Chapter 10 - Little Clara Recalls How She Found The Secret Papers
Little Clara skipped out of the sunroom holding the housekeeper’s hand, her tear-streaked face now bright.
“Mommy! You’re finally out of the big dark room!” Clara cried, running across the foyer to hug her.
Elena dropped to her knees, embracing her daughter tightly with overwhelming tears of joy and relief.
“I missed you so much, my sweet angel; I never stopped thinking about you every single day,” Elena sobbed.
“I found the papers in Aunt Victoria’s desk when she left the safe open last Tuesday,” Clara explained proudly.
“That’s how I knew where she hid the key to your room in the basement corridor,” the little girl added.
David knelt beside them, wrapping his arms around both of his girls in a warm, unbreakable family circle.
“You saved your mother, Clara; you are the bravest little girl in the entire world,” David praised softly.
