Chapter 1891
Feeling reassured, I then focused on enjoying dinner with the two kids.
We all had a wonderful time together.
Elena was charming with her kind words, and I couldn’t stop smiling because of those two kids.
Suddenly, I sensed something was wrong.
Turning around, I caught Caleb’s strange expression.
Following his gaze, I saw the open chat box with Carlos on his phone.
Carlos’ latest message said, “Neal openly challenged me.
Alexandria is missing.
”
The news made me instinctively tighten my hold on my children.
I had a gut feeling that Alexandria despised me deeply.
Now that she suddenly disappeared, I feared she might go to extreme lengths to harm me.
Caleb placed his phone face down on the table and looked at me.
Seeing my expression, he realized I had seen the message.
“Did you see everything?” he asked.
Debra’s POV:
I nodded solemnly and instructed the butler, “Take the children to their room and ensure they do not leave the villa under any circumstances.
”
The butler, unaware of the full situation, nodded earnestly and assured me, “Understood.
I’ll inform the rest of the staff.
”
Feeling a bit more at ease after the children were safely away, I acknowledged my own vigilance.
It wasn’t just an overreaction.
Alexandria was unpredictable, and the large, bustling nature of our manor meant that accidents could happen, regardless of the security in place.
Caleb then contacted the head of our security team.
“Increase the guards for the children and tighten security throughout the manor.
Adjust the patrols for maximum safety, and monitor all entries and exits closely,” he commanded.
The security captain took the orders seriously and set out to coordinate the new protocols.
The manor was on high alert.
It was just Caleb and me left in the living room.
“Don’t worry, I’ve dispatched people to locate Alexandria.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
She won’t be able to get inside here,” he reassured me gently, holding my hand.
Despite our precautions, a lingering anxiety remained within me.
Trying to soothe my nerves, I responded, “I trust you.
”
Over the next couple of days, the heightened security allowed us some peace, though the tension was palpable.
During a quieter moment, I played with Dylan in the living room.
His attention was caught by a bicycle on the television, sparking his desire to ride one in the backyard.
