Seeing that Russell didn't bring up the Johnson family, Selena didn't continue the topic either.

"Alright, thank you," she said sincerely.

Russell replied, "She's my friend too. If she's in trouble, it's only right I help. Wait for my update." After saying that, he hung up the phone. Selena put down her phone and clasped her hands together in prayer.

Behind her, the door opened, and Aaron walked in.

He glanced at her worried face, pursing his lips before asking, "Did you just ask Russell for help?"

Selena looked at him briefly before sitting down on the sofa. "Another person means another bit of strength. You and Lucas are both unreliable!"
