Anyone could tell that the story had lots of loopholes.

Keaton assured her, "Miss McKinney, I assure you that Mr. Pearson is already on it. Also, we have Joseph under surveillance."

She had Keaton send her to a fresh food market nearby the apartment to buy fresh ingredients before sending her home.

It was already 1.00PM by the time she finished cooking.

She made fish stew and cooked two light vegetable dishes before storing them inside insulated food containers. Then, she headed back to the hospital.

When she arrived outside the ward, she met the caretaker Louis hired there.

Softly, Leanna asked the caretaker, "How are things inside?"

While shaking her head, the caretaker replied, "I didn't enter the room. But I heard her crying."

With pursed lips, Leanna told the caretaker, "Thank you for your hard work. You may head to rest now, and I'll call you if I need anything."

"Sure, no problem."

Since the caretaker had already received her payment, she could work on other things when she had nothing to do.

Once the caretaker left, Leanna stood outside the room for a few minutes before taking a deep breath and knocking. "Zoe, I'm coming in."

After that, she specifically waited for one minute before heading inside.

Inside the ward, Zoe was done composing herself. She looked fine besides her red puffy eyes.

When she saw Leanna opening the food containers, she sniffed and asked, "What did you make? Smells amazing."

Leanna raised the small table on the bed and served the food from the food container. "They are all your favorites."
