The next morning, after hanging up with Diana and explaining his plans for the day, Maximus left home. Two hours of driving later, he arrived in Everstone. From the little research he had done the night before, he knew he had to leave his car behind and cross the pedestrian bridge that led into the town.

It was a small place, with few residents. Finding Aria Fairchild wouldn’t be difficult.

As soon as he stepped into the town, it felt like he had traveled back in time. He couldn’t deny that the place was charming, even with its old, worn structures. But one question kept nagging at him–why had Aria, Peter’s mother, chosen to live here?

He couldn’t imagine what had gone through her mind, but one thing was clear–she wanted to disappear.

Maximus made his way to the municipal office, which, according to his research, handled the town’s affairs and important decisions.

“Good morning,” he greeted as he walked into the office.

“Good morning! How can we help you?” a friendly woman replied.

“I’m looking for someone. I know she lives in this town, but I don’t know where to find her.”

The woman hesitated slightly. “Hmm… Who are you looking for?”

“Her name is Aria Fairchild,” Maximus said, pulling out the locket and showing her the photograph inside.
