He admitted that he was scared.
Confused.
He felt the pain.
The fear of knowing she was in trouble, like sea waves flooding towards him, made him lose control more than he thought he would.
Every time he thought of when he found her, her hair disheveled, her cheeks swollen and red, her head covered in bloodstains...
His throat felt like it was being strangled.
All the blood in his body began to flow backwards.
He could give up the financial group and everything else but her.
Otherwise, what was the point of everything he was doing now?
"..." Evelyn stared blankly, looked into his eyes, and nodded hesitantly.
She moved her lips, just about to tell him she was fine when Mr. Gomez entered.
"Miss Sherman, here's a replacement SIM card and a new cell phone for you." Mr. Gomez stepped forward and handed the cell phone to Evelyn.
Then, he leaned towards Chester's ear, lowered his voice, and said something.
