Hurrying downstairs to the hotel lobby, Shane saw Silas holding Connor's hand and leading him into the hotel.

As soon as Connor spotted Shane, the former shook off Silas' hand and ran to Shane, choking out through sobs, “Daddy!”

Shane crouched down and hugged him while gently patting his head. “There, there. Don't cry.”

I know he's like this because he's worried about Natalie. I am too, but I have to remain calm. Otherwise, it'll only make it more difficult to find her.

After comforting Connor, Shane looked up at Silas. “Where's Sharon?”
