Chapter 701


    At lunchtime, Ariah tried to give Jimmy another call, but his phone was still turned off.


    Slightly worried, she frowned, wondering what was going on with Jimmy and why he didn''t update


    her about his situation.


    In the evening, Ariah gave David a call after she got off work. Hearing that Jimmy did not turn his


    phone on, David seemed surprised. "Ariah, Captain Hudson did ask for a leave yesterday, and he


    said that was going to take you out on a trip. In fact, he hasn''t been working for the past two days."


    When Ariah heard that, she was stunned.


    Hurriedly, David asked from the other side of the phone, "Ariah, is Captain all right?"


    "Yes, he''s alright. I''m guessing that he has some personal matters to take care of, and he perhaps


    he doesn''t want to trouble you, so he lied and told you that he went on a trip with me." That was the


    only possibility that Ariah could think of.

    Immediately, David breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay then."


    In the end, David even asked her what matter was Jimmy dealing with and whether it was


    troublesome. Besides, he also asked why Jimmy didn''t tell them about it. However, Ariah didn''t


    know how to answer David''s questions, so she just casually gave a simple answer.


    Fortunately, David didn''t continue to pester her.


    After Ariah hung up the phone, she hailed a taxi and headed home. However, when she turned her


    head and looked out of the window, she suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up.


    Felipe!


    Back then, in the hospital, Ariah had saved Felipe''s contact number.


    Although Jimmy had gone to save Nicole, in order not to implicate David and the rest, Jimmy did not


    tell them about it.


    But he needed manpower, so who would be able to help him?


    Other than Felipe, perhaps only Ro would be the one.


    Immediately, she called Ro and Felipe, respectively. But just like Jimmy, Ro had also turned


    his phone off.


    However, Felipe''s phone was not turned off.


    The thing was, he didn''t answer her call.


    Therefore, Ariah could only call him over and over


    again.


    When she arrived at her apartment, her phone was almost out of battery, but Felipe still did not pick


    up his phone.


    Angrily, Ariah cursed as she threw her phone aside and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.


    Fifteen minutester, she came out of the kitchen with a bowl of instant noodles in her hand, and


    she heard the phone on the tea table buzzing.


    As Ariah''s heart skipped a beat, she quickly ran over to pick up the call.


    "Hello..."


    However, just as Ariah answered the call, she heard two beeps. It turned out that her phone was


    automatically turned off because it was out of power.


    "Ah!"


    Hurriedly, she found the charger and charged her phone as she waited impatiently to make the call.


    This time, Felipe picked up the call in an instance. "Are you crazy? You called me so many times


    that my phone battery almost died..."


    "Felipe!" Directly, Ariah interrupted him, "Did Jimmy go to find you and Ro?"


    However, he paused for a moment and said, "I don''t know."


    "What do you mean you don''t know?" At that moment, Ariah became annoyed.


    "I really don''t know. Ro has not been with me for the past two days. I even thought of asking you


    whether Jimmy had asked Ro out."


    Then, Ariah fell silent.


    As a matter of fact, Felipe had no idea what happened either.


    Could she have guessed wrongly?


    "I''ve called you so many times just now. Why didn''t you answer my call?" Suddenly, Ariah asked.


    "Ahem, I was in the toilet just now, so I didn''t hear your call." Embarrassed, Felipe answered.


    That answer left Ariah at a loss for words.


    "Do you still have anything to ask? If there''s nothing else, then I shall hang up and go have my


    dinner." A momentter, Felipe uttered.


    Then, Ariah frowned. For some reason, she somehow felt that Felipe was hiding something.


    "Felipe, do you remember thest time we met, you promised me that you would agree to one of my


    requests no matter what it is?"


    In disbelief, Felipe asked, "What do you want?"


    "I want you to tell me the truth. Tell me, is Jimmy with you?"


    Silently, Felipe thought to himself that how could Ariah be so smart. In fact, it was so terrifying.


    "If you''re a man, then keep to your promise. You better tell me everything you know, or you''ll be


    struck by lightning!" Harshly, Ariah said.


    With a gasp, Felipe eximed, "That''s so vicious of you!"


    "Tell me the truth then."


    However, Felipe hesitated for a long time before he finally revealed a little bit of information. "Ro


    did receive a call from Jimmy, but I have no idea what was their n. I did try to call Ro several


    times, but he turned off his phone and didn''t answer my call."


    It was then that Ariah finally felt at ease. Even though it wasn''t able to help with anything, at least


    she felt relieved.


    At least Jimmy and Ro were together, and they could watch out for each other.


    "If Ro ever gave you a call, you must inform me immediately, okay?"


    Before Ariah hung up, she repeatedly reminded Felipe a few times.


    That night, before Ariah went to bed, she gave it a thought and decided to trouble Emily.


    When Emily received her call, she was both surprised and excited. "Ariah!"


    Immediately, Ariah asked her, "Lennon didn''t beat you up, right?"


    "No, if he dared to hit me, I will fight with him to death."


    That answer left Ariah dumbfounded.


    However, Lennon seemed to be a man with a strong personality, and he didn''t seem like one who


    would hit women.


    "Why did you suddenly call me?" Curious, Emily asked.


    After Ariah thought for a moment, she said directly, "Emily, there''s something I''d like to ask of you."


    "What do you want me to do? I''ll definitely help you with it."


    Although Emily agreed to her request so quickly, Ariah knew that Emily would definitely hesitate


    once she told her about it.


    As Ariah held her phone in one hand and her knees in the other, she continued, "Emily, there''s no


    news from Jimmy at all."


    Surprised, Emily asked. "Jimmy hasn''t returned yet?"


    "No." "Didn''t you call him?"


    "I tried to call, but his phone was turned off."


    Then, Emily seemed to be able to guess what Ariah was trying to ask for.


    Slowly, Ariah''s voice sounded from the other end of the phone, "Lennon knows Camden, right? I


    was wondering if you could ask Lennon to give Camden a call to sound him out."


    In fact, she wanted to see if anything had happened on Camden''s side.


    The one that Emily was most unwilling to seek help from was Lennon. If it were someone else who


    had asked her to seek help from Lennon, she would have definitely turned their request down in


    one fell swoop.


    However, it was Ariah who had to beg her for help.


    Which was why she could not refuse.


    A momentter, Emily nodded. "Okay, I''ll ask..."


    "Really?" At that moment, Ariah was overjoyed. As a matter of fact, she didn''t expect Emily to agree


    to help. After all, Emily disliked Lennon, so Ariah didn''t expect Emily to agree immediately.


    "But I have to remind you that even if I were to go and seek help from him, he may not be willing to


    help."


    "Alright, I understand." Hurriedly, Ariah nodded.


    After Emily hung up the phone, she hesitated for a moment. In the end, Emily gritted her teeth as


    she lifted the nket and got out of bed.


    It was already midnight, and the entire vi was quiet. There was only a dim light in the corridor, and


    as Emily walked on the wooden floor, it made a creaking sound, which sounded a little creepy.


    Quickly, she came to the door of the study and saw that there was light inside.


    Presumably, Lennon had not slept yet.


    Then, Emily hesitated for a moment before she knocked on the door.


    In the study, Lennon heard the knock and raised his eyebrows slightly.


    "Come in," Nonchntly, he answered, but he didn''t even put down the book in his hand, nor did he


    even lift his gaze.


    After the door of the study was pushed open, Emily entered the room with a faint fragrance.


    However, Emily remained silent even after she entered the study. It was only then that Lennon


    looked up and saw that she was standing not far away from his desk in a white nightgown with her


    long hair draped over her shoulders.


    For a moment, Lennon''s eyes fell on Emily, but he then withdrew them and turned to look at the


    book in his hand. "What''s the matter?"
