Suddenly, Chase, Quinton's subordinate, rushed into the room. "I have clues! Adie, he…" He stopped when he realized Renee was awake, and glanced at Quinton uncertainly. "What's wrong with Adie? Tell me now!" Renee ignored her injured wrist and leaped out of bed to go to Chase. "Tell me the truth! I'm his mother; I have the right to know!"The bandage around Renee's wrist was red with blood because she had moved too quickly, and when Leia noticed that, she hurriedly held Renee and said soothingly, "Ren, calm down. If not, your wound will open again…""I'll get the nurse!" Justin said anxiously and immediately ran out of the room.A nurse quickly entered a few moments later, and was shocked to see the bloodstained bandage. "Stop moving around. Are you trying to make it worse?""I'm fine!" Renee snapped, determined to get an answer from Chase. "Tell me about Adie's condition now!""Adie, he…" Chase turned to Quinton hesitantly, unsure if he should tell Renee or not."We'll deal wi

"Adie... Well, he..." Chase hesitated, but when he saw Quinton's menacing expression, he hurriedly said, "Adie said that he was happy on the island and didn't want to come home. He even asked us not to disturb him.""What?" Quinton, Leia, and the others were stunned. "Adie was kidnapped—he's not there on vacation! How could he possibly be having fun? Was there some sort of misunderstanding?" Leia asked in disbelief."I'm sure Adie didn't send that!" Quinton glared at Chase. "You're useless. You couldn't handle such a small thing, and you're now trying to lie to us? Get lost!""No, Boss… Adie did say that!" Chase quickly took his phone out and pointed at a text with a picture sent by Adie. "See? That's Adie, right? He even took a selfie, and he looks… happy."Everyone gathered around Chase to read the message. There was a picture of Adie attached to it, and in it, he was sitting on the beach and staring out at the ocean. He looked rather relaxed for someone who had supposedly been

Adie recalled how Madelyn acted like a wicked witch in the cave at first, but now, she was gentle and compassionate. It was like seeing two different people, and he had no idea what had happened in between. Maybe he had charmed Tiffany's mother, or maybe she had suddenly realized her mistake. All he knew was that Madelyn tied him and Tiffany up before moving them to that deserted island, and gave them food and water from time to time. At night, she would chat with them and sing nursery rhymes for them to put them to sleep. It was baffling. Tiffany seemed happy, but sometimes she cried and clung to Madelyn. Adie was very curious but kept himself from asking about it. Once Madelyn trusted him more, he would bring it up."It's because..." Madelyn stopped flicking the firewood as her gaze grew fierce. "I think of my dead child every time I look at you kids. It's so unfair... Why are you kids so loved by everyone while my child didn't even get to be born? I want you kids to die with my chi

Tiffany watched Madelyn with teary eyes, then said carefully, "Mommy, I love you. I've always loved you. I've never been mad at you… and I've wronged my brother. Can you forgive me?" She was just a child, but she understood Madelyn's mood swings and feelings toward her. She did not blame Madelyn, and instead, held on by recalling how nicely Madelyn had treated her before. If Madelyn called her, Tiffany would rush over without hesitation regardless of how much Madelyn had hurt her. "No, I should be the one apologizing…" Madelyn admitted finally. "I wasn't good enough. I made you feel insecure, so you were anxious about the arrival of your brother. I wasn't good enough, so your daddy had no confidence that I would treat you well.""It's okay." Madelyn's words moved Tiffany to tears, and the little girl threw herself into Madelyn's arms. "I'll always be your daughter as long as you want me to. I see you as my biological mother!""Thank you for forgiving me. I hope this realization of

The wind calmed a little half an hour later, but the downpour kept worsening. Stefan quickly docked the yacht, then got onto the island in the pouring rain. "Mr. Hunt, slow down... Wait!" The captain ran after Stefan with an umbrella, trying to shield him from the heavy rain. "This island is remote and undeveloped, and people don't dare to come here. We have to be careful in case we run into undercurrents or hidden caves." "I don't care about any of that!" Stefan snapped, "Get more manpower. I have to find my son!" Even a second of delay in this weather would be risky for Adie, and Stefan couldn't afford that. "But there's no signal here. We can't get in touch with the others!" The captain held the walkie-talkie up in the air, but there was no response or signal. It was impossible to get more manpower, and it was also dangerous because they couldn't contact a rescue team if needed."Keep trying, or go get the yacht and sail back to get some men. I'll look around on the island."
