Anne was taken aback. "Carly, what's gotten into you?"

Carly smirked as she replied, "Oh, come on, Ms. Warwick. Drop the act. You want to marry my dad and take my mom's place, right? Well, she's back now, and I'm on her side."

Anne chuckled. "I'm happy to see you and your mom getting along."

Carly scoffed. "Ms. Warwick, you really are good at pretending."

At that moment, she glanced around and asked, "Where's my dad?"

Anne didn't look at her. Instead, she gracefully took a seat at the dining table, picked up her cutlery, and began eating breakfast as if she had all the time in the world. "Oh, Nigel left early this morning."

Carly could sense that something felt off. Normally, Anne wouldn't sit down for breakfast before she did.

Anne had always catered to her and went out of her way to please her. However, she was acting differently today.

"Where did he go?" Carly asked again.

Anne took a sip of milk before saying casually, "I'm not sure, but Eren came by this morning. If I'm not mistaken, he was holding some kind of report from the hospital."

A report from the hospital?
