Chapter 499

Lewis?

Claire's thoughts instantly flashed back to last night, when she'd run into Victor Lewis.

Could it have been Victor who called the police for her?

When the car finally pulled up in front of the Lewis estate, Claire had her answer. It was Victor.

She'd hoped Adah might have helped, but Adah, as usual, had managed to do absolutely nothing right.

If not for Victor, Claire suspected she'd be lying in a morgue by now.

Their arrival at the Lewis home was met with a warm, almost exuberant welcome for the Tempests.

Victor, spotting Claire, looked as if he might leap with excitement. He bounded over in three giant strides, grabbing both her hands in his own, his eyes shining

with disbelief and awe.

"Claire? Is it really you?"

"I can't believe it. In my lifetime, I finally get to meet our country's genius scientist."

"Professor Tempest, you're my hero. Truly, you're an inspiration for all of us."
