Dad, Mom, Brother... Kinsey cried and called out their names.

She was sorry for them. She was the one who got them killed. Everything was her fault....

No! A strong sense of hate appeared in her eyes. It was not her fault. Isai was the person who should be blamed the most!

She had to avenge her family!

She had to live!

Three days later, Stanley received a strange phone call. He glanced at the caller ID and answered, "Hello."

"Stanley, I... promise you."

The person on the other end of the line was Kinsey.

"Oh?" Stanley raised his eyebrows. "Didn't you say that would disagree last time? How come you have a change of heart?"

"Because I have already found out where Isai hid his evidence."

Stanley immediately pressed the recording key. "How would you like to cooperate?"

"Come rescue me from him. I'll tell you his secret."

"Yes, it can be done."

"He... there is a bookcase in his study, where there's a door behind the cabinet. I saw him put some documents in. What you want should be in there."

Upon hearing this, Stanley was slightly surprised. He couldn't seem to find them anywhere. Was it because there was a secret door? Immediately, he relaid this information to the middle-aged man. After a while, the middle-aged man called and asked directly, "Is it true?"

"It shouldn't be wrong."

"That's good. I'll think of a way to solve this problem."

"What are you going to do?"

The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, "First, find someone to check it out. If there really is a secret door in his residence, then there must be something hidden inside. As long as there is evidence, I will immediately take action."

Upon hearing this, Stanley was apathetic. "Please take action as soon as possible. If you wait any longer, I'm afraid that there will be some changes."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Of course, I know that."

Stanley was just about to speak when a notification came from the other end of the line. He cleared his throat and said, "I won't disturb you any further. Right now, you have a very important matter to attend to." Isai was the most pressing issue that the middle-aged man needed to do right now.

Hanging up the phone, Stanley frowned and looked at the caller ID on the screen. It was a series of unfamiliar numbers, and according to the country codes, it was not a domestic number.

He subconsciously felt that this phone might be called by the person he wanted to see the most. His body went stiff, and when he picked up the phone, his voice trembled. "Hello..."

A desperate voice came from the other end of the phone, "Stanley, come and save me!"

"Beep beep beep..."

Then, the line was cut.

Stanley's body swayed, almost falling over because he was unsteady. He was both excited and ecstatic, and his heart was pounding.

In Tasnil.

Three days had passed since Shawn was admitted into the hospital, but there was still no news from Sharon. For the past three days, Mario had been here to keep her company, and she did not return home a night.

It was more of an initiative by Shawn to prevent Sharon from escaping, rather than an accompaniment.

Sitting in a wheelchair, Sharon was lost in her thoughts as she looked out of the window. The country looked particularly brightly colored. The sky was blue, and the clouds were white. As long as someone looked up, they were able to admire the beautiful scenery. This would definitely improve one's mood.

Mario came over to invite her for dinner, but Sharon didn't have much of an appetite. She looked at this half-grown child and suddenly smiled, "Won't your family be worried since you have not returned home these few days?" Mario shook his head "Don't worry. Before I came, I've already informed them I'll be staying a few more days."

"Won't you be bored taking care of a disabled person?"

"Miss Cruz, don't say that."

"Mm, you're not bored, but I'm very bored." Sharon looked out of the window and sighed. "I'm thinking that this is my entire life. I can't go anywhere if I'm locked up in this small room. It's impossible to even go out for some fresh air."

Mario looked at her with a troubled expression. "Miss Cruz, it's not that I won't allow you to go out, but it's because Shawn has instructed that neither of us can leave the house before he returns."

"Mm. I understand. I don't blame you." Sharon smiled. "Look outside. Those kids are so cute. They run barefoot. Aren't they afraid of being burnt?"

"The weather isn't hot right now, so they're not afraid."

"Then why didn't they wear shoes?"

"Some of them come from poor families and can't afford shoes; some children are used to barefooting and don't want to wear them."

"Oh," Sharon responded, but suddenly began to shed tears. Mario was shocked. "Miss Cruz, what's wrong?"

Sharon sniffled. "Nothing. It's just that when I see such a cute bunch of children, I suddenly miss my two children so much. They're very cute."

Mario was shocked. "You have children?" "Heh heh, can't tell, right? I look very young, right?"

The youth's face turned red. "Yes."

Sharon looked out the window with yearning. She seemed calm while laying down on the windowsill, watching the kids outside while talking to Mario about her two children. "They're only three years old. I don't know how they are doing right now. I've never left them for such a long time. They must hate me to death. They must be complaining in their hearts why their mother wants to leave them."

Sharon talked a lot. When she talked about something sad, she shed tears; when it was something happy, she smiled wholeheartedly.

Mario was affected by her emotions. When she finished speaking, he could not help but blurted out, "Miss Cruz, if you really want to go out and play with the children, I can take you out." Sharon's eyes brighten. "Really?"

"But you have to promise that it won't be more than ten minutes."

"I promise!"

"Then, let's go out for a walk."

"Thank you, Mario."

Mario gave her a set of clothes. "I see that you seem to really miss your child, that's why I'm doing this. When Shawn comes back, you have to keep this a secret."

"Of course!"

Mario brought Sharon out, but he did not see that intense emotion in her eyes.

Sharon felt sorry for Mario. She wanted to go home so much to her children and Stanley, so she had to take advantage of Mario's sympathy to find a chance to escape.

She wanted to take the opportunity to make a phone call.

For more than two months, Shawn had isolated her up here in a house that had nothing. There was no phone, no landline, and no computer. Other than a TV, she didn't have anything else that allowed her to get in touch with the outside world.

Mario didn't have a phone on him either, so she couldn't get in touch with anyone else either.

The only way to get in touch with Stanley was for her to take the initiative to contact him and tell him where she was.

These two months, Stanley, had never been able to find her, and Sharon had also given up on finding him day after day. This world was

so vast that if he wanted to find someone, even if he had the ability to reach the heavens, it would still be impossible for him to do so easily.
