Chapter 602 She is Missing
This was when she was filming a movie. She got bored and wanted to listen to music, and Anthony happened to be using it, so he gave it to her.
As she was using it and didn't get a chance to return it to him at the time, so she kept it ever since.
With a smile, she replied, "Yes."
Suddenly, Anthony frowned, and a conflicted expression appeared on his face.
"Evelyn, you don't have to do this. As I said, even if we can't become lovers, we can still be friends. These things..."
"These are yours. I was only borrowing it. Of course, I should return it to you."
Smiling sincerely and genuinely, she continued, "If you want to give it to me as a gift, I'll request a brand new one. I won't be shy with you."
Stunned, it took Anthony a few seconds to understand what she meant.
As young adults, it was obvious that they had to avoid unwanted troubles.
Since it was something he had used before, it had his smell and traces of his existence. If she continued to use it, it would be hard to cut off their ambiguous romantic relationship.
In the future, in case she accidentally used it, he might see it.
Inevitably, it could arouse his emotions and upset him.
So now that she returned everything to him, even if he would give her any gifts in the future, it would just be a gift to her as friends.
As he thought of it, Anthony suddenly understood Evelyn's intention, and he felt a surge of bitterness.
With that, he nodded and took it. "Alright, I understand."
After a pause, he asked, "You haven't answered my question earlier. Who is he?"
Pursing her lips, Evelyn didn't really want to answer the question.
If she could answer him, she would have told him that noon.
After thinking about it, she could only say, "It doesn't matter to you who he is now. Basically, for now, I will not be with anyone else but him."
For sure, Anthony knew it when he asked the question, it was very likely that he would get hurt again.
But he just couldn't help it.
Hearing her answer, he expressed a look that showed he had expected it, and said with a wry smile, "Then I can only say that he is really lucky."
Evelyn didn't gave him a respond.
Again, Anthony sighed.
"Alright, if that's the case, I'll be leaving first."
Upon hearing that, Evelyn nodded, and Anthony left afterward.
Later in the evening, they had to film, and some of the scenes would be filmed outdoor.
It was already at the end of the year, so it was definitely very cold outside during wintertime.
In the evening, snowflakes were falling from the sky, adding a hint of bleakness to the atmosphere.
By the time they finished filming, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
As Evelyn was extremely cold, immediately after receiving the news that her work was done, she wrapped herself in a military coat and walked to the hotel with Carrie.
It was already very late, and some of them were still filming on the set.
And the rest had already gone back to the hotel.
Therefore, when she and Carrie returned to the hotel, it was rare that only the two of them were there.
The set was not far away from the hotel, and snow was piling up on both sides of the road on a winter night. By car, it would only take a few minutes to get there.
But Evelyn was so hungry that she didn't want to order takeout, so she decided to get something to eat on her walk back with Carrie.
Unexpectedly, right after they had just bought two barbecues and fried rice, and were about to head back to the hotel, a person who was hiding in the shadow suddenly appeared in the alley.
All of a sudden, the person in the dark quickly grabbed Evelyn and dragged her away into the alley.
When that happened, Evelyn didn't even have time to scream. On the other end, Carrie was completely stunned, as she paused for two seconds before she reacted, and quickly shouted. "Evelyn!"
Then, she left the food behind and chased after them in a hurry. However, it was so dark in the alley that she couldn't see anyone.
At that moment, she was completely in shock. Being there, alone, she was afraid to walk further down the alley, but then again, there was nothing she could do.
On a cold winter night, there were not many pedestrians on the road.
The only place that was relatively close to them was the night market that was a few hundred meters away.
But if she really ran over there and asked for help, the person would have already escaped, and it would be too late.
In desperation, she took out her cell phone and called the police as she chased after them.
The alley was pitch dark and there wasn't even a streetlamp in sight, so she could only light it with her phone along the way.
it would be a lie if she was to say that she wasn't afraid.
However, as soon as she thought that Evelyn was in danger, she had no time to think about anything else, as she ran and shouted.
"Evelyn, where are you?"
"Evelyn, don't be afraid. I've already called the police. The police will be here soon."
Then, she even threatened the criminal who kidnapped Evelyn.
"I advise you to let go of her as soon as possible, or you'll have no time to run away later."
"Do you want money? Let me tell you, the money is all with me. Here, here's her money, including the bank card, cash, and mobile phone. Come and get it. She has no money on her!"
As she spoke, she poured everything on the ground.
Not knowing who they were and why they kidnapped Evelyn, Carrie could only try to threaten and lure them out. She hoped that they could hear her and let Evelyn go.
However, in truth, no matter how hard she shouted, no one made a sound.
On the contrary, she heard a voice coming from the entrance of the alley where she entered.
"Eh? Carrie, why are you here?"
Feeling all tensed up, Carrie turned around abruptly when she heard the voice.
When she saw the person standing under the street lamp at the entrance of the alley, it was as if she had seen her savior and ran over immediately.
"Anthony!"
Coincidentally, Anthony was also hungry, and initially, Gick was supposed to buy supper for him, but Gick caught a cold today.
But Anthony didn't want Gick to come out and catch the cold wind, so he came out to get supper without telling him.
After he bought supper, he was walking back when he heard a familiar female voice coming from the alley.
Out of curiosity, he came over to have a look, only to find that it was really was someone he knew.
So, he yelled.
Noticing that Carrie looked scared and helpless, Anthony was slightly shocked.
"What's wrong? Why are you alone? Where's Evelyn?"
As Carrie was so anxious, she was about to cry. "Anthony, I beg you. Please save Evelyn. She is missing."
When Anthony heard the word, his expression changed immediately.
"What do you mean? What do you mean she is missing? Explain clearly."
Then, Carrie told Anthony everything that had just happened.
In reality, it was very simple, and it happened so fast that it could be explained in a few sentences.
However, based on the few sentences he heard, Anthony sensed a huge danger.
First of all, the person came out of an alley and snatched her away suddenly.
So, it was definitely not a coincidence, plus it was already very late and cold.
