Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 462

We didn't see anyone in the restroom on the first floor!

The second floor neither!

We searched everywhere in the house, but we didn't find Jessica. I asked the maid, "Where is she?"

The maid looked nervous and shook her head. "I don't know, we haven't seen her since morning."

I rushed to the door and found that Jessica's shoes were still there. "She went out with slippers?"

I was so worried!

I changed my shoes and called the police first.

Then we went to the estate to check the surveillance cameras.

Through the monitoring system, we found that Jessica went out last midnight.

It was March. She only wore a thin pajama and slippers. The camera showed that she walked to the road and then she was out of sight.

"Do you have any speculation about where your mother would go?" The police asked me.

Ryan and I looked at each other, and soon realized that she probably went to find Finn!

But she even did not know where the Kelsi family lived. If she went out rashly like this, how could she find Finn?

The police helped me search for her on the monitor, and I also contacted Patrick. He used his relationship to help me find Jessica.

I didn't have any clues. I could only follow the last path that Jessica had been and went to the stores along the way one by one to ask if anyone had seen Jessica.

However, it was midnight, so almost no shops opened at that time. Thus, no one had seen her!

I was about to freak out.

It had taken me a lot of effort to find my mother. I didn't want anything bad happen to her!

For a moment, I really regretted my arbitrary behavior yesterday.

I should have let Finn in. In the end, he was the man that my mother loved.

Naturally, they wanted to chat.

"It was my fault."

"I was wrong."

I kept thinking about it in my heart, hoping that Jessica could be found soon.

However, we had been busy for the whole morning, but we hadn't heard any news about Jessica.

Where could she go?

I hesitated for a moment and then called Patrick. I asked him to help me find Finn's phone number.

He quickly sent it to me.

I called Finn right away.

He answered quickly.

"Hello." Finn said. Different from last night, his voice was cold and steady now.

It gave people an indifferent and aloof impression.

"Hello, Mr. Finn. I'm Janetta."

I introduced myself first.

Finn paused for a moment and said, "Janetta? What's wrong?"

His tone softened at once after knowing who I was.

"Well, my mom ran away from home in the midnight. I think you also know her situation. I am not sure whether it has something to do with you that she suddenly left, so..."

"What? Jessica is missing?"

Before I could finish my words, he interrupted me.

Finn did sound worried.

I frowned slightly and said, "Yes, she doesn't know where you live in City Y, so I want to know if you have any thoughts about where she will go."

"I... I don't know. I haven't seen her for many years."

Although I couldn't see Finn face to face, I could feel his guilt from his words.

I reminded, "Is there some place that you two had been to before, or did you promise to go somewhere with her. Are there any places like this?"

Finn listened to me and did not reply immediately. He was thinking about it.

After a while, he said, "I can't recall it now."

As I expected, calling him was in vain!

I said helplessly, "Well, if you remember anything or find her, just contact me."

Then I hung up.

Because she was my mother, I had a very deep hunch that Jessica must leave to meet Finn.

As for where would she go, it should be a place that Finn knew.

He just forgot it.

I was not surprising. He was an unfaithful lover.
