Antonio sighed, "I'll think of a way to see if I can get news from Carl."

If there is a way to find Carl's whereabouts, there should be news about Lily...

Robert stopped Antonio firmly, "Anthony, if you know something, please tell me, I would rather know the truth and start to think of a solution, than be kept in the dark and worry about it like a headless chicken."

"You will be even more sad if you tell me. Get out of the way. You use your method, and I use mine. We each find our own."

Mr. Marquis thought for a long time, and felt that it would be relatively easy for him to let Robert discover the truth by himself. As he had never been a funeral reporter, he really didn't know how to speak.

will be more sad?

The elder brother's heart seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss, "You mean Lily's situation is not optimistic? How do you know? What method do you use to find out their whereabouts?...What about Karl? Is it risky for him to go to Lily? Are you in danger?" Now that he knew Lily's whereabouts, why didn't he tell him earlier?He can send more people to rescue Lily!

Antonio also didn't know if Hockley had taken a risk. Lily Robert's death might be accidental, man-made, or something from the dark world. Before seeing Lily Robert's body, he also Can't judge.

He planned to go to Polly again and ask her to help calculate Carl's current situation. Who knew what happened to Hockley and lost contact?Maybe his disappearance had nothing to do with Lily Robert at all.

The hand of the church can't reach into Romania at all. They have too little control over that place. It is the paradise and holy place of the dark world, just like the significance of the Vatican to the church.

"Anthony, please, tell me everything you know! The missing one is my sister, the other is my brother-in-law, and I have a younger sister who is pregnant!"

If something happened to Karl, he would really be ashamed to face Annie, because he asked Karl to help, and he knew that Karl actually wanted to be with Annie, watching his child grow up day by day, and looking forward to the baby with his wife When the day came, he still threatened and lured him to come and help him.

The pleading of a tall and strong man with tears in his eyes is really sad, Antonio wiped his face, "Okay, you sit down first, I'll tell you."

The two sat down on the sofa respectively, and Antonio decided to express euphemistically. Compared with the man he saw at Anne's wedding, the man in front of him was hardly the same person. His tall figure had lost weight rapidly in the past few months. He looked like a bamboo stick, his cheeks were slightly sunken, his frowning brows, sallow complexion, and thick dark circles under his eyes made him look a little sick.

Annie's suspicious inquiries several times were fooled by the two men, but Robert's state could not be hidden from Antonio who knew the details.

This is also the reason why Antonio has been dragging his heels and dare not explain to Robert. This man is able to sleep well every few days because he has used some small tricks here, otherwise his body will definitely not be able to last this time. .

"I have news from here that Lingmei probably won't be found."

This was the only news about Lily that Robert had gotten for such a long time, besides the necklace, so he eagerly leaned forward and asked repeatedly.

"What do you mean can't be found? She was kidnapped by traffickers? Do you know where she was kidnapped?"

As long as there is news, he will continue to pursue it. It doesn't matter if he is kidnapped and sold by human traffickers. He will persevere in his search, and one day he will be able to bring his sister home.

"...not kidnapping..." Antonio found it cruel and difficult to personally break the expectations of a man who expected his family to come home, especially since he was very sensitive to people's emotions.

He simply got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window without facing Robert, making it easier for him to say the news that was definitely bad news for the man: "It's not kidnapping, Lingmei has probably returned to the embrace of God."

If it's an accident, finding the body depends on luck, because no one knows where Lily Robert's accident happened; if it's man-made, generally speaking, if the police haven't come to notify the body recently, it will be difficult to find it again, two or three months By the time, the corpse should have begun to rot; if it was a dark creature... then it would be even more impossible for people to find clues. They wanted to hide their existence so that no one would notice anything strange.

After speaking, Antonio could feel the sudden drop of air pressure behind him, and the oppressive and silent atmosphere spread in the study room. He kept looking out the window, and didn't turn his head to look at the man who was about to collapse.

It took a while for Robert to understand what Antonio meant.

He propped his forehead, closed his eyes, and felt very tired, so tired that he even got up and gave his noble friend a few big fists, and told him not to curse his sister casually. He didn't have the strength to sit on the sofa normally For the first time, the elder brother of the body lost the strength to sit upright.

For a long time, Robert still closed his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What about Karl?"

"I don't know, I'm going to ask a friend." But last time they broke up badly, he estimated that Polly might not be so easy to talk to this time.

There is still a suffocating silence in the room...

"Your friend is very energetic in Romania?" Do you know why the message can't be found?

Antonio finally turned around and no longer faced the window, but he still didn't go to Robert's side, and answered Robert's question from a distance. The negative emotions in that man were too strong, which made him feel uncomfortable: "No, she It uses a special method, and the possibility of error is very small."

"What special method?" The matter is about his sister and brother-in-law, and Robert upholds the spirit of breaking the casserole and asking the bottom line, so he must figure it out.

Antonio sighed, and finally took two steps back, and helplessly said to the strong man with red eyes: "My friend, I will not lie to you, but the answer is hard for ordinary people to believe, are you sure you want to know?"

"Tell me."

"She's a...witch."

Robert was expressionless and didn't speak. He didn't know what to say. News about his sister and brother-in-law... Antonio said he wanted to ask the witch?

Although Rob had a blank face, his psychological fluctuations were very strong, and Antonio could sense the distrust of his brother, or in other words, he was more likely to use this to comfort himself that Lily and Carl were fine.

witch?ha!

Antonio wanted to sigh again, he stretched out his hand, and the palm of his hand glowed with white light, and the cup placed in front of Robert flew into his hand, "Some people really have special abilities in this matter."

If he can't convince Robert to believe him today, it is foreseeable that Robert will drop everything and go to Romania to find someone in person.

Annie has already lost a sister, and her husband is currently missing. He can't let Annie's only remaining brother be in trouble.

Robert's eyes widened, and he looked at the remaining cups and plates on the table in disbelief, and then at the porcelain cup in Antonio's hand.

Then, Mr. Marquis saw that tall and strong man suddenly covering his face and crying.

"Lily..."

Robert could no longer lie to himself.

Antonio put the cup on the desk, turned his back to the sad man and began to observe the scenery outside the window. He really hated to face this sad situation.

"No, I didn't believe Lily was dead until I saw Lily's body."

After a long time, Antonio heard his friend say this.

"Can you take care of Annie for me? I'm going to Romania again." He wanted to find his sister and brother-in-law and bring them back safely.

"Haven't you ever thought that you are the only family member left by Annie's side?" Antonio had expected this situation a long time ago, "Let's not talk about whether it is useful for you to go in person, what if something happens to you? What do you want Annie to do?" manage?"

Thinking of his youngest sister who was still pregnant, Robert closed his eyes hard, but finally changed his mind.

"I don't need to go to Romania, but please take me with you when you go to find a witch." He wants to see how the witch finds someone with his own eyes, hear the situation of his relatives with his own ears, and personally verify whether the so-called witch is credible. .

Antonio took a look at Robert and found that he was very determined and not easy to persuade.

"...Yes, but you have to rest and eat well these few days. We need some physical strength to get to the place we are going to. Don't hold back when the time comes."

When the two men left the study, they had reached a consensus that Lily and Carl would not tell Annie about it.

"You two are going out?" Annie looked at Robert and Antonio suspiciously, and suddenly asked, "What happened? Does it have something to do with Robert being so busy recently?"

After these days of adjustments, Robert's physical condition has recovered a bit, which made Anne no longer so worried, but it still made the girl feel weird that the two of them were going out at the same time. She remembered that Carl went out with Antonio once before a business trip ?

The elder brother continued to lie to cover his younger sister with a paralyzed face, "Well, the previous transnational plan is almost completed, I have to go out and make a final confirmation with the other party."

"Robert is going on a business trip, and I just have something to do, so I'll drop by him and walk together for a while." Antonio added later.

"Oh, will you be traveling for a long time?"

"It depends on how the company's affairs are handled. If you have anything to do, you can ask the housekeeper, and he will contact me."

In fact, he kept the address of a certain church provided by Antonio. If the housekeeper really passed on the news, the people in the church would have a way to contact Antonio.

"Then Antonio, are you coming back?" If not, she will ask someone to prepare some Southampton specialties for him to take away. She has lived here for a while, she is pregnant, and Robert is busy with the company. , There is no way to entertain friends well, so I can only prepare more things to express my heart.

"I'm back. I'm on vacation recently. It's very relaxing here. I like the environment here. I'll come back here to continue my vacation after I finish my work."

"Okay then, go get busy! Don't worry about me, I can pass the time by myself." In this way, there is only myself left in the family, and relatives and friends will leave her temporarily. Ever since she was a child, she has never encountered such a situation. Situation, before parting, feel the breath of loneliness.

"Hmm." Hearing the words of his sister who had no idea of ​​the seriousness of the matter, Robert felt sore and unbearable. He barely made a nasal sound, and hurriedly turned and left with Antonio with his luggage.

The two rushed to the place where the witch Polly was at the fastest speed. Robert looked up at the cliff standing in front of him, and finally understood why Antonio said that he needed to have good physical strength.

"Polly lives up there. Oh, by the way, we had a little disagreement with her when we left last time. Her attitude won't be too good after a while. Don't mind."

"you?"

After thinking about it, he felt that Robert would probably know what happened last time later, so Antonio didn't hide anything, and told Robert quite simply: "Polly admires Hockley's type of man, I hope He was able to stay with her, so we had a bit of an argument."

Want to snatch Anne's husband?

Robert's impression of this witch he had never met before fell to the bottom in an instant.
