The judge and lawyers present were all at a loss.

How could they proceed with the hearing if the plaintiff wasn't there? Everyone had assumed the defendant wouldn't show up, but the reality turned out to be quite the opposite.

Lucas climbed into his car in a cheerful mood. Desmond asked, "Mr. Tudor, where are we heading?" "Arthur Town," Lucas replied.

"Understood." Desmond immediately realized that Lucas was planning to find Aveline.

Tsk, tsk, tsk...

The court session had failed, and Lucas seemed to be in high spirits, clearly eager to gloat in front of Aveline.

The weather was clear that day, and even the stray dogs on the roadside looked pleasing to Lucas.

Juliet received a call from her subordinates, and her face darkened when she heard their report they hadn't been able to enter the orphanage at all.

"How is it possible that so many of you couldn't get in? What's going on?" One of the men replied, "Just as we were about to enter, two men showed up. They were incredibly skilled and took us all down. We didn't dare fight back, so we had to retreat." "Useless!" Juliet snapped, her expression growing even darker.

She angrily hung up, a cold, menacing glint flashing in her eyes.

That old hag Hilda had dared to run away! Juliet regretted not getting rid of her when she had the chance. She should have dealt with her the moment she saw her! "Knock, knock!" At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Juliet whipped around, eyes full of suspicion.

Gernard's gentle voice cfrom the other side, "Juliet, it's me." Hearing her brother's familiar voice, Juliet quickly composed herself, rushed over to open the door, and immediately threw herself into Gernard's arms.

"Gernard..." Juliet whispered, clinging to Gernard tightly.

He paused for a moment, surprised by her reaction, then quickly asked, "Juliet, what's wrong?" Juliet held onto him even tighter. "I had a nightmare... It was so terrifying. Can you stay with me, please?" Gernard gently patted her back in comfort. "It's alright, it was just a dream. I'm here." Gradually, Juliet's agitation began to settle. She then asked, "Gernard, did you cto seefor something?" Gernard replied, "I'm planning to make a trip to Arthur Town. There's sand being developed there" that looks promising, and I want to check it out in person." At the mention of Arthur Town, Juliet's eyes flickered with a hint of interest before she quickly responded, "I want to go too. If you leave, I be so bored here in Cloudflare City all by over Seeing her look so pitiful, Gernard couldn't help but smile indulgently. "Alright, you can cwith me." "You're the best, Gernard!" Juliet beamed, her mood lifting instantly.

Aveline slept until the afternoon, and when she opened her eyes, the unfamiliar surroundings made everything feel a bit surreal. She sat up, glanced at the time, and let out a heavy sigh.

She opened the door just as Zachary was walking over. Seeing that shel was awake, he smiled and asked, Π "How was your rest?" Aveline nodded. "It was good and peaceful." The children didn't make any noise at all.

Zachary explained, "I took the kids out to play, so you'd have plenty of tto rest." "Thank you," Aveline said gratefully.

Zachary waved it off. "No need to thank me. The kids loved the things you brought them they even want to give you something in return." Aveline looked a bit surprised. "Givesomething?" He nodded. "Yes, you'll see soon enough. Are you hungry? Want to eat something?" Aveline shook her head. "I want to check on her." By "her," she was, of course, referring to Hilda.
