But when she walked out of the small building, she was blocked by two thugs, who roared viciously, “You dare try to run!”

She couldn’t understand the local language and could only express herself in English: “Let me out! My daughter is missing. I have to find her!”

Unfortunately, the two thugs were rough men and had no patience to listen to her. They shoved her back rudely. “Get back! If you run again, we’ll kill you!”

She was no match for these two and didn’t dare to fight them head–on. But she couldn’t calm down, not knowing where Ann was.

She suddenly thought of someone and turned to run back.

“Trina! Trina! Help me!”

Trina, who had recovered a bit from childbirth, was sipping a nourishing drink, her face pale. Seeing her rush in, she looked up. “Dr. Tatiana?”

“Ann is missing! I have to find her! But the men outside won’t let me leave. Please, help me!”

She revealed a humble plea.

In this place, the only person she could ask for help was Trina. She could only hope that, given that Tatiana had safely delivered her baby, Trina would help find Ann.

However, Trina shook her head, her face full of pity. “In this place, a three–year–old child alone… basically…”

…has no chance of survival.

She didn’t say the last words.

But Tatiana understood.

Her vision went black, and she almost collapsed.

Because Trina had given birth to a son, her status had risen. She even had people to wait on her and had gained a small bit of influence in the base.

So, she showed rare mercy and helped Tatiana look for her.

Unfortunately, there was no trace of Ann.

Three hours had passed since Ann’s disappearance.

Tatiana couldn’t calm down at all, but she was locked in the base, without even the right to go outside.

She had to find a way to leave.

At night, the base was in a state of revelry.

Ashton was celebrating his first son and naturally had to celebrate wildly. He ordered a carnival–like feast. Wine and food were endless, and countless cars drove in and out. The base’s defenses weakened, and they were clearly short–staffed.

Tatiana noticed this and silently looked for an opening.

Hubert stuck close to her, not daring to go anywhere. His eyes were red and swollen from crying, his voice hoarse. His little face was filled with self–blame and fear.

She looked down, stroked his small head, and said softly “I don’t blame you.”

Hubert didn’t make a sound, just buried his head lower

A few drops of water hit the ground.

Her heart ached slightly. She knelt down. “Hubert, look at me.”

Hubert finally raised his head, revealing a pair of red, tear–filled eyes.

If he kept crying, his eyes would be ruined.

“It’s not your fault. Stop crying.”

“It’s my fault. If it weren’t for me, Ann wouldn’t have left. It’s my fault, wuwuwu…”

Since Hubert had grown up, he rarely cared about anyone. Besides his daddy and grandpa, he had no friends. Even his mommy was fake, just using him. He had finally met Ann and Tatiana, but…

But Ann left…

It was all because he was too stupid, too weak.

He wished he could grow up. If he grew up, he could protect Ann.

“I’m sorry.”

“Shh, don’t apologize. Ann wouldn’t want to hear you apologize. She would definitely want you to be okay.”

Hubert slowly stopped sobbing, staring blankly at Tatiana. His small mouth opened and closed, and he suddenly asked a question: “Why did Ann have to do this?”

Tatiana was silent.

“Why? I don’t understand… Why would Ann rather leave by herself?”

At this very moment, Tatiana dropped her final hesitation. Her tone was serious and firm as she said:

“Because you are her brother.”

“Wuwuwu… I’m the most useless brother. I don’t deserve to be Ann’s brother!”

Seeing the little guy about to break down again, Tatiana suddenly hugged him tightly. “Hubert, I’m sorry I kept this from you. Actually… I am your mommy. Your real mommy. Ann is your biological sister. She was willing to sacrifice herself for your safety. Now, we have to go save her. I need your help. Don’t cry, okay?”

These few sentences, word by word, poured into Huberts ears. He stared wide–eyed, his pupils filled with disbelief.

“You are my… mommy?”
