Jimmy Horne echoed in agreent.
Looking at his innocent nephew, Jas Horne suddenly felt that in front of them, he was an unpardonable villain.
Julia started the engine and drove the car away.
A mont later, Jas Horne also climbed into his car and left the school gate.
After the two cars disappeared, a woman wearing black sunglasses that covered most of her face erged from a nearby spot. She held a mobile phone in her hand, its cara lens aid at where Julia and Jas had just been standing.
The scene of Jas grasping Julia's hand was fully captured by this woman, and it was crystal clear. Her phone was fully functional, and the enlarged photos even showed the urgency, the dominance, and the greed in Jas's fingers when he seized Julia's hand.
A sinister smile appeared on her lips, while her eyes under the sunglasses were filled with deep resentnt.
After storing her phone, the woman turned and walked away, soon disappearing into the crowd.
「As Julia ca to pick up the child, Adele was still busy at the company.」
Julia, being the boss, could leave the company at any ti. Adele was now Julia's assistant. With Julia gone, a lot of work piled up on her.
She was busy until five-thirty, leaving work with the other employees.
After work, she didn't go straight ho but went shopping on Pedestrian Street, buying mostly clothes or food for the kids at ho.
The Pedestrian Street in the evening was much busier than during the day, with more cars and even more people.
Adele spent quite a bit of money, filling her arms with large and small packages. She walked out of Pedestrian Street carrying them all, heading toward her BMW. Thinking of how happy her son would be to see the new clothes she bought for him, her mood lifted even more.
「anwhile, a black luxury shuttle flew past the streets as if it were fleetingly admiring the flowers.」
Noah Reyes wasn't interested in the scenery of the streets. He had traveled to so many countries and seen plenty of prosperous streets.
"Boss, that there is T City's most upscale street, Pedestrian Street. Each shop there is top-grade, with prices that would scare the working class to death," Deon Myers, sitting next to Noah Reyes, explained as the car passed Pedestrian Street.
"Hmm," Noah Reyes responded indifferently, still uninterested in looking outside the car.
"Boss, do you want to take a stroll?" Deon Myers asked cautiously.
"I am not a woman." Noah Reyes finally turned to glance at Pedestrian Street. Then his blood rushed to his head—he saw her. He saw that charming figure.
"It was her!"
Even if it was just a fleeting enchantnt, he could recognize her at a glance, even if all he saw was her back. His yearning for her had penetrated deep into his bones; even years apart, his familiarity with her allowed him to recognize her easily.
"Imdiately, right now, drive towards Pedestrian Street!" Noah Reyes ordered urgently. His eagerness, both in his expression and tone, surprised the bodyguards and Deon Myers sitting beside him. As the bodyguards promptly turned the car toward Pedestrian Street, Deon Myers curiously scanned the street, wondering what had made the Boss change his mind and beco so eager.
Unfortunately, the heavens did not pity Noah Reyes's effort to find Adele. As his car turned around, the traffic was too dense, and it couldn't swiftly reach Pedestrian Street. By the ti he caught sight of Adele Horne's back, she was getting into her car, preparing to leave.
By the ti his car finally arrived at the entrance of Pedestrian Street, Adele Horne's car had long gone.
The person he had thought about for years, the one Deon Myers had spent almost half a month searching for, just vanished before his eyes.
The parking lot at the entrance to Pedestrian Street was so full of cars that he had only been able to see Adele's back, not her license plate number. He only knew it was a BMW, but there were too many BMW drivers around here.
"Damn it!" Noah Reyes got out of the car, looking around frantically, searching. When he could no longer see Adele Horne, he cursed in frustration.
"Boss, what's wrong?" Deon Myers and the bodyguards also hurriedly got out of the car, asking with concern.
"I saw her, I just saw her! Damn the traffic! Damn it, she's disappeared again!" Noah's deanor was one of extre agitation mixed with intense annoyance. He was even angry at himself. Why hadn't he paid attention when Deon was introducing Pedestrian Street to him? If he had looked sooner, he might have spotted her earlier, which would have given him ti to et her. Even if he hadn't managed to et her, at least he could have run into her car or learned her license plate number.
It was all his fault! She had appeared right before his eyes, and yet, he had missed her.
Regret tangled around Noah's heart like a fishing net.
"Her?" Deon was montarily taken aback, then he understood that the "her" Noah was referring to was the woman the Boss had encountered four years ago.
"Deon, have soone investigate all BMW owners imdiately. I want the identity and information of all BMW owners," Noah instructed solemnly, his rationality returning after the pang of regret.
Even though there were many BMW drivers here, at least the search was sowhat narrowed down. As long as she was still in this city, he was determined to find her!
"Yes, Boss."
Deon sighed inwardly; another daunting task. It seed the Boss had fallen deeply for that girl from a single encounter. Uncommon! She must be astonishingly beautiful. Those who owned BMWs must be of no low status, and to make the Boss fall so deeply from one eting, she must be an exceptional beauty. He could start with the daughters of Upper Class Society.
His organization's information network was indeed impressive; though not comprehensive in this area, it was still capable of gathering the identity and information of all BMW owners in a matter of hours and presenting them to Noah Reyes.
「The sky had already turned dark, marking another sleepless, long night for Noah.」
"Boss, Glades Horne's sister, Adele Horne, also drives a BMW," Deon reminded as he handed over the information to Noah.
Adele Horne? Noah suddenly rembered that Adele Horne had also beco an unwed mother four years ago and drove a BMW… His heart suddenly started to race. Could she be the one? Could Adele Horne be the one he was searching for?
"Give it to !" Noah imdiately took the thick stack of docunts, first searching for Adele's details. But as soon as he saw the photo, disappointnt washed over him; the woman in the photo was not her!
"Boss?" Deon, seeing his look of deep disappointnt, felt a pang of sympathy. He had thought Adele Horne matched many of the features of the woman the Boss was looking for. She had beco an unwed mother four years ago, was attractive, and drove a BMW. Even though she was a mber of the Horne Family, Deon believed that if she were the one, the Boss would willingly abandon his competition with the Valence Group for her. What a pity…
