    Shannon’s voice carried a chill that sent a chill down the spine of anyone who heard it.


    Only now did Tania realize just how terrifying the people around her really were.


    So that bottle Shannon had broken really did contain psychiatric medication. That stuff could ruin a person’s mind.


    To think the man she shared a bed with had no idea she was harboring such vicious


    intentions.


    Tania couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pity for Henry, though at the same time, a small part of her felt he had iting.


    The room fell silent for a long while. Tania quickly straightened up and tiptoed away.


    Nadine didn’t stay much longer either, leaving the apartment shortly after.


    As evening approached, Abel’s bedroom door still hadn’t opened.


    Miranda stood outside, staring at the firmly shut door, her brow furrowed so deeply it could have cracked a walnut.


    Demi couldn’t help but look worried. “Mom, should I try calling out to him? Or we could get a locksmith? We can’t just let Abel stay in there forever without food or water.”


    Miranda red in frustration. “He’s throwing another tantrum. Is this the first time you’ve seen this? Let’s see how long he can keep it up this time!”


    With that, she stormed off in a huff.


    Demi paused for a moment, then followed after her, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips that she made no effort to hide.


    Inside the room, Abel was well aware of themotion outside, but he didn’t care. He simply sat there, staring nkly out the window


    Through thetticed window frame, a branch stretched toward the sky, lush and green, but in Abel’s eyes, it held no life at all.


    His gaze settled on the brown bark, and every swaying leaf seemed to writhe.


    Without realizing it, something slid down Abel’s handsome face.

    Somehow, even though the room oras perfectly tent, his mind was deafening. filled with noting Your Tess’s voice ying over and ther


    She didn’t want him anymore.


    Every cold, heartless word she had spoken reyed in his mind, until only that one truth remained, scared into his heart.


    Abel’s arms and lips trembled.


    11e was filled with hate.


    Not for Tess’s coldness, but for being born into the Shaws. He hated Miranda, hated Demi, and he hated himself


    Abel lifted his head, his dull, lifeless eyes fixed on the ceiling.


    If one looked closely, the hand resting at the edge of the bed was trembling too.


    As the night deepened, the rustling of leaves outside grew louder, grating on Abel’s nerves.


    Meanwhile, Miranda’s earlier anger had given way to something darker. A shadow settled over her face,


    He still hasn’te out?


    The maid stood timidly by the door, afraid that a single wrong word might set Miranda off.


    She kept her head low. “No. He hasn’t left his room since he came home.”


    The silence that followed was heavier and colder than before.


    Standing beside Miranda, Demi felt a chill creep up her spine, raising goosebumps on her


    skin.


    “Maybe… we should just have someone break the door open.”


    Demi couldn’t help but suggest.


    This time, Miranda didn’t refuse right away. She stared at the door for a long moment before finally turning to the maid with a cold look. “Go. Get <i>a </i>locksmith.”


    The maid hurried off, and Demi studied Miranda’s expression carefully.

    It seems Ms. Tess really does mean a lot to Abel Mom, are you sure you want to force them apart? What if .. you know how Abel can be when he’s pushed too far. If he does something reckless despite your warnings…


    Demi trailed off deliberately.


    Miranda’s expression shifted instantly, and she snapped. “He wouldn’t dare!


    “This family raised him all these years. Is he really going to throw everything away for some woman?”


    Fury crawled across Miranda’s face, warping and cracking her carefully maintained image of a gracious societydy.


    She ground her teeth as if Tess’s name were caught between them, as if she wanted to crush her.


    Watching Miranda fall right into her trap, a flicker of satisfaction crossed Demi’s eyes.


    But she didn’t let things spiral further. Instead, she stepped forward with a show of concern, pretending to calm Miranda down, though every word only made her angrier.


    Fortunately, the locksmith arrived just then.


    After a brief exnation from the maid, he set his toolbox on the floor, pulled out his tools, and got to work on the lock.


    Click!


    A crisp sound rang out.


    Some of the fury faded from Miranda’s face, and her eyes locked onto the half–open door.


    The maid stepped forward and pushed it wide open, revealing the scene inside.


    Miranda froze.


    “Where is he?”


    She strode into the room. It waspletely empty.


    Demi’s expression stiffened as well. She quickly turned to the maid. “Didn’t you say he never came out? How is he gone?”


    The maid looked just as stunned.


    “I was watching the whole time. I never left my post for even a second, How could he have

    Her eyes went wide, her voice faltering as a sinking feeling settled in her stomach.
