Jacob understood the difficulty of the situation. After a moment's thought, he suggested, "How about this? I'|| sketch a rough outline, and you can fill in the details with my descriptions." Kyle regarded him, and asked, "You don't remember what she looks like, right?" Jacob's expression twisted with pain. "I always thought I would remember her forever, but when I try to recall her face now, all I can see are flashes of her smile and her running towardand calling out to me. But her actual features? No matter how hard I try, I can't conjure up a clear image." "Then you won't be able to draw it yourself," Kyle said as he shook his head. "Don't beat yourself up over it. It's been over a decade. Forgetting is quite normal, especially with painful memories. Our minds tend to protect us from hurt. Remembering her brings you pain, so you'll slowly forget those memories." Kyle patted Jacob's shoulder.

"But if she were to stand before you again, you would recognize her instantly. People grow and change, especially girls. It's not a big deal. Just describe however much you remember. Focus on her basic shape and outline, which are the most important. Also, any distinct facial features, like whether she has moles, birthmarks, or if her eyebrows had any particular shape. You should also tellif she was slim or plump." Jacob turned to Rafael and Carissa. "You two should go out. You're both on leave today, so you should go and do what you feel like doing." Rafael immediately took Carissa's hand and stood up, pulling her toward the door. "Let's go to Richspire Peak." Carissa looked up at the gloomy sky. "But it looks like it's going to rain." Rafael was annoyed. If it rained, they wouldn't be able to see the golden sun rays on Richspire Peak. He had been planning this for so long, and now, it seemed it might fall through again.

"Why don't we visit Leona instead?" Carissa suggested. "Rainy days tend to be a bit dreary. We can even liven things up a bit. Let's bring Mother along, and send someone to get Kiera. What do you think?" Seeing the excitement in her eyes, Rafael stifled his impulse to complain about bringing Helen along. "Okay. As long as it makes you happy." Helen rarely stepped out of her courtyard these days. Violet used to take her on outings whenever she had free time, but she was now mostly in Leona's courtyard. Helen was starting to feel a bit bored.

The prospect of visiting Leona filled Helen with delight. She instructed Gillian and Mindy to prepare an abundance of supplements, not caring whether Leona could even finish them. Helen's only thought was to bring as much as possible.

"To be honest, I'm not fond of Heather," Helen confessed, "but Leona is such a sweet girl. She's always been kind and lovable. After everything she's been through, it just breaks my heart. And that poor baby... With a father like that the baby didn't even get a chance to experience the world. It's truly heart-wrenching." Her voice caught as she spoke. It was a mother's instinct to despise the cruelty of the world, and Helen couldn't understand how Heather could be so cold-hearted.

Gillian interjected gently, "Lady Helen, you mustn't mention such things in front of Lady Leona. We wouldn't want to upset her and make her cry." Helen shot her a sharp glance. "Do you think I'm a fool? Why would I kick a puppy when it's down? What do you takefor? Do you think I don't have a sense of decency?" Gillian chuckled, and offered a flattering reply, "Of course not. You're always kind and compassionate, especially towards Lady Leena. You'd never bring such painful memories or offer shallow comfort. You'd just chat about everyday things to put her at ease." Helen nodded, but in her heart, she was disappointed. Didn't that mean she couldn't share those comforting words she had prepared? What a pity! Helen wanted nothing more than for Leona to move past her pain and look toward the future.

Sensing Helen's hesitation, Gillian clarified, "Few people can comprehend what Lady Leona has endured. Lady Carissa has also told everyone to leave Lady Leona in no

peace so she could take her tto heal. Now that several days haven passed, it's tfor sin happy times. Otherwise, it could suffocate her spirit." "I understand. Let's go. They're getting into the carriage already," Helen said briskly.

Leona's condition had improved significantly. With Alana and Leah's company, Leona was able to take light walks in the courtyard.

Violet spent the majority of her days here. It wasn't out of worry since Alana and Leah were present and no one could harm Leona now. It was simply because Violet felt helpless in her inability to support Leona. Violet's heart ached for Leona, and so she visited as much as possible. X
