Everyone was taken aback by Justin’s sudden epiphany.
“Mr. Salvador’s hunch must be correct. There is a high chance that Miss Thompson is on Rose Island!”
Hope ignited in Yvonne’s eyes. She was convinced as well. “I remember Taylor mentioning Christopher buying an island in passing. He said Christopher was fond of the island and would frequently go there for short getaways.
“I never thought much of it at the time since Christopher had many properties, so another island didn’t make a difference. Now that I think about it, there must be something more to the island because of how often he heads over there in person. It’s quite unusual, even for him. He must have been planning it for a while. That island must be his final hiding place!”
If anybody else came up with this theory, it would have just been speculation.
However, Yvonne was Christopher's confidant, so her theory was highly plausible.
“We’re going right now! I’ll pilot the helicopter!”
Justin’s heart pounded violently against his chest.
His eyes were bloodshot. After he strapped a gun to his waist, he grabbed his phone and other equipment to prepare to leave. That was when Ralph and Declan rushed over to stop him at the door.
“No, you can’t go!” Declan put his arms out to stop Justin. “There’s been a typhoon warning around the region, issued by the officials. Starting tonight, all flights will be suspended for three days! You’re going to die if you take a helicopter now!”
Justin’s eyes were rabid. “In that case, I’ll take a boat and go by sea!”
Frantic, Ralph started cussing. “You bloody fool! How is that any better? I know you want to find Bella, but you shouldn’t lose your life trying to find her! We all know you're anxious, but you have to calm down!
“It’s been so many days. If something was going to happen to Bella, it would have happened long ago! So what if you have to wait three more days? If you go now, there is a 99% chance something bad is going to happen. I don’t want to have to lose another family member!”
Ralph’s eyes were also red as he spoke. Upon hearing his caution, Justin suddenly blurted out, “You said 99%. There’s still a 1% chance that it would work out.”
Justin could not control his surging emotions. He felt as if something was jammed in the middle of his throat. “As long as there is a sliver of chance, I will save Bella, even if I have to risk my life!”
He was born as stubborn as a mule, and there was no use trying to persuade him.
The only person who could ever hope to persuade him was not by his side, and Justin was on the verge of breaking down entirely at this point.
Asher was burning with anxiety. “Justin, please listen to us and wait just a little longer!"
“Wait?! It’s been almost half a month! Now that we finally have a lead, you’re telling me to wait again?!” Justin growled with exaggerated movements. “You want me to wait three more days?! What if Christopher suddenly loses it and hurts Bella? What if he knows we are on his tail? What if he takes her somewhere else?! Do you lot have any idea how big the world is? Where do you suppose I go to find her at that point?!”
Everyone fell silent.
