The next day, Daisy came to visit Jolie. Noticing Jackie in the room, she frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Jackie replied with a friendly tone, "I'm Miss Quin's caregiver. And you are?"

Daisy's expression shifted briefly before she responded, "You can leave now. There's nothing for you to do here."

Jackie grew wary and glanced at Jolie for guidance.

Jolie said calmly, "Jackie, I'd like some fruit."

Jackie immediately understood that Jolie was subtly asking her to step out.

As soon as the door closed, Daisy turned to Jolie. "Jolie, did you look into that caregiver? What's her background? Is she reliable?"

Jolie met her mother's gaze, her tone flat. "Sure. I'll investigate later."

Daisy hesitated for a moment as if she suddenly remembered something. "I'm sorry, Jolie. Yesterday I forgot about you. There was an issue at the company, and your father and I were tied up until late. Were you alright? You didn't go hungry, did you?" Jolie found it laughable.
