She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

Chapter 222

Donovan's Restaurant was closed for the festive season

Claire, who had been busy for the past half a year, could finally rest comfortably for a while and prepare for Christmas.

After breakfast in the morning, she carried a basket and was about to go out. "Im going to get groceries. What do you feel like eating

The few people who didn't need to go out said, 'Everything you cook is delicious. Buy whatever you want to eat."

Arthur gulped down a large bottle of milk and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. "Let me drive you there."

"There's no need for that. Claire shook her head. "This place is not far from the market, and I'll take my time grocery shopping. When you're free, make a list of Christmas goods. Remember to write down anything you want. We'll get them tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Don't worry about the money."

Then, she held her grocery basket and slowly walked out.

The majority of the population in Kitmore City came from other parts of the country. Those who are born and bred here were less than half of it. Many people's hometowns were in the countryside, As soon as it was Christmas, the entire city felt especially quiet. It was the same for Mid-Level Mountain Garden Claire strolled down the street and barely saw anyone.

It was not until she arrived at the market that the surroundings became lively.

She was about to go to the seafood section to pick some fish and prawns when her phone rang. It was an unknown number.

It can't be a scam call or a sales call, can it?' she thought.

While she was hesitating, someone squeezed past her and quietly stuffed a "button" into her pocket.

She didn't notice that. After pondering for a bit, she answered the call. "Hello?"

The person on the other end of the line asked, "Are you a family member of Zilvia Donovan, the girl who disappeared 13

years ago?"

Claire's eyes widened and her breathing hastened. After a few seconds, she said with a trembling voice, "Y-Yes. I-I'm her mother. Do you know where Zilvia is? Have you heard from her

The other party said, "I stumbled upon a photo of a seven or eight-year-old girl. She looks very much like Zilvia, whom I once saw on television. But so many years have passed. I'm not sure if they're the same person.

"Do you have a photo of Zilvia? If you do, can you send it to me'll compare that with the photo I saw."

"Yes, yes, yes. I have m-many..." Claire's voice was trembling and getting incoherent. Her hand rubbed her body reflexively. I'll send it to you now. Please, wait

After saying that, her body stiffened.

She didn't have Zilvia's photo on her.

In order to avoid triggering strong memories of Zilvia, Claire didn't have photos of Zilvia on her phone either.

For the same reason, everyone in the Donovan family didn't store photos of Zilvia on their phones. Plus, it had been so many years.

She was so transfixed that she didn't know what to do with her hands. After pacing back and forth a few times at the same spot, she sobered up a little. She muttered, "I need to hurry home to look for the photos" Then, she quickly walked to the side of the road, got into a taxi, and went straight to Mid-Level Mountain
