Mia had never felt such a profound sense of despair; Even when she was terrified by Maja's antics, what she felt was just fear. But

now, she was engulfed in hopelessness.

She longed to return to the Haskins household, and to her brother's protective embrace.

It was all Zoey's fault. It was because of Zoey that she had fallen prey to this vile man.

As he approached a staircase, his impatience was evident.

"Prepare a room for her and expedite the search. Bring Mia back within the day."

"Yes, sir."
