Jeffrey remembered what Karen said at the airport, that she and Kenneth were going back to her parents’ place the day after that.
He scrapped against the leather with restless irritation.
"Damn it, Jeffrey, why the hell would you go after her? A heartless woman!" he cursed himself.
But the thought of hitting another bar or club didn't appeal to him anymore so he just drove back to his apartment.

Heather's mother had to seek Amanda’s help because Heather was nowhere to be found.
Amanda answered the phone with ease, "I have no idea where that girl has run off to! It's been ages since we've spoken.” "I'm afraid something's happened to her!" "It shouldn't be. Maybe she just needed to clear her head so she took a little trip to unwind. Don't worry about it." After offering a few comforting words, Amanda hung up the phone.
She called over the butler with a flick of her wrist, "Where did the master go?" "He's out... said something about hitting the golf course.” Amanda raised an eyebrow, "So he won't be back for a while?" "Seems likely." The butler nodded. "Shall | call him for you, ma'am?" "No need. If he gets back before | do, just tell him | went shopping and give me a ring. Don't let on.” The butler didn't dare to press for more. He responded and promptly arranged for the chauffeur to take Amanda away.
Amanda dressed down in casual wear. She donned a hat and a mask to cover her face, and also instructed the driver to take a few extra turns around downtown before heading to the final destination.
It was a secluded house in the suburbs, guarded and with windows nailed shut so tight not even a fly could escape.
Upon seeing the car arrive, the guard on duty bowed respectfully.
"Mrs. Lopez." "How is she?" Amanda stepped out of the car and scanned the interior.
"Same as always, ranting and raving. She's been eating well, though. We've followed your orders and kept her indoors." Amanda waved them aside to stand clear.
That's right, the one confined inside was Heather! When they had sent Everett off to Swevia Country, they had Heather detained and placed under house arrest right here.

Amanda entered alone. She didn't worry about Heather causing any harm; there was another layer of iron bars keeping her securely locked away.
Heather stirred at the sound of someone entering. Upon seeing Amanda, she immediately stood up. Her eyes lit up as if she saw the Silverline, "Amanda, you finally came! Please, let me out!" Amanda frowned at Heather. Her tone was laced with disapproval and irritation.
"How can I let you out? You've hurt my son!" "Amanda... | was in total despair. | loved him so much that | wanted to kill him and then die with him!" Heather's hands clutched the bars. Her appearance was haggard and disheveled from the lack of sunlight.
"Haven't | always told you to keep your cool? Why don't you ever listen? Now look what's happened. | can't help you anymore.
The fact that you're still alive is the last favor | can do for you,” Amanda said firmly. "You saved my life once, and I've repaid you many times over. We're even. But the moment you laid hands on Everett, | can't help you anymore." "What are you saying?" "Give up on the idea of being a Lopez by marriage. Everett's father is already looking for a new suitor."
