Mommy had tucked us into the big, soft bed in her room.
I pretended to close my eyes, matching Sean’s deep breathing… I’m way better at faking it than he is.
I watched through my eyelashes as Mommy stood by the bed for a long time, just looking at us. Then, she slipped away.
She went straight for her laptop.
From my spot on the pillow, I could hear the frantic click–clack of her typing and the soft scratching of her stylus on the tablet.
I remembered the blueprints I’d seen in the Nightfang files; thousands of beautiful designs.
Was she designing another one?
I wanna see.
I waited until she was deep into what she was doing before I nudged Sean with my elbow.
He grunted, rubbing his eyes, but when he saw my finger pressed to my lips, hewent silent.
We slipped off the bed and bolted for the door.
“Sean,” I whispered once we were safely in the hallway, “Mommy’s amazing. All the jewelry she designs looks so beautiful.” Sean leaned against the wall, crossing his small arms. He’s always trying to look like Daddy, all serious and quiet.
He looked at me, his eyes narrowing. “How do you know that, Susie? What designs?”
I bit my lip, wishing I hadn’t told him. I shifted my weight from foot to foot, “I just… I’ve seen things.”
Sean didn’t move. He just gave me that pointed look that always made me talk. “What did you do again? Susie?”
I tried to keep my face blank, but my mouth betrayed me. A small, guilty smile tugged at the corners. “Yes?”
Sean let out a small, huffing laugh, shaking his head. “Of course, you snooped. What did you find out this time?”
I pulled him into our playroom and locked the door. “It was a while ago…I found a tablet and tried to search about mom. I found all her designs and they’re all so beautiful… but I couldn’t find them anymore.”
Sean’s brows drew together, a dark shadow crossing his face. “You mean all of Mommy’s work is gone? How?”
“I don’t know,” I muttered, my hands balling into fists.
Sean’s expression darkened until he looked exactly like Daddy, he stood up and walked toward my desk. “Try it again… we might
find it now.”
We hurried to the tablet that I took earlier, searching for Mom’s name; the keeper.
Soon, the results began to populate the screen. “Look,” I pointed.

Chapter 112 Sean And Susie
There were several records for a company, multiple things and then finally a mysterious designer named “The Keeper“.
“Wow… it’s so beautiful,” Sean exclaimed as he went through the designs.
“I told you so… Mom is so talented, like me” I bragged but he laughed in response.
“Of course… Should we tell Dad?” He asked.
Sean and I exchanged uncertain looks.
“What are you planning, Sean?” I asked.
After a moment of silence, Sean stood up. “What if Dad doesn’t know about it? We need to tell him.”

“What?” I balked, clutching my tablet to my chest. “If Daddy finds out I’ve been snooping… won’t he be angry? He might send us back to the island for real this time!”
Sean paused, looking toward the door. “Probably not,” he said finally. “He loves us and if it’s about Mommy… he’ll want to know.”
