When Briony returned to the hospital room, Little Nina was already asleep again.

Blair saw her come in and immediately stood up. "Ms. Kensington."

Briony gave him a calm look. "Thank you, Blair. You've been a tremendous help.”

"You're too kind, Ms. Kensington. Little Nina is delightful. It's an honor that she trusts me and feels comfortable around me," Blair replied, head slightly bowed.

Briony nodded. "It's true. Little Nina's always been outgoing, but you're the first man she's only met a handful of times and still trusts so much."

A flicker of joy flashed in Blair's eyes beneath the brim of his cap.

He thought he'd masked his reaction well, but Briony had already taken it all in.

Little Nina stayed in the hospital for five days, and Briony was there by her side almost the entire time.

Blair, too, barely left their side, keeping a quiet, watchful presence.

On the sixth day, Little Nina had fully recovered and was discharged.

Briony brought her back to Skybreeze Retreat, leaving her in the care of Carol and Marlene, then hurried straight to Starlight Entertainment.
