Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 841

Just after 8:30 p.m., Gilbert arrived at Ivy Hollow to meet with Nolan. The moment the car stopped, Nolan approached and got in.

"Mr. Nine," he began as he closed the door, "our team confirmed that Malvina was spotted here last night with Galen." "Any clues on their whereabouts?"

Nolan shook his head. "We've already checked the Johnson Mansion owned by the Clayton family, but Galen wasn't there," he explained, gesturing around them. "Malvina isn't entirely clueless, Mr. Nine. Look at Ivy Hollow-surrounded by hills and mountains. It's the perfect place to hide someone."

Ivy Hollow was indeed a basin encircled by mountains. Gilbert scanned the area, his brow furrowing deeper with concern.

"Our team is searching," Nolan assured him, "but it'll take time."

Gilbert remained silent, his expression stern as he thought deeply. Galen was Malvina's son; she was only trying to prevent a surgery, not harm him. After Sherilyn's dramatic visit, Malvina likely feared exposing Galen's location, hence she wouldn't appear in person. Following Sherilyn had yielded no results. However, Malvina wouldn't abandon her son. Unable to act herself, she would enlist help...

After a moment, Gilbert glanced at Nolan. "Keep an eye on townsfolk connected to the Claytons, like relatives or friends around Malvina's age."

Nolan understood clearly. "Got it, Mr. Nine. I'll arrange it right away." He stepped out of the car.

His nerves were taut, causing his head to throb with pain. He was exhausted but couldn't
