Chapter 313

Grace only realized Theresa was missing after waking up from her lunch break, and it totally freaked her out.

"Theresa." She called out for her in a panic, but no one answered.

Frantically, Grace pushed open the bedroom door, calling Theresa's name as she searched everywhere, but there was no sign of her.

From Sophia's room to the living room, then to the kitchen, the washroom, and the balcony, she scoured every corner without a trace, and not a peep from Theresa.

Grace was so scared she nearly collapsed on the floor.

Shaking like a leaf, she whipped out her phone and pulled up the surveillance footage.

On the screen, she saw Theresa toddling out with her bottle bag in tow. But the footage only showed her lingering in front of the elevator before she vanished without a trace.

In a flurry, Grace dashed to the property management to get them to check the elevator surveillance.

When the property folks heard a kid was missing, they freaked out too and quickly fired up the elevator cam. But they found nothing.

They also called the on-duty security guards, but none of them had seen a little girl going out alone.

The property team got the security crew on a search mission around the complex and even blasted out a missing person alert in the residents' group chat, but no one spotted Theresa.
