Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Molly left her hospitalized mother in the care of the ever-reliable Anya and took off.

When Chad arrived to visit his mother, he found Anya there. "Anya, where's your aunt?" he asked.

"She's gone to pick a fight," Anya replied nonchalantly.

Officer Chad: "..."

He glanced at his mother lying in the hospital bed, thought about Molly's fiery temperament, and muttered to himself, "Damn it! She's out of control again!" Without wasting a second, he rushed out of the hospital.

By the time Chad arrived at the Thompsons' house, it was pitch dark, and the front door had been ripped off its hinges.

Chad inspected the doorway. It was clear that the door had been violently removed.

Inside, the place was a wreck. The flat-screen TV lay shattered on the floor, glass from the door was scattered everywhere, and there were splashes of blood on the ground. Chad knew this kind of chaos all too well. If anyone could create such a mess, it was his sister.

It seemed this time, Molly was genuinely furious.

But strangely, no one was home.

Chad knocked on the door of the only neighbor to ask for information.

Despite his persistent knocking, no one answered.

"Open up, police," Chad called out.

After seeing Chad's badge through the peephole, the occupant cautiously opened the door a crack. Chad frowned, "Where are the people from across the street?"

The man, who lived there with his family, stuttered nervously, "I... we... we were out... I don't know." Chad could see this guy was scared out of his wits.

"If you don't cooperate with the police, you'll have to come down to the station with me," Chad warned. The man continued to deny any knowledge.

Chad took out his phone and showed the man a picture of Jade on his lock screen. "Have you seen her?" The man's eyes widened in fear. "No, I haven't seen her."
