Chapter 1239


    I turned the phone on and inserted the sim I had retrieved from my previous phone. It fitted well in


    my palm and was quite nice to hold. "What''s the brand of this phone? I don''t think I''ve seen it


    before!" I said.


    Hendrix nced sideways at it, "It''s a new brand, recently released in Oand. It''s likely a high-end


    brand incorporated with artificial intelligence."


    I nodded and continued studying it. At first nce, it did not seem very special, but it did look like it


    could be used as a projector watching movies.


    When I logged onto Whatsapp, I saw the series of messages I received. It was all from Hendrix. I


    blinked as the icon showed over a hundred unread messages. I was dumbstruck. Yet I understood


    then why he was so angry with me the night before. Not being able to get through to me must have


    made him so anxious.


    I looked at him and said with a faint smile, "Hendrix, don''t get angry if you can''t get through to me


    next time. It''s possible I''m not looking at my phone, or have it on silent. If I''m in danger or need help,


    I will call you as soon as possible."


    He looked at me and snorted childishly. Then, he said ndly, "No matter what happens, don''t turn


    off your phone or put it into silent mode. I can''t help but worry if I can''t reach you."


    I smiled at him foolishly. To bepletely honest, I enjoyed his concern. I liked it very much.


    Looking through the other messages I realized some were from Naomi.


    "Arianna, are you in Oand? Sebastian also went there yesterday. Please help me keep an eye on


    him. If he dares to look at other women, just let me know. I''ll fly over and kill him!"


    I didn''t hold back myughter. I replied, "Okay, I''ll help you keep an eye on him."


    Seeing that I was smiling, Hendrix asked, "What''s the matter? Why are you so happy?"


    "It''s Naomi. She said that Sebastian is here in Oand, so she''s asked me to keep an eye on him


    and make sure he doesn''t mess around. Otherwise, she''ll fly over and kill him."

    Hendrix suddenly stepped on the brakes and looked at me. "Sebastian is in Oand? When did he


    arrive?"


    Looking at his darkened face, I answered, "Naomi sent this messagest night so probably


    yesterday."


    Hendrix knitted his brows in thought then suddenly started the car and made a U-turn.


    I didn''t know what was going on, but I could tell, it wasn''t good. "What''s the matter? Did something


    happen?"


    Before he could answer, there was a loud bang. Before I could react to that, a serious expression


    appeared on Hendrix''s face. The car started moving so fast it was as if it was flying.


    "Hendrix..." I couldn''t even finish my sentence when the car suddenly started swerving out of


    control. I could feel myself leaving the seat.


    Staring at Hendrix''s serious and nervous face, it suddenly hit me that things were more serious than


    I thought.


    Hendrix kept on pumping on the brakes, but the car was out of control, speeding violently towards a


    barrier.


    Seeing that we were about to hit it, Hendrix desperately spun the steering wheel, but it was useless.


    With a loud crash, we hit the wall.
