MEMORY RESTORATION HAS BEGUN.

Avery stared at the words on Daniel's laptop.

Nobody had touched the keyboard.

Nobody had entered a password.

Yet the system had accepted her creator code and started a process connected to her missing memories.

“Shut it down,” Ethan ordered.

Daniel's fingers flew across the keyboard.

“I'm trying. The connection isn't coming from our network.”

“Then cut the power.”

“I can disconnect this laptop, but that won't stop the process running inside Northbridge.”

    "Call Margaret."Avery's voice was cold.Ethan looked at her."Do you want to speak to her now?""Yes."He picked up his phone and dialed.Margaret answered after several rings."Ethan? Is everything all right?""We need you at the estate.""What's happened?""It's about Project Artemis."There was silence.Then Margaret asked quietly, "Is Avery there?""Yes.""I'll come."The call ended.Avery stared at the document on the laptop.She had spent years searching for answers, but every answer seemed to lead to someone who had hidden something from her.Now Margaret's signature was attached to an instruction that could explain what happened to one of the missing children.Avery didn't know whether to feel angry or afraid.Margaret arrived forty minutes later.She entered the study and immediately noticed the serious expressions on their faces."What's going on?"Avery turned the laptop toward her."Do you recognize this?"Margaret looked at the screen.Her face changed.For several secon

    Ethan arrived at the study less than ten minutes after Avery called him.He was still wearing his night clothes, but his expression was fully awake."Show me the record."Avery turned the laptop toward him.Ethan read the recovered document carefully.DESTINATION: WRIGHT MEDICAL NETWORK.His jaw tightened."Which facility?""Daniel hasn't recovered that part yet.""Then we find it."Avery watched him."Did your father ever tell you about children being transferred through your family's medical network?""No.""Did he tell you anything about Project Artemis being connected to your hospitals?"Ethan shook his head."My father funded several medical projects. He controlled the equipment, the research facilities, and some of the private hospitals. But I never knew about these transfers."Avery folded her arms."Your father also claimed he didn't know about the CR-004 transfer.""I remember.""And his account approved it."Ethan's expression hardened."I know what you're thinking.""Then t

    Avery had just finished reviewing the police report when Daniel rushed into her study."There's a problem."She immediately looked up."What happened?"Daniel placed his laptop on the desk."The financial department found something else in the AV-000-B account."Avery closed the report."What?""The three payments Jasper mentioned weren't the only ones. There's a fourth payment."Her eyes narrowed."When was it made?""December 3."Avery went still."That's the day CR-003 was released to Victoria.""Exactly."Daniel opened the payment record.The amount was smaller than the previous transfers, but the description caught Avery's attention.AV-000-B — FINAL GUARDIAN SETTLEMENT.Avery read it twice."Who received the money?""Northbridge Recovery.""Who approved it?""Victoria Vance."Avery leaned back."Again?""Yes.""Was there a receiving guardian listed?"Daniel shook his head."No. But there's a reference number attached to the payment."He enlarged the screen.GUARDIAN FILE: G-003-

    Avery was halfway through breakfast when Hope dropped her spoon.The sound was small, but everyone at the table turned toward her."Sorry," Hope whispered.Nina quickly picked up the spoon."It's okay. I drop things too."Hope nodded, but she didn't reach for the spoon.Avery noticed her fingers twisting together beneath the table."Are you feeling unwell?"Hope shook her head."Did you sleep well?"Another shake.Avery exchanged a glance with Ethan."Would you like to talk about something?"Hope looked at the others before speaking."Can I ask a question?""Of course," Avery replied."If someone finds their real family, does that mean they have to leave the people who took care of them?"The table went quiet.Nina stopped eating.Leo looked at Hope.Avery gently put down her glass."No, sweetheart. It doesn't mean that.""But what if their family wants them back?""Then the adults will talk about what is best for the child."Hope's voice became smaller."What if the child doesn't kno

    Avery woke up before sunrise.She had barely slept.Every time she closed her eyes, she imagined her mother sitting somewhere, waiting for someone to open a door.She imagined her mother calling her name.She imagined arriving too late.Avery sat up and rubbed her face.Beside her, Ethan opened his eyes."You're awake again.""I didn't mean to wake you.""You didn't."He reached for her hand."Another nightmare?"Avery shook her head."Not exactly.""Then what is it?""I'm tired of waiting, Ethan."He sat up."I know.""No, I don't think you do." Her voice broke slightly. "Every day, I wake up hoping someone will call and tell me she's safe. Every day, I check my phone. Every day, I imagine what she's going through."Ethan listened without interrupting."What if she's hurt?" Avery continued. "What if she's being forced to tell them something? What if she thinks we've abandoned her?""Your mother knows you're looking for her.""How can you be sure?""Because I know you won't stop."Ave

    Avery had promised herself that her children would not pay the price for the secrets she was trying to uncover.But keeping that promise was harder than she expected.She stood outside Nina's bedroom, holding a small tray of breakfast. Nina was sitting on her bed, staring at her schoolbooks without reading a single word."Are you planning to study all day?" Avery asked.Nina looked up."Not really.""Then why are you staring at the same page?""I'm thinking."Avery placed the tray on the bedside table and sat beside her."About what?"Nina played with the edge of her blanket."Will Grandma come back?"Avery's smile faded slightly."We're doing everything we can to find her.""That's what you said yesterday.""I know.""And the day before."Avery lowered her eyes.She had no answer that could make the waiting easier.Nina looked at her."Are you scared too?"Avery reached for her hand."Yes. I am.""Then why do you keep telling us not to be scared?""Because being scared doesn't mean w
