Bella showed a sweet smile, but she keenly noticed that Aunt Mila's complexion was off.

"Aunt Mila, are you feeling unwell?" Bella stepped into the room and asked softly.

Mila wiped her cold cheeks and gave a bitter smile. "Since Wyatt was ill, I've been losing sleep every night, so my complexion must look poor."

Bella was sharp and observant. Just now, she had actually eavesdropped on Mila's conversation outside the door.

She vaguely overheard something about following someone and about losing the trail. That was when she realized that something was off, so she stepped closer to eavesdrop.

Bella went over to Mila and asked in a low voice,

“Aunt Mila, you look so worried... Is it because of Hugh?"

Mila's bright eyes widened, her gaze flickering. "Of course, I think of him. That child has suffered so much... I often dream about him..."

Bella's tone suddenly grew serious. "Aunt Mila, tell me the truth. Have you been secretly following Jace?" Mila was stunned. "Bella, how do you know...?"

"I was standing outside earlier and vaguely overheard a bit of your conversation. That was enough for me to guess most of it." Bella held Mila's hand tightly and pressed with concern, "Aunt Mila, have you really been secretly sending people to follow Jace? How did you even find him?!”
