The school bus driver had called me seven times before I finally answered, and what she said made me question everything I believed about my family. \u201cMr. Bennett, your son is safe, but I\u2019m not taking him home. Meet me at the police station, and whatever you do, don\u2019t tell your wife.\u201d Before I could ask what had happened, she hung up.<\/h1>\n

Chapter 2<\/p>\n

Detective Collins led me into an interview room while Margaret stayed with Ethan. I told her everything I knew, including how carefully I packed his backpack and how Laura had been handling it that morning. When the detective asked who knew the combination to my gun safe, my stomach twisted.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly Laura and me,\u201d I answered. \u201cThe combination is Ethan\u2019s birthday.\u201d<\/p>\n

She wrote that down without responding.<\/p>\n

An hour later, Laura arrived at the station wearing the purple medical scrubs from the dental office where she worked. She rushed toward Ethan, crying dramatically, but something about his reaction disturbed me. Instead of embracing his mother, he pulled away and searched the room for me.<\/p>\n
