Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 303 An Unexpected Account

However, that amount of money could easily buy a house in a second or third-tier city!

It was no small expense for ordinary people.

Vivian, a dancer, wouldn't have the confidence to spend so recklessly without Declan supporting her financially.

How could she afford it?

Grace frowned.

Suddenly, a thought struck her.

The hit-and-run driver was terminally ill, and both he and his wife were ordinary workers. Yet, their daughter studied music at a prestigious school in Wiltonshire. Music was an expensive field.

It wouldn't be easy for a working-class family to send their child to study in Wiltonshire.

Meanwhile, Vivian had just spent a small fortune.

Could this be a lead?

Violeta had the same thought.

Declan stepped aside to call Vivian, but it went unanswered.

Then he called Lucy.

Lucy answered, but she didn't know where Vivian was either.

Violeta looked at Grace and whispered, "Ms. Parker, if Vivian is with Simon, I might know where they are."

Grace was surprised. "You do?"
