Mike felt a sharp object pressing against his waist. Although he could not see it, he knew it was unpleasant.

Mike hesitated momentarily and cleared his throat. Then he answered the call and put it on speakerphone without a second thought, “Hello, what’s the matter? Is there any news from Lily? Did she find the person? Did she locate the organization? Has she rescued my son?”
