Thalia's heart was hanging in suspense. She wished she could teleport to where her father was being held the next second.
The faces of the officers showed excitement as they gradually got a lead on the investigation. Thalia's heart started settling down; this meant they had the upper hand. All that was left was to quickly find the kidnappers' hiding place and bring her father back! She had not even considered Claudia. She even darkly thought that it would be better if Claudia died in this kidnapping. Then, no one would cbetween her and her father's affection for the rest of her life. 'Claudia, oh Claudia, this isn'tcursing you. It's all retribution for stealing Lucas away from me! If you had cared abouteven a little, you would've stayed away from him!' thought Thalia.

'Although she says that she won't date around and that studying is the most important thing, she secretly clings to Lucas tightly!' thought Thalia.
Thalia was clearly the one who liked Lucas first, yet Claudia wanted to take him away. Since Claudia did not care about her feelings, why should she bother to pretend to care about Claudia anymore? 'I hope Claudia dies there so that I'll never have to see her again!' Just thinking about Claudia's miserable end made Thalia smile sinisterly.
The teacher who had been accompanying her was about to ask if she was okay but was frightened by her expression.
"You..." However, when Thalia turned around again, she reverted back to that pitiful look, so the teacher justchalked it down to her seeing things wrongly.
"Miss, what's wrong?" asked Thalia.

I'm not thirsty." 'She didn't even want to drink water. It seems this child is really worried about her sister and father,' thought the teacher.
"Don't worry. We have to trust the police. They've already identified the suspects. I believe they will soon rescue your sister and fatheroso there's no need to worry so much." Thalia still kept her head down, preventing the teacher from seeing the expression in her eyes.
'I've never worried about that b*tch. It would be better if that b*tch died,' thought Thalia.
The gang of kidnappers drank until late into the night, with only two of them still somewhat sober.
"You two..go keep watch over the three of them. I warn you-" Stanm hiccupped, looking like he could barely stand, while Henry silently took note of everything. "Don't worry, Boss. I'll keep an eye on them for sure."
"Hiccup! When the next call comes, we'll squeeze them hard for smoney-hiccup!-So that we can live the good life from now on!"
