Please Take Me Home, Daddy - Chapter 45: Chapter 45

Mandy scoffed from a corner at how clueless Dora was about the severity of the situation. "Lala! Come here. Do you hear me?" Dora continued.
However, there was still no response.
Feeling something was amiss, Dora grabbed a girl and asked, "Little girl, could you please help me find someone inside? She's about four years old, wearing a blue dress, and is very pretty. Her name is Laura. Could you tell her to meet me at the entrance?"
The girl did not think much. She turned around and went in, loudly shouting Laura's name.
However, no one came even after she shouted for a long time.
The little girl said apologetically, "Miss, I couldn't find that girl. I'm sorry."
Dora paled, realizing something was wrong. She quickly found a staff member and asked, "Can I go in to look for my child? She seems to have gone missing!"
The staff agreed and helped to search as well.
They searched for a long time but did not find Laura.
Dora began to panic.
The staff asked tentatively, "Are you sure the child didn't run out?"
Her heart skipped a beat and she glanced at her milkshake.
She had been waiting at the bar counter nearby, close to the entrance. However, when she returned after buying the milkshake, Laura disappeared.
"Could she have run out because she was worried she couldn't find me?" Dora thought.
"I want to check the surveillance camera," she requested.
Dora's voice trembled, and she raised her phone to record Laura on the surveillance camera.
Sure enough, she found Laura being chased and saw her fighting with Mandy and the others in the ball pit.
Mandy then walked out.
At this time, Laura was still playing in the playground.
Meanwhile, Mandy was having a small meeting with a group of people.
Then a girl walked to Laura and said something. After that, Laura ran out in a hurry.
Coincidentally, she ran opposite from where Dora was buying a milkshake.
Dora suddenly couldn't breathe, an ominous feeling overcoming her. She rushed into the indoor playground without hesitation.
The staff hurriedly stopped her, saying, "Madam, you cannot go in! Only we can. Please speak to us if you have anything to say!"
However, Dora did not listen. She found the girl who talked to Laura and grabbed her fiercely. "What did you say to Lala?" she shouted.
The girl was overcome by guilt, and her eyes welled with tears when she was yelled at.
Mandy remained calm and came forward to defend her friend. "What are you doing? How can you do that to her?"
Dora's eyes reddened, and she nearly lost her patience. "That's right, you too. You're friends, aren't you? What did you say to Lala? Why did she rush out like that? Explain yourselves!"
"You can't even control your child, but you're blaming us? We're just children!" Mandy retorted.
The parents of Mandy and the girl rushed in, pushing Dora aside. "Who said you could touch my daughter?"
Dora showed them the recording. "My child ran out after your daughters talked to her. I want to know the truth! Such despicable mother and daughter, you two must have taken revenge because Lala got the role!" she accused.
Annie's face contorted in anger. She shrilled, "What are you saying? Are you slandering me? How audacious of you to offend the Zimmerman family!"
