[Lola]
Lola kept tapping the earpiece in her ear, but it still wasn't working. Her expression dulled with every tap, and she let out a heavy sigh each time.
"What the heck?" she grumbled. "Why is this thing still not working?"
The Bellemonte captives looked at her, then exchanged glances. They shrugged before shifting their attention to where she was sprawled in the truck. The lackey who had joined them in the back moved a little closer to her.
"Boss Pretty," he cleared his throat. "Is something wrong?"
Lola lazily blinked at him. "This thing isn't working." She pointed at her earpiece. "There should've been a connection by now."
She had already added a grace period for communication to be established, but even then, nothing. This couldn't go on. She already had two of the three Bellemonte guys.
If she were lucky, then Izu and the others must have found—or at least gotten a lead on—where the remaining one was.
