Chapter 2043
Ableson followed the directions that Wayne had given him.
Stunned, he found himself near Fuller Manor, in a property that seemed to be uninhabited.
Wayne gave him a new number. Ableson dialed it, but it was disconnected.
He relayed this information to Wayne. Despite his efforts, he hadn’t found anyone, and the phone numbers he was
given were disconnected, but somehow Wayne was able to get through each time.
Wayne was furious. The boy kept calling, his voice growing weaker and weaker with each call.c2
Wayne didn’t have time to question it, so he left immediately. By the time Ableson received a call from Wayne,

He rushed over, and what he found was shocking.
Wayne was kneeling on the ground, seemingly administering CPR to someone, When he saw Ableson, he said, “Call
an ambulance, he’s lost a lot of blood, he needs immediate medical attention!”
There was no boy at all and that boy’s phone number was a vacant number!
Ableson had had his suspicions while he was in Norhaven, and this seemed to confirm them.
“President Silverman!!” Ableson ran forward, trying to pull Wayne up, “We need to find Mrs. Silverman, we need to
go find her now!” “Ableson, are you not listening to me? This boy is dying, he’s lost a lot of blood, I need you to call
an ambulance!” Wayne admonished. “There’s no boy!” Ableson shouted back, “President Silverman, snap out of it,

lying in a pool of blood, his face pale, looking at him with teary eyes.
“President Silverman!! You can’t be like this, you have to snap out of it, think about Mrs. Silverman, think about your
kids!!” Ableson gripped Wayne’s shoulders, speaking urgently.
He knew that in his boss’s heart, Secretary Tesdal and the two children were the most important. Perhaps only they
could bring him back to reality. Wayne looked at him, his expression blank for another two seconds: Then Ableson
saw clarity slowly return to Wayne’s eyes, and he let out a sigh of relief.

him towards the door.
But they hadn’t taken more than a few steps before Ableson felt a sharp, searing pain in his back.
Due to the pain, he instinctively let go of Wayne, barely managing to stay upright: When he looked up, his mind
went blank
Wayne’s hands were covered in blood, and behind him, there was a knife. He stood there, like a cold demon,
watching impassively as Ableson slowly fell Without a word, he picked up his cane from the ground, stepped over
Ableson as if he didn’t exist, and walked out
