Nala stuttered and couldn't explain clearly; she simply kept crying. "She's my aunt, and she's a bit fierce," she finally

managed to say.

Elijah embraced his daughter, gently patting her back. "You're doing well, Nala. Take your time. How was she tough

with you?"

But, no matter how they probed, Nala couldn't express the full story. She was bewildered. Why did Lena, who was

usually gentle and kind, suddenly change and look at her angrily? Did Lena dislike her now because she was sick?

Nala burst into tears, even coughing due to her weakened condition. Elijah swiftly carried her back to her room.

Doctors and nurses didn't delay, immediately examining her.

Kasey stood disoriented outside, leaning against the wall. She wanted to cry, but the tears wouldn't come.

After a while, Elijah emerged. He looked at her with a hint of pity. He patted her shoulder, and they exchanged

glances before tightly embracing each other.

"Elijah, did I do something wrong?"

"No," Elijah reassured her.

He understood that Kasey had acted out of maternal love, even if it had led to irrational actions.

"I still find Sasha very suspicious," Elijah murmured. He glanced at his feet, his thoughts consumed by the past few

days. A question loomed in his mind.

Sasha's mother was Krystal, a human trafficker. So, who was Lena's mother involved in human trafficking?

Elijah bit his lip. He felt like he was navigating a maze with no clear exit.

His phone rang. "Mr. Chriss, everything's been arranged."

"How's it going?"

"The prison has responded. You can visit Ms. Mosley next weekend."

Elijah ended the call, knowing that next weekend could unravel all the mysteries.

After persistent efforts and persuasion, Chris finally moved into Lena's apartment.

One day, when Chris wasn't home, Lina paid an unexpected visit, catching Lena off guard.

"What's the matter?" Lina smiled as she brought bags into the apartment. "Why are you looking at me like that?

Don't you recognize me?"

Lena awkwardly smiled and quickly closed the door. She followed Lina, but the latter headed straight to wash her

hands in the bathroom. Lena didn't get a chance to stop her and noticed the electric razor on the vanity, causing

her cheeks to turn bright red.

Lina teased with a mischievous grin, "Lenny, is this yours?"

"I..." Lena's face reddened further, but she couldn't come up with a lie, so she simply lowered her head.

Lina couldn't contain her laughter. "Zuko also uses this brand of razor. Do all the Hamerton children like this brand?"

Lena blushed even deeper.

Lina playfully looked at her. "It seems like I came over on short notice and interrupted something between you

two?"

"No, no!" Lena rushed to explain. "Chris went to the gym today; it's his 'workout day.' Besides, we're not living

together..."

"Hmm?"

"We're just roommates, n-not living together. We have separate bedrooms!"

Lena spoke awkwardly but sincerely, making Lina laugh again.

"Okay, okay, I won't press further," Lina said, catching her breath. They settled on the sofa, continuing their

conversation. "By the way, you went to the hospital the other day, right? Didn't you initially say you wouldn't visit

Nala? Why the change of heart? Are you still worried about her?"

"What?" Lena was taken aback.

"The day I took Sephy for a check-up!" Lina clarified.

Lena paused, suddenly feeling uneasy about it.
