Chapter 41

The old man’s brows knitted together. "Why? What’s the issue? I was told she’s recovering well. In fact, I heard she’s fine now." His tone carried a hint of impatience, though it was laced with genuine concern.

Karvel shook his head. "That’s what I thought too. But yesterday, the doctors detected another illness—something they say needs to be treated immediately."

Grandpa Jackson’s grip tightened slightly on the head of his cane. "Another illness? What kind?"

Karvel’s voice dropped, his eyes briefly flicking toward Mrs. Amelia’s bed before returning to his grandfather. "They’re still running more tests, but it’s serious enough that they won’t let her leave until treatment begins."

A tense silence followed, broken only by the soft hum of medical equipment in the room. Grandpa Jackson exhaled slowly, his expression hardening—not in anger, but in resolve. "Then whatever needs to be done… we’ll do it. She’s not going to suffer because of delays or lack of resources."

    Patricia walked quickly down the hall of the police station. Her heels clicked against the floor, her face tight with anger and worry. She stopped in front of the small room where her daughter sat.Through the glass, Liza sat with her arms crossed, her face full of pride and defiance. When Patricia entered, the girl didn’t even look up.“I told you not to come here,” Liza said sharply. “I said I’d handle things on my own.”Patricia shut the door behind her and gave a bitter laugh. “Handle things on your own? Oh yes, I can see just how well you’ve handled things. Look at where you are, Liza! Sitting in a police station, accused of framing your own sister!”Liza rolled her eyes. “You always exaggerate, Mother. It’s not that serious.”“Not that serious?” Patricia stepped closer. Her voice rose slightly. “Do you even know what you’ve done? You dragged your sister’s name through the mud because of jealousy. You made everyone believe Elena did something shameful when you knew she was innoce

    Karvel and Elena arrived at the police station early the next morning.The air outside was cold and gray, the kind of morning that carried a heavy silence.Morrison followed behind them, tall and alert as always. His eyes moved around, watching every shadow as if danger could appear at any moment.Inside the station, the halls smelled faintly of coffee and paper. Officers walked past, some nodding in greeting. Elena’s heart was heavy. She didn’t know what to expect today.When they entered the waiting area, a familiar voice called out.“Elena! My daughter!”Elena turned sharply. Patricia stood near the reception desk, looking pale and worn. Her eyes were red from crying.“Mother?” Elena whispered in surprise.Patricia rushed forward and took her hands. “Elena, please. Tell them to let Liza go. She’s your sister. She made a mistake, but she doesn’t deserve this.”Karvel’s tone was calm but firm. “Mrs. Patricia, this isn’t just a mistake. Liza framed Elena for something serious.”Patric

    Day moved slowly, filled with heavy silence. After the morning conversation with Karvel, Elena stayed at home, unable to focus on anything. She tried to read, to clean, even to water the flowers near the window, but her hands felt weak and her thoughts kept drifting back to what Karvel had told her earlier.Her grandmother… another grandson… secrets hidden for years.Every word replayed in her mind like a storm that refused to fade.By afternoon, the house felt too quiet. The ticking clock was the only sound that filled the air. Elena sat on the couch, staring at the untouched cup of tea beside her. The steam had long disappeared, leaving only the bitter scent behind.She sighed and whispered to herself, “Why does everything in this family have to be so complicated?”The weight in her chest grew heavier. She didn’t understand why Karvel had suddenly brought all these things up. Maybe he was hiding something too. Or maybe he was trying to protect her from something worse. Either way, t

    "How are you feeling now?" Karvel asked gently, handing Elena a cup of tea. His voice carried both worry and care. "Drink that. It’ll help you relax."Elena looked at him for a moment before taking the cup. Her hands trembled slightly as she lifted it to her lips. The warmth of the tea soothed her, but it didn’t calm the storm inside her chest. She took a small sip and placed the cup back on the table. Her eyes met Karvel’s, sharp and searching."I think it’s time you tell me everything I need to know," she said quietly, but there was strength in her tone.Karvel sighed. He had been expecting that question. The air between them grew heavy, filled with things unsaid. He sat down across from her, rubbing his hands together slowly before he spoke."I’ve been trying to find out who was behind my kidnapping," he began. "It wasn’t random, Elena. Someone planned it carefully. Someone wanted me gone, and I need to know why."Elena’s brows furrowed. "Do you have any leads? Did the police find

    “I’m okay now,” Elena said softly as Karvel helped her sit up on the hospital bed. Her voice was weak but steady. She looked at him with tired eyes that still managed to shine with warmth.Karvel’s hand stayed behind her back, supporting her gently. “You should rest a little more,” he said in a low voice. “The doctor said you still need to recover completely before leaving.”Elena shook her head. “I’ve been here for too long. I just want to go home, Karvel. I hate the smell of this place.”Karvel smiled faintly. “You really haven’t changed,” he said. “Always stubborn.”“Maybe,” she whispered, smiling back. “But I’ll feel better once I’m home with you.”Karvel’s expression softened. He brushed a strand of hair from her face. “Alright, my love,” he said gently. “If that’s what you want, we’ll go home now.”He stood up, helped her put on her shoes, and reached for her bag. “Take it slow,” he reminded. “Don’t rush.”Elena nodded, holding onto his arm for balance. Together, they walked out

    Patricia was in the living room, folding laundry when she heard a knock at the door. It was already late in the evening, and she wasn’t expecting anyone. The knock came again, louder this time.“Who could that be?” she muttered to herself, walking toward the door.She opened it and froze. Two policemen stood outside, dressed in uniform, their faces serious.“Good evening, ma’am,” one of them said politely.Patricia blinked in confusion. “Good evening… sorry, how may I help you?”“We’re here for Miss Liza Robert,” the policeman said.Patricia’s eyes widened. “Liza? That’s my daughter. Is there any problem?”Before the officer could reply, Robert came down the stairs, tying the belt of his robe. “Who’s at the door?” he asked, frowning when he saw the policemen. “What’s going on here?”Patricia turned to him helplessly. “They say they’re here for Liza. I don’t understand what’s happening.”Robert’s expression darkened. “I said it! This girl has been becoming too reckless lately. Always m
