Chapter 397

Chapter 397:

“Your mother once lived here.”

Her heart leaped, a mix of hope and excitement coursing through her. She gripped the note tightly, took a deep breath, and attempted to steady her emotions.

Eager for answers, she quickly dialed Noah’s number.

The phone rang endlessly, but there was no answer.
