Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Ties of Betrayal

"I need copies," Veyra said. "Lots of copies."

She handed over her phone. The woman looked at the photograph.

"Is this a missing person?"

"Yes. A little girl. And the man who took her."

The woman’s face softened. "I’ll do it for free."

"No. I’ll pay. Just make them fast."

Ten minutes later, Veyra walked out with a stack of flyers. The photograph was on top. Lily’s face. The man’s silhouette with her phone number at the bottom.

She started with the shops closest to the café. The bakery. The shoe store. A small grocery. A bookstore. A pharmacy.

She handed flyers to the owners. Explained the situation. Asked them to keep an eye out.

Most agreed. A few looked annoyed. She did not care.

She taped flyers to lampposts. To bus stops. To the windows of empty storefronts.

By the time she finished, her hands were covered in tape residue and her feet were throbbing.

But she had covered the entire district.

Now she waited.

Her phone rang.

She grabbed it so fast she nearly dropped it.

"Hello?"

"Mrs. Thorne." Li Wei’s voice. "Mr. Thorne has arrived at the café. He’s asking for you."

Her heart jumped. "I’ll be there in ten minutes."

She hung up and started walking. Her feet hurt. Her arm hurt. Her head hurt.

She walked faster.

The café was still empty when she returned.
