'Uncle Jordan?'
When Molly heard how Lesley called Mr. Ballard, a trace of surprise flashed through Molly's eyes.
'I thought that Lesley was Mr. Ballard's granddaughter. It seemed that I was wrong.
‘Anyway, it's great that she is one of us.'
Mr. Ballard recognized Lesley's voice on the phone and became excited. "Lesley, is it you?"
Even though he couldn't see her moves, Lesley still nodded nonstop and choked out, "Uncle Jordan, it’s me."
"Lesley!"
Mr. Ballard felt weepy and asked, 'How is Logan? Is he with you?"
Lesley wiped her tears, forced a smile and tried to say in a relaxing tone, "He's with me and fine. Don't worry."
Hearing that, Mr. Ballard breathed a sigh of relief. "It's great. You must have suffered a lot these two years."
The Ballards had scattered in different places since they were being imprisoned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Mr. Ballard knew that Logan and Lesley were fine, Mr.
Ballard finally felt relieved slightly.
"Don't worry about us. You have suffered much more than us. If Logan knows that you're fine, he will be happy."
When Lesley said that, she looked up at Molly and added." Molly told me that they had saved you, but I didn't
believe her."
Lesley's gaze became guilty towards Molly.
'I not only didn't believe her but also hurt her.'
Hearing that, Mr. Ballard said with a smile, "I'm fine. Molly has taken good care of me. Don't worry about me."
They chatted for a while. Then Lesley returned the phone to Molly.
"Mr. Ballard, it's me."
Molly glanced at Lesley who was wiping tears and grabbed Lesley's hand subconsciously.
Lesley raised her head.
They looked at each other.
Molly smiled warmly at Lesley.
Lesley burst into tears again.
At that time, Mr. Ballard asked with concern on the phone," Molly, how are you after you go there with Eaton? Has
he bullied you?"
"I'm all right."
"It's fine."
Mr. Ballard laughed cheerfully. "I knew that you were smart and would take good care of yourself, but I didn't
expect you to meet Lesley. You need to get along well with each other and help each other."
Molly smiled. "We will."
Then she changed the topic and asked, "Have you started to investigate Venomous Insect? Have you gotten any
findings about Sean's matter?"
She had been imprisoned on the island these days and wasn't clear about the progress.
"Calm down. I'm investigating it and will get good news soon."
Hearing "good news", Molly was overjoyed. "Is it true?"
"Have I ever deceived you?"

They chatted for a while. Mr. Ballard told them to be careful and take care of themselves. Then they hung up.
Lesley had thrown the dagger away already, but she hadn't calmed down yet.
"Here you are."
Molly handed a tissue to her.
"Thank you."
Lesley took the tissue and wiped her tears. When she recalled what she had done, she felt embarrassed and
apologized, "I'm sorry that I didn't believe you. I was too emotional."
After they got along with each other these days, they knew each other well.
But Lesley still misunderstood Molly for that.
Molly didn't mind it and comforted Lesley with a smile, ” Never mind. It's understandable."
Then Lesley saw the wound on Molly's neck. Lesley became more guilty and said, "Let's go to the cafe to treat your
wound."
Molly nodded. "OK."
