Elaine immediately turned on her cell phone after she got her cell phone from the police officer.
Ever since she was locked up in the detention center, she has not been able to touch her cell phone at all. She did not have the opportunity to contact her husband or her daughter at all.
Now, Elaine suddenly felt a very strong grievance when she got her cell phone back.
Her husband and daughter would not know that she had suffered so much inhumane torture and suffering in the detention center for the past two days. 6
However, she would not be able to tell them about all o f the grievances that she had suffered.
This was because Elaine knew that she would probably be killed by the criminals or arrested by the police and locked up in the detention center again if she dared to utter a single word about this matter, s
After she turned on her cell phone, Elaine realized that she received countless text messages on her cell phone. As soon as she clicked into her text messages, she realized that almost every single text message that she received came from her own daughter, Claire.
When she saw that her daughter was very worried about her and that she constantly sent her text messages asking about her whereabouts, Elaine felt
very comforted.
However, at the same time, she also thought of something.
Why didn’t her husband send any text messages to her at all? 7
She had already been missing for two whole days.
Wasn't he in the slightest bit worried about her at all? 7
As she thought about this, Elaine could not help but feel very dissatisfied. She could not help but wonder, 'I really did not expect that old man, Jacob, to be so unaffectionate! I have already been missing for so long but he did not even bother to send me a single text message at all! I will be sure to settle this score with him later!’ 7
At this time, the police officer said, "Stop looking through your text messages. Call your son-in-law and ask him to come and pick you up." 3
