Chapter 258

There were a lot of panels happening in the pack house.

Janet and Medline managed to get a speaker’s list from one of the staff and found out the panel that Daran would be at.

Nevertheless, she was absent from those 8 years of his life.

And she would never have the chance to figure out what happened to him in that period of time.

Janet took in a deep breath fought back the tears in his eyes and looked away from

“He can’t be too far away here somewhere,” said Janet with a frown.
