Angeline wanted to wait until Azura was willing to bring the child out to meet her.

When she thought about how the child was trapped in such a dangerous family, her anxiety flared up, especially when she still hadn’t heard a single peep from the child despite standing there for so long already.

“Calm down. I heard from the village chief that the child is well-protected. People are sent to check on him on a regular basis. The man was just grumbling. I’m sure he wouldn’t do anything to the child,” Jonathan comforted.

Seeing that she didn’t reply, he continued advising while wearing a calm and composed expression. “Only more danger awaits if you remain here. You should return and come up with a plan. Sooner or later, you’ll be able to meet the child.”

In response, Angeline clenched her fists as she struggled to make a decision.

At that moment, her mind was a jumbled mess.

While she couldn’t think straight, she could still tell Jonathan said that for her own good. He’s right. Rather than staying here pointlessly, I should return and come up with a solution.

As the sun rose and illuminated the entire village, a few villagers carrying hoes stepped out of their homes and glanced at the duo, flabbergasted.

They should leave as quickly as possible if they didn’t want to alert the villagers and draw attention to themselves.

Unwilling to give up, Angeline continued fixing her gaze on the door, trying to find any traces of the child. However, she was dragged forcefully into the car by Jonathan.

Meanwhile, Evander and Floretta had arrived at Hallsbay’s airport. Before they could even return home to deposit their luggage, Evander asked Sylas to drive them to Angeline’s place.

The father-daughter duo stood at the door and rang the doorbell repeatedly. Alas, no one responded even after a long time. A grim expression appeared on their faces.

Evander lowered his head and glanced at the disappointed Floretta. As his heart ached, he tightened his grip on her tiny hand and suggested softly, “Let’s go home, okay?”
