Noah raised his eyebrows. “For real?”
The man said, “Yeah, it’s real. Someone in the town witnessed it himself.”
Another man said, “Let’s see what kind of girl it is late.”
While talking, they walked towards the hill.
Right then, the cell phone in Matthew’s pocket started ringing. He pulled it out and found it was a call from Dolores. He paused a bit. After Noah and other men went afar, he swiped to answer it.
“Hello...”
“Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?” Dolores asked hoarsely in a strong nasal voice.
“What happened?” His face tightened immediately.
“Uncle Kevin... He passed away.”
Matthew wasn’t quite surprised. After all, his doctor had mentioned that at the most he could only witness Joshua’s wedding.
“I’ll go back now.”
He hung up the home and called Noah back.
“What’s wrong?” Noah trotted over.
“I must go back. Please go on searching here,” said Matthew.
“Haven’t you just arrived? Why are you going back now? Has anything happened? Or...”
Matthew interrupted him, telling him that Kevin had passed away.
Noah nodded. “I see. Please rest assure and leave everything to me. I’ll investigate as you suggested.”
Afraid that Matthew was still worried, Noah added, “I’ll try my best to find Andrew as soon as possible.”
Matthew didn't answer. He put his hand on Noah's shoulder in silence, which actually implied a lot of things. Although he didn't speak a single word, Noah knew how heavy the burden was on his shoulders.
"I'll try." Noah gave him a ride to the airport. The men who came with them would continue searching for Andrew.
After Matthew had arrived, without a rest, he had to rush back.
They had to drive to the city so he could take a flight.
Noah drove directly to the airport in the city.
However, they didn't find a suitable flight to fly back, so Matthew changed to take the high-speed train instead.
Seeing Matthew get on the train, Noah left.
It took him a whole night to see off Matthew and come back to the town.
When he finally got back, it was almost bright
However, the good news was waiting for him.
“Andrew Nelson has been found,” someone trotted over to tell him good news as soon as Noah had parked the car.
“When?” he asked.
“Last night.”
After Noah and Matthew were gone, those men continued to search. In the evening, Evelyn was having dinner with Andrew in the yard, which was seen by them.
“Where is he now? Why didn’t you call me last night?” Noah asked in a deep tone.
“We tried to call you but couldn’t get through.”
“How could it be?” Noah thought that he was talking nonsense. He pulled out the phone from his pocket, but the screen didn’t light up after he pressed the buttons. It turned out that his phone was dead.
“How could it be dead at the critical moment.” He felt a bit annoyed
“We’ve picked up Andrew Nelson as well as the girl who has saved him,” the man reminded Noah.
Noah said, “Okay. I’ll go check on him. That’s the most important.”
It was good to find Andrew.
He strode ahead while asking, “Is he OK?”
The man who followed him paused a bit. “Well, he’s blind.”
"What?" Noah couldn't keep calm. His face went livid and pale.
“But he’ll be fine. The girl who has saved him said it could be cured.”
Noah felt as if he was riding a roller coaster when hearing the bad and good news. He said, “Okay. Let’s get in.”
They stayed in a house in this town. There were a lot of family members in this house, but they were all out of town now. The whole house was empty.
They rented it.
After they had found Andrew, they took him to this house.
When Noah entered the door, he saw Andrew sitting on the chair. He strode over to him. “Andrew...”
“Uncle Noah?” Andrew greeted him when hearing his voice.
Noah grabbed his shoulders, his hands trembling. "Good you are fine. I'm so glad. Otherwise, I don't know how to explain it to your parents. And your eyes..."
“I’m fine,” said Andrew with a smile. “Evelyn will cure my eyes for me.”
Noah was stunned at the name.
He turned around to look at the girl standing behind Andrew.
“She is Evelyn. It’s she who saved me,” said Andrew.
"Thank you so much. Please let me know if you want anything. You've saved Andrew, so you are the benefactor of the Harris and Nelson families. As long as we can afford it, we'll satisfy your conditions." Noah wanted to thank this girl who had saved Andrews.
“Uncle Noah,” Andrew called him.
“I’m here.” Noah reached out to grab his hand. “Since you were safe, why didn’t you contact us? Don’t you know how much we were worried about you? We dared not to let your mother know and hid it from her. We’re afraid that she wouldn’t bear it after knowing something happened to you.”
“I was in a coma for a long time. After waking up, Evelyn said someone was looking for me outside. I thought it was the remnant of the criminal. Besides, I couldn’t see anything, so I didn’t contact you, afraid to bring you trouble and danger.”
He also was afraid that he had become blind, which would worry his family, so he didn’t contact them right away.
“Evelyn said my eyes will be recovered in a few days, so I decided to contact you when I’ve recovered. Sorry for worrying you all.”
“It’s alright. It’s alright. The most important is you are safe and sound. I’ll call your father. He has just left last night.” As he spoke, Noah asked a man to pass him a cell phone.
“Did my father come over? How about my mother?” asked Andrew.
“Your father came here alone. Your mother didn’t know what happened to you. We’ve been hiding it from him. You know she’s quite fragile, so we’re afraid she wouldn’t be able to bear the bad news.” He dialled the number and put it next to his ear.
“Don’t tell them about my eyes. I don’t want them to worry,” said Andrew.
Noah looked at him and said, “Okay.”
Meanwhile, the call was connected.
“Andrew has been found, Matthew,” he said.
“When?”
"When you were leaving last night. He was safe and sound. Don't worry. We'll go back now."
“Ehn.”
“We’ll go back to City B first, then to City C,” said Noah.
“Ehn.”
Noah hung up the phone, looking over at Andrew. After a hesitation, he said, “Grandpa Kevin passed away.”
Then he comforted Andrew, “It’s a destiny for the old. Please restrain your grief.”
Andrew knew it but he still felt upset. “Shall we go back today?”
“Yeah. We should set off now. Then we’ll be able to attend his funeral,” said Noah.
Andrew also thought so. They went back to City B together. Since Evelyn would cure his eyes, she followed them.
When Noah left City B, he told Chloe what had happened honesty, so she also know about Andrew's matter. Seeing him come back safely, Chloe felt quite lucky
“Your uncle has told me everything, Andrew. Take a rest. He’s arranging your trip to City C. We can set off tonight.”
