Two days later, Evelyn was out shopping and having dinner with Grace. They hadn’t seen each other in a long time, so there was a lot to talk about. However, just then, Evelyn received a phone call from Lucy.

As soon as she put the phone to her ear, she heard Lucy’s panicked voice, “Evelyn, something terrible has happened! Our child is missing!”

Evelyn’s hand, which was holding the knife and fork, dropped upon hearing those words. Her mind went blank for a moment before she managed to respond in a daze, “Mom, what are you saying…?”
