To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 1176

Chapter 1176 Lynette Bell

Knowing what Mr. Ortiz was thinking, she smiled and said, "We don't have clues now. If we

attend dinners like this, we could at least get something. Go, Mr. Ortiz. Tell my dad

everything I’ve said. He will go.’

She knew Graham would agree to anything as long as he could find Lynette.

And she was right. After hearing the message conveyed by Mr. Ortiz, Graham agreed to

the idea without hesitation. Mr. Ortiz was visibly worried, but all he could do was arrange

for more bodyguards.

When night descended on Bayside City, crowds were swelling in its grandest five-star

luxury hotel. Those who attended the charity dinner were famous names in the city. They

mingled around with wine glasses in their hands. Those who watched from the outside

might mistakenly think of it as a meetup among close acquaintances.

The dinner was about to start when Jenny and Graham showed up. They located their

seats and sat down. Since they were at the event searching for clues, she kept a low

profile and picked a place in the back, where she started observing the guests in

attendance.

Barry Bell and Georgina Simpson were in attendance as well. They sat in the row before

Jenny, but they didn't notice the presence of Jenny and Graham. Just when Jenny thought

the dinner was starting, the door to the hall opened, accompanied by a flurry of activity.

"It's Eric Dafoe!" someone gasped.

"He even brought Lynette Bell to the event. The audacity!" another added.

Jenny and Graham were shocked to hear Lynette's name, and both turned to look at the

two guests. At the door, Eric had an arm around Lynette’s waist. Although both were no

longer youthful, they looked regal from afar. Complicated emotions gripped Jenny. The

woman for whom her dad was searching high and low effortlessly showed up before him

with another man. Worried for him, she turned to look at him. ’Dad, are you okay?"

Graham didn't answer. She looked closer and saw tears shimmering in his eyes. His

attention wasn't on the man with Lynette; he cared more about Lynette herself. Indeed,

anyone would be as agitated as him at a reunion after decades.

Lynette seemed to have sensed Graham's burning gaze. She wanted to turn around to

have a look, but Eric forcefully led her to the first row and sat her down. The couple didn't

notice Graham's presence, and Lynette kept her mouth sealed about her odd feelings just

now. Instead, she sat beside Eric with feelings of resentment and disgust for her partner.

The dinner started in no time. The items at the auction were all sponsored by the dinner

guests. Jenny sponsored an item in her collection-a ruby pendant left behind by Lynette

years ago- to look for her mom. To her disbelief, Lynette turned up at the event with a

man. The man seemed to be an Eric Dafoe from the whispers around her.

Jenny pulled out her phone and covertly texted Zack, asking for help to look into Eric

Dafoe, who appeared to be from an unusual social background. She knew she had to

proceed carefully from now on.

The auction continued. The items auctioned at the beginning did not attract Eric's

attention. His eyes were mainly on Lynette. When she expressed a liking toward any of the

items auctioned, he'd win the bidding to get it for her, and his biddings were generous.
