After that, Jenny headed straight toward the villa, marching as though she was on her way to a battle. Mr. Ortiz hurried after her. The last thing he wanted to see was Jenny getting herself in trouble after what had happened to Graham.
She knocked on the door. A pair of servants, one old and one young, answered the door fairly soon, and both frowned at the visitors. "Who are you? And what are you here for?"
It was common knowledge among the residents of Bayside City that this area was the territory of the Bells. No one would stir trouble there because that'd be courting death. Jenny and Mr. Ortiz didn't look like locals to the servants.
"I'm here to meet the head of the Bell family," Jenny announced.
The young man frowned and smirked. "Who do you think you are? How dare you demand to meet the head? You…"
"I am the daughter of Lynette Bell. Pass the message to him. Let's see if he will meet me or not," Jenny fired back boldly. She was confident that the Bells would be curious about her current life.
The man's expression crumbled upon hearing Lynette's name. Her name was like a banned word in the family, and no one was allowed to mention or gossip about her. For decades, Lynette Bell's name had disappeared from the family's collective consciousness. The young man was shocked to hear it mentioned again and from the mouth of Lynette's daughter at that.
He dared not make a decision, so he told Jenny that he would notify the family head before vanishing from the door. She was in no rush, and she hung out at the door.
"Miss Walter, do you think they'll meet you?" Mr. Ortiz asked anxiously.
She glanced at the door and said nonchalantly, "They probably will. Aren't they curious about me after all the years?"
Indeed, the Bells were curious about Lynette's daughter. They weren't expecting her to be alive. After all, they received news from Bardoff City years ago that the girl was dead. Not only was the daughter alive, she even traveled all the way to their residence. Was she here to demand justice for her mother? But Lynette was no longer with the Bells. So, what did she want from them?
"Mr. and Mrs. Bell," Jenny addressed them in a polite but distant manner. The old couple exchanged a look. Georgina was slightly shocked upon seeing Jenny's face, for the granddaughter bore an uncanny resemblance to Lynette. For a moment, she thought she was staring at a young Lynette.
Barry held the same opinion, but instead of being engrossed, he asked coldly, "What brings you to the Bell family?"
"I'd like to ask you, Mr. Bell, about the whereabouts of my dad," Jenny explained her purpose of visit without beating around the bush.
Hearing that, Barry and Georgina looked confused, but they soon snickered at her. "You're here to ask about your dad? That's ridiculous!"
"Is it? I don't think so," Jenny replied as she fixed her eyes on Barry. "My dad has recently been looking for my mom, Lynette. Just when he's close to getting a clue, he vanishes all of a sudden. Mr. Bell, what do you think? Who would have taken him?"
