Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 1113

Byron immediately turned his gaze toward Hazelyn, his eyes sharp and slightly threatening. Hazelyn seemed to sense the pressure emanating from her father's gaze, twitching the corner of her mouth reluctantly.

She forced a smile at me, saying, "Oh no, don't take it to heart."

Gabriel quickly intervened, "Mrs. Chloe, do you like Gerby?"

"It's hard to say I like it. I had a classmate here before, so I had some impressions of Gerby earlier," I replied casually.

Byron immediately followed up, "Oh? You had a classmate here? What do they do?"

"We haven't been in touch for many years. I don't even know if they're still here or not," I said with an air of indifference.

Byron softly exclaimed, "What's their name? I can help you check."

"Oh? Do you have connections in the police station? That could really help me out. I've been searching for a long time with no luck," I deliberately inquired.

Byron smiled. "Certainly, they must be a local in Gerby, doing business perhaps? You need a certain foundation for that."

I wasn't sure if his words were intentional hints to Atlas or just casual remarks. Nevertheless, I was highly intrigued by what he said.

With a pleasant expression, I said, "That would be wonderful! Mr. Byron, could you introduce me to him? I'd like to find my classmate, and your help would mean a lot."

Byron, shrewd as ever, asked, "Mrs. Chloe, who are you looking for exactly?"

"A guy, we lost touch after graduation. He mentioned wanting to immigrate at the time, but I haven't heard from him since. It's been a mystery," I casually explained. "So, only someone in the police department can help me find out."

"Oh! In that case, you can reach out to Raymond Bolt at the city police department. Raymond is an old classmate of mine, and we have a good relationship," Byron suggested directly.

Finally, it seemed I had hooked a big fish.

Atlas looked at me, and I was sure he was quite pleased as well.

"That would be great. If I go to him, can I mention your name?" I asked, knowing this could be a significant breakthrough.

"We're on good terms, but we don't interact much outside of formal occasions. However, you can still look for him."
