Stella’s face twisted with ferocity and rage as she led the guards to the open lawn in front of the villa. They were searching frantically, their expressions grim.

Stella knew the security here was top–notch, the highest level in the Walton family’s secret bases. There was no way Claire could slip away

It was impossible and unacceptable. If Claire managed to escape and find Arthur, Stella couldn’t bear to think about the

consequences.

The island was swarming with bodyguards, just as Lydia had said.

They began a thorough, sweeping search, combing through every inch of the island.

Meanwhile, Ryan was leading Claire’through the overgrown path, using a small knife to clear the way. The dense underbrush was a hazard; one wrong step could lead to a painful injury.

But then Claire spotted something–or someone–and her voice trembled with excitement and relief. “Hank, Mommy’s here! It’s Hank, right? And Leo, I see you guys.”

The four people at the end of the path were just as surprised and relieved. They whispered back, “Claire, is that you? What a coincidence! We haven’t even started searching yet, and here you are.”
