Chapter 375


    When Patrick heard Seraphina’s question, he paused for a moment, but didn’t dodge it.


    He just shed a small smile and said, “I’m guessing the person you’ve been busting your hump to find


    is about this age, right?”


    Seraphina gently shook her head, “This answer doesn’t make much sense.”


    Patrick couldn’t help but chuckle, then said, “Seraphina, trust me on this. You’ve helped me crack


    cases before and everything I’m doing is to help you.”


    Hearing this, Seraphina silently looked at him.


    In a way, Patrick saying this was like admitting something.


    “Did you send me that photo?” Seraphina asked.


    Patrick probably didn’t expect her to be so blunt, he could only nod helplessly.


    Seraphina’s eyes stiffened a bit.


    “Why didn’t you juste to me directly, but instead make mee to Moonhaven in this roundabout


    way?”


    Patrick pondered for a moment, then said, “I didn’t want you to misunderstand me, thinking I had


    ulterior motives.”


    This involved Bowen, and Bowen had ties to the Martin family. To Patrick, the Martin family was


    something special.


    Patrick’s words could be understood.


    “If you wanted to avoid any misunderstandings, then you shouldn’t have shown up in front of me.”


    Seraphina said.


    Patrick slowly nodded, showing a helpless smile, “I know, but I just want to help you. I know it’s the


    right thing to do.”


    Seraphina pondered for a while and said, “You’ve indeed helped me a lot. Can you tell me now the


    whole story behind this photo?”


    “The photo was taken unintentionally by one of my guys. Bowen is not a nobody in my book, so they


    snapped it.” Patrick exined, “I only realized the girl in the photo might be important to you when I


    saw the news about your charity auction.”


    Hearing this, Seraphina’s body stiffened involuntarily.


    Since receiving that photo, she had never admitted that the person in it was Sandra.


    The reason she was so eager to investigate was just to see who the woman in the photo was, and why


    she looked so much like Sandra.


    She dared not to think about the possibility that Sandra’s still alive, because she didn’t want to give


    herself false hope.


    But now, with Patrick directly stating that the person in the photo might be important to her, Seraphina


    felt a pang.


    This sting even made her a bit angry.


    “I want to know who the person in the photo is, but that doesn’t mean she’s important to me,”


    Seraphina said.


    Patrick seemed to understand her feelings, hearing her emotional words, he just nodded and said,


    “Alright, I’ll help you investigate who the woman in the photo is.”


    Seraphina didn’t refuse.

    The identity of the woman in the photo had be her main concern now. If she could utilize Patrick’s


    connections to quickly find out this woman’s information, it wouldn’t hurt.


    The answer to this question appeared in Patrick’s hands the next day.


    Seraphina saw the woman’s passport information on Patrick’sputer.


    The woman’s name was Leni Sawyer, from Riverside Haven, born in ’90. Aside from her face, which


    was almost identical to Sandra’s, her personal information didn’t ovep with Sandra’s at all.


    However, she appeared next to Bowen, and over a month ago, left Starhaven with him.


    Seraphina stared at the passport information for quite a while.


    Seeing her silence, Patrick finally asked, “Any thoughts?”


    Seraphina scoffed, “What can I think? I won’t make any judgments until I see this woman with my own


    eyes.”


    “I thought your style was to hypothesize boldly and verify cautiously,” Patrick looked at her and said


    slowly.


    Seraphina bit her lip tightly and didn’t answer.


    Actually, Patrick wasn’t entirely right, her usual approach was to hypothesize boldly and then verify in


    an exaggerated way.


    But this situation didn’t even give her the courage to hypothesize.


    She didn’t want to assume that she never lost Sandra; she also didn’t want to assume that after the car


    ident, pain and death, Sandra was living in this world in such apletely lost way.


    Because once such assumptions formed in her mind, she might lose herself,


    By then, she would lose her reason and would go crazy looking for Sandra.


    What problems that might cause, she couldn’t predict.


    “So, are you nning to go back to Sunburst City to find her?” Patrick asked again.


    Seraphina nodded, “Yes. Since she’s already left Starhaven, I’ll go find her. If I can’t find her in


    Sunburst City, I’ll go to Riverside Haven, turn every stone, I’ll find this Leni.”


    Patrick fell silent for a moment, then asked, “When are you nning to go back?”


    “The sooner the better,” Seraphina answered, but the next moment, she suddenly stopped.


    What about Gloria’s problem if she just left like this?


    Seeing her momentary confusion, Patrick asked softly, “Anything wrong?”


    “Nothing.” Seraphina took a deep breath, “I have to go back eventually, the rest will take care of itself.”


    Patrick didn’t ask what her “other problems” were, just smiled and said, “Well, perfect timing, we can go


    back together.”


    Seraphina looked at him.


    Patrick said, “I was nning to go back to Sunburst City in a few days anyway. Now that you’re going


    back too, it all works out.”


    Seraphina epted his help, smiling as she said, “Sure.”


    The news that Seraphina wasing back reached Leandro at seven in the morning.


    The call was from Abbot, probably made at this time so as not to disturb Leandro’s rest. He informed


    Leandro that Seraphina had arrived at the airport, and Patrick


    was with her.


    It happened to be the weekend, so Leandro had the day off. He got up early and had a chat with Gloria,


    then headed back to Reynolds Manor.


    He had originally nned to spend the day with Valerio, but didn’t expect Seraphina to return on the


    same day. Everything seemed to fall into ce perfectly.


    When Leandro got back to Reynolds Manor, he was surprised to see Bruce.


    It had been a while since Gloria’s suicide, and Bruce had never visited her. Leandro didn’t expect to


    bump into him here.


    Bruce was sitting on the sofa, flipping through a world encyclopedia with Valerio.


    When he saw Leandro, he just gave a faint smile and said, “You’re back.”


    Leandro didn’t respond, just wondering what the heck was going on today.


    Soon, he recalled a simr date from his memory – the day Magdalen joined the Reynolds family.


    So that’s why Bruce suddenly showed up.


    Leandro slightly lowered his head, a hint of sarcastic smile ying on his lips.
