Chapter 120: How Did You Find Me?
After leaving Jimmy Hendrick’s office, Abigail noticed the sun was about to rise on the horizon.
She walked with Brody toward the main entrance, passing a few police officers who seemed to have returned from their night patrol.
Abigail glanced at Brody, curious to know how he found her. If she hadn’t calculated it wrong, he appeared five or seven minutes after she sent her text to Sawyer.
If Sawyer received her text and asked Brody to come, he might need around ten or fifteen minutes to arrive here, right? How could he come so fast?
"How did you find me so fast in this place, Brody? I didn’t call or tell anyone I was here," Abigail asked casually, but Brody felt stressed hearing that. He tried to string together the right words to answer her, careful not to expose his boss’s identity as the homeowner.
Brody was not pleased that Sawyer wasn’t honest with Abigail about his identity as the ultimate homeowner of the place she rented. This situation prevented him from freely safeguarding her and made her needlessly suffer in the police office.
He felt he needed to remind his boss to stop hiding his identity. Abigail was intelligent, and she might find out sooner or later. Besides, he felt terrible about lying to her.
"Mr. Sawyer called me and asked if you had arrived home. When I said not yet, he started to worry that something might have happened to you because you also didn’t pick up his phone call or reply to his text..." Brody casually explained.
"I already imagined that he might call you..." Abigail remembered that Sawyer had exchanged phone numbers with Brody.
