Chapter 33 Sinking Without a Trace

Caroline’s expression twisted with disdain. “If that’s the case, then you better make sure to discipline her properly from now on. Tell her to stop finding fault with me all the time!”

Reuben’s voice came through the line. “Mr. Jordan, the deputy dean has passed away, so we couldn’t confirm anything. However, we did find the teacher who taught Ms. Love that year.”

He continued, “She explained that Ms. Love was bullied during that time, which caused her to suffer from some sort of trauma. But the orphanage covered it up.”

A dark cloud crossed Evan’s face.

“There’s another matter,” Reuben added.

“The dean informed me that the girl with the red mole on her earlobe went by the name Lyra. It’s possible that Ms. Love changed her name after being adopted.”

Deep lines etched across Evan’s forehead. “Did you manage to contact her adoptive parents?”

Reuben replied, “I had someone reach out to them, but by the time our contact went to their address, they had already moved without leaving any traces behind.”

“Keep investigating.” Evan commanded firmly.
