Chapter 11

When Luke heard that, he remained on the spot in front of the couch.

Zayn frowned. "I asked you to call her, didn't you hear me?"

Luke sighed once again. "Sir, please have a look upstairs."

"What's upstairs?"

Luke wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Seeing his behavior, Zayn was pissed for some reason. He pulled on his tie as he took big strides upstairs.

When he pushed the bedroom door open, he was stunned.

Why was it so empty?

"Where's the custom doll I gave Josephine?"

He personally custom-made it for her, which looked exactly like the young Josephine.

Luke lowered his head. "I don't know."

Zayn suddenly had a bad feeling. He sped toward the closet and opened it. There were a lot of clothes, yes, but those were his.

He found that none of Josephine's clothes was there.

Even if she was leaving home, she wouldn't take all her clothes, right?

He squatted down and looked at the drawer. Well, her bras were gone too.

Everything was gone.

He then ran to the door and pushed Luke away before he went into the walk-in closet. It was as if nobody had used it before-clean and quite empty. "Where's Josephine's stuff?"

Luke slowly spoke up, "Some were sold by Mrs. Forbes while some were thrown away. She took some with her too."
