“Con, Devin,” Nigel said, looking straight at Devin without paying any more attention to Carmelita. “Let's
go.”
Devin nodded and rose to his feet, following Nigel upstairs.
Carmelita collapsed on the sofa, her face filled with despair.

After dinner, Lucas and Belinda took Kenia for a walk along the river, chatting while enjoying the cool night
breeze.
They headed hafterward, only to find an unwanted guest outside the house upon their arrival.
When Belinda and Kenia saw the person, the smiles vanished from their faces.
“Mom, Belinda...” Holley approached, her face etched with sadness and grievance.
To an outsider, it would appear Holley had faced great suffering or had been wronged severely.
“Belinda, Lucas, let's go,” Kenia said, her tone icy as she turned to them.
“Okay,” Lucas replied, beginning to push Kenia’s wheelchair away. Just then, Holley fell to her knees with a loud
thud in front of Kenia, effectively blocking her path. Lucas had no choice but to stop.
Holley looked up at Kenia, her eyes red and filled with tears. “Mom! | beg you, don’t treatlike this! Just listen
to me, please?”
Seeing Holley like this, Kenia was also in pain. Her hand tightened into a fist on the wheelchair’s armrest. She
averted her gaze, her eyes briefly betraying her inner struggle.

Belinda understood Kenia’s turmoil. Her grandfather had died in a car accident when Holley was nine, leaving
Kenia and Holley to depend solely on each other. It wasn’t until Belinda’s birth that their family had expanded.
Despite her current cold demeanor toward Holley, Kenia’s deep-seated pain was palpable.

“Alright! Don’t kneel here. Let's go inside and talk,” Belinda said, though her face remained cold.
Holley’s face brightened immediately, and she nodded eagerly at Belinda. “Okay, okay.”
She then rose and followed them into the house.
After settling Kenia in the living room, Belinda said softly, “Grandma, you two talk. Lucas and | will head upstairs.
If you need anything, just call us.”
“Okay,” Kenia agreed, nodding.
Belinda and Lucas ascended the stairs, while Margie and the maid who cared for Kenia retreated to their rooms.
In the expansive living room, only Kenia and Holley remained.
Holley knelt before Kenia’s wheelchair, grasped her hand, and pleaded through sobs, “Mom, | know | was wrong!
Please, don’t be angry atanymore. Don’t shutout, okay?”
