Aiken replied, “Okay.”

After the call ended, Skylar pondered whether to inform Steven about Maisy. Unlike her, Steven hadn’t experienced such inhumane suffering and did not need to know about this unsavory situation. It was better to let him think that Maisy was simply in hiding for a while. novelbin

With everything that had happened, Skylar found it impossible to fall asleep. She had also been reading, focusing on books related to psychology.

Today, she was supposed to visit the home of an elder, a friend of Gloria, Nicole Binder, who was celebrating her 80th birthday.

Skylar intended to bring a gift and also consult about fortune telling. Nicole had been facing some issues at home. Initially, she didn’t want to celebrate her birthday due to her declining health, but it was suggested that a gathering could bring positive energy, so she agreed.

but unexpected

She rubbed her temples and set down her book, then headed to the bathroom to freshen up.

In a dimly lit warehouse, Maisy was blindfolded, and a pair of smelly socks that someone had discarded were stuffed in her mouth.

Sounds echoed around her, the distant noise of video games being played. No matter how much noise she made, the others in the warehouse ignored her completely, treating her as if

she were invisible.

At that moment, her fear began to dissipate. She couldn’t believe that Steven would actually harm her. After all, she was his biological sister.

“You’d treat me like this just for her? Aren’t you worried I’ll never forgive you after this? And who are these people you’ve got here, anyway? They stuffed smelly socks in my mouth.”

Maisy didn’t feel threatened in the slightest. She glared up defiantly at the person standing before her, demanding answers with an arrogant attitude.

But the figure in front of her said nothing.

Then, out of nowhere, a sharp clap cracked across her face, leaving her stunned.

A powerful kick hit her square in the chest a second later, launching her backward. She crashed to the ground, the chair flipping over with her still tied to it.
