Back in the manor.
Simon and Rosa looked at each other, the wall clock already pointed its fingers to 11:00. It's one hour before midnight.
Rosa was certain, that the sleeping medicine that she put into Sofia's milk already took effect. "Husband, come with me. Let's check Sofia's room!" she said.
"Ok," Simon responded.
The couple exited the room and walked in the hallway going to Sofia's room.
They stopped in front of the door and Rosa inserted the spare key on the doorknob. Done, she pushes the door open.
The light was still shining brightly inside the room.
The couple was shocked to see an empty bed!
Simon rushed to the window after seeing the rope. "What hell is this!?" he exclaimed. He looked down and he knew already what had happened.
Rosa placed her hands on her chest trying to slow down the rapid breathing of her heart. "Sofia is gone!" she exclaimed and began crying hysterically.
