Chapter 483 - Noah (2)

The driver took a glance at him with mixed feelings before getting into the car.

Ferne was speechless.

The door of the Peck's was wide open. A few servants were sweeping the fallen leaves. When they saw Ferne, they all greeted him warmly, "Mr. Ferne, would you like some tea?"

Ferne waved his hand and said, "No, I'll just take my things and leave."

The servants thought that he did not know Trevor had gone. Seeing him walking up the garret, they said, "Mr. Trevor has moved out."

"I know. He left something for me." Ferne held his belly while carefully going upstairs. He couldn't use too much strength on his waist and belly now. That would hurt.

The room in the garret remained the same as before as if Trevor would come back anytime.

Every time Ferne came into this room, he felt depressed. Even though the lights were all on, the room was still oppressive. He pushed open the door and saw a pile of documents on the bed.

Ferne took the documents and glanced at them with the light outside. The first line was Noah's original name Rodney. So, the name he had mentioned earlier was his real name.

Just as Ferne was about to continue, his phone rang again. It was Captain Randy. He picked it up.

"I heard that you were discharged from the hospital. Why didn't you tell me?" Captain Randy asked.

"I don't want to bother you."

"We will go to visit you anyway. This time, you and your friend have made great contributions." Said Captain Randy.

Ferne held the documents in his hand and came out with his phone in the other hand. "Captain Randy, my friend doesn't like to show up in public. He told me that if there's any commendable ceremony, I can do it for him."

"Is that so?" Captain Randy couldn't understand, "Why should he turn down such great opportunities?"

"That's him." Ferne smiled and said, "But he is short of money. If you can turn the reward into money, I think he will take it."

"That's easy. I'll fill out an application." Captain Randy sighed again, "Joe told me that your friend did an amazing job for us. To be honest, he can be a great policeman in all respects, except that he hasn't attended the military academy. I want to ask him if he is interested in joining us ... By the way, do you have his phone number. I'll ask him by myself."

"Alright, I'll give you his number. You can call him."

They chatted a while longer and Ferne asked, "Have Merinda said anything?"

"Yes, almost everything. Many of the cases happened more than ten years ago. We have to go through the files one by one and compare them. I have to say, this case is really complicated. You and your friend have helped a lot."

"Captain Randy, I don't deserve this."

"Deserve what? I have something else to do so I have to go. Remember to send me his phone number."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Ferne sent Noah's number to Captain Randy.

He came down from the garret and happened to meet Arabella who had just got home. It had been a few days since he saw her. Arabella had changed a lot. She was in a woman's suit and her long hair was tied behind her head, which made her look capable.

When she got out of the car and saw Ferne, she only nodded at him. Then, she walked in.

Though from a distance, Ferne could hear her talking to her phone, "Ask for the designer's idea first, and don't reject him for now..."

She could actually talk in such a calm tone, and she was talking about the idea of a designer.

Ferne felt that everything changed.

Since when had everyone changed?

He pondered. It seemed that since the day Vincent met Emily, all the people in her life had come into their lives. First, Noah and Christy, then Emma and Stony, then Janessa. Finally, the whole group of people had a chemical reaction together, which changed everyone's lifestyle.

He hadn't been to the hotel for a long time. Ferne waved to stop a taxi. Then, he laid in the back seat and flipped through Noah's information. The first few pages were all Noah's activities in recent years. And the last page was his birth record.

Before Ferne could even finish the first page, Noah called him back, "Where are you?"

"In the car." Ferne felt guilty and quickly covered the information on his chest. "I'm going to the hotel right now."

"I'll go find you."

Was he so nice?

Ferne got a little excited. Did he finally make up his mind to come over and profess his feelings because that he was now divorced?

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, Ferne checked his WeChat, replied to a few comments, and put away his phone at last. Just as he picked up the documents on his chest, he heard the driver say, "Here we are."

"Thanks." Ferne took out his wallet and paid. Just as he was about to get out of the car, Joe called.

He smiled as he got out of the car and asked, "What's up? Did Captain Randy ask me to get the reward?"

Joe said weakly, "Ferne, I was just flipping through the file and saw something..."

"What is it?" Ferne walked towards the hotel, being excited because Noah was on his way here.

"I think it's Noah." Joe stuttered, "In the picture, he is at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and it looks very similar to him. But I'm not sure, because the name is different."

"What's that name?" Ferne stopped and asked.

"Rodney." Joe said.

It was indeed Noah.

But what kind of criminal record could a 14–15-year-old have?

Ferne asked, "Got caught stealing?"

"No..." Joe stuttered, "Ferne, you'd better come over and have a look..."

Ferne was a little panicked somehow.

"Alright, wait for me."
