Chapter 217: Chapter 159 Murray Is Missing
"What? Is he busy now?" Nina asked in surprise.
"His phone is off." Darkness gathered in lissa’s eyes. What is Murray doing?
Murray had promised that he would co to pick her up but now she couldn’t even contact him. What happened?
"Maybe it’s out of battery," Nina comforted.
"Let’s wait for him here for a while. He will co over when he’s done." lissa nodded.
They sat down on the sofa. lissa stared at the door.
"lissa, don’t worry. Maybe he wants to give you a surprise and he will suddenly show up."
Seeing lissa’s disappointed look, Nina patted her shoulder.
"OK," lissa said faintly, looking a little absent-minded.
Sohow, she felt uneasy as if sothing terrible was about to happen.
lissa thought for a while and called Alex.
"Hello, Ms. Eugen." Alex’s voice ca from the other end of the phone.
lissa pursed her lips and asked, "Is Murray in the company now?"
"No. Mr. Gibson did not co to the office today. Is he not with you?" Alex asked in surprise.
"What? He didn’t go to work?" lissa’s heart sank. "Are you sure?" She asked in worry.
"Yes," Alex said firmly and nodded.
In fact, Murray had an appointnt with a client today, but Alex didn’t see Murray co to the company. Alex called Murray but Murray’s phone was off.
Alex had thought that today was a very important day because Murray would get engaged today, so Murray would accompany lissa. Murray turned off his phone so that no one could disturb them.
So Alex was very confused when he received the call. "Ms. Eugen, I thought Mr. Gibson was with you and I even canceled today’s appointnt with a client. So you are not together, right?"
"No, if you see him or if you have any news of him, please inform
imdiately." She took a deep breath, looking a little bit stiff.
"Alright. Mr. Gibson might have sothing urgent to do. I’ll get soone to look for him. I’ll inform you imdiately if there’s any news," Alex said.
Hanging up the phone, lissa got nervous.
"What is it?" Nina asked worriedly.
"He’s not in the company." lissa frowned.
The uneasy feeling grew stronger and stronger.
Where did Murray go?
He said that he was going to the company this morning, but now he was nowhere to be seen. Even his phone was turned off.
Murray was not the kind of person who did not give an explanation if sothing urgent happened. How could he be missing without any reason?
And today is such an important day!
Did sothing happen to him?
Thinking of this, lissa jumped to her feet, "I’ll go out and find him."
"I’ll go with you." Nina followed her.
lissa had no ti to change out of her gown. So she raised her skirt and walked out.
"Wait for ." Nina chased after her and pulled lissa. "lissa, calm down. Do you know where to find Murray?"
lissa shook her head, and then a thought flashed through her mind.
She quickly took out her phone and dialed Anthony’s number.
"Ada, you get engaged today,didn’t you? Why do you call
now? Aren’t you afraid that your husband will be jealous?" Anthony joked.
lissa frowned and said urgently, "Anthony, please help
locate a mobile phone number as soon as possible."
"Huh?" Hearing lissa’s cold and serious voice, Anthony was a little surprised. "What number is so important?"
"I have no ti to explain to you. Tell
the result as soon as possible!" lissa said coldly.
After hanging up the phone, lissa sent Anthony the phone number of Murray.
Soon, Anthony replied to her, "He’s near the Bright Mountain on the outskirts. That’s all I know."
The Bright Mountain?
lissa’s face turned colder. Why is Murray there?
Why did he go to such a far place? Was it for sothing important?
Or ... Did sothing happen to him?
lissa pulled Nina, took a taxi, and went straight to Bright Mountain.
"The Bright Mountain is very large. Is there a specific location?" The taxi driver looked back at lissa with surprised and confused eyes.
Why did this beautiful woman go to such a remote place dressed up?
"Just drive in that direction first. We’ll tell you the specific location later," lissa said with a frown.
After that, lissa texted Anthony, "Can you give
a more specific location?"
Ten minutes later, Anthony replied, "I’m sorry, Ada. I tried my best, but I couldn’t do it."
...
At the hospital.
Murray looked at the woman lying on the bed and frowned.
Was she really Lily?
The distant mory ca back and kept flashing in Murray’s mind.
The flower-shaped birthmark on her shoulder and the way she called him Ray were exactly the sa as Lily back then.
But why did she give him such a strange feeling when she passed out in his arms?
Was she Lily or not?
Murray’s handso face was cold, and his thoughts were wandering.
"Ray," the woman uttered with her soft voice and broke his train of thoughts.
He looked down and saw Ryleigh slowly opening her eyes. Her pale lips moved and she said with excitent and disbelief, "Ray, is it really you? Did you save ?"
Murray lowered his head, his gaze roaming over the woman on the bed. Then he asked with a cold voice, "What is your na?"
Ryleigh struggled to sit up and leaned against the bed. She looked lovingly at the handso man in front of her and said softly, "Ray, my na is Ryleigh. My nickna is Lily."
"Ryleigh?" Murray frowned. This na didn’t ring a bell.
"Yes." Ryleigh nodded, "That’s my na. You can also call
Lily. Ray, we were both kidnapped and locked in a black room. Did you forget all of it?"
Murray’s cold expression changed a little bit.
He was indeed kidnapped and locked up in a small black room. It was true.
"Ray, you must rember , right? Back then, those kidnappers were so fierce and even let the dogs bite us. I was afraid of the dark and you were afraid of the dogs. I said that I would protect you and not let you get bitten." Ryleigh continued.
These mories all ca back.
In that little dark room, Lily hugged him with her small body and comforted him softly, "Ray, don’t be afraid. I have power. I will protect you."
"Lily ... Are you really Lily?" Murray asked.
