Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 71

Georgia Lane recalled that Vanessa Cooke mentioned to her before. She was in a panic situation when she reported to the police.

Now Travis Armstrong was missing and police officers wanted to get a statement from her, so she was sweating nervously. 

“Officer, I have a friend and he went missing in the ward just now. He has some problems with his brain. He is a little bit retarded. I am afraid that he might be cheated by someone. Can I do the statement later? I want to look for him.”

Both of the officers looked at each other and they walked further away to have some words.

After a few minutes, one of the female officers walked towards her. 

“You can do the statement later and the reason we come here today actually is to have a better understanding in the case. Since your friend is missing, we can help you to look for him. How about you tell me about your friend’s identity and his missing time as well as his relationship with you?”

Georgia was surprised instantly.

The police officers were right here and she could seek help from them to look for Travis. Her heart was a little excited and Georgia immediately told them what had happened.

“Yes. I come back with the missing person together and I will provide more details to you all later. His name is Travis, ten years ago he suddenly went missing and became a beggar. He lives in D City and his birthday is...”

When Georgia was talking about Travis’s details, the female officer recorded down.

“Alright, I will help you look for this person. Ms Lane, since this person went missing in the hospital, I’ll accompany you to check the hospital’s security cameras first.”

With the help of the police officers, soon Georgia was able to negotiate with the hospital.

When checking the footage, Georgia discovered that Travis was wearing patient clothes when he walked out from the hospital and he seemed to be very worried. 

Georgia did not know whether Travis was finding her or something else had happened to him. Both of the officers asked further more about Travis’s current situation. 

After Georgia finishing saying her words, one of the male officer said to her. 

“According to my past experience, if your friend is in this condition, he isn’t completely foolish and he still can barely remember you. He is now either looking for you or going back to his own home. You said that he has been missing for ten years. Where is his previous home? Is the house still there?”

Georgia was stunned suddenly. 

After Travis had gone missing, Georgia went to the place where Travis and his grandmother used to live for countless times. 

Travis and her grandmother lived in a courtyard house and there were many people living inside there. Not long after that, Travis’s grandmother went missing too. 

For years, Georgia never went back to that place. Could it be Travis want to go back to his house?

Georgia immediately told everything she knew about Travis’s old house to the officers. Then, she followed both of the officers by car to Travis’s previous house. 

The officers helped Georgia to ask Travis’s former neighbours. Then only, Georgia knew that Travis’s grandmother had passed away in a car accident.

These people still remembered Travis but he had been missing for more than ten years and many of them still thought that he went to study abroad. 

Nobody knew that Travis had become a beggar during these ten years. 

Most importantly, none of the neighbours staying nearby saw a man who was wearing patient clothes came back here, no one saw Travis come back to the house.

This meant that Travis did not come here. 

However, when some of neighbours recalled their memories, one of them said something like this, it was from an old lady who lived here for many years. 

“After hearing what you said, actually, during these years, I often saw a beggar who was in a dirty look came to our courtyard house and walked back and forth in our neighbourhood. He wore clothes which were extremely dirty and often humiliated by a group of children. Now I start to think that he could be Travis? What has this child been going through? He used to be very excellent, how can he become like this...?”

The old lady was a bit emotional and even cried when she talked. 

Georgia remembered that this old lady was Travis’s neighbour and she talked several times with this old lady before. 

“That should be Travis and I don’t know either what has happened to him in these years. Mrs. Dawson, if Travis come back again, please contact me immediately.”

Georgia left her contact number for her. 

The time already reached noon, they still could not find Travis. Georgia already applied for leave from her research institute earlier. She also informed Vanessa about this incident. 

Vanessa also asked for Alfred Chow’s help but there was no any news regarding Travis. 

The female officer suddenly asked. 

“Besides his old house, are there any places that he likes or have good memories, I think maybe he will go to such places.”

As the officer saying the words, Georgia’s face instantly turned pale. 

“I think I know where he is.”

After saying the sentence, Georgia immediately gave the officers an address. The male officer drove the car and headed to the destination with Georgia as well as the female officer. 

She was going back to the Lane family. That was the place where they went back countless times by bicycle together. 

Just that, Georgia had not assumed this place as a home since six years ago. 

If Travis went out from the hospital to find her, then now he would definitely go to the Lane family.

So many time had passed, Georgia could not imagine what had happened to Travis. 

Owen Lane, Emma Lane and that Flora Wong hated him so much. What Georgia scared the most now was Lane’s family members bullied Travis.

After a half-hour drive, Georgia finally reached the place where she grew, her former home. 

Georgia still remembered that when she was small, her father and stepmother did not like her. Emma Lane and Eden Lane, her stepmother’s children, did not like her as well. 

She used to fawn on these people but they would only humiliate her. 

Then, Georgia gave up on fawning on those from the Lane family. She and Vanessa became best friends. 

At that period of time, she was alone most of the time except having an intimate relationship with Vanessa. 

Until she was in the high school, Georgia and Travis became desk mate. The relationship when they were young was so simple. Travis and she were each other’s first love which were the sincerest of all.

That time after school, Travis would ride a bicycle to fetch Georgia. 

Emma used to jealous of Georgia because Travis was the most handsome boy in the school. So, Emma would spread all sorts of bad rumors about Georgia in the school.

However, Travis believed Georgia firmly all the time and those were the most touched and simplest happy days for her.

After the college entrance exam, Travis suddenly disappeared. 

Emma used to ridicule Georgia for countless times saying that she was abandoned by Travis. Even Georgia herself used to suspect it too. 

However, after all, she only understood that Travis had been suffering during these ten years.

The Lane family was not a grand family but it still could survive in D City with a few companies and it could be considered as slightly wealthy. 

The house of the Lane family was a villa in the outskirts and the car could only reach outside of the residential area.

Not everyone was allowed to enter the residential area. 

But, both of the officers showed their credentials and they were allowed to drive the car into the residential area together with Georgia. 

After reaching the entrance of the Lane family, Georgia got off the car and looked everywhere for Travis.

Suddenly, she heard that there was a few jeer from the other side and Georgia looked to the direction of the sound. Her face immediately turned pale. 

In the garden in front of the house, Georgia saw that a few children were throwing stones at Travis and scolding him maliciously.

“He is an idiot, let’s make fun of him...”

“This idiot said that his name is Visvis. He is an adult already and doesn't he feel disgusting?”

There was a young man standing behind the children. There was a sneering look on his face and his eyes were filled with evil intentions.

“He is an idiot, what’s fun in hitting him? I’ll teach you all something more interesting way to have fun.”

Eden smiled and turned around to walk towards the dustbin besides him. He picked up a banana peel. 

The banana peel inside the dustbin was very dirty and even emitted a stinky smell. Eden walked slowly to Travis.

“Idiot, don’t you say that you are looking for Georgia? Come and eat it, I will bring you to Georgia.”

Without hesitation, Travis took the banana peel and ate it. 

The group of children was laughing. 

“Why is there someone as foolish as he? That is a banana peel.”

“He is an idiot obviously, let’s go to find other things in the dustbin to make fun of him!”

After saying, the children ran towards the dustbin to look for food. One of them even viciously picked up a diaper from the garbage heap.

The boy walked towards the direction of Travis evilly.

“Come, this is more delicious. Once you eat it, I guarantee that you can see your Georgia...”

The group of children was laughing and Travis was looking at them blankly because he only cared about Georgia.

He did not understand why so many people were laughing at him. 

But in order to find Georgia, Travis took over the diaper which already had been used from the child. On top of the diaper, it even had feces.

The moment when the diaper was taken out from the dustbin, a lot of mosquitoes were flying around it.

Everyone looked at Travis and wanted to see him eat the things on top of the diaper. So that, they could laugh at him. 

At that moment, Georgia ran towards him and she directly took away the banana peel and diaper from Travis’s hands. 

“These things aren’t edible!”

Georgia yelled. 

However, Georgia’s heart already felt extremely upset.

It was true that Travis came to her former house to look for her. To made her feel even worse, now everyone was bullying him. 

Those children were not thoughtful enough and Georgia could not say anything.

However, Eden, the son of her stepmother was standing behind the children.
