Evelyn narrated her story to her grandfather who was somehow happy that Evelyn had found her father. She has made his job easier for him.

"I want to meet him. I want to set everything right. I wronged him and my late daughter. I want to make things right again". He felt vulnerable before his granddaughter.

Evelyn hugged him and patted his back. "It's ok grandfather. I know he will forgive you. And I know that mom will also forgive you". Evelyn cooed and assured her grandfather.

"Grandfather. I have a request". She requested.

"Anything my dear. Anything". He assured her.

"I want my Nana out of Jail. She is innocent". She requested knowing that there was no way her grandfather would refuse her now.

He sighed and chuckled. Then, his expression changed to what looked like regret.

"I have something to tell you, Evelyn. I discovered a few days ago that my daughter was poisoned by__". He passed as his breathing changed. He started fighting for breath.

"Call the doctor". Evelyn

I have no idea if I am okay. I simply do not want to frighten him. I felt sick to my stomach and my entire body started to weaken. Taking in our surroundings, I noticed two cars. Violet's car struck me as recognizable. However, I do not know the second vehicle. I shifted my gaze to Alex. And he was staring at me. "We may have some guests, I believe." He explained it to me, and I nodded. Something about the way I moved felt strange to Alex. So, he gave me his support as he wrapped his hands around my waist leading me inside. "Thanks," I breathed. He knew that something was off, but he decided to let it be. As soon as we entered. I grudgingly rolled my eyes at the person when a familiar scream filled the entire house.

He walked in with a cup of coffee in his hand. "Thank God you are awake. I was getting worried that I was about to call my doctor to come check on you". He said like he knows me.
