Chapter 1571:
Lucas deliberately softened his voice as he said to Belinda, “Did my conversation disturb your rest? You can go back to sleep.”
Belinda responded, “It’s alright. Call Faye immediately and check on her.”
Lucas nodded his understanding and, without hesitation, dialed Faye’s number.
However, Faye didn’t answer the call.
Lucas’ brows knitted into a tight knot, and without a word, he dialed again.
He called three times in a row, but still, no one answered.
Lucas’ expression grew progressively more grave with each failed connection.
Belinda immediately proposed a course of action. “Lucas, we must venture out to search for Faye without delay. She has disappeared into those woods at this dangerous hour, and she’s not answering her phone. What if something happens to her?”
As the words left her lips, Belinda had already sprung from the warmth of the bed and moved with purposeful determination to change her clothes.
“Okay,” Lucas replied.
After delivering his response, he turned and exited the room with resolute steps.
“Did she answer the phone?” Johnson asked with evident concern upon seeing Lucas.
Lucas replied, “I called her three times, but she didn’t answer. Belinda and I will venture into the woods to find her immediately.”
“All right, we will accompany you,” Johnson nodded.
“We will get changed first. Let’s meet later in the lobby,” Lucas said before closing the door.
Johnson turned his attention to Ben. “Mr. Ramos, please gather several security personnel and ensure they bring powerful flashlights with them. We’ll venture into the woods to conduct a search for her.”
“Of course! I’ll do that right away.” Ben nodded with unwavering determination and spun around to depart.
“Hold on just a moment!” Johnson’s voice rang out sharply, stopping Ben in his tracks.

Then he said, “You possess the master keycard that grants access to all the rooms here, right? Let’s make our way to Faye’s hotel room first, to verify with absolute certainty that she’s truly not resting there. Additionally, we need to examine her room thoroughly for anything that might appear odd.”
Johnson pivoted toward Catherine with purposeful intent. “Cathy, please hurry to knock on both Bethany’s and Vincent’s doors and wake them up so they can join our urgent search party.”
“Okay.” Catherine wasted no time and strode directly toward Bethany’s room.
The group hurried to the hotel lobby as quickly as possible.
Johnson extended his hand and retrieved a phone from his jacket pocket. “I discovered this lying abandoned in Faye’s room. She left without taking her phone with her.”
Lucas cast his gaze upon the forgotten device, his brow furrowing deeply with concern. He immediately said, “Let’s go search for her now.”
“All right.”
