Quinn replied indignantly, "Aurous Hill had always been the focus of my father's investigation. My dad had also made several trips here. He used all of his connections and relationships to investigate and look into the background of all the boys in Aurous Hill who were about the same age as you. He even checked and investigated this matter several times. My father had already checked every rescue station, orphanage, and private welfare organization in Oskia to look for you, but there was absolutely no information about you anywhere at all!" 9
"That’s impossible!" Charlie blurted out, "I've been living at the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute for ten years, ever since I was eight until the day I turned eighteen. Moreover, I have not changed my name ever since the day I entered the orphanage. My parents named me Charlie Wade, and all the personal information that I filled out in the orphanage was also under the name Charlie Wade. If Uncle Golding made a trip here, he would definitely have found me then!"
Quinn replied confidently, "That is impossible! In the past ten years, my father had already made no less than five trips to Aurous Hill personally! The number o f times he sent someone to look for you is even more! H e already used all of the connections and relationships that he had to find you, but he could not find any information or clues leading to your
whereabouts at all.” 9 "I can still remember the last time my father came to Aurous Hill. It was during summer vacation when I was eighteen years old and preparing to head to the United Kingdom to further my studies. My father brought me here with him on my strong insistence. Both of us stayed here in Aurous Hill for more than two weeks. We hired hundreds of subordinates, informants, and private investigators to seek various clues and information, but we got nothing on you at all." 6
As Charlie listened to Quinn's words and when he saw the extremely serious and excited look on her face, he started to feel a surge of panic in his heart. 1
Ever since the death of his parents, Charlie had rarely felt lost or confused. However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a strong sense of tension and panic.
He began to suspect that there were fraud and deception behind his sad childhood.
He had already been staying at the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute for ten years. If Yule had tried his best to look for him several times, it would have been completely possible for him to find him at the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute.
So, why had he always been unable to find him even though he had always been living at the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute?
Was there something wrong with the orphanage? 5
Could it be that the orphanage was deliberately concealing his personal information? 6
If so, who could possibly have instructed the orphanage to do that?
