The high-security prison area on Sub-Level 4 of Wright International looked like a secret underground bunker.

The walls were made of strong black steel. There were no windows, and the walls blocked out every sound.

Cold white lights built into the floor were the only source of light.

Avery walked down the long hallway. Her heels made sharp sounds against the metal floor.

She had left Nina upstairs in the penthouse under the protection of Ethan's best guards.

Ethan walked beside her.

    Avery stared at the message on Daniel's tablet.ASK YOUR MOTHER WHAT SHE DID ON OCTOBER 20.She read it again.Then she looked at Margaret.“Do you know what this means?”Margaret shook her head.“No. But I think you should speak to your mother.”Avery took out her phone.“I should have done that already.”Ethan touched her shoulder.“Let Daniel check the sender first.”“Whoever sent this knows something about my birth. They know about the children. I don't have time to wait.”“I understand,” Ethan said. “But I don't want you walking into another trap.”Avery looked at him.“Then stay beside me.”She called her mother.It rang several times before the call was answered.“Avery?”“Mom, I need to ask you something.”“Is something wrong?”Avery looked at the birth certificate.“What happened on October 20?”There was silence.“Why are you asking about that date?” her mother finally asked.Avery's stomach tightened.“Because someone just sent me a message telling me to ask you.”“Who sent

    “A birth certificate?”Avery stared at Margaret.“Why would my father give you my birth certificate?”Margaret lowered her eyes.“He didn't give it to me because he wanted me to know something about your birth. He gave it to me because he was afraid someone would change your identity.”Avery frowned.“Change my identity? What does that even mean?”“I don't know everything,” Margaret replied. “But your father told me that one day, you might need proof of who you were before Project Artemis.”Ethan moved closer.“Where is the envelope?”Margaret pointed to the small bag beside her chair.“Inside. I never opened it. I only remembered what was in it after reading your father's letter.”Daniel brought the envelope over.It was old and yellow around the edges. The seal had not been broken.Avery looked at Margaret.“Are you sure this is mine?”“Yes.”“Then why didn't you tell me earlier?”Margaret's face tightened.“Because I was afraid. Your father made me promise not to open it unless you

    "Don't make us take the other two."Avery read the message again.Her fingers tightened around the phone.Ethan was already speaking to the head of security."I want two guards outside the children's room. Nobody enters without my approval. Check every camera and every entrance. Now."He ended the call and turned toward Daniel."Find the sender.""I'm working on it.""Don't just trace the number. Check whether it came through any of our internal systems."Daniel nodded.Avery looked toward the staircase."I need to see my children."Ethan reached for her hand."Let's go."Nina was sitting on the bed when Avery entered.Leo stood beside her, holding a small toy car.Hope was on the other side of the room, drawing in her notebook.All three children looked up."Mom!" Nina called.Avery forced a smile."Hello, sweetheart."Nina noticed her expression."Are you crying?"Avery quickly wiped her face."No. I'm just tired."Leo walked toward her."Did something happen?"Avery knelt and opene

    "That little girl isn't the only child you lost."Victoria's words kept ringing in Avery's ears.She slowly lowered her phone.Ethan moved closer."What did she mean?"Avery shook her head."I don't know.""Did she say anything else?""She said finding Grace would destroy the only family the child had ever known."Ethan's expression hardened."She doesn't get to decide that."Avery looked at him."Then she said something else.""What?""That Grace isn't the only child I lost."The room went silent.Margaret sat forward."Could she have been talking about Hope?"Avery looked at her."Hope is alive. Nina and Leo are safe. Who else could she mean?"Nobody answered.Her mother slowly approached."Avery, there may be something we haven't considered."Avery turned."What?""After the fire, when you woke up, you kept asking for a baby. But you also asked about a little girl.""Hope?""I don't know. You kept saying there were two of them."Avery's heart began to beat faster."Two babies?"Her

    "Victoria?"Avery stared at the nurse."You're saying my aunt collected my baby?"Margaret Carter nodded."Yes."Avery turned toward her mother."Did you see her?"Her mother looked shaken."I went to the hospital that morning. I wanted to stop the transfer, but they wouldn't let me enter the children's ward."The nurse lowered her head."That was because we had already received instructions.""From whom?" Ethan asked."Dr. Reed."Avery stepped closer."What instructions?""Nobody was allowed to interfere with the child's release. We were told the transfer had been approved by the medical board.""Did you know I was the child's mother?""Yes. Your medical file showed the maternal link.""Then why did you let them take her?"The nurse's eyes filled with tears."I was afraid of losing my job. I had a sick husband and two children. Dr. Reed warned us that anyone who interfered would be reported for stealing medical property."Avery stared at her."Medical property?"The nurse nodded weak

    "That is your signature."Avery's voice was quiet, but the pain behind it was clear.Her mother stared at the screen."I don't remember signing that document."Avery folded her arms."Then explain how your signature ended up on it.""I can't.""You told me you never saw the baby again after Dr. Vale moved her.""I know what I told you.""But this says you collected her on December third."Her mother shook her head."I would never lie about something like that."Avery looked at the document again."Then maybe someone is lying for you."Ethan stepped closer."Daniel, can you check whether the signature is genuine?"Daniel enlarged the scanned document."I can compare it with other documents signed by her, but that won't tell us whether she personally signed this one.""Do it," Avery said.Daniel opened several old records.One was a medical authorization signed by her mother. Another was a property document from the Vance estate.He placed the signatures side by side.After a few moment
