Chapter 431: Wedding Night

Trevor said, "Mr. Handrix, I’ve already matched the dates of Patrick Hunt’s trip to the Eastern Country with the time Ms. Serena gave birth to a child. According to the data, his last trip was from Bayford City to the Eastern Country, and it was a few days before Ms. Serena gave birth. After that, there is no record of him—nothing at all, as if the man disappeared into thin air. We tried to dig further, but it’s hard to find anything unless that man died here in the Eastern City and no one knows."

Justin put the file back and leaned back in his chair. "If he was truly here and took away the child, I’m sure he knew who he was dealing with. He was in the special forces and was a trained spy, so he’s more than just capable of escaping without leaving any traces behind. Given his record during his service, one can see he was, in fact, a big deal."

Natalie looked at him. "If we can’t find him, we won’t be able to reach your sister either."

Justin simply stared at the file, unsure what to do at that moment, but then said, "For now, let’s focus on what we’re here for. About my sister—I’m sure that man must have kept her safe, and sooner or later, I’ll find them."

Inside the wedding hall, Grace was growing impatient about where her husband had disappeared to, leaving her all alone to deal with the guests who kept questioning her about him.

Grace’s mother took care of the situation by offering some valid excuses.

Aeldric and Aaron had returned to the wedding hall. In everyone’s eyes, he was Aiden. Grace quickly went to him, smiling, showing she was happy to see him back.

"Where have you been?" she asked softly, her eyes sparkling with love. "I was waiting for you."

"You should get used to waiting for me. It’ll be the same going forward," Aaron replied—only she could hear him.

Grace’s expression turned sad. "We’re married now, and so many people are here. Do you have to be like this and embarrass me in front of everyone?"

"Drop the act and get back to work," Aaron said coldly, then turned to talk to a guest who had approached them. Grace pulled herself together and resumed her part as the happy bride, speaking with the guests.

Get back to work? This was just a part of his work to him, and he didn’t bother to show anything different to Grace.
