Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Chapter 1133 The Man In The Photo As soon as Arielle heard his voice, she could not contain her excitement and exclaimed, âMr. Lambert!
Are you on campus right now?â
âYes. Iâll be waiting for you in my office.â
âAll right. Iâll head there right now.â After hanging up, Arielle spun on her heels and informed Vinson ecstatically, âLetâs go meet the president. Ms. Selena said he might know the identity of the man in the photo.â
Vinson was happy for her. âI havenât met Mr. Lambert in a long while. Letâs visit him together then,â he said as he took her hand.
Arielle bobbed her head as uneasiness arose in her heart.
Her sixth sense told her she was near to finding out the truth. However, she could not stop the panic from flaring within her.
Sensing the changes in her emotions, Vinson squeezed her hand. âDonât worry. Iâm here with you.â
âMmh,â Arielle responded firmly.
Vinsonâs with me, so I donât have to be afraid.
Indeed, there was no need for her to fear anything.
Soon, they knocked on the presidentâs door.
Selena opened the door for them and was pleased and gratified to see them walking hand in hand.
Iâm happy to see my two favorite students together.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, she said, âThe admission list has just been released, so I have many matters to attend to. You two can head in and talk to Mr. Lambert. Heâs waiting for you. Well, I shall take my leave now.â
âSure. Goodbye!â
The couple watched as Selena walked away before entering the presidentâs office.
The president of Maxwell University, Rasmus Lambert, was in his fifties. He sported white hair and a bushy beard. With his features, he looked like Santa Claus, wise and benevolent.
âOh, I canât believe my eyes.â Rasmus clicked his tongue. âFate has brought you two together.â
Arielle was embarrassed to hear that. Nonetheless, she remembered the main purpose of her trip there and showed the old photo to Rasmus, not bothering to beat around the bush.
âMr. Lambert, do you know him?â she asked.
Rasmus took the photo from her and put on his thick glasses to study the man in it.
The next second, his eyes widened.
âHeâ¦â
Arielleâs heart raced as she hastened to question, âDo you know him?â
âYes.â Rasmus nodded. âItâs one of my regrets. He graduated from our university and worked here as a professor for a while. However, after heading to Chanaea, he never returned. It was as though he had disappeared into thin air. I even made a police report as I was afraid something had happened to him.
Later, I realized he had left deliberately.â
He paused before asking, âWhy do you have his photo?â
Biting her lip, Arielle pointed at the woman beside the man and explained, âThe woman beside him is my mother. You know Mrs. Wilhelm is my foster mother, right? This is my birth mother.â
Rasmus was dumbstruck. Staring at the intimate couple in the photo, he asked in surprise, âHowâ¦
How is he related to your mother?â
Arielle shrugged. âThat is what I want to find out. Ten years ago, my mom died in an accident. I suspect it was related to him. However, the photo suggested they werenât enemies. Mr. Lambert, this has bothered me a lot. I need to find him and figure out the truth behind my momâs death. I want to find out the culprit.â
And then Iâll avenge her!
âHeâ¦â Rasmus sighed. âWell, he is a mysterious man. I only have a rough understanding of his true identity after his disappearance.â
