Ace Storm stopped at the entrance of his parent’s room with furrowed brows, watching as his parents’ things were hauled away by the servant.

That could only mean one thing, they were traveling which was impossible. Today was supposed to be for him.

Zara Storm got off a call right at that moment.

"What are you talking about?" She asked him.

"Where are you going?" Ace asked even though he already had an inkling. He felt this churning feeling in the pit of his stomach.
