Ben nearly walked out of the company the moment he learned Charlie was missing. Unfortunately, he was in the middle of a crucial meeting when the call came in.
As Ben rose to leave, the board members exchanged nervous glances and scrambled to stop him.
“Mr. Lucas, where are you going?”
“You can’t leave now! This issue hasn’t been resolved yet. Without a clear direction, how can we proceed?”
Their frantic objections only made Ben’s temper flare. Shooting them a sharp glare, his icy tone silenced the room. “I have more important matters to attend to. This discussion can wait.”
The board members gaped, but Ben didn’t give them a chance to argue further. He strode out, leaving behind a roomful of frustrated sighs and resigned faces.

Meanwhile, Jamie arrived at the preschool, her face pale and her steps quick. She spotted Miss Georgia pacing nervously and hurried over. “Miss Georgia, have you found him yet?”
Miss Georgia looked momentarily relieved at Jamie’s arrival, but her expression quickly shifted to one of guilt and anxiety. “Not yet. I’ve searched everywhere, but I can’t figure out where he’s gone.”
Hearing this, Jamie felt a wave of dizziness threaten to overtake her.
Dismissal time at a preschool was notoriously chaotic. It was a perfect opportunity for someone with bad intentions to slip in unnoticed. Jamie’s mind spun with terrifying possibilities, her chest tightening with dread.
But she forced herself to stay calm. “Let’s check the security cameras,” she said through gritted teeth.
“Yes! The cameras! I’ll go now!” Miss Georgia slapped her forehead, berating herself for not thinking of it sooner.
As they headed to view the footage, Jamie suddenly froze. Her heart clenched as she spotted Charlie in the distance. Without a second thought, she broke into a run, scooping him into her arms.
