“Jamie, you need to get better. You still haven’t given me an answer.” Sitting by her bedside, Ben held Jamie’s hand, its warmth unnaturally high. He pressed her hand to his cheek, gently rubbing against it. Jamie woke up in the middle of the night. This time, the throbbing in her head had lessened, though she was still groggy as she scanned her surroundings. Her eyes landed on Ben, slumped in a chair by her bed. He hadn’t changed his clothes or even covered himself with a blanket. The man who was always so meticulous about his appearance now sat there in a rumpled, wrinkled shirt. Jamie stared at him for a moment, her mind blank. Before she realized it, her hand had moved, brushing against his chiseled face. The light flutter of his lashes snapped her back to awareness. She quickly tried to pull her hand away, but it was too late. He had already caught her. “Touching me first thing after waking up? Looks like you’re feeling better and might’ve even had a change

Charlie was now in the operating room. Mrs. Lucas was just as anxious as Jamie, if not more. Seeing Mrs. Lucas’s unconcealed worry, Jamie felt ashamed of the fleeting suspicion she’d had earlier. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Lucas. I thought…” “It’s understandable that you’d feel that way,” Mrs. Lucas said, giving Jamie a complicated look. She hadn’t forgotten how harshly she had treated Jamie in the past. If not for Charlie, she might still be holding onto her prejudice against Jamie, unwilling to see things clearly. “Let’s not dwell on it,” Ben interjected, cutting the conversation short. “The lead surgeon is here.” He stepped forward to speak with the doctor, his usual calm demeanor overshadowed by a hint of urgency. Though Ben tried to appear confident, his concern was evident, no less intense than Jamie’s. He just wasn’t the type to openly express it. Jamie observed him, her emotions complicated. Soon, the surgery began. Heart transplants were lengthy procedures, and

Ben let out a quiet sigh of relief. “You weren’t doing so well earlier, but you’re fine now.” He had looked into Jamie’s condition extensively, and the advice was clear that she couldn’t handle too much emotional stress. For now, it was best to avoid telling her about the full extent of her issues. Jamie didn’t suspect anything. Her memories of what had just happened were hazy and disjointed, and Ben’s explanation that she was simply overexerted seemed plausible enough. Charlie tugged at her hand. “Mom, are you really tired? You should go rest. I’m a big boy now and I don’t need you to stay with me all the time.” Jamie couldn’t help but smile, pinching his chubby cheek. “Yes, you’re my little man, but I still worry about you.” “I think you should rest too,” Ben added. “I’m fine,” Jamie replied. “If this is about Winnie, I’ve already come to terms with it.” “I’ve arranged for a nurse to help watch over Charlie. Take tomorrow off and come back the day after,” Ben

Jamie’s expression shifted almost imperceptibly as she asked, “Charlie, do you like that Uncle Ben a lot?” “I do! He brings me lots of stuff, and I like that grandma too.” “I see.” Jamie looked at Charlie who was oblivious to the truth that the “Uncle Ben” he adored was actually the father he had always longed for.Her chest tightened with an uncomfortable heaviness. For a moment, doubt crept in. Had she made the right choice back then, hiding the truth and keeping Ben and the Lucas family in the dark?Maybe if she hadn’t, Charlie wouldn’t have grown up without a father in his life.Charlie suddenly stopped, his face lighting up with joy as he spotted someone. Letting go of her hand, he ran ahead. “Uncle Ben!” he shouted, launching himself into Ben’s arms. Ben crouched down to scoop him up. The usually reserved man, known for his detached demeanor, softened visibly in Charlie’s presence, even smiling. “I haven’t visited in a couple of days. Were you good?” “I

The discovery of three bodies buried weeks ago raised a pressing question. If Winnie were still alive, who did those bodies belong to? There were too many unanswered questions. Ben decided to focus on calming Jamie for now. “Even if you want to look into this, now isn’t the time. Let’s get back in the car, and we’ll figure it out later.” Jamie, reluctantly, let herself be ushered back to the car. The planned lunch outing was abandoned. Charlie woke up from his nap in the afternoon, ate the meal the housekeeper prepared for him, and promptly went back to sleep. In the bedroom, Jamie lay on her side, her mind replaying the woman’s side profile over and over. It did resemble Winnie in some ways, but the more she thought about it, the more doubts crept in. Had she really mistaken someone else for her sister? Ben moved quickly. After reviewing the street surveillance footage his assistant retrieved, he came to tell her, “I had the cameras checked. There’s no sign of Winnie
