Estelle was fast on her feet. She stopped at a bus stop, waiting for the bus to arrive.
Manley, huffing and puffing, caught up with her, "Estelle, where are you heading? Why are you in Silver Delta on your own?"
"None of your business!" With a backpack slung over her shoulder and a mask on her face, Estelle shot Manley a cold glance, "Stop tailing me!"
The bus arrived shortly. Manley wanted to board with Estelle but she pushed him away, "Stop following me or you'll regret it!"
"Estelle, what are you doing in Silver Delta?"
Estelle got on the bus. The doors closed, leaving Manley outside.
Manley hailed a taxi. He considered tracking Estelle on his own to see what she was up to, but changed his mind. As he instructed the driver to follow the bus, he pulled out his phone and made a call.
"I need you to tail a girl on the 305 bus. Yes, follow her everywhere," Manley ordered, "Be cautious, she's sharp. Don't let her spot you."
Manley had the taxi follow the bus for two stops until he saw his own car coming, then he had the taxi turn at the intersection.
Knowing that Manley was tailing her, Estelle kept an eye on the taxi behind her. Only when she saw it change its course did she let out a sigh of relief.
She felt regretful for her actions earlier. She had gotten herself into a big mess- Manley!
...
An hour later, Estelle boarded a train to Kulha Mountain.
The person tailing Estelle immediately called Manley, "Mr. Scott, we lost her!"
He had waited a few more days and become impatient when the person was unable to come from Kulha.
"Mr. Scott, why don't you come over? Once the person in charge signs the papers, everything will be sorted."
Suppressing his anger, Manley figured the person in charge was probably trying to bargain for a better deal on his own turf.
With that in mind, Manley didn't insist anymore, "Fine, I'll go to Kulha tomorrow!"
...
Estelle arrived at Kulha Mountain that night.
Kulha was surrounded by mountains on both sides and a river on the other. Many tribes lived there, the living environment complicated.
