Nana was worried when she saw Adrian and Aileen rush outside, so she followed them.

“Where is Mommy? How come she suddenly disappeared?”

Adrian was getting anxious. He looked around but didn’t see Eliana.

“Adrian, do you think Mommy crossed paths with a bad person? I’m really worried. Let’s call the police!”

Aileen nervously grabbed her brother’s hand. Worry was written all over her face.

While the kids were worried, Nana, who was taller than them, saw two persons’ shadows under the big tree not far away. She instantly figured out everything.

One of the two seemed to be Eliana. She should be fine. She probably didn’t want the children to see the man she was with.

Having understood what was happening, Nana hastened to reassure the two children.

“Hey darlings, don’t worry. I assure you that your mommy is fine. It’s so cold. We’d better hurry back inside, or we’ll catch a cold.”
