At that thought, Yvette calmed down.

"He's just an old friend.Nicole, since I’m back, you don’t need to continue the investigation.How are you doing lately?"

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.

"I’m fine.I was just so worried about your safety.Aunt Quimbey and Aunt Fiona were also worried sick when we lost contact with you.I helped to search for you but couldn’t find any clues.All of a sudden, Lance was hospitalized, and you disappeared, so how can we not be worried? Clayton wasn’t very familiar with the underground business in Atlanta, so he didn’t dare to get involved.I’m so glad you’re okay, Yvette."

Nicole was downcast when she said this.It was easy for Clayton to get involved, but that would disturb their peaceful life and ruin their family.

Nicole was constantly struggling about whether she should get involved and dared not make a decision.

Yvette understood Nicole’s dilemma and sighed.

"Nicole, stop thinking about it.I’m fine now, so don’t worry.It’s already so late, so you should sleep.We can talk tomorrow."

"Okay."

Yvette hung up the phone.She saw her mother’s tired face and felt guilty.

In addition to the guilt, she also hated Sean even more.If it were not for him, Yvette would not end up like this.

"Mom, you should go upstairs and rest too."

Mrs.Quimbey nodded.She could not sleep well when Yvette was missing.

Now that Yvette was home, Mrs.Quimbey was relieved.

"Do you want to contact the police? We’ve made a police report for so many days, so we should give them an explanation."

Yvette pursed her lips and thought about it.

"I'll call them tomorrow.I want to go upstairs and take a shower."

"Okay, go on then."

Mrs.Quimbey did not stop Yvette.

Yvette hugged her mother and went upstairs alone.She sat quietly beside the bed in her familiar room.

Yvette getting to go home was a pleasant surprise after all that happened earlier that night.
