Chapter 887

Suddenly, she was jolted and sprang up from her chair.

Jonathan hurried to Rosalie and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s Yvette!” Rosalie exclaimed, pointing to the woman approaching Zachary. Despite the somewhat unclear surveillance footage and the changes that had occurred in her appearance over the past five years, Rosalie had no difficulty recognizing her at a glance.

After all, Yvette represented a trauma deeply etched in her memory.

Jonathan narrowed his eyes as he watched the surveillance camera alongside Rosalie. When Yvette beckoned a child over to Zachary, Rosalie was stunned.

Rosalie remembered this kid to be the little boy who had performed exceptionally well on the piano at that exhibition on that particular day.

She wondered, ‘Is this child related to Yvette? Could this child be Yvette’s?

Since Yvette brought the child to meet Zachary, does that imply the child might also be Zachary’s?”

All these guesses swirled through Rosalie’s mind, and soon someone found the surveillance footage of Yvette’s second encounter with Zachary.

Jonathan instructed someone to use the surveillance footage to trace Yvette’s whereabouts.

Indeed, using the surveillance footage made it considerably easier to track Yvette’s movements. They discovered that she had stayed at a budget inn, but had already checked out before Zekiah was kidnapped.

As the investigation progressed, they encountered some unexpected gains. They finally managed to find out where Yvette had been in hiding in recent years.

They learned that she was residing in Lostaria, and she had a five-year-old son named Felix Hamilton. Felix had never attended a formal kindergarten. Yvette had encountered a retired piano teacher in the shanty town where they resided in Lostaria, and Felix had been learning piano from that teacher. At that moment, the kidnappers sent an email to Carlos’ mailbox from an overseas location. It was evident that they had taken precautions against surveillance.
