“Noah has the same birthmark behind his ear. And he said his father’s name is Michael.”
Tyler went pale.

Before long, the police arrived. I explained everything, including Michael’s disappearance, the necklace, the birthmark, and Noah’s father’s name.
Noah wasn’t under arrest. He hadn’t done anything wrong. I was simply desperate for answers.

“At home,” Noah said.
My stomach dropped.
“Call him,” I whispered.
Noah took out his phone.
His father answered after three rings.
