The evening was filled with the sweet sound of laughter and music, as the girls and Bella played and danced together. Jr, Alex, and Joshua, however, were engaged in a more serious conversation in Jr's study room.
Alex spoke up, his voice low and thoughtful. "Can you hear the laughter downstairs? It brings the house alive."
Jr nodded, his eyes distant, lost in thought. He remained quiet for a moment before responding. "They deserve happiness and love. They've been alone for far too long."
Joshua's eyes narrowed, his expression serious. "Jr, what will you tell your family about them?" he asked, his voice curious.
Jr's jaw clenched, his eyes flashing with determination. "I won't tell them anything yet. I'm still looking for the girls' families, but so far, it's been a dead-end. It seems they were kidnapped from neighboring countries and trafficked here in Greenwood."
Alex's eyes widened, his face pale. "That's horrific," he whispered, his voice trembling with emotion.
Jr's expression turned grim. "And Bella, she'll be seeing her family soon. I'll take her home once everything is settled and the culprits are brought to justice."
Alex nodded, his eyes locked onto Jr's. He handed Jr a file, his voice low. "Look at this."
Jr's eyes scanned the file, his face growing darker with each passing moment. The file contained information about missing girls from neighboring countries, and some of the girls had been spotted in underground bars where they were forced into prostitution.
Jr's eyes flashed with anger, his jaw clenched. "This is disgusting," he growled, his voice low and menacing. "We need to find these girls and bring them home."
Alex and Joshua nodded in agreement, their faces set with determination. They knew that they had a long and difficult road ahead of them, but they were ready to fight for justice and bring hope to those who had lost it.
