Chapter 867 Keep An Eye On Xanthe
Josie clenched the photos. “Could they have kidnapped my father? They’re well-known thugs in Wavery. capable of anything.”
Scott gestured for her to stay calm. “What about the motive?”
He was right. There was no motive. Scar had no reason to do this.
Josie quickly recalled that after her father disappeared, she had gone to Arnold because she suspected Wyatt was loyal to him and had some involvement. However, she didn’t get far as Wyatt ended up hospitalized, and everything came to a halt.
Without Wyatt, Arnold’s motives for any wrongdoing became less obvious.
“What we know now is that once this van entered the surveillance blind spot, it might have switched packages. Thus, Paul didn’t disappear at this country club.”
Something suddenly occurred to Josie as she asked, “Have you investigated the owner of this club?”
Scott nodded. “Arnold has had his share of troubles lately, and the police chief advised against provoking him for now, at least until we progress further in the investigation. Ms. Olsen, do you recall might have missed? Any information could provide valuable leads.”
Josie sat quietly for a while, her mind churning with thoughts.
any details you
Pop and Arnold had no conflicts of interest. They didn’t even know each other. Assuming it was him, it must be related to Dexter and me. But why would they go to such lengths?
Josie couldn’t fathom it.
“If you can’t remember, it’s okay. We have someone closely monitoring Scar, and we’ll inform you if there are any leads, Scott said as he put away the photos. “We can’t approach Arnold directly. If you’re willing, you can try, but don’t alert him.”
Josie naturally understood.
After Scott left, she remained in her seat for a while before dialing a number. “Justin, can you help me check the visitor records for Wyatt Russell over the past three months?”
“Wyatt Russell? Who’s that?”
“From the Russell family”
Justin quickly caught on.
He found the information swiftly, but it was in the evening when he arrived at Josie’s house with the
results.
“There are not many visitors, and they are mostly relatives. Of course, Dexter’s name isn’t on the list.” Josie scoffed. Of course Dexter didn’t visit him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be in the hospital now.
She went through the list one by one. “Is he still in a coma?”
“Yes. The doctor said there’s a high probability he won’t regain consciousness.”

There were very few people who had visited him, all close to Wyatt, but as Josie scrutinized the list, she suddenly noticed a familiar name-Xanthe Quorn.
Josie narrowed her eyes. Why would Xanthe visit Wyau?
“I know this person. I’ve met her at Heaven on Earth before. She’s Dexter’s mother,” Justin said as he glanced at the list.
Yes, it had been a while since she had shown up.
“Even though she no longer has any ties with the Russell family, he is, after all, her former nephew. Given the gravity of the situation, it is normal for her to pay him a visit, right?”
Josie pursed her lips but didn’t think Xanthe was acting out of kindness.

She was a refined egoist who could even neglect her own son, let alone her nephew.
Ah. I nearly forgot she was cooperating with Yanis before he went to jail.
Josie tapped her finger on the list. Xanthe went to the hospital every month.
She couldn’t put her finger on it, but it struck her as odd.
If you can manage, keep an eye on her movements for me.”
Justin’s surprise became more evident, but he didn’t ask directly. “Are you facing some trouble?”
Josie didn’t know how to explain the story of Paul’s disappearance to him.
