A mischievous spark flashed in Ethan’s striking eyes: “Auntie, can you build a castle?

Ethan wants to see a huge castle, this big…”

He gestured widely with his hands.

The young nanny’s heart melted at his antics.

“Alright.

Auntie will build you a castle right now.”

“Wait here. I saved a castle–building video earlier–I’ll follow it.”

The young nanny flipped through videos while learning.

Ethan watched her quietly.

Once she was lost in it, he slipped out the door behind her back.

Outside on the balcony, endless mountains and trees stretched before him.

Ethan frowned. “This isn’t how you keep a child–it’s how you lock up criminals.”

He hadn’t stood there long before feeling unwell.

Gritting his teeth, he moved to scout other areas.

Throughout his confinement, he’d searched for escape routes.

But security was impenetrable. Even if he evaded guards, his frail body wouldn’t make it a kilometer before collaps- ing–or worse.

After frantic searching, the nanny noticed Ethan’s absence and panicked.

“Steven? Steven, where are you?”

Trembling uncontrollably, she nearly jumped when Ethan entered with a glass of water.

“Auntie, tired?

Drink.”

Relief washed over her.
