After distributing the cake, William glanced at Talia, then stood and switched places with the person on her right. Christian sat on Talia's left.Talia found William's behavior puzzling. As soon as he took his seat, he leaned closer and asked quietly, "Talia, what about Willow? What's she been up to lately? I haven't seen her post any new food videos."William's sudden mention of Willow left Talia momentarily confused. Christian, who had been watching William closely, frowned sharply at the question.Seeing Christian's tense expression, William quickly smiled and explained, "Oh, right, Chris. Talia's good friend Willow is the woman I told you about. She's the one I'm interested in."Christian looked startled by William's candid admission. In the next moment, Talia turned to look at Christian, confused.Seeing everyone's tense expressions, William asked uncertainly, "What's wrong?"Christian glanced at Talia before telling William, "You two aren't suitable for each other."That

In all their years of marriage, Christian had never called Talia that except when putting on a show in front of Franklin. Hearing the word "honey" now made Talia's heart feel unbearably heavy.Quentin heard Christian's words, too. His face turned dark and vicious at once.At the same time, he shouted at Christian, "Christian, quit being disgusting! Who the hell are you calling honey?"Christian ignored Quentin's outburst entirely. He lifted his chin and led Talia away with an air of superiority.In that moment, Christian looked like he'd won a battle, satisfaction written all over his face. As Talia descended the steps, she glanced at Quentin from the corner of her eye.Quentin was angry, furious even, but he didn't move. Guilt stirred in Talia's chest. She opened her mouth to say something, but with Christian right beside her, she thought better of it and stayed silent.As Christian guided her into the car, Talia turned to look back at where Quentin stood. He had turned too, his

Seeing Nancy drenched in sweat, Jennifer finally grasped the seriousness of the situation. From the start, Jennifer had never liked Yvonne. So when Nancy mentioned that the girl had gone out and hadn't returned, she hadn't cared.But now it was almost 10:00 pm. What if something had actually happened to her? Jennifer's own anxiety kicked in.Jennifer nodded and hurried out of the hospital. About 20 minutes later, she came running back, her face covered in sweat.When Nancy saw Jennifer return alone, her stomach dropped. "Mom, what happened? You still didn't find her?"Nancy leaned against the headboard, her face full of unease and worry.Jennifer grabbed a cup of water and gulped down two mouthfuls before shaking her head. "No. I looked everywhere in the hospital. She's nowhere."Nancy frantically clutched at her forehead. "Mom, what if something really happened to Yvonne? If Chris finds out something happened to her, he'll hate me. He'll never want to marry me."Seeing Nancy so

When Talia left the inpatient building and reached the outpatient lobby, she discovered that it had started raining outside. The rain wasn't heavy, but it came on fast. The ground was soaked within moments.Talia first searched the hospital for Yvonne. When she didn't find her, she decided to go outside. Rain was falling, but she didn't have time to think. She ran straight into it.With rain streaming down her face, it was impossible to tell tears from rainwater. Her eyes were red and swollen as she called frantically for Yvonne. Even without a response, she kept calling over and over.In her panic, Talia forgot to even call the police. Afraid of missing any trace of Yvonne, she searched everywhere, even the bushes. When Christian left the inpatient building, he saw Talia rummaging through the hospital flower beds.She murmured quietly, "Yvonne, please stop hiding from me, okay? Come out. I'll go crazy if I can't find you."Talia's voice was thick with sobs. Christian watched from

Quentin's words brought more comfort than Christian's ever could. Talia couldn't explain why, but something about Quentin's voice had this strange power to calm her racing heart.After a long silence, she murmured into the phone, "Okay."She wasn't sure if Quentin had even heard her, but she hung up without waiting for a response. Quentin had been waiting in Talia's bedroom for nearly an hour after showering, but she never came home.Now, hearing that Yvonne was missing, panic seized him. He worried about Talia, afraid she'd do something reckless in her desperation to find her daughter. The thought sent him climbing out the window without hesitation.As he drove, Quentin made calls, mobilizing people to search for Yvonne in different areas. The hospital parking lot was full, so Quentin pulled over on the street.Night had fallen, leaving the streets nearly empty. Inside the hospital, though, crowds packed the halls.As Quentin stepped out of his car, he heard a faint, desperate v
