The confrontation at the tavern had been intense, Mommy My children gripped my hands rightly, their small faces looking up as with concern.

I forced a smile, knowing it probably looked "Mommy's okay. We're sale now.

I gazed out the window at the rapidly disappearing village, my chest fight with the fear for for the man I'd left behind.

Thomas's phone rang, breaking the tense silence. He e answered immediately.

"Hello, yes, we've recovered Mrs. Wilson. She's the car now." "Who is it?" I asked, suddenly alert.

Thomas passed the phone back to me. "Mrs. Wilson, it's your friend Sophie.

"Sophie!" "Angela!!" Sophie's voice was even more emotional than mine. "Sean finally found you! I'm so sorry-we ran into trouble while searching for you and completely missed nur chance to help. Thank goodness Sean located you." Relief washed through me. "You were looking fortoo?" "Of course! As soun i got your call, I, I contacted Sean. We've been working together to find you since then.

After ending the call, I turned to Thomas. "How d r did you me? Thomas tucked away his phone and explained quietly, "Sophie has been providing us with updates. After receiving information about your call from the village inn, we rushed over immediately. When we arrived, we didn't know your exact location, båt Sophie continued to supply leads." "I see." I nudiled, understanding now how w the rescue had ctogether.

Because Sean hadn't answered my phone call, I hadn't tried to contact him again.

I had even thought, perhaps he wouldn't clooking forafter all. Or maybe, I wasn't as important to him as he claimed.

It seemed i had misunderstood him completely.

Night had fallen by the twe reached our destination-a luxurious European estate that Thomas identified as one of the Shaw Tamilys sale houses.

As we settled into Sean's private suite, I couldn't help asking, "When do you expect him.

"That..." Thomas shook his head. "I'm not certain. He'll return once is finished dealing with Christopher." "He hasn't contacted you?" I couldn 1 keep the worry hom my voice) Mrs. Wilson, you've been withthe entire journey. My phone only rang once- Sophie's call, I, as you knew.

I nodded, then said to Thomas, "The most urgent thing now is to hay Aria's ankle examined. She's injured " Within the hour, a private doctor arrived at our suite to examine luc "The little girl will be fine. It's just a sprained ankle. I've prescribed anti-inflammatory medication and painkillers. She should rest for a few days and avoid walking," the private doctor explained.

I thanked him, and after he left, I carried Aria back to bed, gently admonishing, "Next tyou're hurt, you must tell Mommy right away. You can't just tough it out, understand?" Having learned her lesson, my daughter nodded obediently. I know, Mommy." I smoothed her hair back from h her forehead, trying to hide the trembling in my fingers.

During dinner, Aria looked around the elegant dining room before asking, "Mommy, why isn't Mr. Night with us? Where did he go?" That question...

I wished I knew the answer myself. We'd been here for hours now, plus travel time, and still no word from Sean.

I was deeply worried but couldn't show it in front of the children lead, 1 stroked Aria's hair and explained softly, "Mr. Night had sbusiness to take care of. Just go to sleep tonight, and when you wake up tomorrow, you'll see him, okay?"

"Mrs. Wilson, you're welcto walk around, but please don't leave the building. Mr. Shaw hasn't returned yet, which means the situation remains unresolved. Until he returns, it would be best if you stayed in your room or within our surveillance area." If I'd heard similar words from Christopher's staff, I would have interpreted them as an attempt to imprison me.

But coming from Sean's people, it felt like genuine protection.

The realization gavepause. Had I been unfair to Christopher? Then again, if he hadn't imprisonedin the first place, our relationship wouldn't have deteriorated to this point.

As midnight approached, I requested to speak with Thomas again. Security immediately contacted him, and he arrived at my Jude moments later.

"Any news about him? My My first questi question was still about Sean.

Hearing my words, Thomas sighed and shook his head slightly.

2/3 Chapter 208: Waiting in Darkness "Nothing yet, Mrs Wilson. It's getting late-perhaps you should rest. I there's any news, I'll notify you immediately.

"I know this sounds impolite, but I have to ask-with so many people here, couldn't sbe sent to help him? I couldn't keep the desperation from my voice. Thomas shook his head regretfully. "Mrs. Wilson, don't you think I've considered that? But Mr. Shaw wouldn't allow it. He insisted that everyone, including myself, remain here to ensure your safety.'
