Chapter 431 He Would Never Abandon You

The weather today was gloomy and overcast, a stark contrast to the clear blue skies yesterday.

It was autumn in Doveston; as soon as the sun set, the air turned chilly. As Sophia stood by the river watching the waves crash, the frigid air sent shivers down her spine.

Lukas quickly retrieved a blanket from the car, draping it over her shoulders. As she snuggled into its warmth, she looked at the man and said gratefully, "Thank you, Lukas."

"Even though I never liked Alexander, I'm sure he is fine," Lukas assured. Despite the implausibility of his words, one had to hold on to the belief that miracles could happen.

Sophia had never been religious, superstitious, or a believer in miracles. However, at this moment, she could only hope that her prayers were heard and that a miracle occurred.

After all, Alexander was still young.

"Ms. Yarrow."

Yvonne appeared to have rushed there, and when she realized Sophia was safe, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Sophia smiled as she turned to face the woman. "You're here, Ms. Leighton."

Having accompanied Sophia for many years, Yvonne discovered that the woman smiled often. However, with her experience, she could distinguish a genuine smile from a fake one at one glance.

Yet, she could not tell whether Sophia was smiling genuinely at the moment.

While Yvonne was thinking about what to say, Sophia continued, "I sent you a picture of the woman who left the hotel with Alexander last night. I want to know everything about the woman as soon as possible. Also, I know that you are in close contact with Felix recently; please ensure that any news related to Alexander is kept under wraps."

As she spoke, the smile plastered on her face vanished. Sophia turned to face the river, the wind blowing cold against her face as she remained expressionless.

Yvonne felt her heart sink, but she knew it was more useful to quickly get on with the investigation than to offer words of consolation. "All right, Ms. Yarrow. I'll have someone look into this."

Sophia nodded before turning to Lukas. "Ms. Leighton will take care of the matter. There's no need for you to intervene, Lukas."

After all, the man's political career could be impacted if he was found to be involved.
