After hanging up on Linda, it was time to board the flight. Sage, Donald, and Dexter passed security and boarded the plane.Two hours later, they landed in Colville. Since it was late in the day, they checked in at a hotel first and planned to visit Donald's friend the next morning at the hospital.Later, Sage brought Donald and Dexter to savor some local delicacies. When they returned to the hotel, she checked her phone and saw a missed call from Ian, which she believed she overlooked because it was noisy at the restaurant.She also noticed that he had texted her, asking, "Have you landed?"Since the text was from an hour ago, she didn't bother to reply to him. She picked some clothes from her luggage and headed to the bathroom.…After Ian returned to Solaris Estate from Holcomb Manor, he was greeted by Wanda in the main hall. She asked if he needed a glass of water, to which he responded with a shake of his head.The estate felt unusually lonely and desolate when he returned

It was a text from Priscilla. According to her, Benjamin had been released from the police station, and he even went to her home.She wrote, "For some reason, his winery is under investigation. The girl from the orphanage changed her statement and claimed she didn't have voluntary sexual relations with him. Benjamin's like a crazy beast who'd attack at any time, so I chased him away."Sage, I warned him not to try anything funny, but you still need to look out for him because he's got nothing to lose now. Get Mr. Holcomb to accompany you if you're going out."Priscilla thought that Sage's relationship with Ian had improved, as Ian had previously shown up to scare Benjamin away and sent the latter to the police.Sage did not correct Priscilla. She merely assured Priscilla that she was not in town and would not run into Benjamin.Priscilla replied, "I'm relieved to hear that. The police are starting an investigation to collect evidence. If the orphanage girl is telling the truth, Be

"Sage, what are you worried about? I'm still pretty healthy. I don't need you to hold me," Donald chirped.Sage rested her head on his arm and said, "Well, just think of it as you helping me to walk!"Donald curiously asked, "Sage, is there something on your mind? Why do I feel like something has changed in you lately?"She did not deny it. "Is it a good or bad change?"Feeling sorry, he patted her on the shoulder. "I don't need you to be understanding and obedient all the time. You can live life any way you want as long as it makes you happy."She felt a lump in her throat upon hearing his remark. Tears brimmed in her eyes. Donald had always doted on her. He'd never blame her no matter what mistakes she had made."Why are you crying? What's troubling you?" Donald inquired.She wiped away her tears and shook her head. "Nothing. I just feel sorry. I only had Ian in my eyes and did not pay much attention to you in the past."Donald broke into a smile. "You little fool. I'm happy

After meeting with the police, Zachary sent Sage back to the hotel. He thoughtfully reassured her, "Don't worry. I'll follow up with the police on your behalf and keep you updated on any progress."She thanked him earnestly. Anyone would have dismissed the event as a mere incident. Zachary was the only one who took her seriously and patiently accompanied her in her investigation.When Sage was back at the hotel, she knocked on Donald's door, knowing that he must have been waiting for her update.He answered the door with a concerned look. "Sage, you're back. You don't look well though. Is everything okay?"She shook her head and smiled. "I'm fine.""I called Zack to ask about it. He told me you checked the surveillance footage of the incident. Look, what happened tonight was just an accident. You don't have to be worried about it," Donald comforted her.She remarked, "I just wanted to be sure. It was a freaky coincidence for the two motorcyclists to almost run us over.""Grandpa

Sage was nettled by Ian's behavior. Refusing to engage with him, she plugged the landline back and called the hotel front desk.She asked, "Do you have any more rooms available? I'd like to book a new room."Since Ian wanted to stay, she'd let him hang out in her room. She could get a new one for herself.To her dismay, the front desk staff informed her, "Our apologies, Madam. Our rooms are fully booked for the night."Already miffed from being woken up at midnight, she grew infuriated upon learning there were no empty rooms. She barked, "How could you let a man into my room without my permission? Set aside a new room for me, or I'll complain!""Madam, we're sorry. The guest claimed to be your husband, and he didn't want to wake you up at midnight. So, we—"Refusing to listen to the explanation, she hung up on the front desk. Staring at Ian, who had an unreadable look on his face, she knew she couldn't get rid of him that night.She relented. "There's an extra blanket in the clo
