Holding the drawing in her hands, Celia stepped into the police officer's office. She handed over the drawing and shared the intel provided by Wilbur and Malia.

"Thank you, Ms. Stanton," nodded the police officer as he accepted the drawing.

He then conducted a thorough online search. Soon, he discovered a company where employees were mandated to wear company-issued wristbands.

The symbols on these wristbands uncannily mirrored those depicted in the drawing.

Despite its appearance as an ordinary establishment, this company offered unusually high salaries—three to four times higher than the norm.

    There had been a whirlwind of events in the past few days. Celia had managed to uncover numerous leads for the police investigation. However, the other side was equally cunning, swiftly relocating to evade detection. Nonetheless, Celia refused to resign herself to the situation. As the truth behind the human trafficking came to light, many online sympathized with Selena and Freya. After all, no one would want to be abducted at such a young age. However, Freya struggled to accept the reality. Throughout her life, her parents had showered her with love, leading her to believe that Selena was the only adopted one. She had never suspected the same for herself. It was no wonder she and Selena looked so much alike. Though Selena had repeatedly told her they were twin sisters when they were young, Freya had never believed it. She was steadfast in her belief that she was the biological daughter of the Jenkins family. Now, faced with the truth, she had no choice but to accept it.

    How could a sudden car accident have occurred, especially on a major road and not even at a turn? How did two vehicles collide with each other? Yardley sensed that something was amiss. He gently caressed Celia's exposed skin and promptly assigned his two assistants to keep an eye on her, concerned that she might have encountered any further troubles. As Yardley observed Celia in an unconscious state, he couldn't bring himself to leave.

    The following day, with the dawn breaking, the police officers who had been discreetly tailing Troy presented the data from the past few days. As expected, they discovered that right after Troy left the police station, he headed toward the headquarters where the police had been surveilling. However, he abruptly changed course and went to another location for some reason. It seemed he had caught wind of the police investigation at the headquarters and swiftly shifted the location.

While the car accident garnered some attention, the blurry footage made it impossible for netizens to discern the identities of those involved. Since the car incident happened suddenly, no one informed the reporters about Celia's accident. As a result, a large group of reporters spent the entire afternoon waiting in vain. The press conference was supposed to be live-streamed online, and both netizens and reporters waited for Celia and Freya the whole afternoon. However, they were nowhere to be seen. This immediately sparked anger among netizens. "What's going on with Celia and Freya? Are they acting all high and mighty? We've been waiting for the press conference all afternoon, and they'r
