Chapter 355

In an effort to improve the lives of the orphans there, Emily invested a large sum to enhance their meals. This initiative made the orphanages in Perthter City-a model not only for the country but for the world, attracting numerous visitors who came to learn from them.

At the same time, Emily also paid close attention to cases of abducted children. Whenever she heard that the police had found missing children, she would travel long distances to offer her assistance. But each time, she went with hope and returned in disappointment.

Her husband, Quintis, steadfastly supported her efforts. He even expanded the scope of aid from Perthter City to the entire province. With the strong backing of Sandalwood Group, orphanages throughout the province were significantly improved. However, despite all their efforts, there was still no breakthrough.

Years passed, and still, they had no leads on their son.

Eventually, Emily began to accept the cruel reality. She shifted her focus to helping Quintis expand Sandalwood Group's business. At the same time, she brought her nephew Tristan into the group, raising him as her own.

As she reflected on these past years, Emily felt a mix of emotions.

At that moment, after finishing looking through the photos of her son from birth to five years old, Emily sighed softly and was about to close the photo album and leave the room. But then, she noticed something glinting on the windowsill- metal.

It was the key she had been searching for earlier!

Emily was startled as she realized that the key, still attached to the keychain, was intact, with a small layer of dust on it. It was clear that it had been here for some time.

She froze, suddenly remembering that when she came earlier to clean the room, she had wedged the key against the window to keep it from blowing open in the wind. After finishing cleaning, she must have forgotten about it and closed the door.

But when Emily saw the key in her hand, a question arose in her mind if the key had been here, then where had the key Laura gave her come from?

A sense of confusion and mystery washed over Emily's mind.

Quickly collecting herself, she decided to keep both keys and go downstairs to ask Laura for clarification. Follow current novᴇls on Find[ɴ]ovel.net

When Emily asked Laura about the key, Laura seemed puzzled and explained that she had found it on the ground after the confrontation with Jack. She had assumed it was Emily's key and had picked it up.

Emily believed Laura's words, but she couldn't shake the lingering feeling of

unease.

What if there had been a theft in her home? Could someone have snuck in and copied the key?

Though the likelihood of a theft in the home of the Sandalwood Group's CEO was slim, it wasn't impossible. If someone had gained access to a key to the house, their intentions might go far beyond just stealing money.

After all, Sandalwood Group had grown from a small company to a global giant over the years, and with that success came a number of competitors who had fallen by the wayside. Some of these competitors were formidable, and if they had a key to the house, it could pose a serious threat to the safety of the couple.

Emily decided to go personally to check with Carla about whether she had lost a key. Since Carla was still bedridden with illness, Emily also thought it would be a good opportunity to visit her.

Carla lived in a modest apartment building in Tarthy City.
