Chapter 110 The Island in the Lake

Liam ended the call with a chuckle and said to me, “She’ll watch over Iddy. Let’s hit the road!”

I just nodded, my mind elsewhere. Sweety had been in trouble since last night, and I had no clue how she was now.

“Hey, I heard the Scott Corporation’s hit a rough patch,” Liam said, throwing a glance my way as he navigated the streets.

I nodded again, and to show I was not just brushing him off, I grunted an acknowledgment.

He did not press on and instead floored it, taking us toward the suburbs.

As we left the city behind, I was itching with questions. However, before I could ask anything, my phone buzzed. It was Officer Jackson.

“Officer Jackson, any news?” I asked as soon as I picked up.

But don’t worry, Ms. Scott, if your person’s with Noah, we’ll get them back.”

I nodded to myself, thanking him over and over.
