Chapter 400 He’s Non-existent to Her
At that, Elliot smiled with resignation. “Alright then!”
When he pulled over in front of Anastasia’s apartment, he could only watch her get out and go home. Alas, it would be another lonely night.
Just then, his phone rang. He checked the caller ID to find it was Hayley, someone he hadn’t been in contact with for about a month.
He had really forgotten all about her. “Hello?”
“Elliot, it’s me. I’m back. I’ve missed you so much!”
“Nice to hear that you’re back safely,” Elliot answered perfunctorily.
“Are you available for a meal tomorrow?”
“I’m occupied tomorrow.”
“How about the day after?”
“I have to work overtime this weekend.”
“Well then… can I visit you next week?”
“Sure, we’ll talk some other time. Goodnight.” With that, Elliot ended the call.
Soon after, another call came in. It was Rey this time. With that, Elliot pressed the answer button on the steering wheel and drove away.
“President, I’ve got news from the Abyss Club. We’ve managed to trace the phone call to an address, but what’s strange is that it’s from Summit Mansion.”
Elliot’s brows furrowed lightly upon hearing Rey’s news. “Isn’t that the area where Hayley lives?”
“Yes, sir! It’s exactly where you bought Miss Seymour’s mansion. The number originated from that area.”
“Can you get more information apart from that?”
“The number isn’t registered, and the SIM card was sold illegally. Hence, we can only track where the call had come from. I’ll check Summit Mansion’s surveillance next. It’s an upscale mansion community, after all. Surely there will be cameras everywhere. I’d like to find this guy.”
