In just about an hour of searching, he was now drenched in sweat.
Mila came out with him. Could something have happened to her? Gerald had already ruled out all of the possibilities and had already been waiting around the area for such a long time.
But he still couldn’t see Mila anywhere at all.
The more he thought about it, the more Gerald started to break out in cold sweat.
Gerald decided to return to the car shop to see if he could get his cell phone to turn on.
After fiddling with it for a while, he finally managed to turn on his cell phone.
As expected, Mila did indeed make many phone calls and sent many text messages to him.
However, his cell phone had been turned off at that time.
Gerald hurriedly returned her call but he realized that Mila’s cell phone was already turned off.
What was happening?
Gerald couldn’t remain his composure any longer.
He tried calling Mila’s house but he noticed that she did not go home either.
Something definitely had happened.
Gerald suddenly raised his head.
Things seemed to be a little suspicious.
“Mr. Wilson, do you know the manager of the milk tea shop? I want to take a look at the surveillance camera recording! We need to hurry!”
Gerald immediately got up.
Wilson stuck by Gerald the entire time after he came back to the car shop.
When he realized that Gerald’s girlfriend might be in trouble, he was constantly on his toes.
Wilson nodded as he exclaimed that he knew the manager. He quickly led Gerald to the milk tea shop.
After looking at the recording of the surveillance camera, Gerald starting figuring it out slowly.
Everything happened about two hours ago.
After Mila bought the milk tea and stepped out of the shop, she realized that Gerald was gone.
She then hurriedly tried to call Gerald but discovered that Gerald’s cell phone was turned off.
Mila was very anxious.
She squatted by the roadside as she waited for ten minutes, but Gerald did not come back at all.
During those few minutes, a black Passat suddenly stopped right next to Mila.
