The man didn't answer directly but instead mocked her before hanging up the phone. "Your son has been missing for a night, and you didn't even notice. How careless of you." Missing for a night?

Yvette immediately thought of Noah. She quickly dialed his number.

At Dewberry Manor, Noah had just finished the breakfast the nanny had prepared when he finally received a call from Yvette. Curious, he asked, "Mom, did you find Mr. Xavier?" That single word, "Mom", caused Yvette's tightly wound nerves to relax instantly.
