Linda quickly realized that someone must have treated her daughter with such gentle care, and she suspected it

was her adoptive mother.

Conflicting emotions welled up within Linda, a mixture of gratitude and a secret hope that the family had been

unkind to Lina. Linda wanted her daughter to come back to her without hesitation, to call her “mom” without

reservation.

Linda took a deep breath, trembling with fear at her own dark thoughts. She struggled to speak, her voice

trembling. “Pammy… You should go now… I need to rest.”

Lina froze momentarily, then carefully helped Linda onto the bed, tucking her in and replacing her slippers with

comfortable silk ones. She smiled through teary eyes and gently reminded her, “I’ll be back when it’s time for your

medicine! And I’ll give you a special reward if you get the window count right!”

With a teary smile, Linda asked, her voice choked with emotion, “Will I really get better?”

“Dr. Ivy said you will, without a doubt.”

“Pammy…” Linda reached out and grasped her daughter’s hands tightly.

Lina’s heart tightened at the sight of Linda’s frail and cold hands. “Don’t worry,” she said softly, her smile

comforting. “You will get better, I promise.”

Linda soon fell asleep, but her rest was troubled by nightmares and cold sweats. Worried, Lina asked Aunt Evelyn to

keep an eye on her while she went to the kitchen to bake.

The ingredients were ready, and Lina used the most advanced equipment available. Although she had never helped

in the kitchen before, she found a tutorial online and followed the steps diligently.

Making even the simplest cake required great effort, but Lina managed to bake a small one according to the recipe.

With a sigh of relief, she put the cakes in the oven and wiped the sweat from her forehead, feeling a sense of

accomplishment.

The aroma of butter soon filled the kitchen. Lina made two cakes, one for Linda and the other for Melissa. Just as

she was about to call Melissa, she noticed someone standing at the kitchen door.

Startled, she turned her head and found Nicholas looking at her with gentle eyes.

“Um…” He hesitated for a moment before addressing her as Lina. “I’m sorry… Did I startle you by standing here?”

Lina smiled and shook her head.

Nicholas held the model she had made in his hands, overcome with emotion and struggling to find the right words.

All he managed was a silly smile.

“Did you give this to your mother?” he asked.

Lina nodded. “Mm-hmm.”

“And the cake too?”

Lina surprised him by handing him a piece of cake with a smile. “Try it!”

His eyes widened, and he straightened up, nervously wiping his hands on his clothes before accepting the cake with

utmost seriousness.

“Mmph, delicious… So delicious!” he exclaimed, choking up a little.

He couldn’t believe that a piece of cake could bring tears to his eyes.

Lina bit her lip, feeling a surge of warmth spreading within her.

“Oh, right! Look at me. I got carried away with eating and forgot why I came!” He chuckled. “I saw the model you

made in the room. It’s amazing! Your school transfer process was completed two days ago. I also saw your

achievement in Jangasas. You’re ranked at the top.

“Lina, the Thompson Group has a project to construct a new film studio. I think you would be perfect for it… Would

you be willing to take it on?”
