Chapter 20
Aveline continued her investigation after leaving the cemetery, not having the time for sentimentality. She had intended to approach the people at her father’s company, but she received a call.
It was from a person her father had supported in the past, a child from the mountainous areas, Mason Scott. His voice sounded slightly anxious, “Miss Blackwood, I just returned to the country and heard about Mr. Blackwood’s serious illness. How is he doing?”
“Thank you for your concern. My father is still in the hospital, receiving treatment.”
“Ah, how could the heavens be so cruel to someone as good as Mr. Blackwood? Back when he supported. us and brought us out of the mountains, we wouldn’t have the life we do today without him.”
A thought crossed Aveline’s mind. If her father had started supporting impoverished mountain children many years ago, could it be possible that Layla Sterling, the woman who went missing, had crossed paths. with her father for this reason?
“Do you know the students my father supported?” Aveline asked.
“I’ve always been in touch with Mr. Blackwood on behalf of those students. I know most of them. However, when I went abroad for a few years, I lost contact with the students in the United States. If you need any help, financially or otherwise, I’ll be willing to go through hell for you.”
Aveline seized the opportunity, “I have a photo. Can you check if it’s someone my father once supported?”
“Sure, Miss Blackwood.”
Within half an hour, Mason sent her some information.
The girl in the photo had bright eyes and white teeth, sharing a strong resemblance to the little girl in the gravestone, particularly her eyes, which were strikingly similar to Alexander’s.
This girl was named Delilah, hailing from a barren mountain area. Anthony had been supporting her since twelve years ago. She had been an outstanding student and had even received scholarship offers from several top domestic and international universities while still in high school. She chose to study in the United States.
Perhaps she was the person Aveline was looking for. She quickly arranged to meet with Mason.
In a coffee shop, Mason arrived punctually. Aveline had only met him once a decade ago, and he was still
