”And what's wrong with that guy? He looked for Bonnie all afternoon, but he still didn't find her?” Emily continued to show her annoyance.
”Shall we help him?” Jacob asked her directly. He took out his mobile phone as if he would immediately call someone to look for Bonnie as soon as Emily agreed.
Emily looked at the phone in his hand. After hesitating for a few seconds, she nodded. ”Okay. Make your calls.” She was worried that Bonnie was alone somewhere at this time of night.
If something happened to her, Emily would spend the rest of her life feeling guilty about it.
