    As the door to the ward closed behind him, Mattew opened his eyes and looked down at his phone.

    The screen disyed a collection of photos of Hesper. There were not many of it, as she was not


    particrly fond of having her picture taken. But now, those few images were all he had left to


    remember her by.


    "Where are you, little sister?" he whispered to himself, his voice barely audible in the silence of the


    hospital room.

    Six monthster.


    Rickard stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his tie. When he did not see the person beside him, he


    frowned at the empty space and called out a few times, "Renfrew? Renfrew, where are you?"


    Hearing Rickard''s voice, Benji came in and smiled awkwardly. "Young Master Renfrew slipped past my


    eyes and left just now. By the time I noticed, he was long gone. I''ve sent someone to look for him, but


    they haven''t found him yet."


    Rickard nodded, looking down as he fastened his cufflinks. "If he doesn''t want toe back, then let


    him be. Just let me know if you find him."


    "Yes, Mr. Duval," Benji replied before leaving the room.


    As he stepped into the bustling living room of the Duval mansion, Benji could not help but feel a sense


    of nostalgia. It had been a long time since he had seen such a lively scene. They were going to


    celebrate Renfrew''s birthday to liven up his mood, but unfortunately, he refused toe.


    Ever since Hesper went missing, Renfrew had be increasingly withdrawn, refusing to


    his mental state had be closed off and unresponsive, as if he had shut himself off from the world.


    "Where could he have gone?" Benji muttered to himself as he searched the usual ces where


    Renfrew would hide but to no avail. He was about to give up when he remembered an important guest


    that he had to wee.


    Reluctantly, Benji delegated the task of finding Renfrew to the other servants and headed towards the


    entrance to wee the guest.


    In the past six months, many things had happened. After returning to Lane Holdings, Matthew


    immediately revoked all of Rachael''s responsibilities in thepany. No one knew the reason behind


    it. Initially, Arthur wanted to intervene, but after a conversation with Mattew, he followed his decision


    and let Rachael stay at home idly.


    It took half a month before Rickard woke up from the incident. To everyone''s surprise, he remained


    unusually calm, showing no visible reaction upon hearing that Hesper''s remains had not been found


    and were possibly taken away by someone.


    "What kind of guest ising today that even Mr. Lynch has to go and greet them personally?"


    "Haven''t you heard? It''s a powerful family from Fredonia. They''ve had two deals with our boss this


    year, making them the biggest client of the Duvals."


    "The daughter of this family''s head also came to celebrate the young master''s birthday. It''s a real show


    of respect for Mr. Duval."


    "I see. She must be a remarkable person."


    "Of course, she is. She''s the sole heir of such a big family. If she isn''t someone capable, our boss


    wouldn''t have worked with her. And I heard she''s a stunning beauty!"


    Benji stood at the door for a long time, but he still did not see the heir of the Deschamps. He could not


    help but feel anxious as he checked the time again and again.
