His tears welled up as he spoke about Emma, “This is the second time Emma had an accident trying to find you!” He recounted how Emma got into a car accident on the highway the first time she tried to find Janie, “If Emma hadn’t been a skilled race car driver, she would have died!” Janie couldn’t hold back her tears either.

Despite the gravity of the situation, Benjamin tried to keep his composure as he shared that Emma was still missing, and they had no idea where she could be. He expressed his concern and disappointment in Janie, I’m afraid things don’t look good. Janie, this is the cost of leaving without a word!”
