Chapter 185

Nathan walked out of the small apartment with a gloomy expression. A cold and chilling gush of air was
felt when he walked past Cole and Gilbert.
The two had never seen him with such a desolate demeanor before. They thought they’d freeze to
death

behind him and didn’t even dare to breathe audibly.
They obediently followed him downstairs, and after getting in the car, they drove away.
In the backseat of the car, Nathan’s expression grew colder every passing minute. He leaned against
the seat and shut his eyes without saying a word.
The atmosphere within the car became oppressive and icy— it was suffocating.
The sound of a ringing phone cut through the silence.
Cole felt like his phone was a hot coal in his pocket. Hastily, he fished it out of his pocket and answered
the call for fear of disturbing Nathan at the back.
A while later, he hung up and turned toward Nathan
hesitantly.
He wanted to make a report, but he was also afraid of provoking Nathan. After being conflicted for quite
a bit of time, he asked timidly, “General Morrison, they finished looking into Ms. Hoffis. Would you like
the report now?”
“Speak,” he replied steely and curtly.
“Sunterland doesn’t support dual international identities, General, so Sally Hoffis no longer exists. The.
with such a name in Norvania.”

Nathan abruptly opened his eyes. His gaze was dull, but his tone grew heavier. “Sally changed
nationalities?”
Cole nodded. “Yes, she’s not Norvanian, and she’s not
called Sally Hoffis either. Her name in Sunterland is Wanda
Hoffis.”
The man’s expression soured. “Continue.”
Cole followed with a detailed report.
“Wanda Hoffis was admitted into Sunterland’s most
famous school at the age of 14. However, she didn’t live on campus and rarely showed up there. Barely
anyone in her
batch knew about her.
“But she always placed first in her exams for all her subjects. She’d receive numerous awards. She
even
published five academic papers when she was in university,
all of which were published by the most internationally
renowned academic journals.
“She graduated smoothly but was too busy to even attend her graduation ceremony. She’s the talk of
the entire school.
“After graduating from university at the age of 18, she was
assigned to work at a research center. Her work was
extremely confidential. She only had 60 days
per year.”
“Sally’s parents and uncle didn’t know about the particulars of her job or its location. They could only
meet during her off days. They weren’t allowed to contact or see her otherwise,” he explained.
“Three years ago, a month before she returned to Norvanía,
their family of three often appeared together when they made video calls to her grandparents.
“Afterward, her parents passed away. We only found death
certificates and two graves. There was no record of
cremation.”
Cole continued, “Since then, Mr. Hoffis Senior brought her back to Norvania. She’s been living here as
Sally Hoffis, but
she’s never participated in any work.”
Nathan furrowed his brow, lost in thought.
She changed nationalities? Sally Hoffis doesn’t exist
anymore?
The situation was becoming increasingly puzzling. Nathan fell silent for a moment before he spoke
again. “Is it
possible to get a video recording of their calls?” His tone grew more serious.
Cole replied, “We’ve already had software engineers hack into Mr. Hoffis Senior’s phone and computer
neral. There were no copies or recordings of their video calls.”
He fell silent again.
Lucas, who was driving, realized something was amiss.
“General, do you suspect that the current Sally Hoffis isn’t who she says she is?”
