Chapter 303

believe she came up with that excuse to not disturb my life.Sighing, Winnie said, “Granny, don’t let Abel’s words change your mind! My home is always your home. As long as you’re willing, I’ll take you with me even if I settle elsewhere.” …After dinner, Winnie had a good rest.She was woken up by her phone ringing the next morning.Squinting her eyes, she took her phone to discover it was Lucas. At once, she blew her top.“Lucas Marsh! I hope this is urgent. Otherwise, I’ll hunt you down and beat you up! Do you know what time it is? It’s not even eight o’clock yet! I dreamed that I just fell asleep, but you woke me up! I woke up twice—once in my dream, and once in reality! I’m really sleepy!”Lucas sounded rattled on the other end of the line as he pleaded, “Your Majesty, Ms. Garland, I’m really sorry! But please prepare to hear what I’m about to tell you. After my sister discovered what happened to Christopher, she didn’t eat or sleep for the past twenty-four hours. Today, she finally left her room. However, she’s in a bad condition. Christopher’s death came as a terrible blow to her. All she wants now is to find his body. She’s insisting on going to Manchernius herself.”Hearing that, Winnie was wide awake. “Stop her, then. Don’t you know how dangerous Manchernius is? How can you let her go there?”“I know!” Lucas answered. “I’ve hidden her passport and ID card. Without these, she cannot go anywhere. I managed to stop her from going to Manchernius, but I can’t stop her from finding you.”“What?” Winnie sat up. “Where is she going to find me?

I need to go now.”She then answered Lisanne’s call. “Lisanne, where are you? Are you at Garland Group?”On the other end of the line, Lisanne’s hoarse voice rang out. “No. I’m starving, so I’m currently eating. Where are you? I’ll go to you after I finish my food.” She sounded like she had not had a drop of water for a long time.“No need. I’ll come to you.” Lisanne’s voice was weak, so Winnie told her to stay put. “Send me your location, and I’ll come to you now.”“Okay. I’ll wait for you here. I need to talk to you.”“Okay!” After the call ended, Winnie soon received Lisanne’s location.She quickly washed up and left in her car without eating breakfast.…It took Winnie half an hour to arrive at her destination.When she arrived, Lisanne was munching on her pasta hungrily without caring about her image.Afraid that she would eat too much, Winnie told her, “Eat slowly. Did you finish the empty plates? Why are you eating so much in one go?”Lisanne slurped on her soup. “I need to eat to gain energy! Winnie, tell me. Who do you think took Christopher’s body away? Could it be Harold Horton? How do I find him? I need to get Christopher back. You must have a way to send me there, right?”Winnie frowned. “Lisanne, I’m not sure about that, so I won’t be able to provide an answer. However,
