Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 269

I was genuinely flabbergasted. Because my phone held a Pandora's box of secrets, and I’d be done for if it ever fell into the wrong hands.

Hannah quickly reassured me, "Don't panic, it's safe!"

"Where is it?" I asked, my voice laced with urgency.

"When you got knocked out, you dropped your phone, luckily, they were in too much of a hurry to make their escape to bother picking it up," Hannah explained, "That's why we couldn't track you."

Frustrated, I remembered that Hannah had warned me to keep my phone on and charged 24/7. But who could've foreseen such a turn of events?

It seemed the best-laid plans always being awry!

"So, where's my phone now?"

"Don't worry, it's with me!" Hannah replied, a playful smile on her face as she pulled my phone from her pocket and handed it to me.

"I was worried it might've ended up in the hands of strangers!" I explained, then asked, "So, how did we locate that car?"

"Mr. Richardson contacted the traffic department and tracked the surveillance footage from the building at the time you disappeared. We quickly determined the direction the car had taken. Several teams, including a helicopter, were dispatched to track it down. The whole process took less than 20 minutes."

"I was in the dark about all this," I sighed with regret, "Where did they finally find me?"

"You were found northwest of Goldenvale Town, in a village called Cobblestone," Hannah was precise, "But your hiding spot is still quite a distance from the village!"

"What about the car?" I inquired further.

"We intercepted the car 67 kilometers from Goldenvale Town, but to our surprise, you weren't in it," disappointment was evident on Hannah 's face.
