If she found out that sheâd never recover, it would definitely be a huge blow to her self-esteem.
I returned to the villa with a heavy heart.
âMommy!â When Elena heard the door opening, she immediately looked up and bounded over expectantly.
âHow is Sally?â
Jenifer followed closely behind her with a worried look.
I could see that both of them had been waiting for me for a while now.
I squatted down and stroked my daughterâs hair gently.
âDonât worry.
Sally will be fine.
In fact, Carlos proposed to her today.
â
âBut sheâs badly hurt, right? When will she be okay?â Elena pursed her little pink lips worriedly.
I didnât know how to answer her question.

The truth was so cruel that even I couldnât bear it, let alone the little girl.
I had promised Sally that I would find a way to cure her, but now, there was no way I could fulfill that promise.

âIâm sorry, Debra.
Iâm sorry for what the construction team did.
Iâll try to look for another contractor that we can trust.

âItâs okay.
Itâs not your fault.

Although the Thorn Edge Pack was prosperous and well-developed, I knew that the larger the pack, the more difficult it was to manage.
The Silver Ridge Pack suffered in a similar way previously.
However, what hurt me most was Calebâs seemingly indifferent attitude.
He didnât seem to care so much about the recent problems.
Only when something really threatened his interests-such as Carlosâ leave, or the secret of the newborn babies I was going to reveal-would he pay attention.
Thinking of how he scolded me at the hospital, my heart sank to the pit of my stomach.
