If I didn't open the door, he didn't linger, he just left the food hanging on the door.

Each breakfast was different and cwith a sticky note.

"I remember you loved these when we had breakfast at the mansion. I didn't need Gary's reminder "The weather forecast predicts snow this Sunday. Want to build a snowman together?" "When will you letin?" "Jane, I miss you." Holding the sticky note, something insidesoftened a bit, only forto deliberately ignore it.

1 need to talk to you in person today." Bryant didn't cin. His gaze was fixed onas he spoke abruptly. "No matter what happens, you need to trust me, okay?" An uneasy feeling washed over me, "What do you mean?" "It's nothing." His cool hand brushed my head as he spoke with gravity. "Just take care of yourself. Don't listen, don't look, don't believe anything else.

He checked it, his expression darkening. Handingmy breakfast, he said, "7 might not be able to cby for a while, but someone will bring your meals. Please, take care of yourself." Then, he answered the call and left with a stern look.

I messaged back asking for the name, to which he replied, “Just wait for her to find you." Sighing. I grabbed my car keys and headed out.

As I started the car, ready to leave, a cold blade suddenly pressed against my neck from behind.

My whole body went numb as I slamched on the he brakes "Who are you? How ad you get in my car?"

"Drive. Don't stop." The voice was chilling, and though his face wasn hidden behind my seat, his large build was evident through the rearview mirror.

When I hesitated, the blade pressed closer, causing a slight pain. Through gritted teeth, he ordered, "I said drive! out of the garage, then down Harmony Street. Keep going"
