PM, Willow Estates.

At this hour, the Evans family had just finished their dinner and they summoned Jack Lee to join them in the living room. They were eager to analyze the clues they had gathered over the past few days.

Samuel Evans, the Lord of the Evans family, had dutifully guarded the villa without straying for a single moment. His health had remarkably improved and his memory hadn’t deteriorated further. In fact, he had gradually regained the forgotten parts. Furthermore, as his condition steadily improved, his thinking and logic had sharpened, resurrecting his former style and commanding presence.

During this family gathering, Desmond began by updating them on his collaboration with the Moore Group.

Desmond declared, “Our partnership with the Moore family has officially entered the negotiation phase. Today, the legal teams from both sides commenced discussions to finalize the terms of our cooperation. Due to the Evans family’s earnest commitment of twelve percent this time, the atmosphere in the negotiations is exceptionally cordial. Once the terms are settled and the agreement signed, we can start the collaboration immediately.”

The old man nodded approvingly and spoke, “Considering the current circumstances, the Moore Group holds great significance for our Evans family. The benefactor deliberately left a clue about the Moore Group, indicating a desire to reveal information about his identity through them and perhaps manipulate their strings as well.”

The old man then turned his gaze to his second son, Marcus and said, “Although Marcus is typically in charge of all the Evans family’s external business ventures, this time is an exception. The collaboration with the Moore family is more than just a business project, it serves as a gateway for the Evans family. Desmond will oversee it until the end!”

Samuel had always emphasized harmony and unity within his family, assigning different responsibilities to his children, ensuring clarity and purpose for each one. This approach aimed to enable the children to support and assist one another when united, while also serving as a means of monitoring and restraining each other when conflicts arose.

Even though he knew that Desmond was responsible for driving the collaboration with the Moore Group, Samuel felt the need to justify his decision to Marcus, despite being aware that Marcus had no objections.

Marcus, understanding his father’s intentions, didn’t harbor any resentment towards his elder brother taking charge of the project. The Evans siblings had always remained united, thanks to the influence of their eldest sister, Lily. Although they had grown distant due to their individual families, Lily’s passing and the near-destruction of the Evans family by the Warriors Den had brought them closer than ever.

At this moment, Marcus cleared his throat and stated, “Dad, over the past few days, I’ve meticulously combed through Aurous Hill, exploring every aspect of life here, particularly focusing on the public transportation department, the social welfare department and the household registration department of that time. Regrettably, I haven’t uncovered any information about Astor.”

The old man let out a soft sigh, an outcome he had anticipated.

Mrs. Evans interjected, trying to console him, “Marcus, you mustn’t be disheartened. After all, Nori has been missing for twenty years. It’s unrealistic to expect us to find him within a few days. As I mentioned before, the search for Nori may take another twenty years.”

Marcus nodded resolutely and replied, “Mom, don’t worry. In my heart, the search for Nori remains a top priority.”

Suddenly, Tece recalled something and exclaimed, “Oh, Mom! I stumbled upon something rather peculiar today. It feels quite abnormal. Could you, Dad and brothers help me analyze it?”
