Lily was very fast and efficient.
Nora was about to open her email inbox when violent knocking suddenly came from the door.
Nora was surprised.
Pete slipped out of the bed and ran over to open the door.
It was Joel.
A puzzled Pete asked, “What’s the matter, Uncle Joel?”
Joel was aware that Nora was always sleepy, and needed twelve hours of sleep a day.
Why would he come over and disturb her rest when it was only seven o’clock in the morning?
Joel asked, “Is your Mommy awake? Can you wake her up ? I have something very important to
talk to her about”
Nora, who had also realized the urgency of the matter, quickly changed and walked over.
“What’s wrong, Joel?”
Joel frowned when he saw her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe asked, “Quentin is missing.Did you ask him to do anything for you?”
Nora’s heart sank.
At last, she understood why Joel had come over so early in the morning.
A grave look came over her countenance.
“I didn’t, but he went to the tournament arena last night”
She picked up her cell phone at this point, upon which she saw the two messages that Quentin had
sent her some time past eleven o’clock the previous night.
However, the two messages didn’t give her any clues.
She frowned.
“Might he be resting somewhere?”
“No.” Joel spoke with certainty.
“Quentin’s identity is special.There aren’t many people who know of his existence.Because he only
comes into contact with the people from Smiths’ secret forces, and everything he does is
dangerous, he has to report his itinerary to me on time every day.When I didn’t receive his report
this morning, I knew at once that something has gone wrong.It was only when I contacted the
people from the secret forces that I found out Quentin had already lost contact with them last night!”
The previous night…
But before he could finish, Nora had already interrupted him.
She instructed, “Assemble everyone in the Quinn School of Martial Arts and launch a city-wide
search for Quentin! Aka Smithin from the tournament!”
Lucas was taken aback.
“What happened?”
Nora replied, “I suspect something has happened to him”
Lucas’s voice immediately turned grave.He said promptly and decisively, “Understood”
Lucas then said, “I will also contact the martial arts association and ask their staff to search for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim.We also have a lot of people taking part in the tournament.Someone may have seen
something…
“Okay, Let me know if you find out anything.Keep your phone reachable at all times!”
“Understood.”
After hanging up, Nora thought for a moment and called Justin.
New York was the Smiths’ and the Hunts’ turf.
Everyone in the Smiths was already out looking for Quentin.
If the Hunts also dispatched their men, they would have an even higher chance of finding Quentin.
She wasn’t going to care about whether it would embarrass the Smiths or the Hunts at a time like
this! Justin picked up the call very quickly.
He was likely very awake.
He didn’t sound as teasing as usual, either.
Instead, his voice was low and deep as he asked seriously, “What’s wrong?”
The fact that Nora had woken up so early was indicative that something must have gone wrong.
For some reason, Nora calmed down when she heard his voice.
