Chapter 288 Stopping over in Phoenix City

Putting aside the chaotic thoughts of the past, Emily genuinely felt that Michael had grown and become more responsible.

She couldn't help but joke with him. "Shouldn't you be the one lying in the back seat?"

Michael smiled awkwardly, but his eyes were full of fatigue. He didn't say much, and soon after lying in the back seat, he fell asleep, barely drinking any water or looking at the food.

Emily knew that Michael was worried about Veda.

Michael was well aware of the responsibility resting on his shoulders, and he didn't dare to slack off.

If it weren't for his physical condition, he would probably head south non-stop until he found Veda.

Seeing this, Emily took a deep breath, sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and drove south.

She could clearly see that Veda was also heading south. As they moved, so did she.

Fortunately, Veda didn't know that Michael and Emily were already on their way to find her, so her movement speed wasn't fast, and her destination changes were predictable. To ease Michael's burden, Emily decided to rely on her ultimate contact, Abigail.

"What? She ran away from home again?" Abigail was helpless upon hearing the news. "That's what happens with rich kids, no sense of organization or discipline, doing whatever they please! But how many things in this world go according to one's wishes? Especially for unfortunate people like us... it's just pitiful!"

Hearing this complaint, Emily knew that Abigail had encountered some trouble at work again.

But she didn't have time to console Abigail now, so she hurriedly said. "Abigail, do me
