Chapter 1152 He didn't keep anything from her. "Keaton said Callum's been out of touch for over a month." Elysia looked genuinely surprised.
"No way, just the other day he was texting me." Yeah...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTarquin thought for a moment before handing his phone to Elysia.
"Give Callum a call, pretend you're asking about Winona." "Alright!" Elysia dialed the number. Callum's phone was ringing, but no one picked up. However, just like last time, Callum quickly texted back: [Bad timing, I'm busy again. Is it urgent?] Tarquin frowned and coached Elysia to reply, [Yes, it's urgent.] Callum: [Then text me. I can't talk right now, but I can message back.] Tarquin's frown deepened. As they exchanged messages, it becclear: the person texting wasn't Callum! Tarquin's expression darkened. Who was pretending to be Callum, and why only reach out to Elysia? Callum and Elysia...
Suddenly, a thought struck Tarquin. Winona! The only connection between Callum and Elysia was Winona. All their conversations revolved around her.
Tarquin was gripped by a sense of foreboding.
He looked at Elysia, his expression complex and unreadable.
Elysia sensed something was off and asked, furrowing her brow, "What's going on?" Before Tarquin could respond, Keaton's call cthrough.

As soon as the call connected, Keaton was quick to ask, "What did Elysia say?" "Someone's using Callum's identity to contact her, talking about Winona." Keaton responded immediately, 1.n "That fits! Callum's disappearance is definitely linked to Winona! I just got scrucial news: Winona's manager died ages ago, and Callum was investigating her before he went missing!" Tarquin was silent for a moment.
Keaton elaborated, "After Mr. Leblanc called, I started digging into Callum's situation." "Two months ago, a woman's body was found overseas. Online rumors suggested it might be Winona's manager." "But no one could reach Winona's manager to confirm, because a year ago, they announced they were off filming in secret and haven't been seen since." "Without confirmation, Callum decided to investigate, worried about Winona's whereabouts." "Callum's concern for Winona drove him to identify that body." Tarquin's brow was tightly furrowed. "Are we sure the body was Winona's manager?" Keaton was firm, "One hundred percent sure!" Tarquin remained silent.
Keaton continued, "I discreetly contacted Winona's film crew. They confirmed they were filming in secret, but Winona wasn't the lead actress."
"The crew said they had just arrived in the mountains and hadn't started filming yet when Winona's manager canceled her contract, paying a hefty penalty." "The reason given was Winona had personal issues, mental health struggles, and couldn't continue."
"The manager asked the crew not to announce the cancellationso M Winona dould take tto recover." "So, the public still thinks she's filming in secret.'
Tarquin's expression was grave. The manager had quietly handled m Winona's contract termination. But the manager's body was found overseas. So where on earth was Winona now? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
