Chapter 581
Missing?
“Who did you say was missing?”
“Zac.”
“What? Zac is missing?”
Shocked, Olivia quickly got off the bed and ran out without putting on her shoes.
“Ken, do you know what you’re talking about? Why would he go missing? He is the Quinton family’s
“Liv, I hope it’s not true. I’m calling you. It’s my last hope.”
Ken paused. “A week ago, he knew no lawyer would accept your case, so he bought a plane ticket and decided to come to you. I guessed that.
“So, I didn’t care when he wasn’t at the firm.
“However, it has been a week, and I haven’t heard from him. His phone is off. I checked and found out that he didn’t board the plane that day.
“I thought maybe he took another flight, or maybe he didn’t use an airline at all. However, Liv, you said you haven’t met him, so he didn’t go to Murica.”
Olivia shuddered and bumped into the passing nurse.
“Sorry. I’m sorry…”
She quickly apologized to the nurse. Then, she ran out of the hospital, stopped by a taxi, and went home.
“Ken, I’m buying a ticket back to Ocean City now.”
“What? You’re going back to Ocean City? Are you crazy? You know…”
“Ken, I can’t do nothing after learning that Zac has disappeared. He saved my life.”
He seemed to know that he could not persuade her, so he said, “Alright, let me know when you arrive. I will pick you up.”
“No, it’s too obvious for you to pick me up. I’ll just go back myself.”
“Erm… I’ll find you a house, then.“
“Okay. Thank you. Please help me to keep an eye on Zac’s matter. Remember to let me know if you get any news.”
“Okay, no problem.”
