As the mystery of Bella's disappearance grew thicker, Theodore's restlessness grew. He had looked for her every hospital in the city, but she wasn't there.
"Where are you?" he choked out in emotion as he stared at her photo.
Theodore had thought he would bring her back soon, but the accident had derailed his plan. Now he had no idea where Bella was. Fear of losing her mingled with regret. He thought he wasn't careful enough and failed to give her proper protection.
"Be safe for me," he whispered, his vision turning blurry.
Ring-Ring-Ring…
The sharp ringing of his phone echoed inside the silent room, jolting him out of his reverie. He looked down at the phone and saw Hugo's name flashing on the screen. Putting the photo aside, he picked up the phone quickly.
"Did you find anything?" he asked urgently.
"We found a man who had caused the accident," Hugo said, "but the other two escaped."
