"Okay!"
Just a second after sending the message, Michael received a reply from Lucy。
The response was as usual, cold and straightforward, without inquiring why Michael was investigating the woman.
Michael noticed a little girl selling flowers in the distance.
"Leaving her alone like that probably upset her."
Michael laughed and went over to buy a flower. He decided to go back and make amends to Tessa.
Just after he bought the flower, his phone rang. He took a look and it was Yulia.
As soon as he picked up, Yulia's panicked voice came from the other side.
"Michael, something... something happened! You need to come quickly! Hurry!"
"What happened? Speak clearly! Are you already here with Tessa?"
Michael's heart sank with a sense of foreboding.
There was a hint of a sob in Yulia's voice.
"I was with Tessa just now. Suddenly, some foreigners rushed over and dragged Tessa into a car! I couldn't even shout out before the car drove off! What... what should we do now?"
