The Everhardt Mansion

Karina, engaged in lively conversation with her grandfather and Aunt Zora, stepped into the mansion. As they entered, they were met with dim lighting, causing them to pause in surprise.

โ€œWhat happened to the power supply?" Zora inquired, scanning the surroundings.

Karina lowered her gaze with a smile just as the room burst into glittering lights, illuminating the beautifully decorated space.

Sir Lawson looked around in amazement. โ€œWho did thisโ€ฆ?โ€

"Surprise!โ€ Sophie's cheerful voice rang out as she emerged from a corner, eliciting gasps of astonishment from Zora and Sir Lawson.

โ€œMy dear child is here!" Sir Lawson exclaimed with joy as Zora rushed to embrace Sophie, lifting her up in her arms.

โ€œHello, Aunt Zora, Great Grandpa, are you guys thrilled to see me?โ€ Sophie beamed.

"Yes, darling,โ€ Zora replied, planting a kiss on Sophie's forehead.

"Our adorable one, I missed you,โ€ Sir Lawson chimed in, then turned to Karina, who wore a mischievous smile.

    The atmosphere was charged with a mixture of dread and desperate hope, a battle of wills playing out in the room.The men appeared, one of them carrying Sophie on his shoulder as she squirmed and cried. Karina called out desperately, "Sophie! Sophie!"Anita's expression turned concerned as she watched the scene unfold, her eyes flickering between Karina and Sophie. โ€œIโ€™m doing you the honors because Iโ€™m a mother too. Use this moment well and say goodbye properly to your daughter.โ€ She signaled to the man, who dropped Sophie down and the other went and untied Karina. The little girl ran to Karina, her face tear-streaked and trembling.โ€œMommy, I missed you,โ€ Sophie cried, trembling.Karina managed a smile through her tears, cuddling her daughter tightly.โ€œDonโ€™t worry, darling. Iโ€™m here. Nothing will happen to you.โ€ She scanned Sophieโ€™s face, then shot an angry look at Anita. โ€œWhy does my daughter look like this? What have you been doing to her?!โ€Anita shrugged nonchalantly. โ€œJust keep

    Karina watched with teary, weary eyes as Anita paced impatiently. Lucas stood nearby, his face a mask of frustration. Juliana returned, her face pale as she informed them that Lilly was ready.Lucas sneered at Anita. โ€œWhere are your men? They shouldโ€™ve been here by now.โ€โ€œTheyโ€™re coming. They should beโ€”โ€ She was cut off by a knock on the door.Anita took a step forward, but Lucas stopped her with a raised hand. He went to open the door and returned with two burly men in tow.โ€œWhat the heck kept you guys?โ€ Anita snapped.โ€œSorry, maโ€™am. Traffic was a nightmare,โ€ one of the men apologized.Anita hissed. โ€œFine. Lucas, theyโ€™ll go get Sophie now.โ€Lucas nodded, watching them head upstairs before turning his gaze back to Karina, who was sobbing and staring at him with a mix of sorrow and betrayal.โ€œLucas, I never thought you could do this to me,โ€ she choked out, her voice trembling with a mix of desperation and heartbreak.He leaned forward, feigning remorse. โ€œIโ€™m sorry, love. You know I ha

    Anita asked, tensed, โ€œWhat are we going to do?โ€โ€œTie her up!โ€ Lucas commanded. He dragged a chair and placed Karina on it, securing her tightly with ropes. โ€œWhere are your guys who are supposed to take Sophie to the facility?โ€ he grumbled.โ€œThey are on their way,โ€ Anita muttered, nervously glancing at Karina.Lilly appeared, her eyes widening in horror as she saw Karina, who was now bleeding from the head. โ€œMommy, what happened to Aunt Karina?โ€Lucas flicked his gaze at the girl, snarling, โ€œUgh, this girl. Take her to her room and get her ready, Mother!โ€Juliana quivered and walked to Lilly. โ€œLetโ€™s go, my dear,โ€ she said softly, leading Lilly upstairs as Lucas continued tying Karina to the chair.In the Everhardt mansion, Aidan walked into the house. โ€œWhereโ€™s Karina?โ€ he asked Gina.โ€œShe went to the office about 30 minutes ago,โ€ Gina replied.He nodded and turned to leave but stopped as Georgia walked in with some files in her hands. โ€œGeorgia, have you seen Karina?โ€ he quickly asked.

    Aidan and Karina arrived at the Everhardt mansion, the tension palpable between them. Aidan got out of his car and quickly walked up to her, his tone urgent. "Karina, I think we should inform Inspector Kai."Her eyes widened in surprise. "No. We shouldn't.""What? Why?" Aidan asked, bewildered."Lucas is no fool," Karina explained, her voice steady but tense. "He might have figured that I didn't just come to his family's house looking for him. I'm sure Anita told him already that she saw me at the hospital, and then he figured out that he messed up by lying to me twice."Aidan shook his head in frustration. "So, what are we going to do? Stay calm when Sophie's earring was lying in their house?"She sighed deeply, struggling to keep her composure. "Aidan, we shouldn't react impulsively. Lucas shouldn't think that I'm suspecting him."Aidan eyed her with concern. "Are you scared of him or what?""I'm just considering the odds and possibilities now. What ifโ€ฆ my daughter is in that house

    Karina answered it, faking her cheerful voice. "Hello, Lucas.""Hi, Karina. Uh, sorry but you can't see Anita or Lilly."Her brows creased. "What? Why?""They left the country. They went to Switzerland.""But you said we could have dinner with them, Lucas.""Yes, I had no idea they left. I just called my mom and she told me about it."She nodded. "So, when did they leave?""Last night, yeah."She nodded. "Okay. It's fine. Let's talk later." She ended the call and groaned. "He lied again."Aidan asked, "What happened?""I saw Anita and Lilly less than an hour ago, and he said they left last night," she concluded.Aidan's expression turned grim. "He's definitely hiding something, Karina.""I feel so too. I need to go over to his family's house.""I'm coming with you.""But you're going to stay outside and hide. Paraventure Lucas shows up, he shouldn't see you."He agreed, and they left. Aidan followed Karina's car as she drove to the Salvatore Mansion.When Karina arrived, she placed so
