What Separates Me and You

Chapter 84 I Lost My Pet

Conrad sighed and shook his head. “Nothing. What about on your end?”

Tyler had a rather ugly expression. He shook his head with a darkened expression. “These two girls sure can run.” He had contacted almost everyone he knew, yet he still couldn’t find any leads on their whereabouts. They might not even be in Elysium anymore.

“Yes, I find it truly strange. Let’s put Madam aside since she barely leaves the house. Miss Avery isn’t such a meticulous person. How could she have stayed under our radar?”

“You’re right,” Tyler said, deep in thought, “I think so too. Which is why I’m here to see Lewis and discuss this, but he isn’t picking up his phone, so I came here to look for him instead.”

No one knew Avery better than Tyler since he was her brother. Avery was carefree; she would not know anything about counter-surveillance, let alone escape Tyler’s and Lewis’ eyes. She had vanished completely in two short days. Even if they were discrete, they had to leave Elysium either by bus or flight, or they drove. No matter what, they still had to use money. They needed to get money; if not, how were they to survive? Strangely, there was no money trail at all.

Conrad said in hesitation, “President Alvarez had been sitting there for the entire afternoon. Are you sure you want to go in?”

Tyler hesitated for a few seconds, but in the end, he still entered. The issue needed to be resolved. If he didn’t face it, how would he settle it?

Tyler entered the dark house. He couldn’t find the light switches inside, so he could only head over to Lewis by memory.

“Lewis.”

The moment he spoke, the entire place was lit up so brightly that he could barely open his eyes. He blocked the light with his hand for a while, adjusting to the light, before putting his hand down and walking over, sitting opposite Lewis.

“I have some suspicions. I believe you should know about them too.”

Lewis turned his head slightly to look at Tyler. “Which are?”

Tyler said, “There is someone else who took Josephine away.”

“Where are they?”

Tyler gulped, not knowing how to answer.
