"Don't do this," Claire pleaded, her voice cracking with desperation. "Please, let us go."

The man ignored her, his gaze cold and unyielding. "Move. Now."

With no other choice, they complied, their hearts heavy with fear and uncertainty. As they were led out of the office, Claire's mind raced. They were walking straight into her father's trap, and the only way out was to confront him head-on.
