Chapter 473: "But my grandfather suffers from Alzheimer's, and now he's missing. I don't know where he is. I heard he might be in Halstead, so I rushed here, but there's been no sign of him. I'm not sure if I'll ever find him." Kallie's voice faltered slightly, and she felt a tightness in her throat as she spoke. Fighting back her tears, Kallie added, "You've got your grandma nearby. She loves you deeply. It's all going to be alright." Ruth gave Kallie a worried glance. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “I'd rather not bring her up, but if you're looking to find a lost elderly person, she might just be able to help." Then, Ruth went on to introduce Jenny to Kallie. Since starting college, Jenny had dedicated herself to charitable work, rescuing many children and the elderly. As a result, practically no homeless seniors or children could be found in Halstead.
If Kallie's grandfather ended up in Halstead and bechomeless, chances were he'd encounter Jenny. Kallie recalled hearing that Jenny had adopted homeless elderly people.
Confused, Kallie questioned, "But if she found a lost elderly person, not just a homeless one, shouldn't she have taken them to the police?" Upon arriving in Halstead, Kallie had immediately checked with the local police station. However, they had no record of an old man fitting Tyrone's description. Clearly, nobody had brought him in.

However, the elderly people she has taken under her care should be secure for the tbeing. After all, the media was scheduled to interview them; they typically faced the media about once every month." Upon hearing this, Kallie's expression turned to one of concern, and she hurriedly pulled out her phone to do a search.
Lotist chiptors in galSure enough, Kallie cacross a news article about Jenny. The article featured photographs from last month, showing Jenny alongside the elderly and children she had been caring for.
Kallie's eyes immediately picked out a figure that seemed familiar to her. However, the crowd was too dense to capture a complete image. The figure she recognized was only shown from the waist up, and the face remained unseen.
Kallie couldn't tell if it was just her intuition, but she was convinced that this was the person she had been searching for.
With a tight grip on her phone, Kallie resolved to visit Jenny's charity stuthe following day to hopefully learn more.
The next morning, Kallie set out and made her way directly to Jenny's charity studio. When Jenny heard the news and arrived to see Kallie, a hint of bitterness flickered in her eyes, but she swiftly composed herself. “Miss Nixon, welcome." Facing Jenny, Kallie didn't beat around the bush.
"Miss Patterson," Kallie said, extending her hand with a warm, genuine smile, as though the past had never cast a shadow between them.
"I have heard wonderful things about your charitable work. A friend of mine has an elderly relative who has recently gone missing in Halstead.

May I cby and take a look around? Please understand, it's not I m that I doubt you. It's just that my e friend's relative suffers from dementia, which makes it difficult for him to recall his whereabouts or how to find his way back."
Jenny's eyes flickered for a moment before settling back into their usual calmness. She yawned and then curled her lips into a sneer Kalliè, nto a we've had our differences in the past.
There is no need for pretense now. I know what you are up to. You are just looking for reasons to criticize me, hoping to stir up rumors aboutmistreating the elderly and children. Save your breath. People like you, full of hypocrisy, aren't welchere."
Kallie had anticipated Jenny's refusal, so she remained calm andcomposed. She gestured behind her with a subtle but deliberate movement. Several vehicles were lined up along the road outside.
