Chapter 27

Aubree hadn’t been home for a week. The house stayed just as quiet as ever.

Only Bryan and Emery had gone to the school twice, trying to raise hell.

At home, as long as Carmen was around, no one even mentioned Aubree’s name.

Emery never thought the reason Bryan finally decided to go get Aubree back was to have her ghostwrite Carmen’s work.

When Bryan found out from his assistant that Aubree hadn’t reached out to him once, his first reaction wasn’t concern. He wasn’t worried something might’ve happened to her. No, he was pissed. How dare she?

Luckily, the police had shared some information. In the surveillance footage, Aubree could be seen heading to a park after being kicked out of the village housing.

Late at night, a Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the park for a while. After that, Aubree was always seen coming and going from school in a luxury car.
