Chapter 4

Five days later, Justin called his secretary, Ian Harris, to the office after breakfast.

“Did you find out more about Anna?”

The man faced the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at Savrow’s city view. His big and tall build exuded an extremely oppressive vibe.

“Um… I’m sorry, Mr. Salvador. There has been no progress.”

Ian wiped his sweat nervously. “After the young madam left that night, she didn’t go back to the nursing home where she used to work. I also went to Fogville, her hometown, to investigate in person, but the address she provided before was fake. The Brown family didn’t exist in that small

town.

“The address was fake?!” Justin turned around abruptly. His eyes were dark and terrifying.

“Yes. I went to the local police station to check her details, but they couldn’t find anyone that fit the young madam’s description.”

Ian had addressed Bella as the “young madam” for three years, so it took some time to change this

habit.

Justin was shocked. He thought, ‘Who the hell did I marry? A spy?’

“She left with Asher Thompson that night. Couldn’t you find any clues from him?”

“If Mr. Thompson has the intention to hide the young madam, we probably won’t be able to find

anything…”

The words “hide the young madam” made Justin’s eyebrows shoot up in anger.

“Asher Thompson has always been a decent man. How could he steal my wife?”

“Well… It doesn’t really count as stealing. It’s more like picking up the baton…”

Justin shot daggers at Ian, who was so terrified that he choked on his breath.

The image of Asher protecting Anna that night was still vivid in Justin’s mind. Asher looked so in love

with Anna.

For some reason, Justin was upset about that.

How could his boring wife charm Asher Thompson? In the elite circle, Asher was infamous for being emotionless. So why did he help Anna?
