Who Are You
“We are unsure about her relationship with the Maupay family. However, this is a clue for us to dig
deeper.”
“Okay, Daddy.”
After a momentary pause, Kyle asked regarding Nicole’s situation, “How is it possible that we can’t find
Mommy after so long? Should we call the cops?”
Evan narrowed his eyes as he fell silent. Then, he turned to look at Kyle and responded, “Don’t worry.
Your mommy is a smart woman, and she’ll be fine. As for you, you should be focusing on looking into
Sally’s background instead.”
Kyle froze on the spot while a myriad of questions swirled in his head. Why is Daddy so calm even
though we haven’t heard from Mommy after so long? Could it be that he knows something that I don’t?
He left the study room as the thought ran in his mind over and over again. Suddenly, Juan appeared.
“Kyle, did you do anything in Sally’s room earlier?”
Juan had overheard Kyle’s conversation with Evan just now. I know that Kyle meant something else
when he said that everything’s settled.
Stopping in his tracks, Kyle sized Juan up. “Are you curious?” he teased.
Of course, I am. Why would I ask if I wasn’t?
Juan nodded his head in response. “Uh-huh!”
“You want to know what happened?”
“Yes. I really want to know,” Juan replied.
Kyle was silent for a while before he flashed a smirk. “But… I don’t feel like telling you.” With that, he
turned around and left.
He doesn’t want to tell me? How capricious!
“Fine! Forget about it!” Juan glanced around his surroundings and ended up fixing his gaze on Sally’s
room.
If he doesn’t want to tell me, I’ll go and have a look myself.
Then, he sneakily entered Sally’s bedroom and searched the entire area. His gut feeling told him that
Kyle had set up a trap as something was definitely fishy.
He began flipping through the closet.
After searching high and low, he failed to look for any clues. Just as he was pondering, Maya’s and
Sally’s voices came from outside.
“Don’t be sad, Maya. I believe we’ll hear from your mommy in no time.”
“Okay. Go ahead and grab some rest. Just let the servants know if there’s anything you need.”
Sh*t. Is Sally back? What would she think if she saw me here? Will she suspect me? How am I
supposed to explain myself?
The moment the door was pushed open, Sally saw Juan standing in front of her.
Feeling suspicious, she asked, “What are you doing here?”
Juan crossed his arms as he stared at her. “I’ve been waiting for you here.”
“Waiting for me?” She raised her brows curiously.
“That’s right. I’d like to have a word with you.”
He was impressed with his ability to adapt to the situation as soon as his words fell. Thank goodness
for my lightning-quick reaction. I should pat myself on the back.
Noticing how serious he looked, she could not help but wonder if he was here to ask about Nicole’s
disappearance.
Bring it on. If I can deal with Kyle, dealing with you would be a piece of cake!
“Is that so? What is it that you want to talk to me about, Mr. Juan?”
“I want to know your true identity. Who are you, really? Are you linked to my mommy’s disappearance?
Why would you do that?”
Juan narrowed his eyes as he scrutinized Sally. He wanted nothing more but to see how stubborn she
was.
Smiling calmly, she replied, “Don’t you already know who I am? I bet you’ve already done a
background check on me. However, I’m sorry about your mommy’s disappearance as I truly have no
clue about it. There’s no use questioning me, and you’re only wasting your time. I suggest that you
should spend more time thinking of ways to search for her.”
