    Chapter 65 Moore’s Ex–husband


    Maxwell nodded.


    Hearing his suggestion, I felt energized and immediately called Uncle Marcus, asking him to speak with


    the police and possibly search the psychiatric hospitals in Lake City.


    Uncle Marcus was probably already in bed, as he took a moment to respond after hearing my voice,


    but he then nodded in


    agreement.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    After hanging up the phone, I turned to Maxwell and said, “Thanks.” I would not have thought of this


    connection without his help


    He smiled and said, “No need to thank me. I just felt bad for you and couldn’t help but offer assistance.”


    I…


    This guy truly had a sharp tongue.


    The next day.


    Since there was no news from Caleb and Bt, I could


    ould only wait anxiously at the office.


    When Sweety called, I was still daydreaming, so I answered the phone in a daze. She immediately said


    in a panicked voice, Yvette, quick,e to the Zimmi Restaurant on Rainford Road. I’ve just witnessed


    something incredible. Hurry over.”


    I had not rested well these past few days, and my forehead was throbbing with pain. Pinching the


    bridge of my nose, I asked, ” What incredible thing?”


    “Juste and you’ll know, Hurry,” she urged.


    Unable to refuse, I agreed


    Getting up and grabbing my coat, I was about to leave the office when I ran into Uncle Marcus at the


    door. Seeing me heading. out, he asked, “Ms. Scott, where are you going?”


    “I have something to take care of. I’ll be out for a while.”


    He nodded and said, “The police checked several psychiatric hospitalsst night but didn’t find anyone


    named Sophia However, they learned that Bt had previously visited a psychiatric hospital in


    Southern City but there was no woman named Sophia there, and Bt had not admitted any woman


    either.”


    Bt went to a psychiatric hospital, but not to admit someone. What was he doing there?


    I acknowledged his information and asked, “le Marcus, can you send me the address of that psychiatric


    hospital in Southern City?”


    He nodded, and I hurried out without further conversation.


    Zimmi Restaurant.


    I had just parked the car when Sweety pulled me into the restaurant, which was divided into two floors


    with a beautiful and traditional decoration scheme. She dragged me upstairs.


    Curious about her urgency, I could not help but ask, “What’s going on?”


    As she was pulling me, she whispered, “Guess who I just saw? Moore with a man.”


    “A man?” I could not help but twitch at theer of my mouth. “What man?”


    She nced at the innermost private room in the hallway and said, “I just heard the man’s assistant


    addressing him as Mr. Lanier. Do you think it could be…?”


    “Noah?” I paused for a moment, then could not help but blurt out.


    Sweety nodded. “I think it’s very likely.”


    Chapter 65 Moore’s Ex–husband


    Noah Lanier was Moore’s ex–husband, a prominent figure in Lake City back then. However, oftentimes,


    money and power were the harbingers of doom for many, and human nature, when perched too high,


    would breed greater ambition and more


    ruthless actions.


    During Noah’s years in Lake City, while numerous women and fortunes flocked to him, disaster also


    struck him head–on.


    Three years ago, when Noah was at his most glorious, Moore had married him, emerging victorious


    among many women to be his legitimate wife. However, it was also around that time that Noah’s


    life unraveled in less than a year. He fled abroad, taking with him the money he had extorted from the


    people.


    Moore had also gone abroad with him.


    Noah’s scandal had shocked the entire country. After all, one person’s greed and cruelty could cause


    widespread suffering. When the investigations concluded and the media reported on it, it turned out


    Noah had several dozen people’s blood hands, not to mention the countless women who had spent


    time in his bed.


    It was indeed a regret for the people of Lake City to not have such a man die during punishment in his


    mothend.


    I had thought that after he fled, he would not dare to return. Surprisingly, he had the audacity toe


    back.


    Thinking this, my first reaction was to call the police, but Sweety stopped me and pulled me into a


    private room, whispering, I noticed the b*dyguards with him are armed. Let’s observe the situation first.


    They’re so brazen, so I fear they might have people around. But what I’m more curious about is why is


    he looking for Moore.”


    I pursed my l*ps and said, “After all, they were husband and wife. It’s not strange that he’s looking for


    her.” What I was more curious about was the reason Noah returned to the country.
