Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 274

Jocelyn didn't notice that her mother was missing until the next day.

She had been with Luke in a hotel the previous day. When she got home and saw that Fiona was still not back, she instantly smelled something fishy. She then asked Bernie uneasily, "Dad, where is my mom? It's so late. Why isn't she back home yet?"

Bernie harbored inveterate hatred for Fiona now that he knew what she had done. Her whereabouts was no longer his business. With his legs crossed, he glued his eyes to the TV and responded, "Am I your mother's keeper? I don't know where she is, and nor do I care!"

Jocelyn didn't have the strength to argue with her father. She just slammed the door and left angrily.

Since she couldn't get through to her mother or find her, she decided to file a missing person report at the police station.

But the efforts of the police were also futile. When they checked the surveillance cameras along the way, they found that Fiona was last seen at the shopping mall. But then she had suddenly vanished out of sight. The cops blamed this on blind spots and the busy crowd in the shopping mall. They indirectly told Jocelyn that there was nothing more they could do.

Since Jocelyn had exhausted all her options, she was forced to ask Luke for help. "Mr. Turner, please help me this time."

She burst into tears and was out of breath.

Luke still fancied her for the time being, so he was prepared to do whatever she wanted.

"Hey, don't cry. Don't worry, your mother will be found. I'll ask my men to look for her immediately." Luke had the best private investigators on his payroll, so he thought this matter was a piece of cake.

Much to his surprise, his men found no trace of Fiona after combing the nooks and crannies of the city.

"Do you know if your mother offended someone? My men weren't able to find any clue. Perhaps one of her enemies is behind her disappearance," said Luke.

The Turner family was one of the most powerful families in Seacisco. Only a few people could compete with them.
