Chapter 1566
This sparked a thought in Alexander.
She was right. If Edward survived and managed to escape, he would try to return to Kingsland. As for
how, he would have his ways. After all, Edward had followed him through all sorts of predicaments. He
was agile and intelligent enough to find his way home.
Alexander had gotten caught in a loop. He had been so preoccupied with his search for Edward abroad
that he had neglected to consider the possibility that Edward had returned to Kingsland. Could the
disease have affected his mental capabilities in any way?
'You’re right!" Alexander's spirit was lifted. 'Til get someone to look for him here right away!”
Although there was a lot of ground to cover, the Russells were well- connected. In addition, the
Russells had spread their influence all over the country. Looking for someone here was easier than he
had imagined.
"Okay." Lily nodded.
For some reason, she always had a faint feeling that Edward was still alive. It wasn't self-soothing, she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtjust had a strong intuition that he was fine.
Her phone began to vibrate uncontrollably in her pocket. She had kept her phone silent ever since she
came here.
When she took it out, she saw that Olivia was calling. After glancing at Alexander, she turned around to
answer the phone.
"Hello, Olivia?" The signal in the basement was not very strong, so she walked toward the stairs.
"Lily, where are you?” Olivia asked. "I went to your house, but I couldn't find you. They said that you've
been away for two days."
'Yeah. Something urgent came up. What's the matter? Is something wrong?" Lily lowered her voice and
calmly asked.
"Did you go and see Mr. Russell?" Olivia asked unexpectedly.
Lily fell silent. She didn't want to lie to Olivia, but she also could not tell her what was going on.
Ultimately, Lily could only avoid the question and ask again, "What’s the matter?”
"Nothing." The other end was quiet for a while as Olivia seemed to take a deep breath before
answering.
Lily was a little surprised by her calmness. She had expected Olivia to burst into tears and collapse like
before. This calmness scared Lily.
Lily could not help but try comfort Olivia. "Olivia, stop thinking about it. Edward will be fine. All we need
to do now is wait for good news. I believe there'll be good news!"
This was her way of persuading not only Olivia, but also herself.
"I know," Olivia replied lightly.
To Lily’s astonishment, Olivia seemed completely at ease.
Just as she was about to ask another question, Olivia spoke up, "By the way, did you know something
happened in the lab?"
"The lab?" She glanced in Alexander's direction and noticed that he was focused on the computer
before asking, "What happened?"
"Police went to search the place. Apparently, someone went missing. I think it's that... Austin guy that
came to our studio before."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia could not quite remember his name. All she could recall was the man jumping up and down at
the studio door a while ago.
It seemed like Austin's parents had finally called the police. Lily breathed a sigh of relief. "What
happened after that?"
"They didn't find anyone," Olivia replied. "I heard they searched the laboratory from top to bottom but
found no one."
This was both an expected and an unexpected result.
Lily frowned. “Did they search everywhere?"
'Yes. They've checked all the surveillance tapes as well."
"Including the basement and the offices on the top floor?"
Although she had never been to the two places she mentioned, she was surprised and curious that the
police managed to search them.
"Yeah. The person's parents seem to be prestigious and powerful. They made a big commotion and
pressured the police force. The police
checked everything thoroughly. I heard they even dispatched the K9 force but didn't find anything. It
was concluded that maybe the laboratory had nothing to do with his disappearance."
Hearing this, Lily was speechless for a moment.
