Chapter 139

After landing, Katie waited at the airport exit for Thalia to pick her up.

She stood in the cold wind for half an hour without seeing any sign of Thalia. She took out her phone to call her.

But she was met with a cold, mechanical voice: “The number you have dialled is not in service.”

How could it suddenly be out of service? They had spoken just an hour ago.

Katie found this extremely strange.

Had something happened to Thalia?

When the call failed to connect, she immediately opened WhatsApp to video call Thalia.

The call went unanswered until it disconnected automatically.

Katie made five consecutive video calls with no response, and started to worry.

During their earlier conversation, Thalia had said she would reach the airport in about twenty minutes. But now, forty minutes had passed without any sign of her. Phone calls weren’t connecting, and WhatsApp video calls went

unanswered.

Katie didn’t know anyone else in London apart from Thalia.

In her anxiety, Katie suddenly remembered that Thalia had mentioned the name of her law firm and had sent the address in a text message.

It was called Winters & Associates.

Katie immediately searched for the firm online and quickly found its information, including the office landline number.

She dialled the number, but after ringing for a long time, no one answered.

In her panic, Katie had forgotten it was after office hours and there would be no one at the law firm. The call was futile.

Increasingly anxious, Katie had no choice but to call the police.
