Chapter 318 Seeking Information
The group shared knowing looks, fully aware of the serious turn of events.
In Sagrado’s posh mansion district, it was not easy for outsiders to get in.
Kate paused, determination flickering in her eyes, and said, “Getting into the mansion area isn’t easy for ordinary folks, so why don’t we just buy one?”
With her savings, Eric’s black card, and resources from Hendrick and the rest, purchasing a mansion was a piece of cake. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
However, Eric being in this exclusive area was a surprise and added a layer of complexity.
Whoever had taken Eric probably held a high rank in Sagrado.
No one objected to Kate’s plan. So, George quickly handled the purchase, wrapping up all formalities in under half a day.
Eric’s company maintains a branch in Sagrado, conducting business operations there and employing a considerable number of staff members in the area as well.
The group headed directly into the upscale mansion district by car, with Kate sitting next to Edward for the entire trip, her eyes locked on the small red dot on the laptop screen he held.
That red dot was Eric’s exact location, and they were steadily closing in on it.
Hang on, Ric!
Kate’s eyes were full of resolve. Looking out the window, she suddenly stopped cold.
Why did the outside scenery seem familiar to her? It was a strange, inexplicable sense of familiarity, almost as if she had been here before. Yet, Kate was sure she had never visited the elite mansion area in Sagrado before!
So, why did it feel so familiar?
She took a deep breath, trying to shake off the odd feeling.
The mansion district was vast, featuring meticulously landscaped gardens and tranquil artificial lakes.
As they neared the red dot on the screen indicating Eric’s location, Kate’s pulse quickened. She zeroed in on the mansion to the right.
Ric is in there…
Gripping her fists tightly. Kate realised her own mansion was right next door.

elite mansion district. It looked like they would need to figure out a way to gather more information to verify if Eric was indeed here and to assess his circumstances.
Eric had been out of contact for nearly twenty days, his status a mystery.
Once settled, Kate stood on the top floor of her mansion, looking over at the mansion next door.
Edward came up beside her, and as they both peered at the adjacent property, he asked calmly, “Now that we know Eric is right next door, what’s our next step?”
Kate looked surprised and raised her eyebrows when she heard his question. She had not expected Edward to ask her for the next steps, but without pausing, she responded, “Since we’ve just purchased this mansion, it’s only proper to offer some welcome gifts to our neighbours.”
Kate had already instructed George to get the welcome gifts ready.
This also provided her with a valid excuse to get closer to the neighbouring mansion.
George was quick on his feet.
Once he had everything arranged inside their mansion, he returned with the gifts he had bought
all high–end luxury items appropriate for the exclusive mansion district, a place inhabited by the affluent and distinguished.
Kate selected a few items, yet she was not in a hurry to leave.
She had not personally handled the mansion purchase, so she insisted on delivering the gifts herself this time.
However, she knew she could not go in her current state.
