"I grew up in a small family, so I don't understand the rivalry between prominent families like yours. But you put aside the Lynches' huge family business for so many years to follow Theo. You should know best in your heart why that is."
Munchkin was gone so suddenly that there was no surveillance footage that captured the scene or a witness. In that case, I had all the reasons to suspect that this was the doing of the Lynches.
Although I said these words because Mason had agitated me, I was definitely not saying it without any basis.
Seeing Mason's gaze deepen, I figured he could more o r less figure something out.
After a pause, he looked at me and said, "I'll definitely find Munchkin."
This was a guarantee and words he was saying to himself.
I pursed my lips and said no more.
Tyler called me and asked where I was, so I gave him the address of the hotel.
After hanging up the phone, I looked at Mason and had nothing left to say. I got up and left the cafe.
Theo followed me but I ignored him.
As I needed to wait for Tyler, I returned to the hotel and sat in the lobby on the first floor.
A dazzling figure like Theo was eye-catching no matter where he went. When he sat in the lobby’s lounge area, he was inevitably going to turn heads.
I did not say a word, and neither did he. We remained silent the whole time.
I pursed my lips and smiled at him. "No. I'm just really worried about Munchkin."
His broad palm rested on the top of my head as he comforted me. "Don't worry, we’ll find him."
As soon as we got to the room, Carlson received a call saying that a Samoyed dog was found. The person was asking if we would like to go and take a look.
We had to take a look, of course. We quickly rushed there by car.
The location was at an abandoned factory in the suburbs of South Vasetine. Halfway there, it started drizzling, making the road muddier and more difficult to travel on.
When we arrived at the factory's gate, a middle-aged man greeted us with a few umbrellas. He said to Carlson, "We've almost turned the whole South Vasetine upside down in the past two days. Although we didn't find the child, we found this Samoyed dog. I s this the dog the child took with him when he went missing?"
