Two guards grabbed me.
Ethan’s face was grim, disappointed.
“Do you know Tiffany has depression?”

“You won’t go anywhere until you apologize!”
He softened his tone.
“Sarah, listen. Apologize to Tiffany, take off
your makeup, apologize to your dad and
Tiffany.”
I screamed, struggling. “Ethan! This will kill
Lily!”
“If anything happens to Lily, I’ll destroy you!!”
Ethan knew Lily was everything to me.
Seeing my reaction, he paused.
Tiffany glanced at me, softly saying.
“Sarah, you hired actors, but don’t you have
any sense of proportion?”
Ethan, already hesitant, was convinced.
He said lightly, “Tiffany’s right.”
Tiffany smiled triumphantly.
Despair consumed me, I knelt, crying.
“Ethan, please, please! That’s Lily
Unmoved, a siren wailed.
Wooo–wooo–wooo

A police car sped past. Hope surged; the
police were here!
Ethan’s eyes narrowed, he grabbed my wrist.
“Why did you call the police? Sarah, your
prank went too far!”
He still thought it was a prank.
Two minutes later, my phone rang.
The police who arrived.
“Hello, is this Miss Sarah?”
“We’ve apprehended the suspect, but your
sister is seriously injured…”
It was on speakerphone. Ethan heard.
His composure vanished.
“Sarah…”

He realized something, panicked.
“What’s going on?”
