The Hidden Empress Stripping Her Secrets After Divorce novel Chapter 71

The crowd dispersed to execute their tasks.

Suppressing the thrill of excitement racing through her veins, Lyra grabbed Lydia's hand, feigning panic as they scoured the women's lounges near the banquet hall. They deliberately made a scene, drawing the curious stares and hushed whispers of the surrounding guests.

"What's going on? Is Mrs. Lancaster missing?"

"I heard she wasn't feeling well and went to the lounge a while ago, but she hasn't come back..."

"Do you think something happened?"

Listening to the murmurs, Lyra could barely stop the corners of her mouth from turning upward.

However, as time ticked by, they searched almost every conceivable corner near the hall. They even used the excuse of "worrying Ms. Sullivan might have fainted in the restroom" to have the staff open several vacant guest rooms, but they found absolutely nothing.

Evelyn Sullivan seemed to have vanished into thin air.

The mask of concern on Lyra's face began to slip, replaced by a creeping sense of unease. Could that useless Caleb Vance have bungled the job and let Evelyn escape? Or... had something else gone wrong?
