Chapter 1014 Lost Contact for Half Month

"Even if it's true, she is still saving us," said Archer in a deep voice. "Poppy, study well and don't

overthink it. As long as we never have to return to the dark and hopeless days, everything will be

alright!"

"Um!"

Poppy nodded.

The following day was beautiful and sunny.

Archer moved into the new house with his family.

It was a small house with a small terrace, and every room looked bright with sunlight.

The home was cozy, although not as spacious as their previous large flat.

Archer and Poppy went to see the rooms happily.

After looking around the house, Edith sat on the sofa. Tears began streaming down her face, but a

genuine smile appeared on her lips.

The next day, Athena accompanied Evie to her construction site.

Athena helped her with some problems.

On the way, they chatted casually and ended up talking about Archer.

"So, they have settled down in Girard City?" Evie nodded repeatedly. "I was thinking of discussing this

with you a few days ago. Although Aiden will be fine after this, we must consider the risks involved.

That child's father has been involved in illegal activities like gambling, drugs, and other crimes. If he

goes back like this, he may be beaten to death by his father someday. If anything happens to Aiden

here, we'll have to find a new match again."

"I haven't thought about that aspect," Athena shrugged slightly. "I simply don't want this family back to

that hopeless and miserable situation again."

"Then what do you call this? Just a coincidence?"

"Maybe," Athena smiled and nodded.

Evie's phone buzzed and vibrated at this moment.

It was from a beauty salon.

When she had just returned, she accompanied Jane to apply for a card.

She hesitated for a moment.

Evie picked up the call.

Jane had never looked for her for the past half month since that day's text message.

"Excuse me, is Miss Cross speaking? I'm from the Century Beauty Center. Your mother has been

receiving injections of our rejuvenating vitality factor but hasn't come for two sessions now. Our product

has a limited shelf life, and we've been unable to contact her, so we have decided to contact you."

What the hell was this injection? A single dose was seventy to eighty thousand dollars.

And it was paid for by Evie.

"Can't contact her?" Evie frowned.

"Yes. Jane had scheduled an appointment two weeks ago but didn't show up. We called her, but her

phone was unreachable. Recently, we have been trying to reach her every day, but her phone remains

out of service. Did Jane change her phone number?"

"I'm not sure..." Evie was inexplicably flustered. "I'll try to help you get in touch with her."

"Sure, please remind her that if she fails to come in time and the injection expires, our center will not

provide any compensation."

"Understood."

Evie hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Athena hurriedly asked when she noticed Evie's unpleasant expression.

"The beauty center said they haven't been able to reach Jane for a long time," As Evie spoke, she

quickly dialed a series of numbers and made the call.

The few seconds before that felt unusually prolonged, filled with anxiety and tension.

Then, a mechanical voice came from the other end. "The user you dialed is temporarily out of the

service area. Please try again later."

Then Evie called her again.

The same response came from the other end.

"Two weeks ago..." Evie suddenly remembered something.

She opened her message on the phone and found two messages that she had ignored two months ago

from the junk messages.

[Evie, I've finally recognized Brian's true colors, but it was too late. You must have suffered a lot of

grievances when he deceived me. I'm sorry for you. This time, I'm determined to divorce him.]

[Last time you told me something about the property you gave me. What do you think I should do

before divorce to make sure your interests are not affected? I hope you'll be able to reply to this

message.]
