Through the curling smoke, his deep eyes gazed at the city below. The darkness was thick and unfathomable—no one could guess what was brewing in his heart.

Chase let out a short “Umm” and suddenly asked, “What do you m

Chase dashed out, phone still pressed to his ear. “Grandma, she’s definitely left the hospital. Don’t come. Wait at home and see if she returns. Let me know immediately if you hear anything.”“What… where are you going?” Grandma Gallagher asked, panicked.“Twenty minutes isn’t long. I’ll find her.”“What… what’s going on?!” she wailed.Chase had no time to comfort her. He hung up, made more calls, and sent people to search.She was sick, outside was cold, and she only had a down jacket. She couldn’t last long.

In the room, Harper curled up on the bed, wrapped in blankets like a cocoon, shivering.“Harper…” Chase frowned, seeing her like that.She hugged herself, teeth chattering. Hearing his voice, she lifted her eyes. “Chase… I’m so cold.”“Come, let me take your temperature. I’ll turn the heater up.”She scooted closer. He placed the thermometer under her armpit. “Hold it.
