Chapter: 413
“What has she been up to these past few days?” Theodore asked Horace, turning to him.
Horace knew exactly who he was referring to, so he answered almost immediately, “Mrs. Anderson has
been working with the crew recently, but I’m not entirely sure because you told me not to monitor her
this time. So I didn’t keep an eye on her.”
Theodore nodded in response. He got into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce.
“Where are we going, sir?” Horace turned around from the front passenger seat and asked.

was Ariana.
It bothered Theodore that he wasn’t aware of what she was doing when he was away. Did she miss

He swiped the screen and brought up his contact list. He was about to call Ariana back.
But Horace handed him a yellow envelope before he could. “We received this today.
It’s an urgent document that came from the same city.”

There were two photographs with dates on the back. The dates indicated they were taken two days
