Chapter 1031

You Hit My Heart

For some reason, Luther had a bad feeling in his heart.

Ms. Armstrong had just handed over Joyce's pendant to him, and

surprisingly she disappeared. What could that mean?

He asked all the staff up and down the orphanage, and no one knew

about what happened that year when Charlotte was taken away by the

Heath family.

In his extreme disappointment, he was informed that there was once a

cleaner, who had now resigned, and she might know a little bit of the

inside story.

After he knew that, he used his connections.

The cleaner's current address was soon found to be a dilapidated

house on the outskirts of Khebury.

Today, Luther woke up early.

He drove to the outskirts of Khebury.

He found that house easily, and he soon found the cleaner, Mrs. Barr.

Mrs. Barr, who was nearly 70 years old, had just retired that year and

took a part-time job in the orphanage to earn some money for her

retirement.

It was the first time in her life that she had seen such a dignified upper

class person like Luther, who drove a luxury car that she had never

seen before, and wore a haute couture suit that she didn't even dare to

touch.

She was at a loss for words, her wrinkles were all tangled together, and

she looked even older.

Although, someone from the orphanage had called her in advance in

the morning and said that Mr. Warner, the patron of the orphanage,

would come to see her.

She was prepared for it.

But when she saw the legendary richest man, Mr. Warner, she couldn't

help but feel weak in the knees.

"Ma'am, I wanted to ask you about something."

Luther stood in front of the door of the dilapidated house, with the

musty smell wafting around and the rotting smell of garbage that hadn't

been disposed of in time.

He frowned and forced himself to hold back his discomfort.

He did not want anyone to handle Joyce's matter, so he did everything

personally.

"Mr. Warner, you, how are you? How may I help you?" Mrs. Barr asked

respectfully.

“I would like to ask you, four years ago, the Heath family from the

Capital was looking for their lost daughter, they found the Khebury

Orphanage, and finally they identified Charlotte as their daughter. How

much do you know about it? Tell me everything you know.

When Luther finished, he handed Mrs. Barr the handbag he had

brought with him.

He opened it and it was full of stacks of cash.

“This money is enough for you to change a house. You can have it, but

of course, with one condition. Whatever I ask you today, you must keep

it a secret.”

Luther said.

Mrs. Barr had never seen so much money in her life.

She said nervously, “I, I do know something. But, I'm afraid I can't

answer you properly, so how dare I take so much money from you."

"It doesn't matter. Just tell me what you know and the money is all

yours." Luther was emotionless.

"Oh, good. And I really know something inside. At that time, the, the

Capital family, the very powerful family from the Capital... They said

they lost their daughter, they had been looking for her for twenty years,

and they said they had information that the child might be in Khebury,

and they asked Ms. Armstrong to find and show them all the children

with the right age.”

Mrs. Barr said, gesturing, "There was a lot of information, and Ms.

Armstrong asked me to help her look through it. The two of us

searched for a long time and finally found two children who fit all the

criteria described by the Heath family.”

"Which two children?" Luther held his breath and listened to her

intently.

"I remember well, Charlotte was one, and the other..." she paused,

thinking, "and the other one was called ... Joyce!"

Luther's eyes narrowed.

Sure enough!
