I woke up at midnight to find my husband out of bed. I called his number, but there was no answer. I searched everywhere and realized he wasn't around. The young nanny had disappeared as well.

A stoic, genius doctor and a cheery, adorable nanny are a perfect match! Tonya stands no chance against Ava!"
