Chapter 432 Only Love

On the third day of Alexander's disappearance, Yvonne finally uncovered Qahira's identity.

Her parents were immigrants who settled in Ustrana many years ago. Qahira was of Chanaean ethnicity, born and raised in Ustrana. When she was ten years old, she traveled to Chanaea with her parents for a vacation. Since then, she never stepped foot into the country again.

Qahira's familial connections weren't intricate. Beyond her relatives, her circle comprised childhood friends and classmates. Despite Yvonne's exhaustive search, she could not find anyone who had crossed paths with Alexander.

Felix had also sent someone to check on Alexander's overseas companies. Similarly, there were no signs of anything amiss.

There was no clear indication of whether Alexander's incident was an accident or foul play. The truth remained elusive.

And the one person who could potentially shed light on the mystery, Qahira, seemed to have vanished without a trace. Both Yvonne and Felix's men had scoured everywhere to find her, but their efforts had yielded no results.

No one knew if Qahira was dead or alive.

Yvonne grew increasingly concerned as Sophia remained silent for a prolonged period of time after learning of the findings. Worried about her friend, Yvonne couldn't help but say, "Ms. Yarrow, sometimes no news might be good news."

In response, Sophia looked at Yvonne with a faint smile. "Yeah, I know." After a brief pause, she added, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll be making a trip to Jadeborough tomorrow. Please help me to continue investigating the matter, Ms. Leighton."

She needed to keep Sunshine Group and Odyssey running. Hence, she couldn't stay in Doveston indefinitely, even if it was for Alexander's sake.

"Rest assured, Ms. Yarrow. We will update you once there is further progress in the investigation."

"Okay. Let's eat." Sophia had lost her appetite over the past few days, and her meals had been meager. But now, with a slight hunger gnawing at her, she lowered her head and ate in silence.

After dinner, Yvonne and Sophia parted ways.

Sophia spotted the Dawson family's car as soon as she stepped out of the restaurant. It turned out that Perrin, who was worried about her, had arranged for the driver to pick her up.

"Hi, Ms. Yarrow," Alfred greeted before opening the car door for Sophia to enter.

The woman responded with a smile, "Thank you, Alfred."

She slumped into her seat, her gaze unfocused as she stared out the window.

As Perrin caught sight of Sophia's return to the Dawson residence, a wave of relief washed over him. He asked, "Have you had dinner? If you are still hungry, I can ask the servants to prepare supper for you."

Sophia's appetite had waned recently, so her complexion had become pallid. Even though Perrin was concerned about her well-being, he knew better than to discuss the matter.

Sophia shook her head and replied, "I have taken my dinner, Granddad. Shall we play a game of chess?"

She knew that Perrin was worried about her. It had been three days since Alexander's disappearance; it was time for Sophia to regain her composure. After all, she couldn't afford to stay dejected indefinitely.

Upon hearing her offer, Perrin could barely hide his joy. "You have a morning flight to catch tomorrow. Will it affect your rest?"
