Silly Bride

Chapter 354

David wasn’t sure about James’ and Greta’s operation. Nevertheless, since that matter now involved Lisanne’s safety, David had to visit the Special Task Force no matter what that day.“Okay. Leave that matter to me. In the meantime, you can try contacting your friend’s family members to see if you can find out any information.”With that, he turned to give orders to his subordinates before dialing Special Task Force’s office number.As he was one of the staff members, his call could be directly connected to James’ line.He gave James an account of the important events of that day’s case and proceeded to inquire about Lisanne’s whereabouts.Unfortunately, David didn’t receive a conclusive answer from James because their conversation over the phone didn’t last long.Taking in that scene, Winnie knitted her brows.She instinctively met Xavier’s eyes.

It seemed like he had another objective.She couldn’t help but knit her brows. “Why else are you looking for him? He’s parking the car and will be here soon.”James replied grimly, “There is something I need to discuss with you
