Chapter 124. Picking Up
Chapter 124: 124. Picking Up
"Fine, but when we know that their background is not very good, I want to be the one to step forward." John snorted.
Andy shook his head. "In the end, she’s just an outsider. As long as she is no longer close to any of her friends, you might be able to make a move at that time."
An outsider.
John’s eyes flashed viciously.
He was humiliated by that woman several times. If there was a chance in the future, he will definitely pay this humiliation back several times.
Humph!
Betty’s eyes also flashed when she heard Andy’s words. She actually wished to be able to go to Anna right in this instant and humiliate the other party. After all, being forced by Anna several times during this period of time has made Betty frustrated and annoyed.
Now that there was a chance to cause trouble for Anna, how could Betty let it go so easily?
But when she heard Andy’s words, she realized that she was too impulsive.
The situation outside was still unclear and whether Anna could survive on her own still remained unknown
When Betty thought about this, she sneered in her heart.
She hoped Anna would die a thousand times and suffer!
While she was enjoying a comfortable life all over, Anna should just go and suffer greatly in this changed world.
Knock! Knock!
The door was knocked and several people appeared.
"Hello, we’re searching for Jake Stafford, Betty Natasha Williams, Andy Julius Mason, and John Mayne Naele. Have you ever seen them?" The man at the front asked. He had a big and muscular body, making one fearful just from one glance from him.
"My name is Andy Julius Mason," Andy replied. He looked at the man in front of him. "Are you the one sent by my father?"
"Please step back for a moment." The man took out the photo and compared it with Andy.
During this period of time, Andy’s life was not very good, so he looked rather haggard. Compared to his lively and healthy look in the past, he looked much paler and messy. The man didn’t recognize him immediately.
But after comparison with the photo, it was clear that the person in front of him was indeed Andy Julius Mason, the young man whom he was looking for.
"Sorry for the offense, Young Master Andy." The man nodded when he had identified Andy.
"It’s nothing. The others are also here." Andy took a step back to show the people behind him.
In fact, the people here knew that this was not Andy and the others’ room, but they didn’t ask anything. Instead, they tried her best to identify these people to make sure that they didn’t take the wrong person.
After some time, their identities were basically confirmed.
"Please pack up. We’re going to go to the base."
"May I ask the name of the base?" Andy asked.
"The name is Sunshine Base. It’s a base that’s dedicated to create better life for the people inside," the man replied.
Sunshine Base?
Andy was rather taken aback with such a name being chosen for the base. However, he only nodded in the end because he knew that it was a name that was selected by these people.
Probably, they made such a name to make sure that their base is attractive to other people out there.
Who knew?
Andy would not bother with it too much.
"Can I go upstairs for a few minutes?" Jake suddenly asked.
The man looked at Jake in confusion but he still nodded. "If you have friends you want to bring or bid farewell, you can do it now."
"Thank you."
"Jake..." Betty was about to stop Jake, but before her words were finished, Jake had already sprang out and ran towards the stairs.
Seeing his action, Betty’s fingers clasped to form a fist. She knew very well that Jake was going to find Anna upstairs.
Even after all these times, Jake was still thinking about Anna.
How come the Anna who had been disliked by Jake suddenly entered his eyes and attracted him again? Betty didn’t understand and felt very frustrated.
She felt that all of her hard work over the years was going to be useless.
"Heh, why do you even like Jake so much?" John snorted when he saw Betty’s small action. He used to like this woman too but because he didn’t really want to invest himself in a relationship, he didn’t pursue Betty at all.
Anyway, it didn’t need a genius to know that Betty’s eyes would only have Jake.
Other men seemed to be eclipsed to the point that seeing the corner of their clothes alone was already a difficult feat.
"What do you know?" Betty snorted and then went to pick up some items from this room. Her own belongings were not in this room, but there were still some pretty good items for her to bring along.
John shrugged and didn’t bother Betty anymore. He was also busy cleaning up.
Anyway, no matter what happened in the future, he didn’t care that much.
...
Jake ran to the 16th floor and saw the locked door. He called out, "Anna!"
Silence.
"Anna!"
It was still silent.
Jake felt frustrated, thinking that even if Anna was there, she didn’t want to see him at all. Even her other friends didn’t come out at all.
Jake tried to call a few more times but what greeted him was another silence.
Just as he was about to return, he thought about the 17th floor. The four people all stayed together and seemed to be moving between the 16th floor and the 17th floor. He knew this because those who speak up for Anna came from both the 16th floor and the 17th floor.
With that in mind, Jake rushed to the 17th floor at the fastest speed possible.
Drap! Drap!
"Anna!"
Jake tried to call out once more.
It was still silence that greeted him.
