Chapter 154: Clue (1)

At the Kingsley estate, Victor searched his father's study looking for any clues about Noelle. His time was spent between being his father's shadow and searching for clues about Noelle's disappearance. 

All Victor learned was that it was true that Noelle had not returned home yet no one here could tell him when or why she left. Many of the servants here were new at this point and the ones who were around Noelle's time remained tightlipped about her. 

Victor knew that his mother disliked Noelle but to order the servants to not speak of her was on another level. Something happened here and he was going to uncover it. 

"No wonder he will not return," Victor said, understanding Ian's feelings more. The woman he saw as another mother was messing and no one wanted to speak of it. "Where does he keep-"

"Your father will soon return home," said Tom, the family butler. "You must make haste and put everything back in order."
