Hunter felt as though something had crashed into the back of his head.
If Jude Smith and Luke Jones were friends...
This meant that Joshua and Luke-
A chill went down Hunter's spine as he tried to establish this connection in his mind.
He remained motionless for a long while before finally coming to. "Never mind. I'd better get out of here!"
Christopher's car was stuck in traffic for a long time.
On top of that, for some reason, his phone had run out of battery before he could even reach the airport.
By the time he arrived at East 2 gate, twenty minutes had already passed since the meeting time with Jude.
Christopher caught sight of a man standing in front of East 2 gate and holding a backpack from afar.
When the man saw him, he hesitated for a moment, then quickly approached him. "Are you Mr.
Christopher Roberts? I'm Jude Smith."
Christopher nodded and replied, "Yes, I am. I’m so sorry for being late." "Don't worry about it." The man chuckled. After exchanging a few words of welcome, the man handed his backpack to Christopher and said, "Well, since I've accomplished Joshua's task, I'll be off now.”
With that, he turned and strode into the airport.
Christopher furrowed his brows as he watched the man leave.
Why was he leaving as soon as he had arrived? Was this man really Joshua's friend?
If he had claimed to be Joshua's assistant or servant, n o one would be the wiser!
However, Christopher had no time to deal with this. H e returned to his car, clutching the backpack in his arms, and rushed back to Swan Lake Chalet.
All his ingredients were ready, and the only thing missing was the Clinging Root!
