Chapter 21
"Has Miss Irene been to the cemetery recently?"
After hearing a clear "no" on the other end, Hank hung up, his face clouded with frustration.
Margaret was Richard's ex-wife. Chloe was born from Richard's affair with Jennifer. To say Chloe had some close bond with Margaret? No one would buy it.
He dialed another number on his phone.
"Check who drove in and out of the cemetery during the time Chloe went missing. And find out who's been regularly visiting Margaret's grave these past years."
Mind still in chaos, Hank got back into his car, staring at the clearly scarred knuckles on his right hand before clenching it into a fist.

His fist slammed into the steering wheel. The horn blared sharply, disturbing the silence.
He floored the gas pedal. The chorus of horns from nearby cars only made his mood worse.
