Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

Chapter 559

The sudden ringing of her phone startled Jean. When she saw that the caller was Hank, she quickly pressed the answer button. “Hey! You trying to give me a heart attack? Where the hell have you been? Why aren’t you at school yer?”

“With the speed you usually bike at, there’s no way you wouldn’t have arrived by now. Don’t tell me you got a flat tire? Where are you? I’ll come pick you up!” She fired off a series of questions the moment she picked up the call

But on the other end, there was only silence, as if the person had been caught off guard by her rapid questioning.

Jean found it strange. “Why aren’t you saying anything? You’re usually quite talkative.”

She waited patiently for Hank’s response.

After a few seconds, a young girl’s voice finally came through. “Hello, I’m not Hank. I’m Clara from Charity Orphanage

Jean froze for a moment. It took her a second to process before she asked, “Clara? Why is it you? Isn’t this Hank’s phone?”

Clara answered, “Yes, this is Hank’s phone. I don’t know why it was on the ground. I was outside picking flowers when I found his phone, backpack, and bicycle all just lying there.

“I have no idea where he went or why he didn’t take his things with him to school.”

Jean’s eyes widened in shock. Something must have happened. She quickly said, “Clara, listen carefully. Take Hank’s belongings back to the orphanage immediately and tell Maeve about this. And from now on, don’t go out alone unless necessary, okay?”

After hanging up the phone, Jean exhaled deeply. There were still a few minutes left before class ended, but she couldn’t wait any longer.

She rushed back into the classroom and told Cherise, “Ms. Leach, something might have happened to Hank.”

The entire class gasped, their faces filled with worry.

Cherise immediately stopped what she was doing. “Zander, take over for me,” she instructed before turning to Jean. “Let’s go.”

The two of them hurried to the parking lot and drove toward Charity Orphanage.
