After dinner, Arabella and Eunice left the restaurant and took the elevator down to the lobby.
Outside, the world was a white blur as large snowflakes began to fall like feathers from heaven.
That was when Eunice’s phone rang, her tone souring instantly, "You let her go?"
On the other end, Leno was taken aback, having thought that roughing up Serena was enough. He hadn't expected his boss to
insist on keeping her.
"It's my fault, ma'am! I'll bring her back immediately"
“Just textthe location,” Eunice commanded.
It dawned on Leno that she intended to handle Serena personally.
Meanwhile.
After a brutal beating, Serena finally wriggled out of the sack as she heard her assailants’ footsteps fade away.

The ally was deserted, stretching endlessly under the snowy night sky.
She was crying and her heart shattered with fear, she spotted her purse not far away. Wincing with pain, she crawled towards it,
trembling hands fumbling for her phone.
Terrified and in disarray didn’t begin to describe her state. She knew there was only one person in all of Dawnstar who could save
her!
She scrolled through her contacts and dialed Bard's number.
The call connected in seconds, and Bard's calm voice cthrough.
"Serena.
Tears choked her words, “Uncle Bard. I've been bullied!"
Bard's voice immediately filled with concern, “What happened? Where are you? Who did this to you?"
Through her sobs. "Please send someone to Hill Street to pickup."
Crowded with people, even her attackers wouldn't dare touch her in plain sight.
"You're in Dawnstar? Stay put, I'm nearby. I'll cfor you myself."
After hanging up, Serena wiped the icy tears from her face and staggered forward, shivering with cold and fear.
On the other side.
A convoy of cars stopped in front of Eunice and Arabella. Eunice took an umbrella from a bodyguard and held it over Arabella.
“Bella, you head back first. | have sbusiness to take care of."
“Alright.” Arabella didn’t pry. Climbing into the car, she gave her aunt a glance, "Cback soon."
"Will do." Eunice affectionately patted her head before closing the car door for her.
As she watched the main car drive away with Arabella, Eunice casually got into one of the security vehicles and, after looking at
the address Leno sent her, commanded coldly, "To find the girl."
Leno had immediately rallied his men to recapture Serena after getting orders from the boss. She was almost out of the ally when
someone grabbed her, stuffing a rag into her mouth.

A large burlap sack was slipped over her upper body, and the opening was tied tight with a rope.
The familiar terror overwhelmed Serena as she whimpered and struggled, but to no avail.
She couldn't understand why they had cback, and the feeling of utter despair made her tremble uncontrollably, tears
streaming down her face.
Oddly enough, after dragging her to the middle of the lane, the men didn't proceed further.
That was until a car stopped at the entrance.
When Serena heard the noise, her tearful eyes flickered with hope. Was it her uncle coming to save her?
He was nearby and had promised to cquickly.
The car door opened and a bodyguard held an umbrella aloft. Eunice stepped out, her elegance and authority mingling with each
step, her presence commanding yet alluring.
As the footsteps drew closer, Serena grew fearful. Why was she hearing the click-clack of high heels on the pavement?
Was it not her uncle?
