Chapter 22: The Scotts Moved

Evan was dressed in his best suit. He applied the perfume Shantelle always encouraged him to use. His hairstylist came to the villa and had his hair trimmed early in the morning.

‘Shantelle would have already received her gown yesterday. I hope she liked it,‘ He thought in his head.

After Evan’s haircut, he checked himself in the living room’s mirror. When satisfied with his appearance, he dismissed the hairstylist. He grabbed the printed itinerary of the trip to Paris from his room and went down the stairs, ready to leave.

In the living room, he saw that the flowers had already arrived. Evan seized the bouquet and paced to the door when someone rang the doorbell at the villa’s gates.

To Evan’s surprise, his assistant, James, made an unexpected visit. He walked out of a car with a huge box in his arms, making Evan frown. It was in the driveway when Evan asked, “James? What are you doing here?”

“Sir, I could not reach you last night, and I assumed you were resting, so I did not bother to call the landline. Sarah Kate boutique sent the gown to your office instead. They said.” James frowned before informing, “They said Miss Shanty no longer lived in that address.”

Evan was stunned. He gulped and frowned. Soon, he asked, “What – what do you mean?”

“I don’t know, Sir, but it was what the store manager told me. Whoever was in the house said that Miss Shanty had already moved,” James said before bowing his head.

Silence fell upon them, but after a few seconds, Evan cleared his throat. “There there must be some mistake. That’s their familial home. Doctor Scott loved that house so much. It was his father’s home. He had just recently renovated it. They – they must have delivered it to the wrong house.”

While Evan said this, his heart was uneasy. First, it was the flowers, and now, the gown. ‘Could the Scotts have moved? Impossible. Shanty would never leave without saying goodbye.‘
