Chapter 91: Calm before the storm

MILLER GROUP HEADQUARTERS…Monday Morning…The atmosphere inside the executive boardroom was heavier than usual. Several financial reports lay scattered across the polished conference table, their contents painting a picture no one wanted to discuss.Owen Miller stood silently at the head of the table, one hand tucked into his pocket while the other rested against the back of his chair."We've confirmed it," the Chief Financial Officer said carefully, sliding another report across the table. "The suspension of our joint projects with Viremont Holdings has already begun affecting investor confidence."Another director adjusted his glasses. "Our stock opened four point three percent lower this morning. And we've received cancellation notices from two overseas partners.""They're backing out?" another executive asked."They're calling it... a precaution."A bitter laugh escaped someone near the end of the table. "Precaution.""What they really mean is that they don't want to be associate

RINA'S APARTMENT…Monday Afternoon…Rina had gone to work, leaving only Amber at home. From the balcony of the apartment, Amber stood watering the potted flowers lined neatly along the railing. A gentle breeze lifted a few loose strands of her hair as she hummed softly to herself, completely unaware that someone was watching.Across the street, partially concealed behind the tinted windows of a dark gray SUV, a man lowered a pair of binoculars. He wasn't dressed like a detective, nor did he look like a criminal.In a plain black shirt, faded jeans, and a baseball cap pulled low over his face, he blended effortlessly into the afternoon traffic. He picked up a camera fitted with a long lens.Click. Every movement was captured with practiced precision. The man lowered the camera and glanced at the notebook resting on the passenger seat.Amber Rose Adao.Age.Height.Known address.Daily routine.The pages were filled with neatly written observations. He uncapped his pen and scribbled dow

MIRIAM'S HOUSE…Tuesday Morning…The southern district of Ravelle was far quieter than the bustling city center. Small houses lined the peaceful streets, their gardens blooming beneath the gentle morning sun.Leon parked his car in front of a modest bungalow he had visited only once before. The flower shop Miriam ran beside the house was yet to be opened. After switching off the engine, he stepped out and walked toward the front door of the house instead.Before he could knock a second time, the door opened. "Mr. Viremont," Miriam smiled warmly."Good morning, Miriam," Leon greeted, returning a small smile."Please, come in," she stepped aside, paving the way for him inside the house."Thank you,” Leon said as he stepped inside."I wasn't expecting to see you again so soon," Miriam admitted as she led him into the living room.Leon offered an apologetic smile. "I know. I'm sorry for coming unannounced.""Oh, don't apologize." She motioned for him to sit. "You're always welcome here.

Chapter 94: Finding Elizabeth.

She blinked. "A photograph?"Leon nodded. "Yes. Anything at all. It doesn't matter how old it is.”She frowned thoughtfully. "I think..." Without finishing her sentence, she reopened the wooden box and began sorting carefully through its contents. After nearly a minute, she stopped."There…" she whispered.She pulled out an old photograph with slightly curled edges. Two young women stood beside a river, laughing at something outside the frame. She handed the picture to Leon. He took it from her and stared at itm One was unmistakably Miriam. The other… Leon instantly knew."This is Elizabeth?"Miriam smiled sadly. "She was twenty-four when that picture was taken, three years before her disappearance. We'd already been friends for a few years by then. It was taken during a picnic by the river. She hated having her picture taken, so this is one of the very few photographs I have of her."Leon studied the young woman carefully. She stood beside Miriam beneath the bright afternoon sun, dr

UNKNOWN LOCATION… Thursday afternoon. The room was dimly lit, its only source of light streaming through a narrow gap in the curtains. A man in a black jacket stood silently beside a table, waiting.Several seconds later, the sound of approaching heels echoed through the hallway. After a moment, the door clicked open. Isabel Miller stepped inside, dressed in an elegant ivory blouse tucked into a fitted black skirt. Dark sunglasses concealed her eyes, and her expression remained unreadable as she walked toward the table.The man straightened immediately. "Miss Miller."She removed her sunglasses and placed them on the table. "Report."Without wasting a second, the man slid a thick brown envelope across to her. "We've maintained surveillance on Amber Rose Adao for the past few days."Isabel opened the envelope. Inside were dozens of glossy photographs. Amber standing on Rina's balcony, watering flowers, Amber leaving a neighborhood grocery store with two shopping bags in her hands, Amb

Chapter 96: The unknown caller.

Amber glanced at the screen. Her brows knitted together as she saw the caller ID."Who's calling? Is it Zara?" Rina asked between mouthfuls.Amber shook her head. "No… it's an unknown number.”The phone continued vibrating across the table."Answer it," Rina urged. "It could be someone important."Amber hesitated before picking it up. "Hello?"There was no response.She frowned. "Hello? Who's this?"Still, nothing. All she could hear at the other end of the phone was the faint sound of breathing. She slowly lowered the phone from her ear and checked the screen to make sure the call hadn't disconnected.It was still connected."...Hello?"The line went dead.She stared at the phone for a few seconds before placing it back on the table."Wrong number?" Rina asked."I... don't know. They didn't say anything."Rina frowned."They just... breathed into the phone." A small shiver crawled up Amber's spine. It was like a replay in her memory. She had experienced the same thing in Leon's place

Chapter 97: apology.

She pulled the phone away from her ear for a brief second and glanced at the screen again.“Is everything okay?” the woman asked.The moment the question came, the voice sounded familiar. "Ma'am Alice?" Amber asked uncertainly."Yes," Alice replied gently. "It's me."Amber blinked several times before letting out a quiet breath. "Oh..." She closed her eyes briefly, guilt washing over her. "I'm sorry," she said, bringing the phone back to her ear. "I thought you were someone else."A small laugh came from the other end. "I can tell."Amber pressed her lips together. "I'm really sorry.""It's alright, dear," Alice said warmly. "Considering everything that's happened, I can't blame you."From the kitchen doorway, Rina watched Amber's expression soften. She mouthed silently, Who is it?Amber covered the microphone with one hand."It's Ma'am Alice," she whispered.Rina's eyebrows lifted in surprise before she quietly returned to drying the dishes, giving Amber some privacy."I hope I didn

Chapter 98: the search continues.

LEON'S RESIDENCE…Sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Leon's study. The room was quiet except for the steady rhythm of fingers moving across a keyboard.Seated behind a broad walnut desk, Leon focused intently on the laptop before him. Several documents were open across the screen—financial projections, business proposals, and handwritten notes scattered beside the computer. Although he had stepped down as CEO of Viremont Holdings, remaining idle had never been part of his nature.Over the past few days, he had begun outlining plans for a new venture. Nothing had been finalized yet, but putting his thoughts on paper and practising his piano gave him something productive to focus on while everything else in his life slowly settled.He paused, rereading a paragraph before making another correction. Just then, his phone vibrated against the desk.Daniel Brooks.Leon immediately reached for it. "Daniel.""Good morning, Mr. Viremont.""Morning. What have you got?""We

Chapter 99: Elizabeth Morris.

It took a while before the man came out of the room. While he was away, Daniel glanced toward the hallway before lowering his voice. "Do you think we're finally onto something?"Leon kept his eyes fixed on the doorway. "I don't know."Daniel let out a quiet breath. "I've been involved in hundreds of investigations over the years," he admitted, "but this one is different."Leon turned slightly. "How so?""I mean… we're not chasing a criminal." Daniel paused. "We're trying to find someone who spent more than two decades making sure she couldn't be found."Leon nodded in agreement. “You're right. But I'm certain we'll find her very soon.”Before Daniel could respond, the sound of something heavy being dragged across the floor came from the house.A few moments later, the elderly man reappeared, slightly out of breath, carrying a dusty cardboard box with both hands. He set it carefully on the coffee table.A cloud of dust rose into the air, he coughed as he waved a hand in front of his fa

Chapter 100: Grace Morris.

Leon moved his finger along the faded lines until he found it. There was an old address was written beneath Grace's name.Daniel immediately pulled out his phone and photographed the page."I'll have the team search for her.""Do it," Leon said.Daniel glanced at the address again. "This is quite far from here.""How old is the record?" Leon asked.The elderly man leaned closer to examine the document. "Twenty-six years, perhaps a little more."Leon nodded slowly. "Then there's a good chance she doesn't live there anymore.""That's what I was thinking," Daniel agreed. "But we should be able to trace her through the address."Leon closed the folder carefully. He raised his head to meet the man's gaze. "Thank you for your help, sir. You have no idea how much this means to us."The old man smiled. "I'm happy I could help.”Leon gave a faint smile before slowly rising to his feet. Daniel rose from his chair as well, thanking the elderly man before following Leon toward the door.The momen
