NovelEnglish"Why not? Mr. Sullivan, your best bet right now is to call the police..." Squinting, Maggie was somewhat puzzled at Cillian's reluctance to involve the police.
Were they international fugitives afraid of being discovered by the police? Maggie started speculating on the various possible explanations after hearing Cillians words. Even Cillian himself was aware that his actions were illogical.
To prevent Maggie from making too many assumptions, Cillian could only give her a vague explanation.
"If Lulu was kidnapped, the other party might harm her if they find out that we've called the police. That's why we can't call the police. We need to think of another way." Cillian somehow managed to convince Maggie, so she started thinking of ways to find Lucy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCillian did not have many contacts in Charleston, but his teacher had close ties with the royal family.
If he could leverage this connection, finding Lucy would be much easier with the help of the royal family.
However, he was just a student. Although he was his teacher's favorite student, he still did not have enough leverage. How was he going to persuade the royal family to help him find someone? Unless...
Cillian sighed and decided to call Matthew.
Regardless of the circumstances, Matthew was still Lucy's husband, so he had the right to know about her disappearance.
"Hello, Cillian? Where's Lulu? Lettalk to her." Matthew read the message from Lucy as soon as he woke up, and his heart started racing. Why would his wife change her phone number all of a sudden? He had tried calling her old number only to find out that it was no longer in service. He wanted to ask Cillian what was going on, but his gut told him not to as he did not want to hear Cillian's voice. Besides, Lucy said in her text that once she changed her phone number, she would call him.
Thus, Matthew had been anxiously waiting for Lucy to call. To his dismay, he received a call from Cillian first.
Matthew was irritated, so his tone was not polite at all when he answered. Cillian remained silent for a long ton the other end.
Suddenly, Matthew felt a pang in his heart, and he heard Cillian say, "Matthew... Lucy, she... She's gone..." "What did you say? Say it again. What do you mean Lucy's gone?" Suddenly, Matthew was drained of all emotion, and his voice was as chilling as the deep winter.
Cillian felt overwhelming guilt in his heart as he struggled to explain, "She said she wanted to go for a walk in the garden today. I didn't expect..." "She said she wanted to go for a walk in the garden, and you let her go alone? Cillian, don't you know what situation she's currently in?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"How could you let her go out alone? Cillian, I was wrong about you, Im thought you would do everything in your power to protect Lucy, but look at what you did..." Matthew's voice grew colder and colder. If it sounded like the depths of winter before, now it sounded like the Arctic.
It was so cold that it could make one's bones shiver. Matthew was livid. If he could, he would have killed Π.
Cillian by now. "I know I was wrong for letting her go out alone, but our priority right now is to find her as soon as possible."
Cillian was drowning in his own regret and guilt, but he could not afford to let his emotions take over.
At the very least he had to find Lucy. Once he found her, he would do anything to make amends. "I'll do everything in my power to find my wife. Cillian, you'd better pray that Lucy is safe. Otherwise, I'll never forgive you." "Yes, I know. If something happens to Lucy, I won't be able to forgive myself either..." X
