Zoey wasn't concerned about Evelyn's thoughts. Her concern was to resolve the matter promptly.

Since Thomas hadn't died, the Farrell family would naturally return the pension to the court. The king might grant it again under a different reason, but that was another matter. It was improper and unseemly to keep a death pension for someone who was still alive, and it wouldn't reflect well on anyone.

Without wasting any more time, Zoey took Luna with her to visit the Farrell family.

Upon arriving, they found Alice in a state of delirious joy. The news of Thomas' survival had overwhelmed her so much that she fainted from excitement. Now, she was lying in bed, recovering.

When Zoey explained that they were there to return the pension and the money from the shops, the Farrell family was momentarily stunned. After all, they hadn't expected to reclaim them from Viola.

Zoey smiled and said, "We're all very pleased to hear that Thomas is still alive. Since he didn't die, the pension naturally needs to be returned to the court. The Farrell family has shown great kindness by giving them to Viola. Since she has remarried, it's inappropriate for her to keep them. That is also her own wish. She even wrote a letter to inquire about your health, Alice."

Zoey handed the letter to Opal, who was now managing the Farrell family's internal affairs and was thus responsible for reading the letter.

The letter offered congratulations and wished Alice a speedy recovery. It was signed "Mrs. Warren".

Opal nodded slightly as she read the letter, then folded it with a smile. "Viola is very thoughtful. Thank you for your consideration, Zoey."
