Chapter 391 Encounter
His mother came back!
Asentence exploded in Audrey''s mind like a bomb.
Although it was not her mother who had an affair with Zackary back then, Zackary deeply loved her mother.
Based on this alone, Gianna could not ept her existence!
Did Gianna know about her rtionship with Sterling in the past, and did the mother and son have a dispute because of it?
However, the immediate priority now is to find Sterling.
Audrey nced at Hannah, who was standing on the side, and said, “Hannah, | might have to postpone my return for a few
days. Why don’t you go to the airport first?”
Hannah shook her head and said, “Actually, | don’t really want to go back so early. I''ll stay with you and help you find someone!”
“Okay.”
Audrey and Hannah took Deon to the apartment.
After Deon sat down on the sofa, Audrey poured him a cup of tea. “He’s gone, what''s Ricky’s n?”
Deon frowned and said, “He had already sent people to search everywhere, but the young master has counter-surveince
abilities and stubbornly did not reveal any trace of where he went!”
Audrey knew that Sterling had a me ntal illness, but she was never

clear about the specific reasons that caused it.
His mother came back, he suddenly disappeared, his illness, very likely
rted to his mother!
Audrey thought of the scene in her past life when she drank the deadly poison, and her whole body felt a chill running through
her blood.
He was paranoid and mncholic. If he were alone. he might have gone to extremes
We must find him as soon as possible!
“Assistant Zhou, think carefully, which ces did you overlook and
not search?”
Deon pondered for a moment and then shook his head. “I really can’t think of anywhere | haven''t looked
“Can you take me to the Howard Group?”
Deon nodded.
While Ricky was not in thepany. Deon took Audrey to Sterling''s office
Audrey walked up to the luxurious and grand office desk, looking around in all directions
There were only a few documents on the office desk, and there were no useful clues.
Audrey opened the drawer again.
Deon stood aside, wanting to remind Audrey that the young master didn’t like others touching his belongings. However,
considering that Audrey was the person the young master cared about the most, the

words that were about toe out of Deon’s mouth were swallowed
back.
Audrey flipped through it page by page.
He must have been a rather dull person in his life, as there was nothing else in his drawer except for business documents and
books.
When Audrey opened thest drawer, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
Just now she thought he was boring, but in thest drawer, there were actually many toys like robots and remote-controlled cars.
Underneath the small toy, there was a ck notebook.
Audrey took out her notebook and opened it.
Every page of the notebook was filled with densely written words.
Ben Wright: Born on August 3, 2009, he liked to eat chicken legs and wanted a basketball.
Kolton Wilkins: Born on February 25, 2010, he liked to eat braised pork and wanted a talking robot.
Sonia Myers: Born on September 1, 2009, she liked to eat ribs and wanted a pink headband and a pink backpack.
The notebook detailed and clearly recorded the birth dates and preferences of nearly one hundred students.
It was difficult to tell that beneath his gloomy and indifferent

appearance, there was such a delicate and tender heart.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Deon saw Audrey staring at the notebook without moving, so he walked over and nced down at it.
“Oh, aren''t these the children from Spring Mountain?”
Audrey stood up, holding a notebook, and looked at Deon with her deer-like eyes. “Spring Mountain?”
Deon nodded and said. “When the young master made his first fortune abroad. he sponsored many children in impoverished
mountainous areas in home. Spring Mountain was the first elementary school he sponsored after returning to the country. He
even attended the ribbon- cutting ceremony at that time. However, not long after, the young master encountered some trouble.”
It seemed like something came to mind, and Deon said. “A few days ago, when | came in to deliver some documents to the
young master. | overheard him receiving a call from the principal of Spring Mountain Primary School. It seemed like the children
over there missed him and asked when he would have time to visit.”
“The young master said that he woulde over if he had time.”
Audrey''s heart suddenly jumped.
Throughout the entire town of Suffolk, Ricky did not find any trace of Sterling. Could it be that he wasn’t even in Suffolk to begin
with?
“Assistant Zuo, | wanted to go to Spring Mountain.”
Deon looked at Audrey in disbelief, “But that’s four to five hundred kilometers away from Seffolk, with rough and remote mountain
roads. Besides, the young master may not have gone to Spring Mountain!”
Audrey looked at the notebook in her hand. She had diligently
recorded the birth dates and preferences of every child in Spring Mountain. indicating her emotional attachment to the ce.
No matter what, she had to go and find out.
“Hannah and | drove there, we hadpany on the way. you don’t need to worry.
Audrey knew that Sterling was not in thepany. Deon had to handle many of his work matters on his behalf. so he definitely
couldn’t spare the time to go together.
Deon saw Audrey’s determination and nodded. “Be safe on the way, and let’s stay in touch at all times!”
“Okay.”
After Audrey left the Howard Group. she returned to her apartment.
Hannah saw hering back and quickly stood up to ask. “How was it? Any news?”
“Hannah. will you apany me to Spring Mountain?”
Hannah didn’t ask much, she quickly packed her luggage and then the two of them went to the mall and set off
In order to hurry, the two of them did not waste time on the road.
Audrey drove the car while Hannah sat in the passenger seat. When Audrey got tired, she would switch with Hannah and let her
drive.
The two took turns to drive, and they didn’t feel tired.
It was around four o’clock in the afternoon when we arrived at T City where Spring Mountain is located.

Chapter 201 Encounter
When driving from the city to the suburbs, the mountain road gradually became bumpy.
On both sides of the road were continuous undting mountains, with very few vehicles passing by. The surroundings were quite
peaceful, carrying a touch of deste silence and beauty in the winter.
As the car was driving along a bumpy road, it suddenly made a nging sound and came to a stop.
Hannah tried to light the fire again, but no matter what she did, it wouldn''t catch
Audrey and Hannah got off the car to inspect its condition.
Neither of them knew how to fix cars. Audrey bit her lip and took out her phone to search for the nearest repair shop around.
Hannah stood by the roadside and looked around. In the distance, she saw a ck SUV approaching towards her.
“Audra, a car came by. Shall we g it down and see if the owner can fix the car?”
Audrey nodded and checked. If the nearest repair shop sent someone over, it would probably be dark.
The off-road vehicle approached slowly, and Hannah waved her hand.
The off-road vehicle parked by the roadside, and Hannah ran over.
The car window film was dark, Hannah couldn’t see who was driving inside. She raised her hand and knocked on the car
window.
The car window slowly rolled down, revealing a handsome figure wearing sunsses and a ck bomber jacket, catching
Hannah’s eye.

Hannah gazed at the man’s handsome profile. his straight nose and slightly pursed sensual lips, and was momentarily stunned.
Was she seeing things?
How else could | have seen the man who went to bed with her that night?
Hannah closed her eyes and opened them again, about to say something, when the man nced at her.
