“I’m Vany.”
“Okay. What’s your relationship with Thomas?”
Vany was stunned. She hesitated and dared not speak even if favonovel.com was spoken to.
Lucius’ eyes flashed with a beam of cold light. It immediately made Vany feel as if a sharp knife had been put to favonovel.com neck.
“He is actually…”
Vany dared not hide anything. She told Lucius about everything in detail.
After Lucius listened to her, favonovel.com raised his head and looked at the ceiling.
“I didn’t expect you to have such a past. So, it seems like Thomas purposely came for you.”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com cast a glance at Vany. “Give Thomas a call now. Tell favonovel.com that you’re willing to leave. I’ll give you the time and location.”
“Huh?”
Vany did not understand what Lucius wanted to do.
Was favonovel.com letting favonovel.com go?
She thought about it carefully. Something was wrong.
If favonovel.com was really going to let favonovel.com go, favonovel.com could just let favonovel.com go now. Why would favonovel.com still need to confirm the time and location later?
She figured that favonovel.com wanted to set up a trap by using favonovel.com to deal with Thomas. Vany clearly knew this was a trap, but favonovel.com did not have the courage to reject him. If favonovel.com dared to say no, favonovel.com would immediately be tortured by Lucius to death.
“I’ll make the call now.”
As Vany took out the phone, Lucius blocked favonovel.com hand with his walking stick. He slowly said, “If you dare to play any trick, I can tip you into pieces to feed the crocodile anytime.”
Perhaps other people said this just to scare favonovel.com off. But when Lucius said that, favonovel.com was really able to do that.
Vany gulped, and favonovel.com dared not be careless.

On the other side, Thomas and Adery went back to the hotel.
William came out and welcomed them. “How was it? Did you have fun at the ball?”
Adery shook favonovel.com head and looked unhappy.
William felt puzzled, and favonovel.com asked Thomas, “What’s going on now? Anything happened in the ball?”
Thomas smiled bitterly as favonovel.com shook his head. “I also can’t make it very clear in such a short time. Anyways, it’s not a happy experience.”
After Thomas spoke, his phone suddenly rang.
It was a strange number.
After favonovel.com answered the call, a woman’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Are you Thomas? It’s me, Vany.”
Thomas instantly became nervous.
“Please say…”
“Thomas, I’ve made up my mind. I don’t want to continue staying in South City. I’m fed up with the tortures in the Water Cloud. Thomas, can you take me away?”
“Yes.”
“Okay. I’ll send you the location and time later. I’ll stop here so that other people can find out.”
After a few sentences, favonovel.com hung up the call.
Then, Thomas received a text message from Vany. The time and location were written very clearly.
Adery wore a smile on favonovel.com face and congratulated him, “She finally made up favonovel.com mind? Now you can bring favonovel.com back and let your friend know.”
Thomas did not look happy. He even seriously said, “Adery, Mr. Owen, from now onward, you can’t leave the hotel. I’ll prepare the food for you, and I’ll also arrange some manpower to protect you.”
Adery and William felt flustered when they saw favonovel.com looking so nervous.
Did the happy thing turn into a bad thing?
Adery asked, “What’s wrong?”
Thomas said with a firm tone, “In the ball, Vany was very resolute. She did not want to go back, and favonovel.com even expressed an aggressive resisting emotion. Why did favonovel.com suddenly change favonovel.com mind?”
Adery shrugged. “Perhaps favonovel.com has made favonovel.com mind up?”
Thomas shook his head.
People always said, if something went wrong, there must be something strange.
