CHAPTER 141

Sophia’s POV“Don’t worry, Sophia,” Kayla assured me, giving me a quick hug. “I have to go now, but I’ll keep trying to get in touch with Adrian. “I promise I'll have him call you as soon as possible.” She squeezed my hand reassuringly. “And I’ll update you on what’s happening with Adrian’s family.”“Thank you, Kayla,” I said, my voice filled with gratitude. Connor stepped forward, nodding at both of us. “I’ll drive for Kayla. Take care, Sophia.”“Thanks, Connor,” I replied, watching them head toward the door. My mind wandered briefly, wondering how close Kayla and Connor had become. But with everything that was happening, I pushed the thought aside, deciding to ask Kayla about it another time. Right now, my heart was a mess, and I needed to focus on Reese and on staying safe.I turned back to find Daniel standing nearby, a calm and protective presence. “You’re safe here, Sophia. I’ve got everything under control,” he said softly. “I asked someone to monitor your house. Most of the m

CHAPTER 142

Kayla’s POVConnor's car purred down the road, the engine's calm cadence a stark contrast to my current mood. I clutched my phone, my thumb hovering over Adrian's contact for the hundredth time. I hit the dial again. Silence. Voicemail. Again. “Aarrrggghhhh!” I shouted with frustration. “Damn it, Adrian,” I muttered under my breath, shoving the phone into my bag.Connor glanced at me from the driver's seat, his brow furrowed in concern. “Maybe he turned off his phone,” he suggested. “After that bomb he dropped, I'm sure a lot of people are trying to reach him now.”“Yeah, maybe,” I sighed. “His father probably took his phone.”Connor raised an eyebrow. “What is he, ten years old?”I couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. “Sometimes it feels like it. Well, from what Sophia told me about Mr. Roosevelt, I wouldn’t put it past him. No wonder Adrian ran away from home.”We drove in silence for a moment, the city lights blurring outside the window. The weight of my worry pressed down o

CHAPTER 143

Sophia’s POVI woke up the next morning, expecting to feel the soft warmth of Reese beside me. Instead, my fingers brushed against cool, empty sheets. Panic surged through me, but then I heard it—the unmistakable sound of Reese's giggles coming from the kitchen. I quickly threw on my robe and padded out of the guest room.When I reached the kitchen doorway, the scene before me made my heart swell. Reese stood on a stool, her tiny hands busy mixing batter, while Daniel stood next to her, patiently guiding her movements. His deep chuckle mingled with her light laughter, filling the room with a warmth I hadn’t felt in a long time.“Good morning, Mommy!” Reese beamed at me, her face smudged with flour.“Good morning, sweetheart,” I replied, unable to hide my smile. “What are you two up to?”“We’re making pancakes!” she declared proudly, holding up the whisk as if it were a trophy.“Uncle Daniel’s teaching me,” she added, her eyes sparkling with excitement.“Looks like you’re having fun,”

CHAPTER 144

Elijah’s POVI sat on the edge of Julia's bed, flipping through channels with the remote in hand. The room was quiet except for the faint murmur of the TV. Finally, I’ve been discharged from the hospital but I was still sticking around because I felt obligated to take care of Julia. Julia, propped up by pillows, watched with me. We stumbled upon a cartoon, and its slapstick humor caught me off guard. I chuckled, but Julia's expression remained unchanged.“You used to love this show,” I said, trying to break the silence.Julia glanced at me, her eyes narrowing slightly. “It's kind of stupid, don't you think?”I blinked, taken aback by her bluntness. “But... you were obsessed with it as a kid. When you were still Sabrina…” “Oh!” Her eyes widened briefly, then she looked away, fidgeting with the blanket. “Well, I'm not a kid anymore, Elijah,” she murmured, reaching for the remote to change the channel.I sighed inwardly, feeling a pang of nostalgia mixed with a sense of disconnect.

CHAPTER 145

Elijah’s POVSomeone knocked on the door of Julia’s hospital room. I was surprised to see Connor poking his head in. “Good afternoon, Julia, Mr. Sinclair…” he greeted. “Oh, hey, Connor, come in!” I said enthusiastically, happy to see another familiar face. Seeing the stack of folders he was carrying, I remembered that I’d asked him to bring some of my work here. It made me feel eager to do something I enjoyed, to snap me out of this boredom. “Oh, hello, Connor,” Julia greeted. Then seeing the folders marked with the Sinclair Realty logo, she turned to me and said, “You know what? You and Connor can use this room to discuss your business matters. I’ve been wanting to visit Grandma Evelyn for a while now, anyway.”“Oh, are you sure?” I asked uncertainly. “If you really want to go there, I can assist you.”Julia beamed at me, apparently pleased that I was so concerned. “No, it’s fine,” she eventually said. “Let me just call a nurse.” She pressed on a button beside her bed. In just a w

CHAPTER 146

Julia’s POVI was wheeled down the stark, sterile hallway by the nurse who was going to accompany me to Grandma Evelyn's room. But we hadn't even gone far when I stopped and smiled at her. “Oh, I forgot something in my room,” I said, trying to sound like it was sudden and urgent. “We have to go back.”“Alright, no problem.” She led me back to my hospital room, but I waved her away when we got there. “You can go for now, I think they’re done so I’ll just wait a while here and have them take me.”The nurse looked dubious. But luckily, another nurse called her. “I’ll be fine, don’t worry,” I assured her. She smiled and eventually left. Oh, good! Now I can listen in on the conversation between Elijah and Connor. “I need to know who was behind this,” Elijah was saying, his voice low and intense. “Someone ran me off the road and then hurt Julia too. I won't rest until I find out who.”Connor responded, “We've got our best investigators on it. The police are also looking into it. They'l

CHAPTER 147

Julia’s POVI bolted from Grandma Evelyn's room, my heart pounding in my chest. I needed to act fast. As I hurried down the hallway, I heard voices coming from around the corner. I pressed myself against the wall, straining to listen.“We might need to administer a sedative to keep the patient calm,” a nurse was saying. “Here it is…”I peeked at their direction and saw that two nurses were talking, with a medication cart between them. My heart raced. I needed to act now before anyone found out that Grandma Evelyn was beginning to wake up. Before that old woman could talk about anything!Just then, a doctor approached the nurses and they began talking. To my delight, the three of them moved farther in the opposite direction, leaving the cart unattended. This was my chance. I moved quickly and quietly, my footsteps silent on the linoleum floor.The cart was just ahead, its drawers slightly ajar. I reached it and quickly glanced around to ensure no one was watching. My hands trembled as

CHAPTER 148

Sophia’s POVBecause I was still on leave from work, I was able to pick up Reese from play school these past few days. It became the highlight of each day. Today, Daniel insisted on driving for me and accompanying me. Usually, it was Kayla who came with me or I took a cab because my arm was still in a cast. As we waited outside the classroom, I watched Reese's face light up when she spotted us through the window. Her little legs carried her quickly to the door, her arms flinging around me in a tight hug.“Mommy! Uncle Daniel!” she squealed with delight.“Hey there, princess,” Daniel said, scooping her up in his arms. “How was your day?”“It was so much fun! We painted and played with blocks,” Reese replied, her eyes sparkling with excitement.As we walked to the car, Daniel turned to me with a smile. “I was thinking, how about you two come over to my place for dinner tonight?”“Dinner at your place?” I raised an eyebrow, surprised by the invitation. “What’s the occasion?”“Nothing

CHAPTER 149

Sophia’s POVI looked Reese in the eye and explained gently, “Sweetie, Daddy is still not well after his car accident. He has to stay in the hospital a bit longer to get better. But he will visit you as soon as he's feeling strong again.”Reese nodded slowly, absorbing the information. “Okay, Mommy. I hope he gets better soon.”“I hope so too, honey,” I said softly, feeling a mixture of relief and sadness.After dinner, Reese immediately settled in front of the TV to watch her favorite cartoons. It was still a bit early so Daniel and I opted for tea while we talked some more. “I'm glad to see you smiling more,” Daniel said, breaking the comfortable silence. “I'm really sorry you had to go through all this, but always remember that I'm just here.”I looked at him, his eyes filled with genuine concern and support. “I know, Daniel. And I'm glad to have amazing friends like you.”Honestly, I’ve been so stressed. First, I broke my arm and somehow caused Evelyn to suffer the accident that

CHAPTER 150

Sophia’s POVThe night was still, but my mind was anything but. I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, my thoughts racing in circles. The image of Elijah lying in the hospital haunted me, the fear of what I might find if I visited him eating at me. What if I walked in on him and Julia acting like a couple? The mere thought twisted my stomach into knots. But then, a voice in my mind scoffed, So what? You don't love him anymore, do you?I slipped out of bed and went to check on Reese. She was already fast asleep, her small body curled up under the blankets. I gently brushed a strand of hair from her face, trying to find some peace in her innocence. When I came out of her bedroom, a knock interrupted my thoughts. I narrowed my eyes, wondering who it could be at this hour. I made my way to the door and through the peephole, I saw Adrian standing in the hallway. “Hey,” I said, letting him in. Once he was inside, that’s when I noticed that his eyes were red and glassy. The smell of alcoh
