Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228 A Familiar Place

When I returned to my office, I sought Grayson and gave him a task. Coincidentally, he also handed me a report of his investigation. I was surprised to receive it so quickly. I couldn’t help but admire his efficiency

and praise him.

However, Grayson was serious when he said, “Don’t get too excited, Ms. Chloe. This is just surface–level Information, and there seem to be no issues at all. Still, my gut feeling tells me something’s off.”

The investigation report was about Stella, detailing her birth, parents‘ passing, adoption, and school

history.

“It’s right here.” Grayson pointed something out. “It says she attended primary school here, one of the most famous schools in Nocturnia. However, I couldn’t find any pictures of her from that period..

“Ms. Chloe, don’t you think something’s amiss? That detail makes me uneasy. Please give me more time

I looked at them and felt a tug in my mind. The scenery in those photos seemed oddly familiar. I glanced at Grayson and said, “Is… this school in Nocturnia?”

“Yes!” he nodded.
