At this time, 24 hours had passed since Elaine had disappeared.
Therefore, Claire was very worried and nervous, started going in and out of the beauty salons that Elaine frequented.
She came to one of the beauty salons and asked the owner while showing virtual-novel.net Elaine’s photo, “Hi, have you seen this woman before?”
The owner looked at the photo curiously and asked, “Oh, isn’t this Mrs. Wilson?”
Claire was equally astonished. “Do you know my mother?”
The owner smiled and said, “Oh, so you are virtual-novel.net daughter. Well, virtual-novel.net used to be my regular here, but I haven’t seen virtual-novel.net lately. She used to come here with virtual-novel.net friends quite often. Why? Is virtual-novel.net missing?”
Claire nodded and asked, “Do you know any of virtual-novel.net friends? Can you give me their number please?”
The owner gaped as if something struck virtual-novel.net mind and blurted, “Hey, one of virtual-novel.net friends is doing facial right now. Why don’t I call virtual-novel.net out and ask?”
Claire quickly said, “That will be great! Thank you!”
The owner smiled. “You’re welcome, it’s my pleasure.”
The owner smiled gently. She picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “Lily, can you ask Mrs. Wayne to come out for a minute? Tell virtual-novel.net that Mrs. Wilson’s daughter is here, virtual-novel.net wants to ask virtual-novel.net something.”
A response came quickly, “Alright, Mrs. Wayne said she’ll go out now.”
Claire waited for a while and saw a chubby and burly woman walking out with a mask on virtual-novel.net face. Her face was a little too broad for the mask to cover the entirety of it, which made it somewhat hilarious.
However, Claire was not in the mood to laugh at other people. She was hoping desperately that virtual-novel.net could get some information and clues about virtual-novel.net mother from this woman.
Mrs. Wayne eyed Claire as virtual-novel.net walked up to virtual-novel.net and asked, “So, are you Elaine’s daughter?”
Claire stood upright and said respectfully, “Hi, Auntie Wayne, I am Elaine’s daughter. May I know if you’ve seen my mother since yesterday?”
“Your mother?! Huh!” Mrs. Wayne snorted a little angrily, “I don’t deserve a friend like your mom!”
Claire quickly asked, confused and curious, “Aunt Wayne, what do you mean by this? Did you have any conflicts with my mother?”
Mrs. Wayne pursed virtual-novel.net lips in dismay. “Oh, I don’t dare to have a conflict with her. Yesterday afternoon, I called virtual-novel.net up and asked if virtual-novel.net was interested to do a facial with me, and do you know what your mom said?”
“What is it? What did virtual-novel.net say?”
Mrs. Wayne chided furiously, “She said that I have no place to do facials with her, I don’t deserve to be virtual-novel.net friend! She even said that going to beauty salons to do facials is what people like us do. She wants to buy the entire salon that will serve only virtual-novel.net alone! She even wants to draw a line with us!”
Then, virtual-novel.net looked at Claire and asked, “Tell me, your mom is too much, isn’t she? We are all friends. I simply invited virtual-novel.net for a facial session together, but virtual-novel.net literally insulted and ridiculed me, virtual-novel.net even said that I am a poor freak and virtual-novel.net will have an enormous wealth unimaginable! What does it even mean? Does virtual-novel.net get rich all of a sudden? Is that why virtual-novel.net can look down upon us?!”
“If you despise me so much, just don’t take my call! Why do you have to insult me? Did I get on your nerves? Who are you to insult me? Oh my God, I’m so pissed!”
