Chapter 334: Time To Look For Fiona
But it wasn’t a fortunate one.
Xavier didn’t want to believe his very own father could be related to Anastasia’s kidnapping. The odds were almost impossible.
“So, what did you find out about him?” Xavier asked, facing Ezekiel this time around.
Ezekiel handed a file to Xavier. “Bruce owns a company in Glamourwood, but he barely visits there. He has someone in charge who manages the company for him. A few CCTV footage have captured him going to influential parties and he just attended one yesterday. And not once had any of the footage caught him with Xander before.”
“He doesn’t seem to be hiding at all, unlike Xander,” Tracie murmured.
“Maybe that’s what he wants us to think,” said Xavier. “If Xander is still with him, then all we have to do is get to Bruce.”
“He’s currently in Glamourwood,” Ezekiel informed.
Although they still didn’t know where Anastasia could be, they’d found someone who could lead them to her. And as for Mr. Wallace, they could only hope he was not involved in what was happening.
Xavier had only seen Bruce once, and that was when he’d arrived with his father at the same time at the hospital, which meant it was not a mere coincidence.
Ever since he asked his father about Xander, Xavier never saw Bruce and his father together. Neither did he see Xander until the latter came from out of nowhere and snatched his wife away to somewhere he didn’t know.
“Since that’s the case, we don’t need to question him. If he finds out we’re suspecting him of being in cohorts with Xander, he might decide to go into
hiding and we’ll never see him again.”
Ezekiel nodded in understanding. “I’ve already asked my men to keep an eye on him. We’ll monitor him for now and wait to see if Xander pays him any visit.”
“But we can’t just sit and watch now, can we?” Tracie interjected. “And also, Bruce is not the only one we need to keep an eye on.” She didn’t have to say the name for everyone to know whom she was talking about.
Xavier knew he needed to keep an eye on his father, and he’d made a mental note to do so. Each time he recalled how his father had demanded he forget about Anastasia simply made his blood boil. However, this could just be a coincidence. It still wasn’t enough to prove that his father was working with Bruce.
And if he was, Xander wasn’t sure what he was going to do to his father…
“You don’t have to worry about that,” he assured her.
Tracie cleared her throat.
“I want to officially partake in the search for Anastasia,” she suddenly announced, catching them off guard.
After waking up in the hospital a few days after the incident took place, Tracie had become more isolated than she’d been.
“I know my help probably wouldn’t make a difference but I just want to do something instead of just staying home and crying all the time.”
A grin played on Ezekiel’s lips as he stared at her.
“You’re talking like you need some kind of an official permit before you can join in the search.”
“Shut up.” She muttered.
A smile graced Ezekiel’s lips, happy that Tracie was willing to come out of her cage now. But that smile faltered when he realized something.
“Xavier, regarding Arabella, was her killer ever caught?” He asked with curiosity laced in his tone.
Xavier shook his head. “They were never found and the case was closed the day my father bailed me from prison. I wonder who could have killed her and put the blame on me.”
“Did she have any enemies in high school?” Kael asked this time.
“Only competitors since she was the most intelligent girl in our class. And even if she did, I don’t think they would go as far as killing her. Years ago, I tried to get my father to check for any CCTV cameras in the area but unfortunately, there weren’t. And the worst part of it, there were no eyewitnesses,” he explained.
“That’s odd,” Ezekiel mumbled.

Before the separation of the Clark and the Wallace families, Ezekiel and Tracie had met and heard of Arabella a couple of times since they’d all been childhood friends. But after the separation, their father forbade them from being friends with the Wallace children and even their friends. So hearing Arabella die from out of nowhere was not only shocking but also suspicious.
“I tried asking my classmates back then if they knew anyone that held a grudge against Arabella, and they mentioned Fiona because she was jealous Arabella was dating Xander.”
“Did you get the chance to speak with her?” Tracie questioned and Xavier shook his head.
“I texted her a few times asking for us to meet and talk. She read them but never replied. She stopped coming to school too and a few days later, I heard her family had traveled out of the country for her to continue her education abroad.”
“What the—she knows something,” Tracie confirmed. “Or perhaps she’d the one that killed Arabella.”
Xavier gave it some thought before he shook his head in denial. “I don’t think so. Arabella was stabbed several times in the stomach, and her fingers were cut off too. It’s something too gruesome for Fiona to do.”
“Her family is rich! She could have had her father order his men to get rid of Arabella for her all in the name of jealousy.” Tracie scoffed at the end of her words. “We need to find her and get her jailed immediately for what she’d done.”
“And once again, you’re jumping into conclusions. We can’t be sure of anything until we do our research first,” said Ezekiel.
“In that case, I’ll be in charge of looking for Fiona while the both of you continue searching for Anastasia, because I’m sure whoever changed the fingerprints on Arabella’s body did that so that there would be a cold war between you and Xander,” she responded, looking more determined than they’d ever seen her.
