章 44: Untangling the Knots

"A month ago, Ms. Green suddenly arrived at the villa with a group of men in black, injuring John and Mike, and even drove my husband and me out of the villa. I knew her arrival boded ill, so I swapped clothes with the janitor, Mrs. Zhang. She left with my husband, and I stealthily remained hidden in the villa."

Avery Miller watched her, her eyes reflecting the flickering of the flames.

"Sophie Martin ran to her, informed her about your school, and even led her to bring you here, to those homeless men..."

She trailed off, glancing aside at Avery.

Avery's gaze darkened instantly, a pain throbbing in her heart as if to tear her apart.

That day was nothing short of a nightmare!

It had since become a scar in her heart, a perpetual shame.

"So, I secretly took out the cellphone hidden in closet, keeping my husband informed and vigilant about the outside situation."
