Since she was considered an orphan.
Eleanor and her cohorts hadnât been able to find her weak point.
Lucinda didnât want Noelle to be embroiled in any of it and get hurt.
Lucinda handed over the list like nothing happened.
Once again, Eleanor was rushed to the emergency room.
Despite the doctorâs urgent intervention, her condition had not improved much.
Eventually, Eleanor regained consciousness.
Her swollen eyes fluttered open to meet a tall, suit-clad figure standing before her.
Assuming it was Nathaniel, she clasped his hand tightly and wept.
âNate⦠Iâm so glad youâre here.
Without you, I donât know how I would have made it through this difficult time.
â
The man she held was a little stiff.
âMiss Turner, this is Flynn.
â
Only then did she get a good look at him, and it was a major letdown.
This realization made her cry even more pitifully.
Flynn felt awful seeing her in such a state, and said furiously, âLucinda went too far this time.
She is so cruel to hurt you like this.
Donât worry, Miss Turner.
Iâll help you get through this.
â
But Eleanor remained unmoved by his words, and her eyes were still dull and lifeless.
âWhatâs the point of you helping me? Nate doesnât believe me.
He wonât even visit me in the hospital.
What did I do wrong?â
âYou did nothing wrong.
Itâs him.
He suspected you and is going as far as wanting to investigate what took place thirteen years ago.
â
Eleanor was in disbelief when she heard this.
Nate was looking into what took place thirteen years ago?!
He must have caught wind of something.

Eleanor felt a rush of panic, and her hands started shaking.
Flynn, on the other hand, didnât notice her fear.
He solemnly comforted her, âDonât worry.
Whatever happens, Iâll believe you and help you, no matter what.
Iâll always be on your side.
â
âThank you, Flynn.
â
Touched by his words, Eleanor held his hand tightly and said, âYouâre like family to me.
â
Flynn was overjoyed.
âItâs an honor to be a part of your family!â
Eleanor then gave him a sign to come nearer and spoke quietly in his ear.
