80% + +8 Pearls It was a gloomy day, the sky heavy with clouds. Winston had snuck out of the Ginger family estate to feed a stray puppy.
But what he didn't expect- Was danger falling from the sky.
He was kidnapped.
Reading this, Jean couldn't help but widen her eyes in shock. She muttered under her breath, "Kidnapped?" She had been through that kind of trauma herself... It was a harrowing experience.
She hadn't imagined Winston had gone through the sthing-at such a young age.

Dalton: "You think I'd make this up? I'm telling you, your brother's had it rough..." Jean stayed quiet, letting Dalton continue his story.
The kidnappers were probably after money. They saw Winston sneaking out from a mansion that looked like a palace, dressed head to toe in designer labels-and they got greedy.
A kid that age couldn't possibly fight off an adult.
Winston was shoved into a dirty, chaotic van, tied up hand and foot.
He couldn't do anything-just lie there helplessly as the van sped away, carrying him farther and farther from home, until they reached a remote, desolate stretch of countryside.
The man who took him was tall and hot-tempered.

That's what Winston believed with all his heart.
But reality hit harder than any blow.
When the kidnapper called Sienna, all he got was endless ringing.
Winston's mother didn't even pick up.
To a young child, that was an earth-shattering blow.

Getting no answer had wasted his time.
Still, since Winston had recited his father's number, the man gave it a shot.
But- Matheo's phone was turned off.
Strike after strike. Every call unanswered. Winston's hope crumbled into dust.

The only person you can count on-is yourself.
