The Carter mansion was quiet when Emma heard the stroller wheels moving.
She looked up.
The baby stroller was rolling down the grand staircase.
Emma ran toward it.
She reached the bottom just in time and immediately lifted the baby into her arms.
The baby started crying.
Emma dropped to her knees, holding him tightly against her chest.
Seconds later, Daniel Carter rushed into the foyer.
His mother Eleanor was right behind him.
Daniel stared at the stroller.
Then at Emma holding his son.
What happened?
Emma looked shaken.
I dont know.
The stroller was upstairs.
Daniel turned toward the staircase.
Who left it there?
Eleanor answered immediately.
Emma did.
Emma looked up.
No.
I didnt.
Daniel stared between them.
Then another voice came from the hallway.
I saw what happened.
Everyone turned.
Daniels teenage daughter Sophie was standing there.
And she was looking directly at Eleanor.
