"Got it," Rodolfo said, finally understanding. "No wonder Mr. Clemens always chews me out. Guess I still have a lot to learn from you guys." "Better keep quiet," Andrew warned. "Mr. Clemens is really pissed right now."

"Yeah," Rodolfo muttered, glancing nervously at Micah's back.

"Just keep an eye on things. Don't do anything stupid. Wait for me to get there," Micah said, finishing up with the local cops. He checked his watch and hurried toward the boarding gate. Andrew, Rodolfo, and the others followed close behind.

Meanwhile, Sadie's plane had already taken off.

Despite the rare moment of peace, Sadie couldn't calm down. Worrying about the dangers Mia might face made her heart ache, and she wished she could take Amelia out right then and there. "Rumor has it Mr. Clemens is swift and ruthless. Why's he taking so long with Amelia?" Arya whispered to Annika.

"Maybe it's because he has kids now, and he's softened up," Annika guessed. "Or maybe he's got other concerns."

"What concerns?" Arya said, raising her hand for emphasis. "I remember Mr. James once said, 'To get things done, you have to be decisive. The more concerns you have, the harder it is to succeed."" "Quiet," Annika whispered. "Ms. James is already annoyed."

"Okay," Arya quickly shut her mouth, not daring to say more.

Sadie stared out at the clouds, her brows furrowed.

The closer they got to their destination, the clearer her memories became. She still vividly remembered being forcibly sent away by the Clemens family, and the experiences she had in that country replayed in her mind. Amelia's actions kept reminding her that hatred must be resolved. If not, it would lead to endless troubles.

Maybe sensing Sadie's murderous intent, Amelia, who had just gotten off the plane in Havenbrook City, suddenly felt a chill. She instinctively hugged her arms and looked around but saw nothing unusual.

"You've already safely arrived here. Can you let us go now?" Serena asked anxiously. "Keeping us with you now is useless."

"You're indeed useless," Amelia sneered.

She gave a signal, and a bodyguard immediately snatched the unconscious Mia from Serena's arms.

"No!" Serena shouted, panicking. "Give Mia back to me!"

People around started to look over.

Amelia glared at her coldly. "If you don't want to die, you'd better behave."

"What are you going to do?" Serena asked anxiously. "If you hurt Mia, Sadie won't let you off."

Amelia slapped her hard. "You bitch, dare to threaten me?"

"Let us go and you can leave faster. Isn't that better?" Serena said, covering her swollen face. "Keeping Mia with you draws attention and makes things more dangerous."

"That's none of your concern," Amelia snapped, walking straight to the parking lot.

Serena followed anxiously, pleading in a low voice, "Give Mia to me. I'll hold her. She's not in good health and can't take much more."

"You're really too noisy," Amelia said in annoyance, ordering the bodyguard. "Kill her!"

"Yes," the bodyguard grabbed Serena's hair, ready to drag her away.

Another bodyguard immediately stopped him. "Wait. There are police."

Amelia turned to look. The usually lax security at Havenbrook City airport had a lot of police patrolling today. She felt something was off. Looking around again, she saw no other suspicious figures. If Micah and Sadie's people were ambushed nearby, they should have taken her down by now.

Maybe she was just overthinking it.
