Haynes'' face turned pale. "What did you say?!"


    On the other end, his assistant hurriedly replied, "The young master fell into theke and has been taken to the hospital by ambnce!"


    ...


    At the amusement park, Ste''s good mood evaporatedpletely after a call


    from Haynes.


    Marvin, ever the sensible one, suggested, "Ste, since Keen is missing, we should go look for him. We won''t enjoy ourselves anyway if we keep worrying." Ste''s eyes flickered, like the wavering me of a candle, deep in thought.


    Marvin added, "Keen and I go to the same preschool. We''re usually good friends, and I''d be really upset if something happened to him."


    Ste gave Marvin aplex look. At preschool, Keen often bullied Marvin. She had already been called twice to resolve their issues. Yet Marvin still called Keen his friend, forgiving him without hesitation. It was heartbreakingly mature.


    Neville chimed in, "We should definitely look for him. After all, Keen is your son. Even if it was another child from the preschool who went missing, we''d help search."


    Neville, with his seeminglyid-back demeanor, had such a soft heart. It was probably this nature of his that raised Marvin to be such a considerate kid.


    Ste pondered for a moment and nodded gently.


    As they headed toward the exit, Marvin suddenly stopped, staring nkly in a particr direction.


    Ste noticed Marvin''s odd behavior and asked gently, "Marvin, what''s up?"


    Marvin snapped back to reality. "Oh, nothing... Dad, Ste, I just need to use the restroom."


    "Do you want me toe with you?" Ste offered.


    "No, no," Marvin replied quickly. "I can go by myself."


    Marvin was an independent child, rarely needing adults to worry over such matters.


    Ste nodded, "Alright, call me if you need anything."


    Marvin had just left when Ste''s phone rang again. It was Haynes, once more.


    With a frown, Ste decisively hung up on Haynes'' call.


    Back in the day, Haynes rarely called her. If he ever did, Ste would be beside herself with excitement. But now, all she felt was annoyance.


    No sooner had she ended the call than Haynes called again, undeterred.


    Neville nced at her, understanding the situation. "You should answer it. Keen is missing, and he must be worried."


    Ste nodded slightly, not because she was concerned about Haynes'' anxiety but because she knew he wouldn''t stop calling until she picked up.


    After notifying Neville, Ste found a quiet corner and answered the call.


    "Keen''s missing, so go look for him. Can you stop bothering me?"


    Haynes'' voice was low and cold, "You''re at the amusement park, and so is Keen. Ste, are you telling me you''re not with him?"


    Ste almostughed in frustration. "Just because I''m at the amusement park and Keen is too, doesn''t mean we''re together. There are tons of people here. Why don''t you im he''s with someone else?"


    Haynes retorted, "Then tell me, why are you at the amusement park if he''s there too?"
