A nurse came in to change the dressing on Yvette's face after Terrence left. Xavier had also returned to take her home by then.

After getting into the car, he said, "I've already sent someone to investigate that man. We should be able to hear something soon as long as he's in Tirion."

"Okay," Yvette replied with a nod. She had also instructed Ray to assign someone specifically to investigate around Zoey and Marlene.

Noah threw himself into Yvette's arms as soon as they were back in Dewberry Manor. "Is Zac alright, Mom?" The articles had gone viral online, so he'd heard about it too.

Yvette immediately comforted him, saying, "He's fine. He's already gone to Mr. Tristan's house with Kiki."

Noah was finally relieved. He noticed the bandage on her face and asked in confusion, "What happened to your face, Mom?"

Afraid that he might worry, Yvette lied, "I accidentally scratched myself. But don't worry; the doctor said it'll heal in a few days."

Being a thoughtful boy, Noah naturally did not believe her words. But he knew that there was no use pressing her further since she would never tell him the truth. "You have to be more careful, Mom." Yvette nodded and replied, "Alright."

Noah then looked toward Xavier and said, "Please stop wandering around at night anymore, mister. Otherwise we'll have to look for you."

Xavier replied, "Okay." He was a little more patient toward Noah now.
