Joshua and Thomas rushed to Luna's hotel early in the morning. The other person being pulled along by Thomas was the groggy Yannie.
The moment he entered, Joshua furrowed his brow and asked, "What happened?”
Luna bit her lip and recounted the incident that happened in the restaurant the night before.
"I thought she fell asleep after an entire night, so I went to rest for a while. I never thought I'd fall asleep like that... When I woke up, I couldn't find her anymore!"
"Don’t worry, she won't go missing."
Thomas furrowed his brow. "I've already gotten people to check on the security
footage of the streets, and my men are sweeping the entire city. We'll find her."
Then, he turned to look at Luna. "Did anything happen last night? Why would she suddenly think of Luke suddenly and drink so much wine?"
"I...think I know why." Yannie carefully raised her hand up like a student caught making a mistake. "Yesterday afternoon, when we were at the ski area playing, we bumped into Denise Hughes. She..."
Yannie was silent for a while before continuing, "She asked me whether I was skiing because of you, Thomas. She also said that a person like me will forever have a distance from you, that no matter how hard I try, I'll never be able to enter your world."
Thomas could not help but furrow his eyebrows at Yannie’s words.
Denise Hughes was at it again.
The last time, Denise and his stepmother brought Yannie to the house and bullied her while he was not around. He had not settled that score with them yet, yet Denise was already attacking Yannie again.
Upon Yannie s words, Luna recalled the incident. "She's right. Yesterday at the ski area, I did see Yannie and Gwen with a stranger."
