Claire offered a small smile in return. "Thank you, Mr. Saint Laurent. It's been quite a journey.'

His curiosity getting the better of him, Mr. Saint Laurent leaned forward slightly. "May I ask where you went for three years? I heard about your parents passing during that time." Claire's ears perked up at the mention of her parents. "Where did you hear about that?

Mr. Saint Laurent chuckled softly. "Well, it's a bit of a story. 2 years ago, I overheard a conversation while I was at the police station. I was there to report one of my employees, but as luck would have it, I caught wind of your parents names being mentioned." Claire raised an eyebrow, slightly amused. "So, you were eavesdropping?"

Mr. Saint Laurent nodded, a twinkle of humor in his eyes. "It was my first time, I assure you."

Curiosity gnawed at Claire. "What did the police say about my parents?"

Mr. Saint Laurent leaned back, recalling the moment. "They were speaking in hushed tones, so I couldn't catch everything, apologize for this old man ear. But when I heard your parents names, I couldn't ignore it. I approached them, and they seemed a bit taken aback." "What did they tell you?"

"They mentioned that your parents bodies were never found, but they did identify the car," Mr. Saint Laurent explained gently.

Claire's breath caught in her throat as she absorbed the new information. "I see."

Mr. Saint Laurent nodded sympathetically. "I tried calling you multiple times, but there was no response. No one seemed to know where you were."
