Rebirth and Finding the One Truly Loves Me by Christina

Chapter 218 She Found Him

In the small group of eight people consisting of Sterling, Audrey, Ingrid, Eden, Jase, Bruno, Patrick, and

Chloe.

Eden mentioned Chloe and Sterling separately.

Eden: I hoped Chloe would wake up soon! No matter what rumors were spreading outside, I

unconditionally believed in Sterling!

Ingrid: Me too!

Jase, Bruno, and Patrick all agreed one after another.

Audrey sat in front of her desk, looking at the messages in the chat group. Hot tears rolled down her

cheeks and uncontrollably fell onto the screen.

She tightly bit her lip, and her long eyelashes, wet with tears, kept trembling.

Sterling, did you see it?

Your best brother, your best friend, both believed in you!

No matter how other classmates see or think, as long as the person he cares about the most believes

in him, it is enough!

Audrey’s fingertips trembled slightly as she replied to the message, “Thank you for believing in him!”

Eden: What should we do now?

Audrey: You went, with me to a place.

Patrick: Audrey, where are you going? I want to go too!

Jase: Me too.

Audrey You guys stayed still at home, and it would startle the snake if there were too many people.

Sterling couldn’t have disappeared for no reason. If he didn’t harm Chloe, then the culprit is still hiding

in the dark. It’s not good to startle the snake and make things more difficult!

Audrey came downstairs, and Danna, who was making snacks with her, quickly grabbed her and

asked, “Audrey, where are you going?”

“Grandma, I went out to do something.”

After Chloe’s incident, Danna worried about Audrey and tightly held her little hand, saying, “Grandma is

worried about you going out!”

“Grandma, I would protect myself well.”

Danna saw Audrey’s determination and had to give in. “You can go out, but Grandma will have to

arrange two bodyguards to protect you.”

Audrey couldn’t do anything about it and had to nod in agreement.

The bodyguards arranged by Danna were all professionally trained. Audrey instructed them to hide in

the shadows and only come out if she truly encountered danger.

Audrey drove to pick up Eden.

Eden saw her driving towards Maple Mountain and asked in confusion, “Are we going to Maple

Mountain? The police and search. teams have looked there and haven’t found any sign of Sterling!”

Audrey pursed her lips, her gaze clear and calm. “Chloe tightly held

the cufflinks I gave to Sterling. Now we have both eyewitness and physical evidence. Unless we find

him in person, he can’t clear his name even if he jumps into the Yellow River!”

The suspect was quite clever and did not leave any evidence at Chloe’s place.

The police, based on various aspects, have identified Sterling as a major suspect..

Of course, based on the existing evidence, he was indeed the prime suspect!

“Perhaps Charlie wasn’t lying, he might have actually seen Sterling in the middle of the night, except

what he saw wasn’t the real Sterling, but an imposter disguised as Sterling!”

“How Sterling’s cufflinks were stolen by counterfeit goods, this still needs to be verified!”

“Sterling disappeared from the mountain, so there must be traces of his disappearance on the

mountain!”

Eden couldn’t help but be amazed as she watched Audrey calmly. analyze the situation while driving.

No wonder the gloomy and indifferent Sterling was conquered by Audrey. Audrey is truly intelligent and

wise, not just a pretty face!

Eden looked at Audrey’s fair and delicate profile and sighed slightly, “She truly deserves the affection I

once had! My taste is indeed as good as Sterling’s!”

Audrey didn’t hear what Eden said clearly, she glanced at him and asked, “What did you just say?”

Eden touched the back of his head and said, “It’s nothing.”

The car stopped at the foot of Maple Mountain.

Audrey and Eden arrived at the camping site last night without stopping for a moment.

The two of them began to search separately for the possible places. Sterling might have passed

through.

But Maple Mountain was very big, and the two of them searched until it got dark, but they didn’t find

any trace at all.

After searching continuously for two days, Audrey finally noticed something unusual 300 meters

southwest of the campsite.

“Eden, what do you see here?”

Audrey squatted down and pulled over a slightly blo ody red leaf that had fallen.

Eden bent down and took a look, slightly widening his eyes, “Bloodstains!”

Audrey sniffed at it and then got up and walked forward.

Every few steps, one or two drops of blood could be seen.

Some were diluted by the morning dew, not very noticeable, but still a faint trace could be seen.

Audrey and Eden walked down the path.

After walking for nearly six to seven hundred meters. I found that there was no road ahead.

However, there was a cliff that seemed endless.

Audrey’s heart tightened all of a sudden.

Eden looked down and his face turned pale. “Will Sterling fall down?”

Audrey closed her eyes and, under the gentle breeze, she heard the sound of her own heartbeat and

the sound of her rapid breathing.

But soon, she calmed down.

“Let’s go down and have a look.”

Both of them were tied with ropes. Audrey had the two bodyguards. pull her, while she and Eden went

down from the cliff separately.

Eden’s legs were initially feeling weak, but after glancing at Audrey, he mustered up the courage to

continue.

It took nearly two hours for the two of them to reach the bottom of the cliff.

Many tree branches were bent and there were a few traces of blood, but Sterling’s figure was not

found.

Audrey breathed a sigh of relief.

It was somewhat better not to see his figure, at least he should still be alive!

Audrey and Eden discovered traces of broken branches along the way, as well as traps set by hunters.

“Eden, let’s continue along this road!”

The two of them walked out of Maple Mountain and continued on for a few miles. At the foot of another

mountain, they saw a bungalow.

Maple Mountain was desolate and uninhabited. with very few people

around. When they saw that bungalow, the two of them felt a glimmer of hope.

The owner of the bungalow was an elderly man in his sixties. Upon seeing Audrey and Eden, a hint of

caution appeared in his eyes as he asked, “Who are you?”



“Sir, have you seen a tall and thin, possibly injured young boy? He’s about the same height as me, but

much more handsome,” Eden asked.

“Who were you to him?”

“Classmate,” Audrey replied.

“He got injured, inside the house,” the old man opened the door and let the two people in.

Audrey guessed that Sterling was injured, but upon hearing the old man say this, her heart still

inevitably tightened.

She bit her lip and followed behind the old man, entering the house.

The room was very simple, and the bedroom was located on the east side of the main hall.

As Grandpa pushed open the bedroom door, Audrey froze for a moment as she looked inside the

room. Her hands, hanging by her side, suddenly clenched into fists, with the fingertips exerting such

force that it seemed they could tear through the skin of her palms.

Eden came from behind Audrey and saw the scene inside. He exclaimed, “Holy s hit!” and immediately

ran towards the boy on the bed.

“Sterling!!”

The handsome and aloof young man, pale-faced, lay on the bed with

his upper body exposed. A layer of gauze was wrapped around his chest, faintly revealing seeping

bloodstains. He closed his eyes, tightly pursing his pale lips, as if devoid of any vitality.
