The man realized his mistake and chuckled awkwardly. 

“Hey, my apologies, Mr. Lewis,” he said, carefully extending his apology, before swiftly changing the topic, saying, “Mr. Lewis, will you all be riding in my car, or how would you like to proceed?” 

His use of ‘you all Included Kevan and Aster, who had been sticking close to Larissa. 

Lewis pulled Larissa aside and stated, “It will just be the two of us.” 

“Get it! Sure thing!” The man took the initiative to help with the luggage cart 

He smiled as he continued. “My car is parked outside. So, please follow me for a short walk” 

Larissa turned to Dylan and inquired. “What about you?” 

“My car is parked on the basement level We’re headed in different directions.” Dylan replied, gesturing casually behind him. 

Larissa tumed her attention to Aster.

She ruffled his hair as she advised. “Be a good boy and listen to Daddy, I have to work today, but I’ll come see you tomorrow.” 

Aster nadded in understanding. 

She then exchanged a glance with Kevan, who was also looking at her. 

In his jet–black eyes, there was a subtle hint of reluctance.

She was holding a gleaming kitchen knife. 

It could be none other than Maria. 

“Open the gatel Maria pounded on the heavy iron gate with her knile. 

Her voice was strained as she shouted, “Give me back my Edmund!” 

Aster, unfamiliar with such a situation, cowered in Kevan’s arms. 

“Daddy, who is she?” he asked in a hushed tone. 

Kevan whispered, “She’s someone who isn’t well.” 

He gently shielded Aster’s eyes with his hand and offered comfort, “You don’t need to be scared, buddy. I’m here.” 

Dylan retrieved his phone and asked Kevan, “Should we call the police?” 

Kevan nodded in agreement. 

The three of them remained seated in the car.
