"Oh, my little troublemaker, you can't go around bumping into things, she murmured, gently placing him back on the cushions.

Her fingers tightened around her phone as she anxiously waited for a response.

Moments later, a message popped up. "Everything regarding your son's studies in Montara has been arranged. You won't have to worry about tuition or living expenses. Just do as I say?

Nancy exhaled quietly, a flicker of guilt crossing her face as she glanced at Jasper.

"Milk ... drink milk," Jasper mumbled, stretching out his tiny hands, asking for milk.

Nancy quickly stood up to fetch it, seizing the moment to slip a small pill from her pocket. But as she held it, hesitation gripped her, and she remained frozen for a long while.

Just as she was about to drop it in, the butler's voice echoed from outside. "Are you Ms. Faye? Mrs. Yeager told me to bring you in to play with your brother if you arrived."

"Thank you," Connor said politely, expressing his gratitude to the butler before guiding Faye into the living

room.

Faye hesitated near the doorway, peeking inside at Jasper, who was perched on the sofa.

A hint of unease filled her eyes-she worried that her brother might not accept her. Even more than that, she feared that Kelly and Zev would treat her the way her parents had, casting her aside now that they had another child.

"Come in," Connor urged gently. "Didn't you want to see Kelly?"

Connor studied Faye with curiosity.

Since Kelly was nowhere to be found, Faye had no choice but to let Connor lead her to the villa where she was staying.
