Chapter 193

Someone’s calling. It’s Julia!

Amelie glanced in that direction only to see Julia tottering over in a rush with her twisted arm.

“No! No! Stop it! B-Bria is at the other end!” Tears wet her paled face as she shook her head vigorously. She was on the brink of losing her mind.

Everyone’s expression changed at that instant. Julia’s reaction made Amelie’s heart sink to the pit of her stomach. “What happened? Where’s Bria?”

“Why did you let the kid in? Can’t you keep an eye on a kid?” Someone from the crows reproached.

Frantic and remorse filled Julia to the brim as she bit her lower lip. “I… People were jostling around and she ran in. I-I’m terribly sorry!”

She then sprinted in another direction with wobbly legs, shouting Bria’s name again and again. Meanwhile, Amelie broke into a cold sweat. It was as if someone had taken away a part of her; the hollow was painful.

“What happened?” asked Leo, who was undoing the safety gears.

Samuel approached him with a somber face. Instead of words, he merely shot a look at Leo.

Leo took the hint as he whispered to Amelie, “I’ll take a look.”

When the men were about to leave, Amelie suddenly piped up determinedly, “Samuel, just spill it.”

He hesitated, but she added in a quivering voice, “Bria is my daughter. I have the right to know what happened.”
