Chapter 3

At the very moment that Madeline was busy on her laptop, Thomas Grant was in the lobby of the Imperia airport. He had on a baseball cap and was fully masked up. He was also furtively trying to hide, afraid that his mother's employees would recognize him.

He really wished that they would stop pursuing him!

He had gotten rid of all the electronic devices he carried the moment he landed in Imperia, but there were still at least a dozen people on his tail. There was nowhere for him to hide!

This wouldn't do at all. He had to find a way to shake off Madeline's employees, or else he would have no energy left to look for his biological father, that scumbag who had turned his back on his wife and children.

All at once, an announcement coming from the video screens in the lobby caught Thomas's attention, and his eyes lit up at once.

"Newsflash! The prominent Quincy family has just reported a missing person case. Young Colton Quincy was last seen at the North Hill Cemetery, and his whereabouts are currently unknown. As today is the 5th anniversary of Gordon Quincy's death, the family was visiting the grave to pay their respects when Colton went missing. The family has offered a one million dollar reward for the boy's safe return. The authorities urge anyone who has information about this matter to come forward."

A picture of Colton flashed on the screen immediately after the announcement.

Thomas froze in his tracks and stared in disbelief. Why did the young Quincy boy look exactly like him?

Was it possible that they were actually related by blood and had the same father?!

Thomas immediately went to search for information about the Quincy family, but the only thing he could find out was that Colton's father was a certain Noah Quincy. Unfortunately, there were no photographs of the man.

Could this Noah person be the scumbag he was looking for?

If that was the case, then he should get to work immediately. If he managed to sneak into the Quincy house somehow, he would be able to investigate further into his exact relationship to Noah. Not only that, but he would also be able to hide from his pursuers, killing two birds with one stone!
