The face in the photo looked strangely familiar.

At that moment, the image in the photo overlapped with a scene that had just flashed through Ray’s mind.

In the next second, Ray slammed on the brakes and came to a stop.

He stared at his phone’s lock screen, his expression a mix of confusion and surprise.

Hugo glanced sideways at him, frowning slightly. “What’s up?”

“The person on your lock screen–is she your girl?” Ray asked quietly, looking at him.

Hugo looked at the photo on the lock screen. It was Scarlett, her eyes half–closed, hair falling casually, looking fresh and captivating. After a moment, Hugo turned back to Ray. “Is there a problem?”

A scene from the restaurant replayed in Ray’s mind. He pressed his lips together, pondering for a few seconds before speaking. “If I’m not mistaken, I saw her at the restaurant earlier… She’s the beauty I mentioned.”

Hugo’s eyes widened as he looked at Ray, asking in a low voice, “Are you sure?”

Ray glanced at the photo again. “I’d like to say I’m not sure, but with a face and aura like that… it’s hard to mistake.”

Without another word, Hugo pushed open the car door and ran back.

The car hadn’t gone far, and the restaurant wasn’t too far away either.

Ray stayed in the car, watching Hugo’s retreating figure through the rearview mirror, a hint of complexity flashing in his

eyes.

After a few seconds of hesitation, he turned the car around and followed the trail…

Back at the restaurant, Hugo searched every corner but still couldn’t find Scarlett.

His expression grew anxious.

“Ray, did you see where she went?” Hugo asked, his voice filled with urgency.

Ray’s gaze was calm. “She might have already left.”

Hugo slammed his fist against the wall. “If I’d been just a bit earlier, I might have seen her!”

Ray scanned the surroundings and noticed a security camera not far from where he had seen Scarlett. It should have

captured her.

He walked straight to the front desk. “I’d like to see the footage from about ten minutes ago.”

The receptionist looked at them. Both men had an air of wealth and importance, but he still followed protocol. “Sir, viewing the footage requires the owner’s permission…”

Without wasting words, Ray took out some cash and placed it in front of him.

The receptionist’s demeanor changed immediately. “Of course, if you’ve lost something, you can view it right now. I’m happy to assist.”

He began searching for the footage.

Hugo and Ray stood by, watching as the footage from ten minutes ago was quickly pulled up.

A young child ran recklessly and fell to the ground, but a graceful figure quickly approached and helped him up.

Even from just a side view, Hugo Hodges immediately recognized her–it was Scarlett Adler.

When she turned around, and he got a clear look at her face, Hugo’s fists clenched tightly at his sides.

It was her!

Indeed, it was her!

She looked well!

She seemed unharmed, and her complexion was quite good!

Seeing this, Hugo felt a mix of anger, urgency, and relief.

But no amount of anger could compare to the relief of knowing she was safe.

“Is this the lady you’re looking for?” the receptionist asked.

“Do you know her?” Hugo inquired.

The receptionist shook her head. “Not really, but she’s dined here twice, and each time she left a generous tip, so she’s

memorable. However, she just paid and left.”

Hugo’s eyes narrowed as he watched the surveillance footage. He asked, “Is there a camera at the entrance?”

“There is, but it broke a week ago and hasn’t been fixed yet,” the receptionist replied.

Hugo’s expression darkened.

At that moment, Ray glanced at the receptionist, picked up a pen and paper from the desk, and wrote down a string of

numbers.

“If this lady comes to dine again, call me immediately!” Ray said, handing over his number and generously placing a stack

of cash on the counter.

The receptionist’s eyes lit up at the sight. “Got it, I understand.”

“And show her photo to your staff. If anyone finds her, there’s an even bigger reward!” Ray added.

The receptionist felt like they were about to strike it rich. “Don’t worry, if she comes back, I’ll call you right away!”

Ray nodded in satisfaction.

Outside.

Hugo leaned against the car, lighting a cigarette.

He glanced at the surveillance camera above. “Ray, how many exits does this restaurant have?” he asked.

“Two?” Ray replied.

Hugo gestured toward the camera above them.

Meri

The restaurant was on the rooftop terrace, with other floors below. When Ray noticed the entrance camera, he realized

something.

He pulled out his phone and called Chris.

After the call, Ray turned to Hugo. “They’re on it, but the roads here are quite complex. It’ll take some time.”
