Chapter 143

My heart dipped in my chest, and I hurriedly ran over to Zion. “Rachel’s missing?”

“She’s been spending all her time at the coroner’s to look into Stephanie’s death and examine bodies with Dr. Sparks so that she could try and find the truth. Rachel even nearly fainted last night, which was why I told her to go home and rest.

He continued worriedly, “I was dealing with another case then. By the time I went looking for Rachel at noon, she’d already gone missing. I’ve been looking for her all this time, and no one else has seen her.”

Steven looked as if he wanted to say something to me.

“Let’s go to my place to find her!” I exclaimed to Zion, suddenly recalling something.” Oh, I meant… Stephanie Carlson’s home.”
