The servant shook her head. "Ma'am, when we woke up this morning, Miss Claire was nowhere to be found."

Adah was devastated, as if all the strength had been drained from her body. She leaned weakly against the wall.

Ethan came out of the bedroom and immediately noticed Adah's desolate state. Concerned, he quickly asked, "Mom, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
