Chapter 366: Help Me
Iriya is too angry to answer him back, so she says, "Don't forget that it’s you who came to us. When the Lockwood family falls into someone else's hands, you're not going to get anything!"
"I see, just take your time."
"It's best to do it as soon as possible." Iriya snorts, then pushes open the door of the ward and goes in.
Ryan stares at the person in the ward for a moment, then turns and leaves.
The mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrates a few times. He takes it out of his pocket and answers, "Hello?"
"Oh, I feel so bad. It’s so bad, help... help me..." The familiar voice makes Ryan's pupil contract suddenly.
He holds tightly the phone and trembles uncontrollably. It is a long time before he comes back to earth.
"I know you are listening. What do you want to do?" He tries to calm himself down and asks calmly.
The painful voice for help gradually drifts away, and a vicious voice rings on the other end of the phone.
"You haven't made any progress for so long. Have you forgotten your identity?"
"No, I always keep that in mind." He says word by word, he holds tighter the mobile phone. The sunshine and warmth in his eyes fade a little, leaving only endless gloom.
"It’s best if you remember. I will give you another week, if you still don’t make any progress, well..."
The last sound is especially highlighted, and harsh, with menace and sinister.
Then the phone hangs up.
Ryan doesn't look at the call screen. With a hard wrist, the phone is snapped by half. The fragment of the screen splinters into his palm, and the blood flows out.
After a long time, he doesn't loosen the broken cell phone in his hand, but holds it tighter before leaving this place.
It takes Jamie two days for the red spots to completely fade away, and finally she doesn't have to be pushed down by a certain shameless person to apply the medicine.
However, Jamie still hasn't gotten in touch with Chris these days. He took her to the place where he lives now last time. At that time, the car deliberately made several turns in order to get rid of the people behind it, and it is night, so she didn't pay attention to the route.
As a result, no one can find him unless he comes to her himself.
July is looking for her very diligently but Jozo doesn't take any actions, as if she doesn't know Chris once came here at all.
Jamie has already had some ideas in her heart. Maybe, just as July says, she lost her national emblem and Jozo happened to get it.
Jamie is still puzzled by Jozo's ambiguous words that day. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Who should she trust?
She asks Dan about this question, but Dan says that July is more suspicious, but when she asks him why, he doesn't tell her, just let her guess herself.
How can she guess?
Jamie, who has been troubled by this problem, doesn’t want to think about it anymore and goes to "CR Street" with the research report given to her by the Vice Minister of Design Department last time.
As the name implies, it is a street full of CR stores.
Originally, she was going to ask Wendy to accompany her, but Wendy is busy dealing with the matter of Eddie, so she doesn't bother her.
Jamie has completely forgotten Ryan's reminder that day and devotes herself to the clothing investigation of CR.
She walks into the trade building and looks around, curious about it.
This is her first time to come here, and she is curious about it.
It is said that this street is built after Dan takes office, at the same time as CR changes its name.
CR's former name is the William Group, and Dan changes its name as soon as he takes office. At that time, he was opposed by the company's top staff. What's more, some criticized that he doesn't focus on how to improve the company's performance, but to do some superficial things.
But Dan is not crushed by these voices. Instead, he insists on changing its name. After that, as everyone can see, CR thrives. In the previous days, CR is mainly involved in the clothing industry.
Since Dan takes office, the scope of CR has become wider. Although it is still mainly involved in clothing, it is engaged in jewelry, tourism, catering, tobacco and other industries. All these happened in just a few years.
But these are created by Dan alone. He uses his own ability to change most of the industries in country C into his own properties, and becomes the legend of business circle.
CR...
Jamie looks at the "CR" sign in front of the counter at the main entrance on the first floor of the trade building. It’s shining with blue light with golden edge, restrained but noble, which makes people unable to forget it at first glance.
Jamie has heard the words CR many times. Occasionally, she has seen these two words in the planning book or project case, but she has never been as touched as she is at the moment.
She ponders on these two letters carefully, but it seems familiar to her.
Suddenly, her eyes light up.
She looks at the sign, and a touch of tenderness gradually emerges in her eyes. An indescribable warmth and touch sweep her.
She seems to know what it means.
She takes out her mobile phone, turns on her camera, and takes a picture of the sign.
Looking at the picture, Jamie smiles with satisfaction. Then she finds out the contact person, edits the content, and sends the picture to Dan.
After sending it out, her eyebrow eyes seem to be soaked with honey, sweet and soft.
"Jamie, why are you here?" A soft voice sounds from behind Jamie. She turns around and sees Jozo in a wheelchair coming towards her.
People around her cast curious and sympathetic looks at her, but she seems to be unaware of it. She comes to Jamie with gentle and face and very calm.
Before she knows the truth, Jamie believes Jozo. When Jozo comes over, Jamie looks behind her, but she doesn't see Alma.
"Are you alone? Where's Alma?"
"Alma goes to buy me a drink. I don't want to go there, so I just wait for her here." Jozo says. Her eyes are friendly and kind, and there is no trace of guilty conscience.
It is precisely because of this that Jamie is so entangled. It can only say that Jozo’s acting is too good.
"How about we go and sit over there?" Jozo sees her staring at herself, without showing an impatient look, and points to a dessert shop not far away.
There are many couples sitting in the dessert shop. Jamie and Jozo go in and find a window seat.
Jamie doesn't speak, because there are so few topics between her and Jozo that she couldn't be stupid enough to test her with her brother's whereabouts, so she keeps silent.
Jozo, as if she doesn't mind Jamie being unfamiliar with herself, orders a juice and then asks Jamie what to drink.
"Just lemonade." Jamie says.
"A cup of hot cocoa and a cup of lemon juice, thank you." Jozo says to the waiter, then turns to look at Jamie, "How can you go shopping alone? Where’s Dan?"
