The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1628

Grady didn't stick around long before he gracefully excused himself from Mr. Hammond's office, mentioning he wanted to have a look around the school.

Mr. Hammond had initially offered to show him around, but Grady turned him down politely, so he had no choice but to have someone else ready to assist if needed.

Once Grady was gone, the smile faded from Mr. Hammond's face, revealing the beads of sweat glistening on his forehead.

Picking up the check from his desk, he was struck by the thought that there were still good-hearted people out there. I mean, who just donates a whole research building on a whim?

His mind drifted back to what Grady had said earlier. He grabbed the phone and called his assistant, "Any updates on that student who fell into the lake yesterday?"

The assistant had just returned and replied with respect, "I went to the hospital last night, and they said Summer had already been picked up by her family. We can't get in touch with her, and neither can the police. As for any mental health concerns, the hospital hasn't given any assessments."

Mr. Hammond frowned, "So Summer's gone off the radar?"

"Yes, her school records are really sparse, no details about her parents or home address," the assistant said, sounding puzzled.

Normally, records wouldn't be this incomplete.

Mr. Hammond rubbed his temples, aware that Summer's thin file was because she was specifically admitted by Dr. Joen.

He wouldn't normally approve a student without the proper paperwork, but Dr. Joen was an exception.

Joen wouldn't take on a student with mental issues, so something else was going on here.

The more he thought about it, the more it bugged him. "Does the student who fell into the lake have any significant background?"
