Upon hearing that his daughter was safe, Lachlan felt a slight sense of relief.
"What decision do I need to make? What's the situation over there?" he asked with concern.
The thought of his daughter being in the hands of Wicked Bone made his heart feel like it was being squeezed by a hand.
Summer lowered her voice and briefly explained the situation on her end, including what she needed to do.
"Nora, come here, it's your dad! Say something," Summer called out at the end. Nora had been pretending to be clueless but when she heard Summer say it was her dad on the phone, her eyes lit up.
The next second, after Summer brought the phone closer, Nora hesitated for a moment and lowered her voice, saying, "Daddy..."
On the other end of the phone, Lachlan's whole body trembled as he heard his daughter's voice, and excitement appeared on his face.
"Good! Nora, be a good girl!"
"Listen to this auntie and pretend to be ignorant. Understand?"
Lachlan rarely spoke to his daughter in such a serious tone.
"Mmm! I understand."
Nora nodded obediently and agreed softly.
"Good! My precious girl! Daddy will be there soon, and everything will be fine!"
"Give the phone to auntie."
Lachlan said.
After listening to what Summer said, he knew that time was limited on his side as well, so he couldn't talk much with Nora.
Knowing that his daughter was safe for now was enough!
"Summer, thank you! Let's cut to the chase. What did you mean by saying I need to make a decision?"
Lachlan asked in a deep voice.
Summer lowered her voice and said, "Master, when I mentioned using Wicked Bone's Soulsearching Art on Nora, it definitely means that there will be a result. In other words, in order to prevent him from suspecting and harming Nora again, we probably need to provide him with some breakthrough and useful information. Master, do you understand what I mean?"
Upon hearing this, Lachlan's expression changed several times, and he took a deep breath, saying, "I understand..."
"Mmm! In that case, Master, you need to give me some useful information about the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant's clue that is enough to convince Wicked Bone. We must make him believe that I truly used the Soulsearching Art on Nora."
Summer spoke seriously.
With her words, Lachlan clenched his teeth.
To be honest, at this moment, he felt a hint of uncertainty in his heart.
He even doubted if Summer had been released from her soul contract with Wicked Bone and had betrayed him.
At this moment, he was being questioned about the whereabouts of the Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant.
However, this time, even with doubts, Lachlan had no other choice.
He didn't dare to imagine the consequences if his daughter had truly been subjected to the Soulsearching Art.
