What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 386

Lewis still acted calmly. "Let's find him first."

Nancy said hesitantly, "Why do I have the feeling that he has eloped with that woman?"

Robert was a scumbag, but he never spoke ill of Layla after all these years and still had photos of them together in his study. He explained that he found it troublesome to clear them away, so he had left them as they were, but he never threw them away and merely placed them somewhere inconspicuous.

Nancy felt a thorn pricking her heart whenever she remembered that incident. She also felt fortunate that Layla had never returned, or she doubted she would still be Mrs. Alvarez.

"You're overthinking. Wait for the police's investigation results." Lewis ended with that sentence and hung up. He casually cast his phone on the table.

Seth looked at his phone, and his eyes flickered. "Is Robert missing?"

"You're well-informed, Mr. Fairchild."

"You can't expect it to remain a secret after you report it to the police," said Seth. "Alvarez Corp hasn't resolved its previous crisis, and now Robert is missing. If word gets out, Alvarez Corp's share value will plummet to an all-time low."

"What are you afraid of? We still have President Kiran, don't we?" Lewis stood and slowly walked toward the window. He looked down at the city beneath him and said, "His abilities must be top-notch since Robert strongly vouched for him to be the president. I believe President Kiran will turn the tides around and lead us out of this crisis."

Seth chuckled. "You're really something."

He was temporarily at a loss for words to comment on Lewis. Lewis was truly ruthless. He would even take action against his father when needed.

Something crossed Seth's mind, and he turned to look at Josephine, playing with the baby. Ignorant, she wasn't aware of everything that was happening around her. Seth looked at her for several seconds and left without saying anything else. Naturally, he left without his son too.

Soon, Conrad entered with a document and handed it to Lewis. "Sir, the DNA test results are here."

Lewis took it and scanned the contents.

"The results are as you foresee—Young Master Baron is not Mr. Fairchild's biological son."

"Interesting." Lewis cast it aside, adding, "Bring it, and let's head for the prison."

"Sure." Conrad was about to move when he looked back at Josephine. "But what about Madam?"

"Take her along."

Conrad was speechless. With so many tagging along, he wondered if they were visiting relatives instead.

Inside the visiting room, Daphne appeared before them, clad in a prison uniform. Her once-long hair had been cut short, and she looked haggard and thinner than before.

She started weeping when she saw Lewis and almost threw herself at the glass window. "Lewis, when are you bailing me out from here? I don't want to stay here even a day longer!"

Lewis stared at her, holding the phone. Then, he said, "You and Seth …"

He paused mid-sentence.

Daphne's eyes brimmed with tears. Her fingers wrapped around the receiver in a tight grip as she sobbed, "Seth? What about him? Is he here?"
