Unsure of what was said on the other end of the phone, Theo's countenance sank. He said in an icy tone, “Hurry
up and go find her for me.” He hung up the call after saying that.

“Don't worry. This place isn't very big. She just went to buy ice cream. It should be easy to find her if she hasn't

Theo nodded. "Wait here for me. You can eat first if you're hungry. TH go and look for her.”
| pursed my lips. "I'll go with you. Shannon and | toured the whole resort stage. I'm more familiar with
this place than you."
Theo squeezed my hand. “Be good and listen to me. Eat. Otherwise, the food will be cold when we get back."

Ms. Reed?” "Hmm?" Cindy looked confused. "What are you talking about, Wanda? Why can't | understand?”
Now, she was callingWanda.
I laughed. "You can't understand? Letask y6u, then. You're in your 30s now. Deh't you feel tired trying. to
