He nodded.

When | got into the car, | shamelessly asked again, "M r. Fredericks, can | get a month's advance on my salary?"

| had lost everything. My ID card and bank card needed to be replaced. | did not even have a cell phone right

now. It was not really convenient to be without one.

Jordan glanced at me, not saying anything. He merely took out a white box from the glove compartment and

handed it to me.

| took it and unboxed it. It was a cell phone.

He said flatly, "This will be your salary this month."

| quickly nodded. "Don’t worry, Mr. Fredericks. I'll work hard."

After not having a phone for two months, | felt like | was about to turn into an alien.

| was a little emotional when | switched on the phone.

However, there was no SIM card in the phone, so | could not use it to do anything.

| cheerfully told myself to register a SIM card after work.

The Fredericks owned a large industry in Hommiton City, mainly in jewelry. Its daily shipment quantity was

astoundingly huge.

The company's building was located in the city center of Hommiton City, which was always the most prosperous

part of a city.

Although | was Jordan's secretary, | was still not used t o the company's environment and general workflow.

Hence, | spent the morning familiarizing myself with i t.

During lunch break, | went to the business office to register a SIM card.

The first thing | did when | was able to make a phone call was to call the police.

| was not sure if the law firm and those people were still there, but | could not just sit around and do nothing just

because | was not sure.

| was lucky enough to escape, but that did not mean that everyone was lucky like me. | did not want anyone else

to go through the shorrifying ordeal.

After | logged into the chat software, which was bound to my bank card, | felt completely grounded.

After leaving Whaldorf City, | had not replied to people's messages nor posted a tweet.

| looked at the notifications that kept popping up, all o f which were messages sent toby my friends in

Whaldorf City.

Theo was the one who sent the most messages. | hesitated for a moment before tapping on it.

He sentmany photos of him and Munchkin. None of the messages were wordy. He would also greetevery

day.

The last one was sent yesterday. It seemed like he was doing okay.

After thinking about it, | replied: [I'm doing very well. Don't worry.]

| did not know what else to say other than this.

Later, | sent Cassey and Susan a text as well to tell them that | was safe.

Two days later, | made a trip to Riverbank City because | had to collect evidence.

The moment Horton saw me, the files in his hands fell to the floor. An undisguised look of surprise on his face.

"You're alive, Wanda Lane."

| smiled slightly. "I'm still alive thanks to you."

As | had given him a call when | was in the law firm, | needed to question him too.

When | went to the law firm, it was already empty.

What happened after that was beyond my control. After everything was done, | left.

Theo gavea call as soon as | stepped out of the door.

| was too familiar with his phone number. Even though I did not save his number, | knew it was him at a glance.

It was hard to choose whether to answer it or not.

It was not until the call was about to end that | made m y choice.

When | answered, the man's familiar voice entered my ears. "Where are you?" 2 &
