Aurora shook off the bodyguards and headed straight to the first floor, where she hailed a taxi. "To the airport," she instructed.

"Yes, Miss," the driver replied.

Even Julian didn't know her whereabouts. She simply didn't believe that Mio had the power to read her mind. Finding out the truth wasn't difficult. It was simple-she had to confront Tina and get the answers. If Tina refused, Aurora was confident she had ways to make her talk.

Last night, she quietly booked a plane ticket without Julian knowing. The bodyguards waited two hours for her to come back down, but when she didn't, they called her.

The sound of her phone being turned off immediately signaled trouble. They searched the entire mall but couldn't find Aurora anywhere.

Panicked, they called Julian. Losing Aurora once had already been disastrous. Losing her again would spell their doom. Julian would surely skin them alive.

"Hello?" Julian's voice on the phone made them tremble.

"Mr. Barnet, Miss Montgomery turned off her phone," one of the bodyguards reported nervously.

"Turned off? Where are you?" Julian's tone shifted instantly, sharp and tense. The last thing he wanted was a repeat of the previous incident.

"Miss Montgomery said she wanted to go shopping. We were supposed to accompany her, but she said it was weird having us follow her in the mall and told us to wait in the car park. She said she had plans to meet Miss Barnet. After two hours, we called her, but her phone was already off."

"Did you search the mall?" Julian desperately wanted to believe it was just a dead phone battery.

"We searched everywhere. There's no sign of Miss Montgomery."
