Chapter 585
“Madam had gone out early in the morning, but I don’t know where she went. Ms. Yvonne, why don’t
you give her a call?” The servant was visibly rmed.
My hand was still trembling as I took out my phone. I struggled for a while before making the phone
call.

“I’m sorry, the number you’ve dialed is not avable. Please call againter.”
Is Mom missing again? I sighed. It seemed like a habit for her to disappear whenever something
happened. It was as if she was trying to hide from me and the issue surrounding my background. I
wanted to talk to her, especially now that Mark had imed to be my father.
Feeling frustrated and in disbelief, I smashed my phone to the ground. The screen cracked, and I could
only think of finding Christopher at that moment.
Seeing Christopher was the only way to keep me calm.
I took a cab to Christopher’s office. This was my first time here. I didn’te here before everyone
knew we were a thing, and I didn’t want to upset Julia. After that, I chose to note here because I
didn’t want to alert the journalists and upset Isabelle in return.
Standing in front of the skyscraper, the security guard stopped me from going in. I didn’t want to exin
much so I showed them the newspaper. “I’m Yvonne Tanner, and I’m here to see Christopher Lane.”
“Ms. Goldstein, wee!” His expression was initially full of disdain, but after hearing what I said, it
was almost a one hundred and eighty-degree change in his attitude.
“I’m Yvonne Tanner!” I nced at the security guard before walking into the building. No one was there
to stop me. It did seem like everyone in Lane Corporation had already known about my rtionship
with Christopher. They would greet me respectfully upon seeing me and then whisper behind my back.
I couldn’t know what they were talking about.
I went to the reception counter, and they gave me ess to Christopher’s office. He was stuck in a
meeting, and I could only sit on the couch while waiting for him. I noticed a picture on his desk. Feeling
curious, I flipped the picture around, and I was shocked to see who it was in the picture.
The girl inside was wearing a long white dress. She looked beautiful and youthful, and her smile was so
bright. There was a painting behind her.
It was me when I was sixteen years old. I’ve won the champion in the national high schoolpetition.
My smile was so bright and happy when I was standing on the podium. Sadly, none of my family was
there with me, and I didn’t get to snap any pictures myself tomemorate that day. I didn’t expect to
see this picture in Christopher’s office.
“I heard from them that you’re here.” Christopher walked into the office. After noticing that I was staring
at the picture, there was a rare shy expression on his face, and he walked over to me. He took the
picture away and led me to the couch as he wrapped his arms around me. “It’s your first time here in
my office. What’s the matter? Did you miss me?”
“I miss you.” I leaned on his shoulder, and then I handed the newspaper to him. “I feel a little heavy
after seeing this news as I can’t confirm if it’s true or not.”
Christopher must have been having back-to-back meetings since morning. Otherwise, he would have
known about this news. He took over the newspaper, and shortly after, he was visibly taken aback too.
ncing back at me and the newspaper, it took him a while to process this before mming the
newspaper on the desk with a frown.
“Isn’t this too much of a coincidence? Are you really the eldest daughter of the Goldstein family?”
Christopher was shocked.
“I don’t know. Mom left early in the morning, and I didn’t get to ask her.” I shook my head. “This is more
shocking to me than you. If Mark is really my father, then why didn’t Mom tell me anything? I’m about to
go crazy over all of these.”
“I’m more worried about the fact that you may be Mark’s daughter.” Christopher rested his head on
mine and sighed. “There are consequences for Mark to have dealings with the criminals at the
borders.”
