"You can't even get this right. There goes your bonus." Justin raised his brow.

Bella pulled herself together. "Easy there, lan. What's this about?"

"After Bethany left the hospital the other day, I continued to have eyes on her. Our people watched her get into a white Bentley, and she was in there for a long time."

Bella's heart sank, and she felt unsettled.

Justin asked in an icy voice, "Where did the car take her to?"

"The Bentley didn't go anywhere. It stayed parked for a while and dropped her back to her rented place. Bethany did not go out for the next three days, not even to dump her trash. Our people sensed something wasn't right and broke into the place, only to find that she was missing. She didn't even pack a bag."

Bella asked, "What about her passport?"

"She didn't take any of her personal documents. Somehow, she disappeared out of thin air."

lan's whimpers were clear in his tone. "I have eyes on the airport. She doesn't have money or her passport. Where could she go? She can't possibly smuggle somewhere."

"You must have taken down the white Bentley's license plate, lan. Send the license plate to me later. I'll get Asher to look into the owner in Meridan." Bella held Justin's hand tight. "I doubt things are as simple as they look. Someone is helping Bethany escape. I think we should keep a close eye here, in Savrow, for the next few days at least. I suspect Bethany will come back here."

Justin locked fingers with hers. "She's asking for it by coming back."

"Not necessarily." Despite her feelings, Bella kept a clear head and said, "She took nothing with her. It only goes to show that the one who helped her has the power to send her back to Savrow without a passport. Think about it. Who could pull that off in Meridan and would be willing to help Bethany?"
