"Later, we found out that in Argent, within those one or two years, there were 68 girls nad Shane who went missing. We have already gathered DNA from 67 families."

"But the comparison results show no matches, so..." Adrian Lancaster turned his gaze to him, having made his point quite clear.

The middle-aged man sighed softly, his deanor appeared sowhat desolate.

After a while, the middle-aged man looked at him again, speaking very clearly, "President Lancaster, my comparison won’t succeed either."

Adrian Lancaster was slightly stunned and questioned, "Why?"

The investigative data couldn’t be wrong; he had lost his daughter. Didn’t he want to acknowledge her? Was she intentionally lost? Preference for sons over daughters?

Mr. Reynolds lowered his gaze, enduring the pain pulling at his heart, he smiled wryly, "Because Shane was originally our adopted child, we cared for her from one to five years old, cherished her, yet she still got lost."

This news was quite a blow to Adrian Lancaster.

Mr. Reynolds sighed, speaking with a hint of helplessness, "Later, my wife and I went to see a fortune teller, who told us that we were destined to be childless..."

And just like that, the clue was lost.

This was a result Adrian Lancaster was unwilling to accept.

So on the drive back to the company, his heart was filled with an unprecedented sense of loss, the contrast making it hard for him to breathe.

Adrian Lancaster and Faye Turner’s cars almost simultaneously parked in front of the company, with Faye entering the company lobby.

Adrian Lancaster was slightly slower.

As he walked in, she happened to turn her gaze, just in ti to see him.

Today, he seed different from usual; he appeared sowhat sad and absent-minded.

Observant Faye Turner paused her steps, turned her gaze towards him, waiting for him.

When Adrian Lancaster saw Faye Turner, he snapped out of his thoughts, suppressing his sadness.

Her appearance seed to touch the softest corner of his heart, and he quickly walked towards her, directly pulling her into his arms.

No matter the occasion.

Adrian Lancaster held her tightly; he felt extrely sorry, intending to help her find her biological parents, but the clue was lost.

Being suddenly embraced, Faye Turner was a bit dazed, "What’s wrong, Adrian?" she asked softly, concerned.

Adrian Lancaster didn’t answer; his mood was quite complicated, always wanting to give her the best in the world.

Faye had just returned from Gale Peterson’s, feeling a bit gloomy herself; the notes and photos she saw were oppressive, the details lingering in her mind.

Not far away, the company employees witnessing this scene were all envious.

Married, yet still so affectionate; their relationship was truly good.

At that mont, on the company’s lobby electronic screen, an advertisent ended and a news report appeared —

Vancouver local ti at 14:10, a 7.9 magnitude earthquake struck Gibson’s Town, turning the once artistic and romantic town into ruins within ten seconds, causing nurous buildings to collapse...

Countless innocent people are currently unaccounted for; communication has been disrupted; the governnt is preparing to organize rescue efforts, but experts predict there may be aftershocks...

The news anchor’s voice erged from the screen.

Faye Turner raised her gaze from Adrian Lancaster’s embrace, her body froze upon hearing Gibson’s Town, looking incredulously at the utter devastation on the screen...

Shocked, unimaginable, worried, terrified—various emotions enveloped her, as if her thoughts were extracted, her face pale.

Adrian Lancaster, holding her shoulder, also heard the news broadcast, following her gaze to the repeated scenes of destruction shown in the news.

Holding her shoulder, he could feel her body trembling slightly.

Thus, he withdrew his gaze and gently asked, "Faye, is there soone in Gibson’s Town?"

Faye slowly pulled back her frightened gaze, tears in her eyes, looking at him. She choked, her voice trembling lightly as she spoke, "Your mother..."
