Chapter 958 “We‘ll go to sleep first,” said George. He turned and took out a blanket from the cabinet and laid it on the bed. The four children huddled together in Harold‘s room and slowly fell asleep.
The night sky outside the window slowly became brighter. Dawn emerged as the morning sun rose slowly up in the sky. A new day had come.
Harold was the first to wake up.
He jumped out of his bed. “Mommy must be back!” He opened the door and rushed out. Unfortunately, he only saw Colin downstairs. He was alone, cleaning the table.
“Papa Brown, is Mommy awake?” Colin raised his head. “Mr. and Mdm. Winters have not come home since heading out last night.”
Harold‘s face turned pale. “Mommy isn‘t home yet...”
He turned around and rushed into the master bedroom. The blanket was neatly folded. There was no sign of people sleeping on that bed. This meant that his parents had not come home last night. “Calm down.” George said calmly, “I‘ll call Daddy.”
Duke‘s phone vibrated.
He was standing on the road in the misty morning. With his sunken eyes, he could not see the end of the road.
He had been standing for a long time and his neck had grown a little stiff. He slowly put the phone to his ear.
“Daddy, where are you and Mommy?”
He felt like he missed something as the ominous premonition feeling in his heart continued to grow. He felt even colder as the winter breeze blew past him.
