Chapter 279

Occupying liis time with work was the only way for Evander to stop thinking about superfluous matters and contain the heartache he would get from his longing for Angeline.

With a torch in liis hand. Nigel followed closely behind and claimed. “Mr. Golding, you've worked really hard. We actually intended to prepare a feast to welcome you.”

“No need to waste time on that.” Evander showed no trace of emotions on liis handsome face. “Just get everyone to get ready for the subsequent packaging procedures will do.”

“Don't worry. Linlow Island may be small, but we will make no mistakes.”

At this very moment, Evander heard a woman's soft voice calling for help. His expression went taut, and he paused in his tracks at once.

“Hold on. Did you hear a voice?” Evander tilted liis head and carefully listened to liis surroundings.

“Voice?” Nigel's face was clouded with bafflement. “Is there?”

Evander was pretty sure he did not mishear things. After all, he had always had a stronger perceptual sensitivity than others.

“Let's split up and look for the source,” he ordered Nigel while wearing a stem look.

Even though he had only heard the voice calling for help once, he somehow felt liis heart lurch, almost as if a hand was gripping it tightly.

Nigel was undoubtedly at a loss. He dared not refute Evander and could only follow the instructions to go the other way and begin the search.

Evander pulled out liis phone from his pocket, turned on the detector, and started looking for a red crowd signal on the mountain.

As he had expected, there was someone else present on the mountain, and that person was not too far away from him.

With that realization. Evander immediately turned on the torch and began searching in that direction.

Not long after, he spotted trample marks on some bushes. Behind, there was a pink suitcase.
