As soon as he finished, Shawn stood abruptly. "Come on, let's go to my office."

Has your dad been feeling any better?"Nancy replied, "He's much better. He's able to talk now."He smiled, relieved. "That's good to hear."She simply hummed in agreement, not adding anything more.Noticing the silence, Christian grew curious. "Is there nothing else you want to say?"Nancy fell silent for a moment before her soft voice came through, "Chris, I've been missing you."When he heard this, a genuine smile spread across his face. "I'll come see you in a couple of days. I've got some things to take care of these days, so I can't leave."Nancy didn't press for details. "Okay. I'll hang up now."Before Christian could respond, she ended the call abruptly.

    At this moment, the words Talia had said when she woke up in the hospital flooded Christian's mind.He started to wonder if what she said might be true.But how could it be? Yvonne was so young. How could she possibly have such bad intentions?Christian quickly pushed the terrifying thought aside.Despite that, he reached out and gently held Yvonne's arms. Smiling, he asked, "Yvonne, tell me, how did your mom fall down the stairs?"Yvonne thought for a moment. Finally, she replied with a feigned struggle, "I didn't really see clearly, but I think Mommy just lost her footing and fell. When she fell, I reached out to grab her, but I couldn't catch her. Daddy, you were downstairs. Did you see me trying to catch her hand?"Christian shook his head. "I didn't really notice."He had looked up just in time to see Talia falling down the stairs.Yvonne seemed reassured by his answer.She then wrapped her arms around Christian's neck. "Daddy, are you still worried about Mommy?"Christi

    When Christian returned to Jubilee Manor from the hospital, Emma was the only one in the living room.Seeing him, she quickly walked over and asked with concern, "Mr. Lane, how's Mrs. Lane? Is she badly hurt?"Christian recalled Talia's words, and, with little patience, he snapped, "Ask her yourself."Emma fell silent, not pressing further.Christian made his way upstairs, heading straight for his bedroom.Meanwhile, next door, when Yvonne heard him come back, she quickly ended her call with Nancy.After hanging up, she slipped on her slippers and hurried to Christian's room."Daddy, how's Mommy?" she asked in her sweet voice as she entered.Still irritated, Christian rubbed his forehead. Hearing Yvonne, he forced a smile and said, "She's fine, but her leg needs surgery."Yvonne's face fell a little as she quietly muttered, "Oh."Christian didn't notice the flash of frustration that crossed her face. He said, "Get to bed soon. I'm going to wash up."Yvonne nodded. "Okay."A

Talia reached for it and answered without checking who was calling.She held it to her ear, her voice choked. "Hello?"Henry's gentle voice came through. "Talia, did everything go okay?"After dropping Talia off at Jubilee Manor that morning, Henry had been itching to call her. But he worried that it might seem intrusive, so he held back.He could not wait any longer.Talia bit her lip lightly, trying to suppress a sob. "Not... Not yet."Henry caught the tremor in her voice. His tone shifted as he asked, "What's wrong? Are you hurt?"Talia forced herself to sound steady. "Henry, I'm fine. Get some rest. I have to go."Before Henry could respond, she hung up. She buried her face in the pillow, her whole body shaking as she sobbed.After the tears stopped, she felt somewhat better. She decided to call
