Chapter 951
Chapter 951 A Thorough Search
Felix had been the one taking care of her all this while. This time, Ysabelle wanted to be there to take care of him.
That was why she needed to eat well.
Only then would she be able to appear before him in her best state.
“That’s more like it. Don’t worry. Your uncle and I will definitely find Felix,” Sophie promised. She believed there was nothing they could not do when they teamed up.
“Okay. You should eat, too, Sophie. Let’s eat together.”
“Okay
After breakfast, Ysabelle stared blankly at the sky outside the window. All she could do was pray that Felix was fine. I’ll do anything as long as he’s fine.
“Sophie, you don’t have to stay here to keep me company. I know you and Uncle Tristan have many things to discuss.”
There was nothing Ysabelle could do when it came to searching for Felix, but she did not want to hold them back, either.
Moreover, she was not really a smart person. The only thing she could do was leave it to Tristan and Sophie.
Sophie patted her friend’s hand to calm the latter.
“Relax. It’ll be all right,” she assured. She’s still too nervous. We’ve already analyzed everything we needed to last night. There’s nothing more we can do. We can only take action when we land.
“Okay.” Ysabelle flashed Sophie a smile that looked more miserable than her crying.
Sophie could only gently pat her friend’s face.
“There, there. You don’t have to force a smile. I understand what you’re feeling now.”
Ysabelle leaned on Sophie’s shoulder, not wanting to say a word. She felt awful, but it was not the right time to cry.
Sophie stayed by Ysabelle’s side until the plane landed at Fandar’s airport. Ysabelle almost fell when she got to her feet to exit the plane. Thankfully, Sophie caught the latter in time,
She’s in a terrible state.
“Get yourself together. Felix is an incredible person. You’ve got to believe in him even if you don’t believe in us, okay?”
“It’s not that I don’t believe in you, Sophie. I’m just worried.” After all, Fandar had become a lawless place.
All kinds of people existed there.
One could die there if they were not careful enough.
Holding Ysabelle’s hand, Sophie prompted, “All right. Let’s go. We need to look for Bertram.” They needed. to look for Bertram because he was more familiar with the country.
As soon as they got off the plane, they found Bertram’s men already waiting for them. Hence, they got into the car and went straight to their base in Fandar.
Ysabelle’s stomach churned with anxiety when she saw what the place had become from all the explosions.
The place was ten times worse than she had expected.
Refugees were everywhere, and no one knew when they would rebel. Even the other forces stared at them warily.
Seeing that, Ysabelle pressed closer to Sophie’s shoulder.
“Stop looking. This place is like that. Cruel things are happening every day in places you don’t know of.” said Sophie.
Ysabelle had always been a sheltered princess.
As she was someone who had never seen the cruel side of the world, she could experience what it meant to live by the law of the jungle there.
Ysabelle shook her head.
“I’m fine. I’m all right,” she said. So, this is how some people on Earth live? I, on the other hand, have been living a pampered life. What more can I ask for?
Soon, the group arrived at their base at Fandar in the off-road vehicle. When Bertram heard about their arrival, he quickly stepped out to welcome them.
“You guys are here! I’m afraid our technicians are not skilled enough as we can’t seem to locate Mr. Northley’s whereabouts.”
They needed to identify their target’s location in order to rescue him.
The problem was that they had no idea where he was.
“I’ll take a look.” Sophie had confidence in her skills. Hence, she did not hesitate to take on the responsibility.
“All right. Please follow me, Ms. Tanner.”
With that, Bertram brought her to the technical department, where a few computers were set up. Several technicians could be seen making repeated yet unfruitful attempts.
Since every computer was occupied there, Bertram ordered one of the technicians to stand up before saying. “You can use this one, Ms. Tanner.”
Ever since the last incident, Bertram dared not underestimate her. Mr. Tristan’s woman isn’t that simple.
Sophie simply took over the technician’s job without so much as saying a word. Alas, no matter how hard
she searched, Felix could not be tracked.
“Did you find Felix’s phone?”
“We did, but we still couldn’t find him. The phone wasn’t with him, so we couldn’t lock onto his location.”
Bertram was truly in despair when they found Felix’s phone.
“Are you unable to find him, Sophie?” Ysabelle was on the verge of tears. How can this be? Sophie’s amazing at this. If even she can’t find him, does that mean Felix is….
“Since Felix doesn’t have his phone with him, we can only look for him like we would search for a needle in a haystack. We’ll need to look into the surveillance footage of the area where you found the phone.”
That was the only thing they could do at that moment.
“Okay. I’ve already asked some of my men to look into the footage.”
“Great.”
Following that, Sophie swiftly hacked into Fandar’s network system and copied all the footage captured by the nearby surveillance cameras.
“Is there anything I can do. Sophie? I’d like to help,” Ysabelle offered. She had come because she wanted to be of some help.
“Come here. You can check this footage. Watch them carefully and let me know if you see Felix.” Sophie got to her feet and gave Ysabelle her seat.
She’ll overthink things if I don’t let her do something.
“Okay. Leave it to me. I’ll watch them thoroughly.” At that, Ysabelle began watching the footage. As someone who was familiar with Felix, she would surely find him if he appeared in them.
Be safe, Felir. Don’t you dare leave me alone!
In the meantime, Sophie asked another technician to give her his seat. The truth was, they did not need a person to look through all of the footage.
A simple program could let them know whether Felix showed up in them.
However, the results only disappointed Sophie. Getting to her feet, she suggested to Tristan, “Come on. Let’s go out.”
Tristan nodded to express his agreement. Looks like looking for Felix is going to be tough.
“Are you unable to find him, Ms. Tanner?”
“Yep. Felix isn’t in any of these footage.”
“Why are you still making Ms. Ysabelle look at them, then?”
“It’s to distract her. Otherwise, she’ll start overthinking.” Sophie had already examined the footage, yet Felix was nowhere to be found. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.
“What do we do now? He’s been missing for two days. Could he…” Bertram’s voice trailed off when he saw the look on Tristan’s face. “I’m sorry, Mr. Tristan. It’s my fault for not doing my job well to protect him.”
“There’s no point talking about that now. What matters is that we find him as soon as possible,” Tristan snapped. To him, all that talk was meaningless at that moment.
