Chapter 1454:

Jeanette tried to blink back tears, but they continued to stream down her face. A wave of conflicting emotions overwhelmed her—gratitude, unease, and fear. The more kindness she received from Kallie and Jake, the more she dreaded the possibility of being hated by Lacey.

Kallie, unaware of Jeanette’s inner turmoil, attributed her somber mood to her anxieties about school.
