Ellic froze for a second at Oscar’s unexpected question. However, she quickly pulled herself together crouching By us wrap both kids in her arms.
Looking into Oscar’s eyes, she said firmly. “When someone tries to bully you, it’s never about whether you have mor dad. He only cares if you’re weak enough. Even if you don’t have a dad, I’ll try my best to protect youst
Ellie hugged them tightly, offering comfort. “Stay right behind me, okay? The police will be here so**?
After reassuring them, Ellie slowly straightened up. These people were lawless, and she needed to figure on a way to go the kids out of there first.
Her gaze swept over the three arrogant teachers and the smug Miles. Then she lifted her phone and smirked. From the moment I stepped out of the elevator, I recorded everything–every action and every word. And it’s all right here in this phone.”

“Don’t cry. I’m coming in right now.” As Alex spoke, a disorienting pain stabbed through his head. For a split second, a flood of unfamiliar images flashed through his mind–fragmented memories that felt both foreign and deeply ingrained.
He gripped the metal bars of the electric gate, steadying himself against the dizziness.
“It’s okay. I’m here.” The words left his lips instinctively as if he had said them countless times before.
