After hanging up the phone, Raina still felt uneasy. She realized that Jonah had been missing for quite a while, ever since they parted ways that night at the nightclub.
The more Raina thought about it, the more worried she became, so she decided to check things out herself.
Just as she stepped out of her room, she ran into Pip Finch.
"Orion, I heard..."
"We’ll talk about it later." Raina didn’t wait for Pip to finish before waving him off and leaving.
Pip watched Raina’s hurried figure and couldn’t help but mutter, "Orion, why is he in such a rush? Could it be because of a new target?"
"What new target?"
"Luicy Larson, of course. I remember every time Orion had a new hunting target, he was always this eager." After saying this, Pip realized it wasn’t right. Turning around, he saw Elias Hawthorne standing not far away.
He was dumbfounded and quickly explained: "No, no, I was just talking nonsense, my Orion isn’t looking for Luicy Larson, I was talking about the past, yes, all in the past, Orion definitely isn’t like this now."
Pip spoke in a muddled manner and, seeing Elias’s expression unchanged, became even more anxious: "I really was speaking nonsense, you must believe me."
Elias nodded, "I know Leo well. No need to worry."
"That’s good, that’s good." Pip breathed a sigh of relief, finding it too stressful to deal with someone like Elias. He immediately tried to find an excuse to sneak away, "Well, um..."
"Dante is already waiting for you outside."
Pip’s spirits lifted upon hearing this, and he quickly said, "Then I’ll head over." After taking a couple steps, he returned and said seriously, "I’ve approved of you. As long as you defeat the other rivals beside Orion, you’ll be my brother-in-law."
Brother-in-law...
Upon hearing this term, Quinn Thorne almost turned to stone. What kind of ridiculous title is that?
Elias also chuckled, "Just call me big brother."
"Alright, big brother." Pip called out, and then ran off happily.
Elias withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Quinn.
Quinn immediately said, "No problem, I’ll go find out about sis-in-law’s whereabouts right away."
...
Raina went to Jonah’s out-of-town residence.
It was a small building surrounded by dense forests with white walls and gray tiles, exuding a classical atmosphere and a little aura of a wise recluse, a perfect setting for pretentiousness.
Raina stubbornly pressed the doorbell, hoping that someone would suddenly come out from the small building, angrily roaring at her for disturbing his rest.
Unfortunately, that didn’t happen.
Raina took a deep breath, then jumped onto the nearby tree and retrieved a key from a bird’s nest on a branch.
Regarding Jonah’s habit of hiding the key here, Raina was too lazy to comment.
Raina used the key to open the door and walked inside.
The room was very quiet, with a sense of coldness as if it hadn’t been inhabited for a long time.
She groped around to turn on the lights, searched upstairs and downstairs, but didn’t find anything unusual, nor any clues.
Raina furrowed her brows and sat heavily on the sofa, pondering where Jonah could have gone.
Even if he was assigned a task by the organization, he shouldn’t have lost contact for so long.
Raina grew even more worried.
Suddenly, her attention was drawn to an easel placed aside. She walked over and lifted the cover from the canvas.
On the drawing paper was a beautiful white wedding dress.
Raina couldn’t help but smile at the sight.
She thought, even if people outside rack their brains, they would never guess that the infamous Asura in the assassin world privately loved designing wedding dresses.
