The sudden change of heart made Anna freeze in place.
She was puzzled beyond words, “Why ah, just now, didn’t we all say it already?”
It’s only been a few minutes, and you’re saying no.
Uncle Kaohi’s tone was insistent, “I really can’t go, you’d better find someone else, I just remembered that I have something very important to do tomorrow.”
“But I don’t know who to look for other than you.” Anna began to fret, “How about this, Uncle Kaohi, you can go later and leave after you distract my parents for me, with the round trip, two hours will be enough.”
Just two hours, that should be fine, right?
“Really no.” Uncle Kaohi still insisted, “If you can’t go, you can’t go.”
Throwing down these words, Uncle Kaohi simply left.
He didn’t give Anna a chance to discuss it again.
Anna was so depressed that she sat in her wheelchair and fretted.
The reason why she called Uncle Kaohi was because now that she was in Reliacao, not too many people believed in her.
If she called someone else, she was afraid that mom and dad would see it.
But now that Uncle Kaohi couldn’t help, she had to think of something else.
Anna thought and put her mind on Bonnie.
If she asked Bonnie to help, should she be able to find someone in Reliacao who can help her?
There was really no other way, Anna had to take out her cell phone.
But before the call could go out, someone called in.
It was Uncle Kaohi.
Had it changed his mind?
Anna was thrilled beyond belief and immediately picked up the phone, “Hey Uncle Kaohi, are you able to go?”
“No.” Uncle Kaohi replied.
The hope that had just risen was doused once again, Anna’s voice was absent, “So, what’s the matter with you then?”
On the other end of the phone, Uncle Kaohi was silent for half a minute, as if he was making a difficult decision, “Although I can’t go, I can introduce you to someone I trust and can definitely help you.”
Anna was touched.
“Really thank you, since it’s Uncle Kaohi you trust, it must be a good person, give me a contact information, I’ll get in touch with him.”
Uncle Kaohi once again fell into silence, a bit unbelievable like, “You trust me so much?”
“Yes, you are a good person, very trustworthy!” Anna replied, “I forgot to tell you that I know face reading, so I could tell at a glance that you are a good person.”
“Miss Newman,” Uncle Kaohi spoke up, “Actually, you could have made up your own excuse to sidetrack your parents, you wouldn’t have needed anyone else’s help.”
Anna insisted on getting someone.
“You may not know, but my parents are actually very alert, if I were to send them away for no reason, it wouldn’t take ten minutes for them to turn back.”
Of course, even if they were looking for someone to help them, they would still turn back just the same.
But at least if there was someone, they would be able to help block and delay them when they turned back, and also tip her off.
“Then you could just take the child,” Uncle Kaohi continued, “wouldn’t that work?”
“I had thought of it that way, but since you got someone to do me a favor, I won’t have to.” Anna replied, “Well, Uncle Kaohi, hurry up and give me the contact information, please.”
Uncle Kaohi had no choice but to hand over the contact details to Anna.
With Anna’s repeated thanks, he hung up the phone.
Just as he put the phone down, he was hit hard on the head.
“You’re doing this on purpose aren’t you, it’s not possible that you’ve softened your heart and are planning to let Anna go?”
