Vivian felt very embarrassed around her, as she couldn’t help but think of the image of waking up in bed with Carson that day. Although she later realized when she got home that nothing had actually happened between them, the thought that they might have kissed and hugged made her feel utterly ashamed. 

These days, Carson would come to pick her up whenever he was free, but she always avoided him. Since that night, they hadn’t exchanged a single word. 

After they finished eating, Grace wanted to go for a walk, so they took Austin for a stroll in the park. 

Grace was genuinely curious about the situation between Vivian and Carson and couldn’t help but ask, “Vivian, after Carson picked you up that day, did he do anything inappropriate?” 

Grace felt quite awkward asking this question. 

Vivian quickly waved her hands in denial. “No, nothing happened between us!“ 

Grace let out a sigh of relief. “That’s good.” 

They walked to a bench by the park and sat down. After a while, Grace couldn’t help but say, “Vivian, if Carson has done anything that troubles you, you can tell me.” 

Vivian scratched the back of her head and changed the subject. “Grace, I think I ate a bit too much. Let’s sit down and rest for a while before we continue, okay?” 

Grace thought that Vivian might be too embarrassed to talk, so she didn’t bring up the matter of Carson again. 

After sitting on a park bench for a while, Grace decided to go to the nearby restroom and asked Vivian to keep an eye on Austin. 

Austin was already asleep. Vivian pinched her little cheek. 

Just then, a little boy ran over. “Miss, my ball fell into the water. Can you help me get it out?” 

Vivian looked in the direction the little boy was pointing. The ball had indeed fallen into the pond, and the little boy’s arms were not long enough to reach it. 

She glanced at Austin. “Okay, wait a moment. Can you help me watch over the little girl?” 

The little boy obediently nodded his head. 

Vivian walked to the edge of the pond, hooked one hand around a willow tree by the pond, and stretched her other hand to retrieve the ball from the water. 

There was a gentle breeze in the park, and the ball was slightly blown further away by the wind. 

She broke off a branch and managed to retrieve the ball. 

“Yay! Miss, you are awesome! The ball is back! Thank you!” The little boy stood on the bank, cheering with joy. 

Vivian handed the ball to him and returned to the bench, only to find the stroller empty. 

Austin was gone. 

Vivian’s face turned pale, and she quickly looked around the park, but all she could see were two elderly people and a few children playing. There was no one else around.

Just then, Grace came back–from the restroom and saw Vivian’s ashen face. She asked, “Vivian, what’s wrong?” 

Vivian’s voice trembled uncontrollably as she spoke. “Grace… the baby… the baby is gone. I’m so sorry…

Grace thought she had heard wrong, and her expression suddenly froze. She glanced at the stroller, and her legs buckled. 

For a moment, her mind went blank, and her lips lost all color. 

“I’m so sorry, Grace. I… I’ll go look for him right away!” 

Vivian was already crying in fear. The child had disappeared on her watch. If she hadn’t gone to help the little boy retrieve the ball, the child wouldn’t have been taken. 

And where was that little boy now? 

Vivian looked around but couldn’t find the boy who had asked for her help earlier. 

Grace didn’t dare to waste a moment and rushed out of the park desperately searching for the child on the busy streets.
