Andrew immediately took out his phone to call. Just when the call was about to be connected, Alex's phone rang. He glanced at it and realized that it was from Sabrina. He instantly picked it up and said, "Why are you calling me at this time, Sabrina? I..."
He was just about to tell Sabrina that he had found Jane when Sabrina's voice came from the other end of the line. "There's something that I forgot to tell you, Alex. Just now when I was taking a nap in the afternoon, I was woken up by a bad dream, which reminded me of what I needed to tell you."
"What is it? What dream?"
"I dreamt of Jane jumping off a cliff. Four months ago when the old Master Shaw came to force me into giving my kidney to Selene, I had the exact same dream that Jane chose to jump off a cliff after being left with no other choice."
"What are you trying to say?"
"Alex," Sabrina continued in a depressed voice. "When Jane called me half a month ago, I could tell from her tone back then that she doesn't intend on running from you any longer. If that's the case, the possibility o f you finding her would be much bigger compared to before, but..." 1
She sighed. "But that also means that Jane is
planning to face you off, which means that the day you find her might just be the day that she loses all hope and choices. Don't... Don't you dare push her into killing herself. If you do, I am going to hunt you down for the rest of my life, or until your death! Remember, Alex Poole! It was you! It was you who chased Jane out; it was you who left her with no chance to survive; i t was you who didn't treasure all the things that she has done for you! That ex-girlfriend of yours? She is a wh*re! You threw your lover out for a woman that you haven't seen for the past ten years! You were the one who was merciless at the very beginning! If you force her into killing herself, I'll kill you!"
Sabrina's words had shook Alex to the core as he suddenly realized that Sabrina was right. He had been looking for Jane for four months, traveling back and forth from Kidon City to the north-eastern region, from the north-eastern region to South City, and then from South City back to the north-eastern region. He had invested enormous manpower in each of the searches but could not find a single trace. However, he somehow managed to find Jane after merely half a month. What did that mean? It meant that Jane was not hiding from him any longer. Did that mean that she planned to fight him with everything she has, including her own life? Alex's heart immediately sank at the thought.
"I understand! I am here to look for my wife, not to kill her! Of course I wouldn't let her jump off a cliff.
Besides, all things aside, I don't want any conflict with you either. Relax, she will be perfectly fine, whether I decide on bringing her back or not!" Alex promised sincerely.
"As long as you know what to do!" she said, before hanging up.
Sabrina had not been sleeping well lately, nor could she eat well. It happened to be their rest day and Sebastian took Aino with him for food at her mother, Gloria's, place; while she stayed home alone due to the lack of appetite and feeling ill. After having some soup at noon, she went for a nap, as she felt sleepy all the time.
