Zachary and Yvette were both taken to the hospital for a checkup after the entire fiasco.

Zachary was fine, but the same couldn't be said for Yvette's face.

"The wound on Ms. Snyder's face is quite severe. It will still likely leave a scar even if it heals," the doctor said after the checkup. "She'll need reconstructive surgery after this."

Yvette wasn't concerned about the injury on her face as long as Zachary was safe. She was more interested in finding out who exactly had kidnapped him.

The number that had called her was now out of service, leaving their lead cold.

Zachary had sketched a brief portrait of Derek out of memory. "He was working for someone else I heard him calling someone for instructions."

After a pause, he continued, "The person on the line seemed to want him to kill me, but he probably was reluctant to do so."

Yvette grew more fearful after hearing his words. She was determined to find out who the mastermind was.

Zachary felt heartbroken seeing how her right cheek was bandaged. "You must be feeling so much pain, Mom. Let me blow it for you, okay?" She used to blow on his finger whenever he accidentally cut it while prepping meals. Yvette lowered her head when she saw how understanding he was. "Okay."

Zachary gently blew on her cheek.
