Chapter 503
"...Do you think fire at an abandoned factory causing someone to burn to death would make it to the
local news?"
"Who knows." Hesper took a few steps backward to maintain a safe distance from 013 and said in a
cold voice, "You'd best not play with the lighter. I don't want to die with a psycho."
"Hahahaha, don't worry. We can agree on that much. I don't want to die with you either."
Hesper scoffed. "Really, Mr. Tucker?"
Hearing that name, 013 froze. Keeping her eyes on him, Hesper watched as he removed his mask and
showed the familiar face underneath.
"How could you tell?"
013's eyes were unsmiling on Seth's face. "Ms. Rivera, you should hide when you learn someone's
secret so no one else will find out… I guess you're done with life."

After searching for Hesper but failing to find any clues about her whereabouts, everyone knew that
every minute she wasn't found meant she was a minute closer to danger.
Rickard frowned and called Renfrew.
"Mr. Duval…" Ricakrd raised his hand to stop Mrs. Potter. Renfrew soon picked up. He was wearing a
little suit, as if he put some thought into it. When he saw Rickard, he raised his chin a little arrogantly.
"You finally remembered that it's my birthday?"
"..." Rickard pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. "Hesper is missing. Can you get in touch with Zoya?"
Renfrew froze and his phone shook. Anxiety could clearly be seen on his face, and he was no longer
smiling. NôvelDrama.Org content.
"I'll try to contact her. How long has Mommy been missing? Have you tried to locate her phone?"
Rickard shook his head. "I've tried everything. The phone is in a field somewhere near the office.
They've had experience in this and were more careful this time."
"Alright."
Renfrew hung up. Rickard grasped his phone tightly.
'Hesper… Where are you?'
Meanwhile, Matthew received information from Renee. Even though there was no proof that River A.
was Hesper, it was too much of a coincidence.
They both appeared around the same time, studied in Fredonia U, knew Roberto, and were designers.
There were too many coincidences.
There are no two leaves that look alike, so how could two people be so similar?
Even though Matthew had never seen face-changing before, he heard that plastic surgery was very
advanced, so it wasn't difficult for someone to have a new face.
River A. used a wheelchair—Hesper had injuries on her legs. If the injury had worsened, she would
need a wheelchair.
The more Matthew thought about it, the harder his heart thumped.
'My Hesper… Was that you?'
