Chapter 616 Shawn’s Whereabouts

"Ma'am, this is your new phone. Waylen gave it to me before he left. Only Mr. Forger has called thus far."

"Which Forger?" I asked.

"Christopher. I told him of your encounter."

Oh, right. I didn't make it to the performance. I took the phone from Anthony. It was the same model I used. Waylen gave me the same phone when I first met Shawn. It was a matching set with Shawn's phone, and this design was exclusive to us. That thought warmed my heart up, but I was still sad.

Anthony left my room. Lying in bed, I thought about how badly hurt Shawn was. I wondered what he was doing, and if he was even alive. Colin hadn't called me once over the last two days, and I didn't know his number. He texted me once, but I deleted the message and blocked him out of annoyance. Yet, now I desperately needed his number.

A few minutes later, a woman outside said, "Ree's awake? I need to see her."

The woman approached me quickly and pulled me into her embrace, tears streaming down her cheeks. "When you didn't show up, I knew you were in danger. It took us days to find you."

I patted May's back. "I'm fine, don't you see?"

May let go of me. "What about Shawn?"

I answered, "He'll be fine."

"Yeah. He's awesome. He'll surely be fine."

I smiled. "You've been watching over me, haven't you?"

"Yeah. I was chatting with the neighbor when Anthony came out and told me you woke up. So, I came."

"Thank you, May," I said.

"We're good friends. I've known you for years, Ree, so you don't have to thank me. I was so worried."

I trusted May the most. "Thanks for watching over me, May."

May smiled. "As I should." She let go of me. "It's good to see you awake. Alfred's mother has fallen ill, so I need to leave in a bit," she said apologetically.

I held her hand and smiled. "It's alright. Go. I'll be here for a couple of days. I'll leave once I find out where Shawn is."
