By now, he had disappeared from sight, but the image of his retreating figure lingered in her mind.

She compared it to the person in the photo-almost an exact match.

But relying on mere similarities in body shape seemed unreliable.

After all, many people share similar features, and even their postures can resemble one another.

Isabel touched her chin thoughtfully, pondering. After a pause, she made a decision. She would find a way to visit the Nelsons' place and look deeper into this.

She suddenly remembered asking Beowulf to investigate the Nelsons before. She wondered if he had discovered where their villa was located.

Just then, the sound of a phone ringing broke her concentration.

For a second, Isabel thought it was her own phone, since the ringtone was familiar. But then she saw Xander pull his phone out and answer the call.

On top of that, she noticed that his phone case matched hers exactly. She clearly remembered him never/ using phone cases before.
