The phone rang, cutting through Elysia’s daydream. When she saw a familiar name light up the screen, a smile spread across her face, and all her earlier sadness vanished. Eagerly, she pressed the answer button, playfully saying, “Good evening, esteemed elders.”

“Good evening, Elysia,” Max exclaimed, leaning closer to the camera with a big grin on his face.

But before Max could say more, Leo quickly pulled him back to take his place in front of the screen. “Good evening, Elysia.” he greeted warmly.

Max shot Leo an annoyed look. “Jack, look at him,” he complained, pouting.

Leo rolled his eyes and glanced at Max with irritation. “You’re such a little girl.”

Jack sighed in frustration as he took the phone from Leo’s hands. Just a moment ago, Leo had been happily chatting with Elysia, and now his phone had disappeared out of thin air.

Leo frowned, confused at first, but when he realized that Jack had taken it, he relented. Jack chuckled while holding the phone. “Elysia, have you missed us?”

Leo and Max leaned in eagerly, hoping to hear her response. Elysia looked at her three elderly guardians on the screen, her eyes sparkling with unshed tears.

If it weren’t for Scott’s scheming, she would be leading a carefree life with her elders in Silverstream.

But Scott had plotted so extensively to pull her away from Silverstream; since he started all this trouble, he should also deal with the consequences.

Jack, noticing the tears in her eyes, asked gently, “Elysia, what’s bothering you? Is the Rosewood family treating you poorly?” Leo said, “Elysia, if anyone gives you a hard time, you must tell me. I will stand up for you.”

Max added quickly, “Definitely. No one can mistreat our dear Elysia. Just let me know, and I’ll make sure they regret it.” As she looked at her three guardians, Elysia smiled through her tears, whispering, “It’s just that I’ve been missing you all.” She didn’t want to drag her guardians into her problems or burden them. This was something she wanted to handle by herself.

However, when the elders heard her words, they exchanged concerned glances, and it was Jack who finally said, “Since Elysia misses us, we’ll visit Sivro in a few days.”

At this news, Leo and Max’s faces lit up with excitement. ‘Did Jack really mean it? Didn’t he suggest not going?‘ The thrilling news filled their hearts with joy, and their smiles widened.
