“And don’t even think about running to your grandfather, he added. “If you tell him about this, don’t blame me for what happens to your mother. If you think you’re brave enough to call my bluff, go ahead. We’ll see who ends up suffering.”
Before Larissa could respond, he hung up.
Wren, having overheard the conversation, was aghast. “He’s lost his mind! How could he dare to harm Madam?”
Larissa set her phone down on the table with a wry smile. “He’s a cornered dog. He knows he’s about to lose everything, so he’s willing to risk it all on one last gamble.”
Wren’s face was still pale. “What do we do now, miss? I saw your parents didn’t come home last night, but I just assumed they were out enjoying themselves. I never imagined something like this could happen…
“Don’t worry, Wren,” Larissa reassured her. “My mother is fine. My father is with her. They’ll be back. soon,”

After breakfast, Larissa received a text from Haskell.
[Larissa, I’m on my way.]
