Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1090 Are You Looking For Someone I Can Help

“What are you doing? What time is it now? Why not let me sleep more? I’m still sleepy!”

It was still dawn. And at this time, people usually were still in deep slumber. But Sally was jolted awake. Rubbing her messy hair, she groggily threw a look at the young man at the door.

“Sis, did Selina call you?”

Adonis calmly asked though his voice carried a hint of worry.

He had called Selina a moment ago, a couple of times, but her phone was now unattended. He couldn’t contact her. So he resorted to waking Sally up and asking her if she had any news of Selina.

“Selina? No, she didn’t. What’s wrong?”

Sally mumbled as she rubbed her head in confusion.

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Adonis realized that she knew nothing. He abruptly told her, “Selina ran away from home. Uncle Steven has been looking for her for the whole night, but he couldn’t find her.”

“Ran away from home? What happened? Why did she run away?” Sally got sober immediately and bombarded him with a series of questions, even in her muddled state.

“She had learned about her real identity and couldn’t accept it, so she left,” Adonis pointed out as concisely as possible while he intently regarded his sister’s bewildered expression.

Hearing this, Sally hurriedly moved to reach for her phone.

Sally remembered how sleepy she was the previous night, and all she wanted was to have a good sleep. So she decided to mute her phone. However, she didn’t expect such a thing to happen.

“My goodness, she did call me!”

Sally blurted out as her eyes widened in disbelief. Checking her phone, she found there were several calls from Selina that she missed.

“Sis, are you feeling better? Does your ankle still hurt? If you’re okay now, can you go out with me to look for her? Don’t tell Mom for the time being. She is very busy. Uncle Sean’s wedding is in a few days…”

Adonis gently prompted her as he searched her eyes. The silent look he gave her was akin to telling her that as the only Sean’s only family, Carla would do everything to make the wedding a bit grander.

And knowing his sister more, Adonis thought that it would be better to find Sally something to get her mind off it.

Sally was stunned for a while before snapping back to her senses. She couldn’t believe that whenever she heard Sean’s name, she still had a sinking feeling in her heart. Meeting her brother’s intent gaze, she quickly nodded and uttered, “Okay, I’ll be getting ready in a minute and go with you.”

Several minutes later, Sally and Adonis rushed out of the house together.

In the car, they discussed Selina’s possible whereabouts. Adonis confided that Selina had said that she was in the harbor at that time. Furthermore, JA City was the only place she had been to, so it was very likely that she would come here.

Adonis had already ordered someone to thoroughly check the port where the boat from Yu Sea City would dock. They had to keep him posted if there was any news of Selina.

He could only shake his head as the chance of finding

fall from the corners of her eyes. Why was she so unlucky? If she only knew that she would meet Sean here, she would have gone to the ferry port instead and asked Adonis to come to the airport!

“Are you looking for someone? Do you need my help?”

Sean was about to leave, but when he saw how Sally went to check every little girl who came out, he knew that she was seriously looking for someone.

Sally didn’t have time to calm down and confessed, “Selina ran away from home. I suspect that she came to JA City by plane.”

She sniffed and continued, “She’s only eleven years old. What if she gets lost?”

Hearing this, Sean was quick to comfort her, “Relax, she won’t. Since she is eleven years old, she should have some self-protection instincts. Don’t think about it too much.”

Although he hadn’t seen Selina before, he knew who she was.

“Carl! Come here,” Sean asked Carl at once to come for help.

“Do you have her picture? Send it to my phone. I’ll help you expand the search,” Sean spoke to Sally in a low voice.

Sally nodded and pulled out her phone. She was about to send the photo of Selina to him when she received an incoming call from Adonis.

“Sally, there’s no need to look for her at the airport. I’ve contacted the ship from Yu Sea City, and she is one of the passengers. She should be here in the evening,”

Adonis explained on the phone without missing a beat.

But what he heard about Selina surprised him.

The staff on the ship revealed that the little girl was good at acting, and she cried with tears and snot.

Selina also claimed that she was abducted and sold to Yu Sea City by human traffickers. And that her stepfather often beat her up. She couldn’t stand it, so she sneaked out when her stepfather was drunk!

The staff had initially planned to call the police, but the little girl insisted that she knew her home and pleaded them not to call the police. She was deathly afraid that her stepfather would find out and take her back home and severely punish her.
