Bert ran out of patience and knew that it was not a good thing. He stepped forward and grabbed the manager by the collar. "Where are they now? Make it clear!"
"The backyard, they are in the backyard..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the manager felt a gust of wind flash past his eyes, and the black shadow in front of him also disappeared. Huston followed closely behind, holding onto Evelyn's hand slower than him.
Bert strode out and went to the backyard through a pushed wooden door. As soon as he opened the door before he could enter, Lucas jumped out and said, "Uncle Harper!"
The child's voice was somewhat sharp, caused by nervousness and fear.
Bert pulled him into his arms, rare to fully display his most gentle side, and said, "I'm here."
"Ms. Graves... Ms. Graves, she..." The child's hesitant voice came from beside Bert.
Bert loosened his grip on the child's shoulder and stared at him. "Where is Alivia?"
"She was taken away by two other people. I was playing in the backyard, but suddenly two people came in from outside, grabbed my hand, and were going to drag me away. Later, Ms. Graves dragged him back and asked me to run. I saw the manager and told him, but when I returned to find her, Ms. Graves was already gone." Because he was a six-year-old child, in the case of being frightened, her words might not be very organized.
After Huston came down, he heard these words. His thick eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he glanced down at the woman in his arms. He gave a serious expression and ordered the manager beside him, "Get all the surveillance videos from your backyard for me to see, from half an hour ago until now."
The manager knew that something had happened, so he hurriedly agreed. "Okay, Mr. Lloyd, I'll go now."
Five minutes later, in the office.
