The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1023

The sky over H City suddenly darkened in the late afternoon, with storm clouds smothering the entire city. After flashes of lightning and thunder, a downpour started.

Paige hurriedly drove to the villa she had bought for Peyton. That afternoon, she had called many people who were frequently in contact with Peyton. However, in the past half-month, Peyton had not been in touch with anyone.

"Slow down, no rush!" Rosalynn, after getting out of the car, saw Paige almost trip on the front steps. She quickly ran over to help.

"I'm okay, I'm okay." Paige wasn't sure if she was speaking to Rosalynn or just reassuring herself. She ran to the front door, didn't unlock it directly, but rang the doorbell for a while. However, no one came to open the door. Even if Peyton wasn't home, there should be housekeepers, right? But there was no answer. Increasingly panicked, she used her fingerprint to unlock the door and entered the pitch-dark villa.

Paige switched on the light. "Mom?" She walked into the house and called out, but there was no response. Then, she hastily checked every room in the villa, but Peyton was nowhere to be found.

In the walk-in closet, Peyton's clothes, favorite handbags, and suitcases were all still there. She clearly hadn't gone far. Paige took a deep breath, pulled out her phone, and dialed Grant's number. But, Grant's phone kept ringing without any answer.

Angrily, Paige hung up, then dialed a strange number. After a few rings, the person on the other end picked up. Before Paige could speak, the person on the line anxiously started, "Paige?"

"Logan, has my mom contacted you recently?" Paige asked coldly, "Her friends haven't been able to reach her for half a month, Grant isn't answering my calls, can you confirm if my mom is with him?"

Logan was taken aback. "He's with me right now, your aunt isn't here."

"Give him the phone!!" Paige demanded angrily.

"He told me your mom wanted a divorce and she went back to you, didn't she come to see you?" Logan asked solemnly.

Paige's mind went blank, her legs went weak, and she almost fell.
