Chapter 2398
When she heard Madeline asking her this, Ava felt as if her heartstrings had been tugged by something abruptly.
“Maddie, why are you asking that?” Ava was so nervous that she even stuttered a little when she spoke. As she asked, she took out her phone. “I talked with Danny last night. Maddie, look."
She handed the phone to Madeline nervously.
“He was fine when he was talking to me last night. How could something have happened today?”
Madeline hurriedly calmed Ava's emotions. "Ava, don't be nervous. Let me take a look first."
Madeline took the phone and saw the messages Daniel sent Ava last night.
"Ava, you didn't talk on the phone with him, did
you?”
"No." Ava shook her head, looking increasingly nervous and solemn. “Maddie, what happened? Did something happen to Danny?”. Madeline looked up at Ava's anxious eyes. "Ava, calm down and listen to me. Maybe nothing has happened to Dan, but he's missing."
"What? Missing?” Ava's eyes widened in shock." Missing? How did he go missing all of a sudden? No, no, no, we just talked to each other last night!”
Ava got her phone back and called Daniel right away.
However, he did not pick up.
Ava called two more times in a row, but still, no one answered. However, after a minute, she got a message.
Daniel: [Ava, I'm busy right now. I'll reply to you later.
This message was sent in Daniel's name but clearly, this was not Daniel's reply.
