Chapter 1151
Winona… she’s still alive!
Leaving the psychiatric hospital, the two of them headed straight home.
Elijah had tampered with the hospital’s surveillance system to keep an eye on Sarah. So, they didn’t have to worry about alerting anyone by visiting her today. At most, Zane would only know they went to see Sarah, but not the reason behind it.
If Zane were to ask, they could simply say they visited Sarah because they couldn’t reach him or Winona, and wanted to check with his cousin.
Number One Mansion.
As soon as Elysia walked through the door, Pamela and Baby hurried to greet her.
“Irene p>
“Mommy p>
While they spent time with Elysia, Tarquin headed upstairs to the study for a quick meeting with Elliot and Elijah.
Elliot inquired, “Do you think what Sarah said is credible? Is Winona really alive p>
Tarquin nodded, “Even though her mind is a bit clouded, I believe she’s telling the truth p>
The brothers let out a collective sigh of relief.
“That’s good. As long as Winona is alive, Mom won’t lose hope p>
“Yeah, how are things progressing on your end?” Tarquin asked.
Elliot replied, “We’re getting somewhere. Zane is highly suspicious, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s behind it all p>
“Over the years, he’s exploited the Newsom family’s resources for his own gain. Just from what I’ve uncovered, there are three companies closely tied to him p>
“And those factories run by his relatives, all built with the Newsom family’s money p>
“Yet, the profits from those factories don’t benefit the Newsom family at all p>
“They’re all assets of the Livingston family p>
“And that rising star, Central Pharmaceuticals, it’s likely his too. I’m still digging into the specifics p>
Hearing about Central
Pharmaceuticals, Tarquin frowned. This new pharmaceutical company had been making waves and was. set to go public by the end of the year. Investors were eagerly awaiting the opportunity to pour money into it. The company’s prospects looked promising. Even he had taken notice, but he hadn’t imagined it was Zane’s!
Zane, the classic self-made man, was truly despicable, but undeniably clever.
Elliot continued, “I also looked into
that heft
penalty fee paid to the film
crew! It was wired from an offshore
encrypted account, and so far, I can’t link it back to Zane p>
Tarquin wasn’t surprised. Zane was a sly fox; he’d make sure to cover his tracks.
After Elliot finished, Elijah chimed in, “I’ve tracked Callum’s phone signal; it’s overseas p>
“But I can’t find Zane. His last known location was near the border, and then he vanished p>
Tarquin studied the spot Elijah had highlighted on the map. Nearby was a vast, uninhabited area. It made sense if Zane had gone there to find Winona. But whether he actually went searching for her remained a mystery. If not, what had he been doing during his disappearance?
After pondering for a moment, Tarquin pulled out his phone and made a call, arranging for someone to locate Callum and another team to investigate where Zane had been.
Elijah added, “According to Sarah and Winona’s last known appearances, Winona should still be somewhere in the country p>
Sarah hadn’t left the country, so if she could torment Winona, it meant Winona was still here. Plus, there were no records of her leaving the country.
But where could Winona be? She must be kept in an extremely secretive place.
When Winona was in trouble, she was constantly calling out for Elysia to save her p>
Tarquin suddenly realized something, and his brow furrowed!
