Joseph was anxious and frightened. He called Ashley again, but her phone was off.
"Her phone is turned off?"
Joseph's back was covered in cold sweat.
If something happened to Ashley, he wouldn't have to return home. He didn't know how to explain it to Valentin.
Lester had strong observations. While looking for Ashley in the crowd, he took out his mobile phone and decided to call the accompanying bodyguards and ask them to bring some people to find Ashley.
Unexpectedly, he just took out his cell phone and received a call from his brother, George Pliskin.
Lester wondered, 'Why did George suddenly call me?'
He swiped the screen to answer the phone. "George."
"It's me. I'm Ashley!"
The girl's clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the call.
Lester was stunned. "Ashley?"
As soon as he spoke, Joseph, Jaden, Bryce, and Miranda, who were looking for Ashley, immediately gathered around him.
"Is a call from Ashley?" Joseph was anxious, staring at Lester.
Lester nodded. "Yes. It's her voice."
Joseph breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. Ashley's sudden disappearance almost gave him a heart attack. His heart was really scared.
Fortunately, Lester connected with Ashley.
Jaden, Bryce, and Miranda also felt relieved when they heard that.
Lester took down his phone from his ear and glanced at the screen. It was a call from George, but why was Ashley speaking?
"Ashley, why didn't you call me on your mobile phone?"
"Oh, my phone is out of battery and turned off," Ashley sighed. It was unlucky. "Didn't everyone get dispersed by the crowd just now? I was pushed a little far away and couldn't find you when I turned around.
"My mobile phone was in silent mode, and I didn't receive any calls from you. Then it ran out of power and turned off. I met a man on the roadside who looked a lot like you. He recognized me, said he was your eldest brother, and came to Manditus to see you."
Ashley would not easily believe strangers' words, but that man had Lester's number in his mobile phone contacts.
She dialed it and actually got through.
After listening to Ashley's explanation, Lester rubbed his forehead and thought, 'George came to Manditus. It seems that he already knew that Ashley might be our sister who had been lost since childhood.'
"Ashley, where are you now? Joseph and I will go find you right away."
Ashley answered, "I'm next to a swan-shaped lantern."
Lester looked over.
This swan-shaped lantern was a famous landmark nearby. It was indeed far away from where Lester was now. Ashley had actually been pushed over there by the crowd.
After hanging up, Lester immediately led Joseph and others there.
Walking to the swan lantern, they saw Ashley talking to a man.
The man was tall and handsome with outstanding facial features. He wore a well-tailored black suit. His face seemed to be stained with frost and snow, carrying the coldness of being superior and indifferent.
Even though George looked cold and indifferent, his perfect face, as if carefully carved by the creator, attracted many women to look at him frequently.
His height and temperament were outstanding among the crowd.
The person next to George was a man who looked like an assistant.
The assistant lowered his head slightly, looking extremely respectful.
Joseph saw the intact Ashley, and the last trace of worry in his heart disappeared. He wanted to run over, but when he saw the man beside Ashley, he stopped.
However, Joseph had always been casual. He just paused a second and then ran towards Ashley.
"Ashley, I finally found you! Fortunately, you are okay. Otherwise, how could I explain to Valentin?"
