Chapter 329
When Hugh heard that, he examined the envelope carefully and was shocked to see that it indeed bore the postmark of Charleston.
Speaking of Charleston, he found the pattern on the postcard strangely familiar. Before he could ponder what the pattern meant, Chelsea continued speaking, "I'm sure that Lucy didn't die. If you don't believe me, I'll go find her alone. You can stay here in the country."
"N-No, babe. How can I let you go to a foreign country all alone? What's the point of having a boyfriend if you don't bring me with you? I'll go with you to protect you."
How could he let her go alone? Hugh hurriedly expressed his thoughts, eliciting a chuckle from Chelsea.
"That sounds more like it."
Seeing Chelsea happy, Hugh hugged her and said, "Since we're going, we need a plan. Charleston is huge. Where do you plan to start looking for Lucy?"
His question made her freeze. She realized that she only knew that the postcard was from Charleston. She did not have an address.
What if Lucy was just passing through Charleston when she sent her a postcard? Perhaps there was no address written because she was not actually staying there.
With that thought in mind, Chelsea deflated and angrily exclaimed, "It's all Matthew's fault, that jerk! How could he arrange a funeral for Lulu? He's basically cursing her!"
Chelsea cursed Matthew in her heart, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes, if that asshole arranged a funeral for Lulu, he must have known that Lulu was not dead. Maybe he knew where she was.
"Let's ask Matthew. He must know where Lulu is," Chelsea said to Hugh.
Hugh thought that it was a good idea. No one else would know Lucy's whereabouts better than Matthew.
The two immediately decided to visit him, but when they arrived at his company, they could not even get into his office.
"Mr. Leon is on a business trip, and
I'm not sure where he went. My apologies, Ms. King," the receptionist said apologetically, showing great respect toward Chelsea.
She was the best friend of the CEO's wife, and based on how their CEQ treated his wife even after her death, the receptionist dared not disrespect Chelsea in any way.
On a business trip? What a coincidence.
Unwilling to give up, Chelsea asked again, “Do you know when Mr. Leon will be back, or do you have his assistant's phone number?"
The receptionist looked
embarrassed. How could she, a lowly employee, possibly know the CEO's whereabouts or have his assistant's phone number? That was ridiculous. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"I'm really sorry, Ms. King."
The receptionist apologized helplessly. Chelsea realized that she would not get anything from her, so she gave up.
“Alright, thank you for your help," Chelsea said to the receptionist before leaving Leon Corporation with Hugh.
With Matthew on a business trip, Chelsea lost the only lead she had to find Lucy.
Feeling disheartened, she sighed in frustration. However, Hugh suddenly froze in place after he finally realized what the pattern on the postcard was! "Chelsea, I think I know where Lucy is..."
"What? You know? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Tell me!" Chelsea urged him.
Hugh looked helpless as he replied, "I only just remembered it now."
