Chapter 313


    Rita said with a pout, "Didn''t we agreest time not to get mad at Maka anymore?"


    Ian held his sister''s hand as they entered the ssroom together.


    Maka''s surgery had been scheduled. She was nervous and scared, and evening to see them


    wouldn''t change that. She should go find Elijah for somefort.


    Three in the afternoon.


    Elijah received a call from Elisa.


    As soon as the call connected, he heard Elisa crying, "Maka is missing again! The bodyguards and I


    have been searching for over an hour around Silverleaf Ridge, but we can''t find her!"


    "What are you doing in Silverleaf Bay?" Elijah grabbed his car keys and hurried towards the door.


    "Maka came to school this morning and kept saying she wanted to find Ian. I told her no, but she


    threw a tantrum. She refused to eat or drink. She''s never been like this before. I had no choice but to


    take her to find Ian," Elisa sobbed uncontrobly.


    Ever since Maka had her surgery, she became more self-conscious and harder to manage!


    "So you took her to see Ian?" Elijah mentioned the child''s name and felt a jolt in his heart, "Could she


    be hiding with him?"


    "No! I took Maka to the kindergarten to meet Ian and Rita, they only talked for a bit before going


    back to their ssroom," Elisa told the truth, "After we left the kindergarten, she wanted to go y in


    the residential area, so I took her in. But in the blink of an eye, she disappeared!"


    Elisa cried, gasping for breath.


    Elijah frowned and said, "Don''t cry for now. I''ll be right there! She should still be nearby."


    Elisa choked up, "Maka was always well-behaved, she''s just hiding because she''s scared of the


    surgery."


    "I know," Elijah had spent a long timeforting Makast night before she finally fell asleep.


    He didn''t want her to suffer, but the surgery would make her healthier, so it had to be done. He didn’t


    want her to be called a dummy anymore.


    In the evening.


    Violette drove back to the neighborhood and saw several guards at the entrance, with a long police


    cordon and many onlookers.


    She furrowed her brows. Was something big happening?


    She quickly parked the car and rushed home. Please, let it not be her two kids in trouble!


    Opening the vi''s front door, she saw the two children ying in the living room, a stark contrast to the


    tense atmosphere outside.


    "Good job, both of you, staying at home and behaving yourselves," Violette kissed each child on the


    cheek.

    Rita said calmly, "Nothing to worry about. Maka''s just hiding, and they''re searching for her."


    Violette''s brain exploded.


    "Maka is hiding in our neighborhood?" Violette asked.


    "Maybe? I told her to hide, but I didn''t say to hide in our neighborhood," Rita pouted, looking upset,


    "What if that bad guyes to our house looking for Maka? I don''t want to see him."


    Violette became anxious, "Did you two hide Maka in our house again?!"


    Ian and Rita shook their heads vigorously.


    "No. She hid herself, and we don''t know where she went either."


    Violette took a deep breath, calming herself down quickly, "As long as she''s not in our house, it''s fine.


    I''m going to cook, you two don''t run around. If someone rings the doorbel"


    Before she could finish, the doorbell rang.
