He returned to his office and Alex who had taken his place asked," Did you find her?" "You were right. She took all her things and left me this note. I want you to track all the CCTV cameras that are placed on the road. I want to know the direction her car left to," he said. After reading the note, Alex thought hard before saying," If she took her things and said that you won't find her then it means that she left Sun City and the first place we have to check is the airport." Thinking about it, Ethan said," But where could she have gone? I doubt she would go back to Elfraine." "It's very simple. We can check that at the airport."
With that, they headed to the airport and when they reached, Alex spoke with the officials. After much convincing, the two were taken to the control room where they saw that Bella Edwards checked in at a half past midday, her destination being Wingston.
Ethan was surprised because he had never heard her mention about knowing anyone in Wingston. Why did she go there? On checking the flight hours, they realized that the plane had already landed. Alex thanked them and they came out when Ethan declared that he was flying to Wingston there and then. "Come on, Ethan. You're forgetting about your daughter. Just stay calm and let my men look for her. I will inform you as soon as I get something," said Alex. Ethan thought hard before accepting and he said," Make sure you give me immediate results or else I'm flying there myself." With that, he went back home to meet Leah. He couldn't believe that he had almost forgotten about his daughter because of Bella. Just what did that woman do to him?

Back to Blue City, Graham reached home and found Dylan jumping up and down in excitement and when his eyes saw him, he ran to him and said," Papa! I wrote an essay and Teacher Stella praised me. I was the best." "Ohh! Such a good boy. What do you want Papa to reward you?" he asked and after thinking, Dylan said," Let's go with Mama and eat ice cream at McDonald's." "Right away little champ," he said and went to prepare for the evening walk.
In half an hour, the three hit the road to get Dylan's favorite ice cream at McDonald's. While in the car, Graham contemplated on telling Luna about the call Bella made and he decided to do it on their way back. They weren't back to speaking terms yet and he had long concluded that Luna wasn't a woman to joke with.
When they reached, they bought the ice cream and snacks before sitting down to enjoy. While at the table, Dylan was narrating how he wrote an essay about the three of them and in it he included how is Papa had angered his Mama making the two dumbfounded. "Dylan who told you that?" Luna asked. "No one I saw it myself. You don't speak with Papa and you also don't sleep with him anymore. Teacher Stella told me to take the three of us out and then you will forgive him," he said innocently and Luna couldn't believe it. Did she take it so far that even their son got affected in the process. She glanced at Graham who gave her the 'I told you' look. She returned her eyes to Dylan and smiled as she said," No, my baby. I'm not mad at Papa. He was just busy and I didn't want to disturb him."
Dylan nodded in understanding and he continued eating his ice cream. A while later, he said he wanted to go to the restroom and Luna offered to take him. A long while later, Graham noticed that they had taken so long and he decided to go and look for them.
On coming back, the two didn't find Graham where they left him and Luna assumed that he might be in the parking lot. On reaching, she noticed that he was not there either and she got out her phone to call him. It was then that she noticed that the lot was unusually quiet. Her eyes scanned the area and she caught sight of a suspicious man who seemed to be coming towards them. She attempted to leave but she noticed another man who had been behind them and she got startled. He snatched her phone and smashed it on the floor and she held her son protectively.
"Give the boy to me," he demanded and she immediately shook her head in refusal as tears formed in her eyes.
The one at the back approached her and removed her hands off the boy giving this one a chance to take him and Luna screamed with all her might before he placed his hands on her mouth. The other one did the same to Dylan to prevent him from screaming and carried him away. Luckily, she saw Graham charging towards him and when the one holding her noticed it, he pushed her against the wall and got a baseball bat before running to attack Graham who had gone to save the boy.
