Chapter 211 The Last - Of Her Life.
Owen would not have believed that something had indeed happened to Leonica if he hadn’t spotted her phone, broken on the ground of the location she had sent him.
As he picked it up and examined it, it was clear to him that she had in fact not dropped the phone, like he bad hopes for. Rather someone had deliberately stepped on it, putting a pretty shoe sized hole through the screen.
“Fuck,” He cursed as he placed the phone in his pocket and then scanned the area, trying to see if there were any tracks, any signs of where Leonica might have gone.
He didn’t know how long he spent, but in the end, he found none, and that only fueled the panic growing inside of him.
Realizing that he going in circles wasn’t going to help him out, he decided to finally involve the police. Luckily, he remembered the name of the officer Leonica had told him about, so when he called the station, he simply asked for her.
“Hi, um, I would like to speak to Candace Lane?”
“Agent Lane would be with you shortly, please hold.” The customer service said.
Once again, Owen wasn’t sure how long he waited, running his hand through his hair and cursing the fact that he had chosen today of all days to leave Leonica alone.
He should have been more alert. He should have turned down Alistair job call, he should have stayed, then he was a hundred percent sure none of this would have happened.
“Officer Candace Lane on the line, how can I help you, Sir?”
The voice of the officer he wanted to speak with had snapped Owen out of his little world.
