Calebâs demeanor softened even further, and he said, âI will return soon if you behave well and take your medication every day.
â
âOkay, I understand.
â The boyâs voice carried a hint of despondency.
Carlos, who was standing beside Caleb, greeted Harry with a remark,
âHey, Harry! Itâs been a while since we last saw each other.
When we return, Iâll bring you some new toys, alright?â
âAlright! Thank you! Youâre the best!â
The boyâs voice exhibited a hint of newfound energy, albeit somewhat subdued.
Observing that the boy was not in the best state, Caleb refrained from further conversation and swiftly ended the call.
His gentle demeanor was a stark contrast to his previous self, and it momentarily captivated me, leaving me in a trance-Like state.
Who was the boy to Caleb?
And, why was Caleb so gentle to him?
Debraâs POV:
Suddenly, the image of the child in Calebâs possession crossed my mind.
I pondered if it were possible that the boy could beâ¦
âDebraâs daughter and Harry seem to be around the same age.

The sound of Carlosâs voice emerged from the room, breaking into my reverie.
âTheir paths shall never cross.
â Calebâs response was swift and icy.
At the mere mention of Elena, his demeanor underwent an abrupt transformation.
The tenderness he had just displayed vanished without a trace, replaced instead by an unsettling intensity.
His eyes emanated an unnerving chill.
It made my heart heavy with sadness.
âBut, why?â Carlos inquired with genuine curiosity.
âElena is Harlanâs daughter, not mine.
Thereâs no reason for her to cross paths with Harry.
I intend to request that Harlan take her away.
I have no desire for anyone to share Debraâs Love with me.
â
The manner in which Caleb uttered those words conveyed an air of unquestionable certainty, as if it were an inherent and expected course of action for him.
He continued, âThe purpose behind todayâs visit was to expedite Debraâs recovery.
Debra will be my Luna.
I refuse to allow another personâs child to impede upon our relationship.
â
The shock washed over me, rendering me immobile and frozen in my current position.
Prior to his statement, I had presumed that Caleb had changed.
Never did I anticipate that he would deceive me and harbor a desire to separate me from my own daughter.
