His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2145

This meant that this so-called relative was not someone they knew.

Shortly after, Chad strode back in and informed Elliot, "Mr. Foster, this woman claims to be Peter White's wife. Do you remember Peter? He's your half-brother."

Elliot’s expression instantly darkened at the mention of that name.

He knew that Peter had been in Bridgedale the entire time. Peter was hardly a capable man, yet he was more ambitious than anyone he knew.

"Why would his wife come looking for me?" Elliot didn't want to meet with the woman.

"To ask for money," Chad said. "She said that Peter had tried running a business and failed, and he is now in enormous debt. He is missing and the loan shark has come for her. She can't pay the debt, so she has come to ask you for help."

"How much does she want?" Elliot stood up.

"I didn't ask. Should I go and ask her?"

"Bring her here. I'll ask her myself."

"Okay." Chad left the meeting room and brought Peter's wife back, before leaving the room immediately after.

Peter's wife was crying her heart out to the point that she was struggling to breathe. " Elliot, I really don't have any other options...

"When did you marry Peter?" Elliot had not heard any news of Peter getting married.

"We got married officially two years ago and had our wedding last year. I am five months pregnant now and he has gone missing," she sobbed. "Had the loan shark not come to our door, I didn't even know that he's in such an enormous debt. It's nine hundred thousand! Where am I supposed to get that much money?"

The woman was in distress and Elliot could not help but sympathize with her when he glanced at her belly.

"Give me the contact of the loan shark." He could not be certain who this woman truly was and whether she was telling the truth. After all, he had not been invited to Peter's wedding.

Peter's wife immediately took out her phone from her purse and showed him a number.
