Chapter 1497: Unwavering Longing, Echoed Response [4]

The results of last night’s investigation by Leonel Thomas are out. Ariel Morris and Arlo Seys come to City S ostensibly for real estate investment, but in reality, every time they come, they stay in this small town under the jurisdiction of City S for a whole week.

This is the biggest doubt. The voice yesterday, he couldn’t have heard it wrong! It was her voice!

Thus, he thinks that maybe there really are miracles in this world... And this miracle is that Nicole is still alive...

Jose Floyd searches the ancient town, earnestly searching, using the photo of Nicole on his phone, getting it printed at a copy shop, and asking the local store owners with the photo.

In this way, Jose Floyd searched for several hours in the ancient town without taking a break, not even taking a drink of water, holding Nicole’s photo as he asked person by person.

Because he doesn’t want to miss out again. If he had been a bit faster yesterday, he might have encountered her, so he can’t stop, can’t rest, has to find her!

Arlo Seys covered up everything about Nicole, Wade, and Niki’s old residence, making it impossible for Leonel Thomas to even find an address or house number; otherwise, it wouldn’t be this troublesome.

Thinking of Arlo Seys, Jose Floyd is both resentful and helpless, and at least understands Arlo Seys’ attitude towards Jorge.

He wants to fight him, but can’t make a move. If he strikes back, and Arlo, as the current head of the Seys Family, stops Nicole from marrying him, what would he do?

Just like Arlo Seys to Jorge, the big brother-in-law who is clearly disliked yet unbeatable, and one doesn’t dare to easily offend him. After all, it’s falling for someone’s sister, one has to endure the big brother-in-law’s teasing on bent knees until one marries the person!

The clouds tumble at the horizon, quickly stirring winds and clouds. The rain comes down in large drops, causing the tourists who were originally playing to quickly hide under the eaves of open shops.

Jose Floyd bought an umbrella from the roadside stall and, holding Nicole’s photo, went from person to person among the crowd seeking shelter.

"Hey, I’ve seen this person—this morning I bumped into her buying something, just on the street west of the town, the one planted with willow trees."

Jose Floyd held the photo, his fingertips trembling, suppressing his excitement, he hoarsely asked: "Did you see clearly? Was it her?"

The girl knocked carefully, nodding her head, "Yes, it was her, wearing a pair of pearl earrings, identical to the earrings in your photo. Sir, did you get separated while traveling the ancient town with your wife?"

The girl kindly asked more questions.

Jose Floyd chuckled softly in response, gently nodding, his voice low and raspy, yet patiently replying: "Yes, separated... I got separated from my wife, I’m here to find her, take her home."

"Then you should go find her quickly, I can see you really love your wife. I wish you find your wife, that the two of you may have a happy union."

"Yes."

Jose Floyd lightly nodded towards the girl, opened the umbrella, carefully tucked the photo into his pocket, fearing the rain would get it wet, cherishing it dearly.

Jose Floyd walked towards the street she mentioned, braving the heavy rain, undeterred by wind and rain, searching relentlessly.

The girl watched his departing back, sighed: "Ah, other people’s boyfriend... can I get one too!!"

Jose Floyd searched the entire street but didn’t see a trace of Nicole, looking at the closed doors of yard after yard, Jose Floyd stood in the rain, his eyes full of sorrow, couldn’t help but hoarsely shout: "Nicole, I’ve thought of you for two and a half years, I’ve missed you for two and a half years! Are you still hiding?!"
