Rina, so they did all this.
“Impossible.” Sonia shot up, shocked. “Grandma told me my dad drowned Rina. She can’t still be alive.”
“Why not?” Toby interrupted her. “Your necklace is proof.”
My necklace? Sonia reflexively touched her necklace. She had been wearing it at all times recently in case it went missing.
“You’re telling me Rina still lives because this necklace exists? What’s the connection?” she asked.
