Chapter 773 Mommy Won't Believe That

When Zander locked the bathroom door, he made sure there was no sound coming from outside.

He then tapped on his watch a couple of times.

Soon, Zenia's hushed voice came through the watch. "You aren't back yet, Zander?"

Whispering so he couldn't be heard, Zander said, "The bad man is a tough nut to crack. I need more time."

"But if you're not back soon, Mommy would know you're gone," Zenía said nervously.

"If Mommy asks, just tell her I went to play with Jimmie."

"Who's Jimmie?" Zenia asked curiously.

Zander without hesitation lied. "It's a friend I made here in Grester. Just tell Mommy that. Don't change the

story!"

Zenia, however, was quite hesitant. "We've only been in Grester for a few days, and we've mostly been at the hotel. How then could you have made a new friend? Mommy won't believe that."

"Just do as I say. I'll be back once I've dealt with the bad man," Zander said earnestly.

Then, Lindsey's voice came through on Zenia's end, curiously asking, "Who are you talking to, sweetie, and
