Chapter 9 Finding Her

"Mr. Douglas, we've found her." Liam, fresh off a phone call, turned to Ethan with excitement. "Felix confessed!"

Ethan snorted, the sarcasm biting. "Who?"

"It's Harper Brown, the heiress of the Brown family," Liam said, equally astonished. Harper had been dealing with depression and had a suicide attempt six years ago.

Liam slapped his forehead, annoyed he hadn't made the connection earlier. "Miss Harper's suicide attempt was after that gala six years ago."

Ethan furrowed his brow. "Turn around. We're heading to the Brown estate."
