Chapter 618 Why Won’t You Stop Bothering Me

Elspeth decided to head out with Callum to find the boy named Cameron Henning.

After everything that went through with Emma, the two were even more certain they had to locate the little boy as soon as possible. Perhaps that would be their key to unearthing the truth.

Although the boy’s address was fairly near Winthrop Residence, it wasn’t easy to find.

They drove for over an hour before they found the place.

After getting out of the car, Elspeth and Callum both frowned at the dilapidated buildings they were surrounded by.

Joella Henning didn’t seem like she was impoverished, so why did she choose to live in such a rundown and isolated place?

“Maybe… money wasn’t the reason why she chose this place. Maybe the fact that it’s so secluded makes it safer for her.”

This was only Callum’s guess, but Elspeth thought he was probably right.

Joella couldn’t even look them in the eye. It had to be due to her fear, which meant that she was afraid they would find her.

Why would she be afraid of us finding her?

The more Elspeth thought about this, the more puzzled she was. She was determined to locate Joella as soon as possible and get to the bottom of everything.

The two of them followed the little path littered with trash which led them to a shabby residential building.

According to the information they had, this building was the one they were looking for.

It looked as if it had fallen into disrepair for some years now and should have probably been condemned by now.

However, it hadn’t been demolished yet, which was probably due to the large population of residents living in extreme poverty in this area. There was no way for the building to be demolished safely.

The corridor was dark and damp. Even the light was flickering.

Joella was staying on the third floor which wasn’t that high up. Her doorway looked a lot neater and more warmly decorated than the other units.

The paint was peeling off the walls. Elspeth carefully made sure she didn’t touch the walls to avoid causing anything to fall off.

She raised her hand and knocked lightly on the aged door.

Soon, a voice rang out.
