Chapter 48 A Mother’s Desperation.

“Look how she angered Milton that day! Her actions nearly destroyed our family!”

Clifton’s anger flared as he recalled the incident at the banquet.

“No, Nora… She’s suffering at the Happy Harpers in Keford!” Bessie cried out, her voice hoarse and

desperate.

Only Clifton could save their daughter now.

Clifton stopped in his tracks and turned back to question Bessie.

Clifton knew better than to blame Harriet, a simpleton, for such a scheme. His mind was set on Delbert

as the mastermind behind it all.

The mere thought of confronting Delbert terrified him, so he avoided/ going to the island altogether.

Bessie, heartbroken and helpless, couldn’t bear the thought of Nora suffering at the Happy Harpers.

The island was bathed in the warm, golden glow of the setting sun. The fiery orb cast a brilliant red hue
