The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor

Chapter 30: Shantelle’s New Love

“Sorry, Evan. Doctor Scott isn’t in Hamlin, either,” Evan heard Keith say on the other line, and very quickly, his heart sank.

“What about the private investigator you hired? Didn’t that come up with any results? “Keith asked. “Who was the PI again? Mr. Ren Austen, yeah – what about him?”

“Strangely, no,” Evan replied.

Evan thought it was unusual. Mr. Austen was the same person who had found out about Nicole. Despite his experience, he could not

find Doctor Scott. Still, he trusted the

investigator due to his previous dealing with

him.

Aside from hiring a private detective, Evan did what he had never tried to do before: he created a social media account. James, his assistant, walked him through it.

Evan tried to spy on Shantelle’s friends,

creating a fake name, but they would not randomly accept unknown persons on their friends’ list. He felt like a foolish teenager, but what else could he do? Evan had to use every method possible to find his ex-wife.

He also asked for Keith’s help. He always

knew his friend had social media, but it was the same; According to Keith, Shantelle’s

friends had blocked him. Not only Keith but

also Sean.

Of course, Evan considered there was also

that possibility that Shantelle eventually disabled her social media or that she might have changed the name on the account.

“Well, what can I say, Evan? A person in hiding cannot be found,” Keith suggested.” I’m sorry, Evan, but at least we tried. I have to go. I need to make money. It’s an important day for me tomorrow.”

“Thanks, Keith,” Evan said. “Thanks for

trying.”

Evan was on the road, counting the months in his head. It had been almost ten months since Shantelle left, yet he still had not
