Outside the house…
Zara was still busy on the phone. "Is there any chance of his survival?"
"I can't say anything." A sigh broke through. "But I still hope he escaped before the impact. Okay, I have to go now. Don't worry about me. I'm fine. I'll return once everything is settled here."
"Okay… Take care of yourself," Zara whispered before the line went dead.
Slowly, she lowered the phone from her ear, her face pale, her mind reeling from the devastating news. "How did this happen?"
She shook herself slightly, forcing her steps forward. Pushing open the toy house door, she spotted Zane inside, kneeling on the carpet and playing with his blocks. But Riya was nowhere in sight.
"Where is she?" Zara muttered under her breath. "Did she leave already?"
Curiosity pushing her, she stepped back into the house, her eyes scanning the hallway. Then she heard her voice coming from the kitchen. She turned and spotted her standing near Mrs. Jules.
