Chapter 115 RYAN
Today, we decided to stay back at the apartment and finally make use of the pool, which had been lying unattended ever since we arrived. According to Lily, the boys knew how to swim, so I didn't have to worry too much about one of them jumping into the pool, though we still kept a vigilant eye on them.
My phone vibrated in my pocket, and I pulled it out, seeing that Detective Larry was calling. I swiped the receive button and, knowing this conversation would likely involve some colorful language, I got off the lounge chair and moved away from the kids.
"What the f**k is this news I'm reading about Jake?" I hissed into the phone, trying to keep my voice low but failing to hide my irritation. Lily hadn't seen it yet. because she decided to turn off her phone for the rest of the trip, wanting to fully enjoy herself during this vacation.
She somehow believes that every time she turns on her phone, trouble finds her- specifically, trouble in the form of Jake.
"It seems someone tipped him off about our arrival," Detective Larry replied. "But I assure you, we will find him soon. This has escalated from a simple case of impersonation to that of a wanted murderer." The thought of Jake being anywhere near Lily was chilling. "Who did he kill?"

"That isn't something you need to worry about, sir. The murder isn't connected to you or Ms. Urch in any way," he assured me. "But rest assured, we are committed to finding him soon."
This situation was infuriating. "Keep me posted," I said, reaching to disconnect the call, but Larry stopped me.
"Just in case he reaches out to your wife in any way, do not hesitate to let us know immediately," he added.
"I will," I promised before ending the call, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on me.
I scoffed. "For the sake of everyone involved, I hope he doesn't reach out to her, or
