CHAPTER 72

  Stefan

  Two days had passed since Kara disappeared. I called Scott hundreds of times, but he didn't answer. He turned off his phone a few hours after taking Kara away. Unfortunately, Kara didn't have a phone because it broke in the accident. But I know she wouldn't answer even if she had one.

  I could hardly rest thinking about her. Was she okay? Why didn't she let me take care of her? Why couldn't Kara see I was trying to help and protect her? Were our children safe? I felt angry with her. But I also wanted to hug and kiss her. I knew I shouldn't think of Kara romantically, but I couldn't help it. Sara hugged me as I slept. She volunteered to be with me in the past few days. I couldn't distrust Sara because she had no reason to betray me. I admit I wanted to distrust her, but it made little sense.

  I haven't been to work at the company in the last few days because it has focused me on Kara. Sara has taken care of the company. But only for a few hours.
