Barbara observed Lydia's contemplative expression and said, "Since you think my designs are inadequate, I'll take them back and make some revisions, though they might not be as good as Mona's"

After leaving, Barbara glanced back at Lydia and smiled slightly

Barbara thought, 'I don't dare to do that to Mona. But Lydia dos I may let her take care of it.

Lydia sat alone, gazing at the television in the distance, quietly thinking.

Before Mona was dragged into the van, she hurriedly threw her bracelet on the ground, the one Elara had given her, hoping someone would notice she was gone in time.
