Chapter 921:
“Did you?” Hadley responded with a warm smile. “Well, I'm here now, and | missed you so much too.”
“Mommy.” Joy looked up with hopeful eyes. “Mr. Flynn didn’t come. He promised but he didn’t show up. He's a
bad guy!”
Hearing this, Hadley felt a pang in her heart...
“No, sweetheart.” Hadley settled onto the couch with Joy cradled in her arms and soothed her gently. “He was
here last night. You were sleeping so deeply, he didn’t want to disturb you.”
“Yes,” Elissa added. “That's true.”
“Oh, really?” Joy's face fell slightly. “I missed it because | fell asleep...”
To lift her daughter's spirits, Hadley grabbed her phone and showed her a video from the previous night. “Look,
Joy. Here he is holding you last night, and look, he even set off fireworks just for you.”
“Wow...” As Joy watched the video, her face lit up with a delighted laugh. “Haha! Really! Joy... that’s my name!”
“Yes.” Hadley patted her daughter's little head. “He did all this just for you.”
“Yes!” Joy's smile widened. Her eyes sparkled with happiness as she snuggled closer into her mother’s embrace.
“He likes me!”

from your trip. You should go hand rest.”
“No.” Linda shook her head resolutely.
“I'll stay here with you and Eric. We've gotten through tough times together since we were children, and this
tis no different.”

“Listen,” Ernest said, his expression serious and his tone resolute. “Grandma doesn’t know about any of this yet.
You should head back to avoid making her suspicious. Stay with her and keep her company.”
Nyla’s health had been fragile, and they had chosen not to tell her about the situation yet.
Perhaps Eric would regain consciousness soon and spare her the worry. It wouldn't be too late to inform her then.
“Besides...” Ernest's gaze drifted to his brother, lying still on the hospital bed. “We can’t predict when Eric will
wake up. We can’t both be here all the time. We should take turns.”
Linda saw the logic in his suggestion and nodded. “I'll head back for now.”
“Alright.”
As she stood to leave, Linda paused and suddenly turned to Ernest. “I rushed back and didn’t get the chance to
ask. How have you been?”
Ernest was caught off guard for a moment.
The image of Elissa briefly crossed his mind...
He gave a slight nod. “I've been om
