Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 665 The Kidnapping of Parental Love

Carol's family had little money. When she got into Silver Bay Film Academy, her parents moved with her from their small town to Silver Bay City. They lived just 100 feet from the academy.

They sold their house back home. Luckily, Carol's dad, Rodolfo, found a teaching job nearby. Her mom, Lori, sold local veggies. They were always busy. Carol was a hardworking kid.

When she got into the academy, her high school celebrated for ages.

Rodolfo was strict, making Carol a bit timid.
