Graham sat in a hospital chair, his hands in his hair, looking dejected.
"No..." He looked up. "Uncle Zephyr, Aunt Cordelia, you haven't talked to Sophia. You don't know her! She wouldn't
lie to me!"
Zephyr reprimanded, "Why are you so stubborn?"
Josiah grabbed Zephyr with a sense of despair in his eyes.
"Never mind, Z..." he said weakly. "I don't want to argue with him while Kelly is being treated... I-I'll pretend I never
had this son."
"Dad!"
"Get lost," Josiah calmly said. But beneath his calm exterior, there was disappointment.
Graham hesitated for a moment but turned to leave. Just before he walked away, he turned back and said softly,

before."
Josiah didn't even look at him, shaking his head lightly.
Shortly after, the lights in the emergency ward went out.
Josiah rushed over, shouting Kelly's name.
The doctor came out, took off the sweaty mask, and managed a reassuring smile. "Mr. Bayer, Mrs. Bayer is no
longer in critical condition right now."
"What?" Cordelia was surprised. "Right now? So does that mean... she might be in the future?"
"Please stay calm," the doctor explained. "Mrs. Bayer's case is rather complicated. She will be transferred to the
ICU immediately, and you won't be able to see her for now. This week is crucial, but I believe she will get through
this."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and their heavy hearts lightened slightly.
"But, there's something unusual about her condition this time," the doctor remarked. "As long as she doesn't
experience any more stress, her physical condition should be stable.
"However, from what we observed during the resuscitation, her heart irregularity and high blood pressure were due
to psychological stress." "That Sophia is highly suspicious!" Cordelia furrowed her brow. "Josiah, you can't let
Graham be with her! I bet she's behind Kelly's incident this time, and Arya's disappearance is probably related to
her, too!"
Josiah looked tired. He sat down and waved his hand dismissively. His thoughts were all centered around Kelly now.
Since Graham had sworn to bring Arya back, he would let him handle it.
Josiah stayed in front of the ICU, even though he couldn't be with Kelly inside. Perhaps Kelly could sense his
presence, and it might give her strength. Unknowingly, tears welled up in his eyes before they fell.

remember the beautiful starry sky that evening..."
As planned, Daniel arrived at Fat Lawler's residence.
Fat Lawler lived in the city's suburbs, and his courtyard had gray-black tile eaves and lanterns hanging at various
spots, showcasing its grandeur.
Upon his arrival, Daniel was respectfully welcomed by Fat Lawler's subordinates and offered some fine tea.
Fat Lawler hadn't shown himself yet, but his voice came from outside the door. "Hahaha, Daniel! I know why you've
come!"
Daniel put down the teacup and stood up, nodding with a faint smile.
Fat Lawler was still dressed neatly, looking dignified and sharp. The few strands of white hair near his temples
added a touch of mature charm to his appearance.
"Don't worry." He beckoned for Daniel to sit and smiled at him. "The bait is already in place, and it won't be long
before you can settle your score. Heh! What do you want to achieve?"
