“Wait!” Natalie called out to him again when she recalled something.

Silas stopped in his tracks. “Yes? What is it, madam?”

“Don't let anyone know about me and Connor returning to the country. We won't be able to keep Shane's disappearance a secret if they see us return without him,” Natalie said while massaging her temples.

Silas nodded. “Don't worry, madam. I've already taken that into consideration and made the arrangements.”

Natalie smiled. “That's good to know.”

“I shall excuse myself, then,” Silas said before he left.

Natalie brought Connor upstairs to get some rest in the room.

In the afternoon, the two of them headed over to the burnt-down industrial park with the manager leading the way.

Natalie shuddered a little when she looked at the ruins after the fire.

The entire industrial park is completely burnt to the ground, which goes to show how scary the fire was! Good thing there's a river nearby that serves as a water supply for the industrial park, or Shane would surely have been burnt to death!

The thought of that caused Natalie's chest to ache so much that she went pale instantly.

“Mommy?” Connor called out to her worriedly when he noticed the change in her expression.

Natalie shook her head. “I'm fine.”

She then turned toward the manager standing beside her and said, “Show me where Shane jumped into this river.”
