Under the heiress facade

Chapter 565

Chapter 565

One day had passed. The next day, Everly still had not returned, nor did she go to work at the clinic. That worried Catherine since she had watched Everly grow up, and they were very close.

She asked Hera, "Herie, Everly hasn't returned for two days. Could something have happened to her? She doesn't have many friends in Jedburgh."

The mention of friends suddenly reminded Catherine that Everly often mentioned that she was going to meet with a friend. That made Catherine turn to Wayne and ask, "Wayne, do you know the friend Everly has spoken about before?" "Everly never told me who it was," Wayne replied with a shake of his head.

Instantly, an image of Everly getting out of Marcus' car crossed his mind. He wondered if Everly had gone looking for Marcus.

"She's still not answering my calls or messages. Could something have happened to her? Why don't we call the police?" Catherine disconnected the call while looking at Hera.

"She's already a grown-up and can make her own decisions. If she doesn't want to come back, she'll still leave even if you forcefully bring her back here." After answering Catherine, Hera left to interview the applicants for the herbalist position. Seeing that made Catherine realize that Everly must have truly disappointed Hera and did not bring up the matter again.

Meanwhile, Wayne considered that Everly may have gone looking for Marcus, which made him angrier. But since he wasn't sure if he had guessed correctly, he did not mention it to Hera.
