His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2681

There was no signature.

"Oh, there's no signature on the card so you might need to ask around to see which one of your friends wrote this," Anne continued.

Lucas held onto the card for dear life; even without a signature, he knew that it was from Irene because she was the only one who would call him Mr. Lucas'.

"Isn't Irene dead?" he thought. "When did she write this card? Before she died?"

"Ma'am, do you know how often the feedback box is opened?" he swallowed hard and asked.

Anna shook her head. "I'm not so sure about that. Should I call and ask?"

"Please do."

She picked up her phone and called the dean's secretary and asked the question on Lucas's behalf.

"We do it randomly, depending on my schedule. I sometimes open it once a month, sometimes once every other month, but I won't leave the box untouched for over three months at a time."

The hope that rose within Lucas vanished as he was led to believe that Irene wrote him the message before her death.

"Why did she put it in the feedback box, though? Did she think that I would see this if she did so?" he thought. "That has to be it. If she hung it on the tree, I probably wouldn't have seen it."

Tears welled in his eyes at the memories of Irene.

"Lucas, why are you crying?" Anna handed him a box of tissue paper.
