On the phone was a live broadcast from the entrance

of the Olsen residence.

Madeleine’s mother had driven Keira into a corner!

Lewis was very anxious, so much so that when he heard the driver’s words, without a second thought, he

“A real-life version of The Farmer and the Viper story!”

“That’s not even the most important thing! Isn’t the most important thing about Mrs. Horton? She doesn’t say a word. Is she planning to play dead?”

The public’s accusations made Lewis press the accelerator furiously.

He knew these comments wouldn’t hurt Keira. Her mental resilience had always been strong, but even so, he didn’t want her to be hurt in the slightest.

He ran red lights and sped all the way.
