Chapter 168

“Guess what will happen next. Henry changed the subject, trying to cheer Josie up.

“Ashley will probably pretend to hurt herself,” said Josie as she rolled her eyes.

Henry was stunned for a moment before the ringing of his phone interrupted him.

It was Thomas…

“Are you a miraculous fortune–teller?” Henry raised his eyebrows.

Josie smiled and shifted her gaze from Henry elsewhere.

Henry’s heart tightened. Now… As long as Josie was happy, everything would be fine.

“Hello?”

“Mr. Gibson… The voice of Thomas on the other side of the phone sounded panicky and trembling.

“Ashley… Ashley is missing.”

“Missing?” Henry frowned. “What happened?”

“I don’t know. I just went out to buy a meal. Mr. Gibson, she didn’t tell me where she was going… Now, I can’t find her. She’s not picking up my calls too.” Thomas was so anxious that he was on the verge of crying.

Josie listened quietly, silently complimenting Thomas‘ acting.

Her prediction was a bit off though. This time, Ashley did not threaten to hurt herself. Instead, she pretended to be missing.

“How long has it been?” Henry asked in a deep voice.

“Ever since she read what Josie… Ms. Yate posted on Twitter… at noon today, Ashley has been feeling down. She then asked me to go and buy her favorite peanut cookies. So, I did. After that… When I came back, she was gone. I looked everywhere and asked a lot of people. She’s nowhere to be found!” said Thomas in a panic.
