Henry ignored Jacqueline. After coming down, he walked past her and disappeared in the hallway instantly.
Jacqueline looked at his back and her expression was distorted for a moment, then she returned to her normal expression as though nothing ever happened.
Outside the villa, Joe was waiting by the car. When he saw Henry coming out of the house, he quickly opened the back door for him to get into the car.
After Henry got into the car, he pressed his eyebrows and said, "Let's go.”
"Alright," Joe replied and opened the driver's door to get into the car.
Then, the car left the villa swiftly.
During the car ride, Henry was constantly answering calls. He had already taken three phone calls in less than 10 minutes and they were all from the detective's office, mainly to report on Sam's location.
Unfortunately, they only managed to find Sam's accommodation but not Sam in person. According to the firm, it had been three days since Sam had returned to the villa.
Where would Sam go in these three days?
Joe, who was driving, asked, "Mr. Lancaster, since
Sam isn't here, should we still go to his villa?"
Henry pointed at the car door. "Yes, I'll make sure that he's back."
"Okay." Sam nodded and didn't ask further. He focused on driving. 2
Within half an hour, Henry arrived at Sam's villa in Vancouver.
He got out of the car and checked out the villa that was in front of him. Then, he took out his mobile phone to make a phone call to Sam.
At the hospital, Sam heard the phone ring and it interrupted the conversation between him and Yvonne. He took his mobile phone out, saw the caller I D on the screen and he raised his eyebrow unexpectedly.
"What is it?" Yvonne asked silently.
Although she couldn't see, she could sense that something was wrong with him.
Sam smiled, "Nothing much. It's Mr. Lancaster who’s calling."
"Henry?" Yvonne straightened up her body. "Why is he calling?"
"I'm not sure. Let me ask him," Sam said while he answered the phone call.
Needless to say, Henry went ahead and said, "Sam, I'm outside your villa."
Huh?
Sam was dumbfounded for a second. "Outside my villa? What are you doing over there, Mr. Lancaster?"
"Three days ago, I mentioned that I wanted to meet you, Mr. Smith. You refused, so I have no choice but to investigate your whereabouts by myself. Now that I've found you and I'm at your doorstep, don't you want to meet me, Mr. Smith?" Henry said thoughtlessly.
Sam tilted his head down and smiled, "Mr. Lancaster, you're really persistent. You've put in so much effort just to look for me. I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing to still keep hiding at this point. I'll be right there. Please wait for me at my villa, Mr. Lancaster."
Henry snorted and cut off the phone call.
When the phone call went silent, Sam realized something. Then, he checked his phone screen and found out that the call was being hung up.
He shook his head and put the phone down. "You heard my conversation with Mr. Lancaster earlier, right?"
Yvonne moved her lips slightly. "Yes, I've heard. But how did Henry manage to find your other villa? Didn’t you say that he wouldn't be able to find it? Now that h e found it, he should be able to find the hospital soon."
"Don't worry. He won't. My villa isn't located in a secret place. As long as you're mindful, you can find it with a little bit of effort. As for the hospital, I've erased my traces, so it can't be found. Furthermore, who would have known that I stayed in the hospital for three days?” Sam smiled while comforting her.
