Rainie was stunned, but her eyes were determined.
Initially, she did not think that someone was plotting against them. However, it seemed that Thomas' disappearance probably had something else to do with it.
"Mrs. Song, should we inform Mr. Ye about this?"
"Yes."
After all, Rainie could not act alone, so she nodded when she heard the bodyguard's suggestion. She felt uneasy, but she was determined.
Who on earth did this?
Perhaps they had been closely monitored by others the moment they arrived. However, other than Mango and Nathaniel, the only people who knew that they were here were the military.
Did the military want to get rid of Thomas?
This idea made her shiver.
If it was true, then Thomas was really in danger.
At this thought, she quickly gave Mango a call.
On the other hand, Mango woke up because her phone was ringing. She was slightly taken aback when she saw that it was Rainie, but she quickly picked it up.
"Rainie, have you arrived? How's the situation over there? How are you feeling?"
Mango had too many questions to ask. She wanted to know what had happened desperately when she picked up Rainie's call.
On the other hand, Rainie was touched.
She whispered, "I've arrived at the guest house, but something strange happened."
Then, she told Mango about what had happened.
Mango frowned slightly when she thought about this.
This was not a good sign.
She immediately thought of Carmel.
After all, Carmel was introduced to her by Brantley. He had once been a soldier, so did all of this have anything to do with the military?
Perhaps the military want to kill Desmond and get rid of Thomas?
But why?
Well, Desmond's violent behaviour was worth the military's attention, but what about Thomas?
Why was Thomas being targeted?
Was it because he discovered something?
Many questions surfaced through her mind.
"Rainie, stay still. Call Nathan and my cousin, and they will be here soon. You can discuss with them. I know you are anxious and worried about Thomas, but you should believe me. With them, you have a better chance of finding Thomas."
"I understand. By the way, how's it going on your end?"
Rainie had never thought that a weak woman like her would come to the battlefield one day. Despite so, everything she did for Thomas was worthwhile.
Mango also informed her about the situation at her side. At this time, she couldn't treat Rainie as an ordinary woman, let alone a superstar. After all, it seemed that there was a connection between the two incidents.
After hearing Mango's words, Rainie didn't dare act rashly.
Then, Rainie hung up the phone after both of them had chatted briefly. On the other hand, Mango was also deep in thought.
Who exactly was Carmel Liu?
She couldn't help but gave Brantley a call.
Brantley would have attended Lebanon's wedding, However, he couldn't make it because of some urgent matters. Now that Mango thought of it, Brantley was already retired, so what exactly was he busy with?
However, no one answered the phone.
Suddenly, Mango couldn't help but feel uneasy.
She immediately called the people in the house, and the butler quickly answered the phone.
"Madam."
"Is my grandfather here?"
At this thought, Mango quickly said, "Don't do anything first. Take good care of the house. I will call you later if there's anything."
"Yes, Madam."
The butler hung up the phone and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
There was a stranger who was standing behind him, and he was threatening the butler with a dagger. Upon ending the call, the man released his grip and said coldly, "No matter what order Mango gave you, you must inform me in time. Do you understand?"
"I get it."
The butler quickly nodded, and his face turned pale.
The man was very satisfied. He put away the dagger and looked around before quickly leaving The Ye's mansion.
Meanwhile, Mango directly called Ned.
Ned was running Nathaniel's business abroad, and he was also the closest person to Mango.
When Ned saw that Mango was calling him, he paused slightly and quickly answered.
"Madam, what can I do for you?"
"How much do you know about Carmel?"
Upon hearing this, Ned was startled.
Carmel Liu?
Why did Mango mention her?
Carmel never came back since the last time she was out on a mission. Could it be that there was news about Carmel's whereabouts?
Ned was excited at this thought.
"Madam, is there any news about her?" "Yes, but it's not good news. Carmel wanted to kill
Desmond, but she hurt me. In addition, she is likely to arrange someone to kidnap my youngest son. Now that Lucas is missing, Brantley is so worried that he fainted and was sent to the hospital. So are you going to protect Carmel, or tell me about her situation?"
Mango didn't want to force Ned. She knew Ned's feelings for Carmel, but now she couldn't help but ask.
