Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Ulterior Motives Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Ulterior Motives Grace Ziegler’s mind buzzed as if it were vibrating, and she hurried home.

Unable to contact her mother and worried that her mother might have encountered an accident, Daniel Marshall also went out looking for her.

The person previously in charge of tracking the bus continued to search along the bus route with even greater care.

It was already mealtime, and Ella Charles was hungry as well.

There were no shops near the bus station, just a large factory, so Ella had no choice but to walk forward, hoping to buy some food to satiate her hunger.

Daniel’s people arrived and asked the driver, but they didn’t see the person they were looking for.

The driver answered truthfully, saying that there had been a woman who had taken the wrong bus and had been waiting here just a moment ago; he didn’t know where she had gone now.

Daniel’s people split up to search, leaving only one person to wait at the bus station.

…

There were many factories in this area, and Ella Charles couldn’t even spot a convenience store.

Just as Ella was about to turn back, suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind her.

Ella Charles turned around and to her surprise, saw her daughter-in-law.

Immediately, Ella Charles smiled with relief, “Boss, I didn’t expect to find you here.”
Olivia Jenkins’ piercing eyes released an enigmatic observation towards the auntie she met for the second time and oddly felt a connection with, “Auntie, where are you headed?

This is a branch of my company; I came here for an inspection today.

Why don’t you come in and have a seat first?”
Ella felt embarrassed, lowered her eyes, and was about to refuse her daughter-in-law’s kind offer when her stomach suddenly let out a rumbling noise.

Instinctively, Ella Charles lowered her head even more, embarrassed, and clutched her luggage tightly to alleviate her discomfort.

Olivia Jenkins pulled a faint smile, softening the expression on her face.

Without speaking, Olivia Jenkins took the initiative to carry the luggage from the auntie’s hands.

Ella Charles was stunned; she lifted her head and looked at her daughter-in-law in astonishment, “I…

I’m sorry, I still need to take the bus.”
“Auntie, there’s still food in the cafeteria.

I’ll go get you something to eat.

I’ve just had my meal here; don’t be shy.”
Ella Charles was touched, her eyes starting to mist over with quiet tears, and a warm feeling inexplicably surged in her heart, “Thank you!”
“All around here are factory buildings; there are no small shops.

You won’t be able to buy anything outside.

There’s a vending machine inside the factory, but you won’t be able to access and make purchases.

Eat first, then go.

You also look a bit tired; take a moment to rest.”
“Okay!

You really are a good person, and good people get good karma!”
Olivia Jenkins merely smiled lightly, without saying anything.

Olivia Jenkins not only served the auntie food, but also got her a bowl of soup.

…

With her mother not at home, her phone turned off, and no way to contact her, Grace Ziegler panicked and also regretted speaking too harshly that morning.

Grace Ziegler was also baffled as to why Daniel Marshall had angrily lashed out at her.

Grace Ziegler was surprised that Daniel Marshall even knew that her mother had come to Serene City.

Could it be that her mother had already sought out Daniel Marshall?

Had her mother talked to Daniel Marshall?

Thinking about it, Grace Ziegler felt her heart unconsciously twist, her complexion growing more and more awful, as a sense of fear quietly rose in her eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, Grace Ziegler still called Daniel Marshall, “My mom isn’t at home, and I don’t know where she’s gone.

Her luggage is missing; could she have gone back to Binzhou?”
As she spoke, Grace Ziegler started to cry, pretending to be very upset.

Daniel’s hoarse voice still carried a hint of anger, completely ignoring Grace Ziegler’s emotional state.

At that moment, Daniel was only worried about his mother’s safety, “You don’t go anywhere; just stay at home.

I’ll go look for her.

Think carefully, did your mom say anything to you?”
Having already had a falling out with her mother, and after a very tense argument, Grace Ziegler didn’t dare to disclose the truth, “She didn’t say anything; I went to work as usual.

I told her not to wander off and that I would take her out after work.”
