Chapter 1502

"...I didn't get his call," Mirabella replied, her face devoid of emotion.

"Oh, keep an eye on your phone. That silly boy has only been out in the world once, hasn't seen much. It'd be embarrassing to lose him," Paul said.

Mirabella pinched the bridge of her nose, responding in a rather perfunctory manner, "If there's nothing else...Paul, I'm going to hang up now."

Paul opened his mouth to say something but ended up just saying, "Okay."

Paul went to the family head's main house but didn't find anyone there. After a moment's thought, he went to the chapel behind the main house.

Inside the chapel, there were plaques commemorating the ancestors of their family, and the incense burner on the altar still had three sticks of incense burning, clearly just lit.
