059 The Missing Case

Sebastian’s POV

“What do you mean she didn’t make it home?”

I barely made it to my office when I got a call from Jack, asking if Ava spent the night with me. Like, why would she? She has never spent the night at any place besides home, including mine. She was that fragile a doll.

“You picked her up, so why didn’t you take her back home?!” Jack instantly explodes, shouting at the top of his lungs, “How could you be so irresponsible?! Don’t you know how dangerous it is for her out there?!”

I want to tell him that Ava is her own person and a grown–up now, but this is not the right time.

“I’m on this,” I tell him instead, “I’ll get back to you.”

I put Alfred on the phone next, but he told me he put Ava down at the Fuller’s Villa, and he literally watched Ava go in. So either Jack Fuller lied about her returning home, or she came out on her own after Alfred left, for some reason.

Jack Fuller would never joke about Ava’s safety.

I tried Ava’s phone, and of course, nothing came up. If she’s reachable, Jack won’t be this frustrated. I tried Gabriel, but he was as stunned as I was. Apparently Jack called him right after the phone call with me.
