Sadie crouched down and gently stroked Averi's hair, her voice enveloping him like a warm hug. "What's this, Averi?" "It's tonic soup, Mommy." Averi held up the tray proudly, his eyes shining. "Mommy, try it! It's really good." Sadie's heart sank. She knew all too well who had sent the soup through Averi. And she understood precisely why Noah had done so. It was his tactic to soften her, to break her resolve.
Taking the tray from Averi's hands, Sadie set it on the nearby table without tasting it.
"Averi, Mommy's not hungry right now. Why don't you go play for a bit?” Her voice was gentle, yet there was a firmness to her words.

Averi scampered out of the room with youthful energy. Sadie watched him leave, her smile slowly fading. Turning back to the table, she picked up the bowl of soup, her face expressionless. She knew this soup was Noah's way of reaching out, a siren song of sorts.
The next morning, Sadie slowly opened her eyes. Sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains, casting dappled light across the room. She shifted, immediately feeling a deep ache in her body. Struggling to sit up, she looked around. The bedroom was opulent yet alien. Her heart sank with each ticking second.
She threw off the covers, rose from the bed, and walked to the window. Outside, a meticulously maintained garden unfolded-lush and vibrant, filled with the cheerful chirping of birds. Despite the idyllic scene, Sadie felt an intense sense of suffocation.
Feeling like a bird trapped in a gilded cage, Sadie turned and walked to the door, touching the handle. It was locked, just as she expected. Her face drained of color.

Suddenly, a faint noise at the door caught her attention. Sadie's head snapped up. The door slowly creaked open.
Breck appeared, his expression unreadable. "Good morning, Mrs. Wall." Sadie eyed him with suspicion. "What do you want?" "Mr. Wall instructedto inform you that Averi has been taken to kindergarten,” Breck said flatly.
A chill ran through Sadie as she processed this information. Unmoving, Breck continued, "Mrs. Wall, Mr. Wall has also arranged for a car to take you to the studio." Sadie was stunned. She gazed at Breck, her expression one of disbelief, questioning if she had heard him correctly.
"What did you just say?" she questioned, her voice laced with confusion.

Sadie struggled to make sense of the situation. She had braced herself for Noah to confine her indefinitely, using Averi as leverage to break her spirit. But now he was allowing her to leave for the studio? What was going on?
What could Noah possibly be planning? Her thoughts swirled with uncertainty and suspicion. She couldn't decipher his thoughts or understand his true motives. "Mrs. Wall, you may leave now," Breck stated, his voice unchanging.
Sadie gave him a searching look, her expression a mix of confusion and caution After a brier pause, she took a step forward and followed Breck out of the room and down the stairs.
Outside, a black car waited in front of the villa, the driver standing by respectfully, holding the door open for her. Sadie inhaled deeply and slid into the car. As the vehicle pulled away from Myrtlewood Estate, the landscape outside blurred past her window, her mind racing yet feeling empty.
