She panicked and started walking forward, speaking as she went:
"Nathan Johnson, I'm on the road to the southern suburbs. Please send someone to pick me up, I need to see Ose Owen!"
"OK." Nathan Johnson agreed without hesitation.
His efficiency was swift, as within minutes after Crossley hung up, two black cars appeared before her.
And twenty minutes later, Crossley had arrived at the Villa House.
Ose Owen was not home, and naturally Raleigh wasn't either. Crossley asked Nanny Scott about Raleigh's recent health, and was relieved to hear she was healthy.
She waited in the living room's sofa until seven in the evening, when she saw the bodyguards quickly entering the hall, lining up neatly.
Crossley got up and then saw Ose Owen enter holding the little girl's hand.
Today, little Raleigh was wearing an off-white dress, with a pink hat, white tights underfoot, pink leather boots, and carrying a sky-blue bear backpack. She looked like a little angel, so adorable.
