Beverly was still debating whether to design a civilian-grade firewall when the bathroom door slid open.A wave of steam drifted out. With a sharp click by her ear, the master bedroom sank into darkness, leaving only the silver glow of her laptop screen before her.She looked up, her eyes struggling to adjust from light to near-total dark. All she sensed was the faint inky scent unique to James creeping in, instantly enveloping her.His handsome face gradually came into view as his hand pressed down on her laptop."It's 4:00 am, Mrs. Bronson. Why are you even busier than me?"With those words, he slowly closed the laptop. The light from the screen vanished, and the room sank completely into darkness.As James' breath brushed across her face, Beverly jolted back to her senses. She suddenly became aware of the situation she was in.James' two casual remarks had instantly brought a flush to her cheeks. Cupping her face in her hands, she blurted out without thinking, "Chief, are you

Beverly's face paled slightly. She didn't want to get into a conflict with Tabitha."That's enough, Bianca. Let's go."Bianca gave Tabitha a cold snort, then took Beverly by the arm. "You've lost so much weight. You need to eat more."Beverly smiled and said, "Isn't it better to be slender?"Timothy tugged at her other hand insistently. "Mommy, Daddy says you look prettier when you're a little rounder."Tabitha had already realized that she had no grounds to argue. Yet the moment she heard Timothy call Beverly "Mommy", it ignited a fresh wave of irrational anger in her.But with no one else at home to vent to, she simply finished breakfast and went back to her room to rest.…Beverly and Timothy had a wonderful time once they got to the amusement park."Mommy, when will Esther get here?" Timothy asked."Very soon. James has already sent someone to pick her up," Beverly replied."Mommy, you won't leave anymore, right? Daddy said if you stay in Ravenwell, we won't go back to A

There was also a side door inside the therapy room. Beyond it lay a sea of flowers, designed to soothe patients.Agnes opened the side door. "Mr. Gray, you only have ten minutes.""Thank Sheldon for me," Evan said before stepping into the therapy room.Beverly was sleeping peacefully on the recliner, her delicate face still marked with tear stains.Evan sat down beside her and gently took her hand in his. "Bev."Though she should have been deep asleep, Beverly still heard Evan and caught the familiar scent of cedar. She opened her eyes. Yet, because of the essential oil, she wasn't fully conscious yet and thought she was still dreaming. The moment she saw Evan, she raised her hand and slapped him hard. The sharp smack rang in her ears, snapping her fully awake.She pulled her hand out of Evan's grasp and looked at him coldly. "It was your fault. You hid my condition from me and cost me my daughter."Overcome with grief and remorse, Evan whispered in a voice thick with self-r

"Bev, what happened?" Damien noticed the documents by Beverly's side. "Did Evan give those to you?"Evan alone possessed anything that belonged to Elaine."They're just some things my mother left me." The moment Beverly heard Evan's name, her expression darkened."It's only natural for Evan to hand them over to you since they rightfully belong to you. He didn't do anything to you, did he?" Damien asked with concern.Beverly shook her head.Damien let out a sigh of relief. With the military hospital full of guards, even if Evan had wanted to do something, it would have been impossible.He studied Beverly's expression. "All Evan did was bring a few things over, so why is Chief Bronson so angry?"As far as Damien could remember, James rarely lost his temper. But whenever he did, someone always paid the price. "I hope he didn't make things difficult for you."James was angry? Beverly hadn't noticed that at all. She glanced toward the room divider, but from where she sat, she coul

James hummed faintly in response as he rested his large hand loosely at the small of Beverly's back.Beverly took her time admiring the decorations in the garden before following James' lead inside.Horatio and Bianca had hurried in ahead of them, and from inside came a flurry of hushed whispers and the sound of hasty movements."Why did Chief Bronson come too?""We're done for. There's still an 'I love you' banner over there. Quick, take it down!""What if Chief Bronson finds out we were helping Professor Reed steal her away?""Come on, it's not like Chief Bronson really likes—" Bianca's voice cut off abruptly.Until today, she'd always believed that. But just now, Beverly and James really had looked like a couple and already seemed comfortable together."Don't waste any more time," Horatio urged.Beverly entered with James, while Damien trailed behind with an excited Timothy.It was as if Timothy had been bewitched. One moment he was saying, "Mr. Bronson, have some water."
