Edith Has Gone Missing

Mike Qian grew restless, knowing that his granddaughter now knew of what has her mother had to go through before she died. It was a secret that he wanted to protect until he dies. But he made a mistake somewhere and now, Edith knew his secret.

As Neil continued to describe what he had seen through the footage, Mike felt his throat dried and his body grew cold. He turned to Neil and stared at him with worry. "Neil, you have to find Edith."

Neil nodded. "Grandpa, you don't have to worry. I will find her."

His hands stretched up to hold Neil's. "You don't understand. There are reasons why I chose not to tell Edith about her mother. I told you that the news would break her, but what I'm most afraid of is that Edith is going to act recklessly."

Neil frowned. "I'm sure that Edith isn't someone who would act hastily."
