Stella stayed and waited in the resting room after the meeting started, she stared at the mobile on her knees.

She never intended to check Clarence's mobile, she just wanted to prevent him from communicating with people from City N.

Stella took a deep breath, reached for her mobile, called Sherry, and asked her to go now.

Sherry was prepared and departed once she received her call.

Stella sat in the resting room looking at the time passing while started her wait.

Clarence's mobile had never rung once the entire time.

About an hour later, Sherry called Stella.

She felt slightly nervous and answered it at once, "Sherry, how was it?"

"I've checked each apartment, there is a middle-aged couple, a single man, and the other two were not in. I asked the couple, they said a young couple and someone who always goes on business trips lives in another two apartments. They said the person who always goes overseas hasn't been back since two months ago."

Sherry continued, "I met the security guard on patrol, they didn't know about the person you mentioned and has never heard baby's crying sound."

Stella pressed her lips, she didn't know if she should be happy or sad about this.

So, this was another coincidence.

The apartment card she picked up did not belong to Amanda.

But she…

Sherry added, "Stella if you are still worried, I'll wait until the evening to check or ask for the CCTV recording?"

"There's no need, just go home," Stella said.

Stella flung herself against the sofa after she hung up, she felt exhausted and pressed gently on her glabella.

If this continued, she would be under too much pressure, overthinking, and could fall sick.

She felt like she was closed to the truth every time, but regardless of asking Clarence or investigating on her own, the results were always not what she had hoped for.

Every single time.
