Chapter 14: Chapter 13: Midnight Reverie

After bidding farewell to Auntie Nan, Elliana Lyle planned to first check Nancy’s entry and exit records.

She didn’t quite believe that Nancy would be someone to cut off contact with Auntie Nan.

She returned to Norman Bennett’s office, and by 11 o’clock, Norman Bennett was back.

"Norman Bennett, can you find someone to help me check a person’s entry and exit records?" Elliana thought Norman surely knew someone, better than asking her dad.

Initially, Elliana planned to tell Mr. Lyle about this, since he had acquaintances, but then she thought he’d definitely ask a lot of questions, making it troublesome and inefficient.

"Sure, checking on your high school friend Nancy?" Norman Bennett had already guessed, and was just confirming.

He knew Nancy too, as he used to frequently pick up Elliana from school, and Nancy and Elliana were almost inseparable.

"Yes, she’s gone abroad, and I’d like to know which country she went to." Elliana replied.

Norman Bennett called Raymond Wood in, said a couple of words, and then Raymond left.

"He’s gone." Seeing Elliana still scrolling through her phone, Norman Bennett reminded her.

"Oh, just a moment." Elliana didn’t look up at Norman Bennett, instead focusing on her phone screen, chatting with Joy Lyle.

Joy told her she’d return to the Lyle Residence tomorrow and had also gotten the script for the second female lead in "South Wind Song."

And how could Elliana let Eleanor Llyod play the lead? It was just to let some people be proud for a while.

After sending the last message, Elliana turned off the phone screen and wanted to put it in her pocket, only to find her tracksuit had no pockets.

"Hold my phone for me, I’m afraid it’ll fall." Elliana trusted Norman Bennett entirely as she handed him the phone.

They left Melody Harmony, and Elliana instinctively frowned; it was so hot this noon.

As soon as she stepped outside, beads of sweat began to form on her forehead, while Norman Bennett seemed unfazed by the heat. His fair skin was delicate and smooth, with no visible pores or sweat.

Once in the car, Elliana felt alive again; nothing beats air conditioning!
