Cordelia was taken aback, looking at Linda silently. "Hmm... Is there something unusual about her?"Linda pondered for a moment. "She's not close to me, or rather, she's overly polite toward me and Nic. Initially, I thought she was just having difficulty adjusting to our home. But later, I saw her chatting and laughing with Toph when she arrived home, and she instantly became guarded when she saw us... I don't understand this child."Linda let out a sigh. Lately, she had been troubled by this situation. "Cordelia, I've tried many approaches, even humbling myself to please her... But why does she keep her distance? She's my daughter! I didn't abandon her willingly. If I could turn back time, I would trade my life for her safety...""Calm down, Linda." Cordelia quickly grasped her hands.Linda's hands were cold and trembling. She couldn't control her emotions when discussing this.Cordelia recalled the moment Linda collapsed when Pammy went missing.As a mother, she understood the

Linda found herself walking on an endless road, surrounded by darkness on both sides. As she searched for the only source of light, she heard the sound of ocean waves and faint calls of "Mommy, mommy..."Her heart raced as she caught sight of a little girl running toward her with open arms, resembling a bird in flight. "Pammy!" she cried out, rushing forward. But as she reached out, she stepped into emptiness and let out a scream.Linda abruptly woke up, realizing she was in her own bed at home. Their family doctors and a teary-eyed Nicholas surrounded her, holding her hands tightly.Struggling to speak, she managed to call out to him, "Nic...""I know." He choked. "Zen told me everything."Linda's eyes filled with sadness and resentment. "We won't... forgive him!""I know." He nodded. "Don't worry. I'll handle it.""Where's our daughter?"Before Nicholas could respond, there was a soft knock on the door, and Renee entered the room.Their expressions changed upon seeing her, b

Two days later, the authorities apprehended Melvin immediately after receiving the report. Unfortunately, the past two days had been filled with misery for everyone involved.The police discovered the Thompsons' nearly wrecked car near the beach, and the driver was gravely injured, ultimately succumbing to his injuries on the way to the hospital.Nicholas had diligently checked the surveillance footage in various locations but could not locate Lina and Renee. Even the person responsible for taking them had vanished, leaving all fingers pointing at Melvin.Through their connections, Zuko and Toph managed to gain access to the interrogation room where Melvin was held.Upon seeing them, Melvin displayed a cunning grin, and a wicked gleam shone in his triangular eyes.Toph couldn't contain his anger and clenched his fist, ready to strike. However, Melvin remained motionless, coldly observing them before bursting into hysterical laughter.Toph's punch abruptly halted just as it was

Lina and Renee leaned against each other, their panic evident.Lina reached into her pocket and realized her phone was missing, confirming their suspicions. With a signal in her eyes, she conveyed the message to Renee.Meanwhile, Renee racked her brain, recalling the incident of drinking juice from the maid before arriving."Cuz, it was the juice!" Renee exclaimed, and Lina was taken aback, still feeling the numbness on the tip of her tongue.Renee grabbed Lina's arm, trying to appear calm despite their distress. "Cuz... What should we do now?"Lina took a deep breath, but the air in the confined space was nauseating. She gathered herself, attempting to calm down.Renee pointed toward a small window nearby. Lina crouched down to look and saw the vast ocean covered in mist, making it impossible to determine their direction.They had no means of communication to contact the outside world. Meanwhile, the gazes of the other girls around them turned gradually hostile."Hey, are you

Krystal was taken aback, holding the half-burnt cigarette between her fingers as the smoke rings slowly dissipated. She carefully scrutinized Lina from head to toe, noting the girl's disheveled appearance yet sensing a fearless aura emanating from her being. Like gleaming silver stars, Lina's eyes shone with resolute determination, reminiscent of someone familiar to Krystal.Lost in her thoughts, Krystal failed to realize that her cigarette had burned down, only snapping back to reality when it scorched her hand, causing her to gasp. She quickly regained composure, adjusting her breathing and wearing the same confident smile."Young lady, don't you think you have too many questions?" she asked."Even if it means my death, I want to die with clarity," Lina softly replied."Heh, nobody's asking you to die. You two are precious to me," Krystal replied."Valuable enough to sell?" Renee stepped forward, instinctively positioning herself in front of Lina. "We're well aware of the busine
