"Who took Melanie Carpenter away?"
"The hospital said it was Miss Carpenter's father who took her."
Adrian Desmond's face filled with shock. Hearing this news was like encountering a ghost in broad daylight. "My uncle has been dead for many years," he stated.
Walter Klein naturally knew about this as well. He said, "Someone must have impersonated him."
"Who would be so bored as to impersonate someone who has been dead for so many years?"
Walter couldn't answer this question. Upon suddenly hearing this news, his shock was no less than Adrian's. Melanie Carpenter was an orphan with no influential backing; Walter couldn't fathom who would be interested in her. If someone wanted to use Melanie to threaten Adrian, kidnapping Sienna Johnson and Curly, or even Sixth Master's mother-in-law and sister-in-law, would be far more effective. Yet, they had taken Melanie from the Psychiatric Hospital.
"Find out!" Adrian ordered.
"Yes, Sixth Master!"
