The three of them quickly hopped on the plane to head back.

Years ago, Gregory had passed away here while getting treatment. His parents believed his spirit still lingered in this place, so every summer, they would return to stay for a while. Elsa, Gregory’s girlfriend, cáme along, even though he had already passed.

When they arrived at the hotel, Calvin remembered how Gregory’s parents looked so heartbroken outside the police station carlier. He asked Quinlyn to go upstairs and call Elsa for him. He needed to talk to her.

Since Quinlyn had already agreed to help, she didn’t mind going through the trouble. She nodded, quickly got out of the car, and went inside. She asked the front desk to call Elsa’s room, but no one answered.

“Sorry, our manager just knocked on her door, but there was no answer. Let me check the security footage for you, Ms. Yates,” the staff member said.

The hotel had business ties with Zhao Shi, so the staff was very efficient. In just a few minutes, they discovered Elsa had left the lobby about fifteen minutes ago.

“The other guest in a different room is still here. She seemed a bit unwell, and not long ago, she came down to ask where the nearest pharmacy was. If you’d like, we can check with her about Ms. Yates,” the staff member offered.

Quinlyn shook her head and walked back to the car, her brow furrowing deeper.

“She’s not here. We can wait. What’s wrong?” Jolie asked, noticing something was off with Quinlyn.

“It’s not right.” Quinlyn felt uneasy. She stared at the hotel from the car window. “She comes here every year with Gregory’s parents. She should have been by his mom’s side, especially if she was sick. But now, she’s gone.”

Jolie instinctively replied, “Maybe she went out for something.”

“She’s not from here.” Quinlyn pointed out the key issue.

Elsa only came here because of Gregory. She didn’t have any family or friends here, and there was no work reason for her to be around. So, her leaving like this felt really strange.

Jolie began to sense something was wrong, too. “She has a history of depression. We should call Bennett to help find her.”

They couldn’t file a missing person report yet, since it hadn’t been twenty–four hours, so now they had to use their connections.
