Chapter 353: Ian Brookes

At the entrance of the art gallery, Ian Brookes held the copied painting Tina had given him and sighed softly. He had been standing there for hours after everyone else had left, staring at the painting. The more he looked at it, the more familiar the figure in the painting seemed to him. But clearly, this figure was different from Alina. Perhaps he was just getting old and mistaken.

When Alina went missing, she was only ten years old. The figure in the painting appeared to be around thirty-five, a significant age difference that made it hard for him to identify any resemblance. Was it just because of that mole? Just then, a man in a black suit hurried over. "Dad, I only lost sight of you for a moment, and you came here? If something happened to you, my brothers would tear my head off." He was Ian Brookes' fourth son, Jack. Ian Brookes glanced at him with an air of authority. "What? Do I need your permission to go somewhere?"

"That's not what I meant!" Jack said helplessly. Ever since their sister went missing, their father had been displeased with his sons for over thirty years, never showing them a kind face.

Jack sighed and said, "Your health isn't good. You should let me know where you're going so we don't worry."

Ian Brookes snorted coldly. "Instead of worrying about me, go find Alina!"

"We've already sent people out to look again," Jack replied.

Ian Brookes looked down at the painting in his hand and handed it to Jack after a moment of silence. "Check on this person. The owner of this figure is deceased. She has a daughter named Tina Reed." Jack glanced at the painting and was stunned. He then exclaimed, "This mole! It's exactly like our sister's! Dad, how did you get this painting?"

"Why do you ask so many questions?" Ian Brookes shot him a cold look and said expressionlessly, "Tina has a fiancé named Jared Farrell. Look into them and see if you can find any clues about Alina!"

"Alright! I'll have someone investigate immediately!" Jack said excitedly. After their sister went missing years ago, they had exhausted all family resources but found nothing. Now they finally had a trace but suddenly lost it again-until they got this painting.

The mole behind the ear in the painting was identical to their sister's. Jack had a feeling they might have found a clue about her.
