Chapter 241
Mike hung up the phone, ignoring his aunt’s scolding.
He then let out a long sigh.
He seriously felt he was unlucky because Serenity was unharmed even after he got help from so many people.
Mike also felt that Serenity had a backer, but he did not know who that was.
None of the mediators were willing to help Mike, which indicated that Serenity’s backer must be someone powerful in Wiltspoon. Through their investigation, Mike also did not notice that Serenity and Liberty knew any influential figures.
Although Liberty’s husband was a manager in a large company, he was just an employee. Mike had no idea what kind of job Serenity’s husband had for a living, but he found out from the townspeople that Serenity’s husband only drove a national car worth around one hundred and twenty thousand dollars.
Any of the Hunts‘ scooters was better than the car belonging to Serenity’s husband.
This showed that Serenity’s husband was not doing so well.
If Mike were to guess who Serenity’s backer was, it would be Serenity’s best friend, Ms. Sox, who was born and raised in Wiltspoon. The Soxes were rich, and Mike heard that her aunt married into an affluent family. Was that Sox girl helping Serenity?
Serenity thought her money–hungry relatives would definitely look for her since she called. the police to get Noah arrested. Thus, she was mentally prepared.
However, Serenity waited until noon and did not see any of her annoying relatives.
Grandma May invited Zachary for lunch over a call.
When Zachary received the call from his nana, he had already left the office in his exclusive car and was heading to Wiltspoon Hotel for lunch.
Josh drove his car behind Zachary’s because they agreed to have lunch together.
“Nana.”
Zachary answered his nana’s call. Before she could speak, he asked in a low voice, “Did you get. the answer to the question that you were supposed to ask on my behalf?”
“What question? Was I supposed to ask someone something?”
Grandma May could not recall.
