Nancy was beyond exhausted. She had been with the police for hours telling them everything she overheard, seen, and could remember. It was still early in the morning and they were lucky that most of the people in the building were security guards. Nancy sighed and looked over at Joe. They were waiting for Frank to finish up with the police, "have you talked to Anna?"

Joe walked over to Nancy and sit down beside her, "no, not yet. I will in a bit. How are you really?"

"I want to know what all has happened while I have been away and I want to see my daughter."

"Frank has been miserable without you and I am going to suggest we fly to London till they find this guy."

Nancy nodded and shivered. She hated the thought of him coming back and grabbing someone else, "agreed. How bad was Frank?"

Joe sighed and thought how the best way to answer that was. Nancy raised her eyebrow at him, "full truth, Joe."

Joe took a deep breath and looked at Nancy, "he was very anger and violent. I will be replacing quite a few things in my house that he has broken. He yelled at Anna and came close to hurting her." Joe stopped and looked at Nancy who had tears down her face. She looked at him, "continue. How was he with Lizzy? I bet she is so big now. Do you have any photos?"

Joe handed her his phone after he pulled up the photos, "scroll through them. We tried to video tape and take as many photos as we could." Nancy started crying as she looked through them, "my little girl is so much bigger. Kendall is getting big and walking all over the place." Joe smiled at her and Nancy looked at him, "why is Frank in no pictures and everyone else is?"

"He went through spurts with Liz. For the most part, Anna and George have taken care of her. He got to the point where she would cry and reach for him but he ignored her. I don't know if it was too painful or what." Nancy looked mortified. She never thought Frank would react that way. Joe continued, "before we got the warning about the bomb, dad was going to have Frank checked in to get help. Anna and I have custody of Elizabeth right now, he signed the papers."

"What? You mean we don't even have custody of her right now because of Frank."

"Nan, please calm down. Dad was the one who had the papers drawn up. Mom and him were worried about Frank's outburst. It was a last resort to protect her."

"I don't even know what to think. I thought I knew my husband but I guess I was wrong." She said to Joe with tears pouring down her face. "You do know me Nan," Frank said as he rushed to her side to try to hold her. She pushed him away, "we have a lot to talk about." He bit his lip and nodded. Joe quietly dismissed himself.

Joe regretted what he told Nancy but she had a right to know the full truth. He walked outside the station and went to his dad, "I want us all in London by tonight." Fenton nodded at his son, "you, Frank, and Nancy will be on a flight this afternoon. Carson and I will stay behind. Chet and I are working on this warehouse that Frank was obsessed with. The police are going to raid it."

"You both need to come with us."

"This isn't open for discussion. Now go call Anna."

Joe went to argue with his dad but decided against it. He nodded and walked away so he could call Anna in a quieter spot. He pulled his phone out and listened to it ring. A sleepy tired voice whispered, "Joe?"

"Baby, how are you?"

"How are you is the better question. I'm okay. I love love love this place."

"I'm so glad. I will be there tonight."

"What?"

"We got Nan and disarmed the bomb. We will be there tonight." Joe heard his wife sobbing on the other end. After a minute passed and she didn't say anything, Joe spoke again, "baby, this is good news. Why are you crying?"

"I'm just so… happy. Relieved, I can't wait to see you. Can I speak to Nancy?"

"Hang on and I will get her. I love you."

"I love you."

Joe hurried inside to where Nancy was. "Nan, Anna would like to talk to you." Joe knew he was interrupting something because Nancy was in tears and so was Frank. She stood up and took the phone walking away. Joe gave Frank a look and he just shook his head.

Nancy walked down the hall, "Anna."

"Oh Nancy, it's so good to hear your voice. How are you sissy?"

"I'm okay. I am not hurt just shaken. How is Elizabeth? How are you? How is Kendall?"

"Elizabeth is okay. She will be happy to see you. She is sleeping upstairs. Kendall is doing wonderful. I can't wait for you to see them both. They have gotten so big. I have news for you but maybe I should wait till you are here."

"No, tell me now. I am so tired of missing everything."

"I'm pregnant with twins. We still don't know the sex yet." Nancy started crying and Anna spoke quickly, "Oh Nan, I didn't mean to make you upset. I just have so much to share and tell you."

"I am so happy for you. I'm sorry that Frank lost it with you."

"Nancy Drew Hardy, don't. It is fine. This has been hard on everyone, especially him. The girls have been struggling. Everyone has, Fenton was in the hospital. Biff got shot. We have all been through hell."

"I'm so sorry. I caused this, and they haven't caught the guys who are responsible."

"Don't Nancy. You aren't at fault. You tried to help every step of the way. You went in place of your daughter. Don't apologize for something you have no control of. I thought you guys were coming tonight what do you mean he is still out there?"

"They didn't catch him. I think the police are working on it but we are coming there. No one else is going to be caught. The police can handle this and I think Chet is trying to help."

"Oh, well are you okay?"

"I really am okay. I promise. Just ready to see everyone, I better go. Frank and Joe are waving me over. I love you sissy."

"I love you."

Nancy pressed end and handed Joe his cellphone. Frank went to hold Nancy and she pulled away from him, "don't. When are we leaving?" Frank hung his head, "in a little while."
