I'll be waiting for you in front of the stage. Don't disappoint me."He stood up, then glanced briefly at Adrian. "Mr. Reid, nice to meet you. I hope we can talk more after this."Adrian nodded respectfully.After Prof. Knight left, Adrian, who had been silent for a while, asked, "What's wrong, Elys? Why did you suddenly get anxious?"He knew Elysia's expressions very well. And he easily noticed that Elysia was in trouble.Elysia was startled when Adrian spoke to her, especially since he noticed her anxiety.

Adrian immediately pulled his rod, having successfully caught a fish.Ansel cheered happily, "Wow, that fish is so big!"The fish flopped around in the swan boat, then Adrian put it into the bucket.Not long after, Ansel's rod started moving. "Daddy Adrian! I think I got a fish!"With all his strength, Ansel pulled his rod. But the fish didn't seem to want to give up and struggled to escape. Adrian held Ansel's rod and reeled in the line. The fish emerged from the lake's surface.Ansel's eyes sparkled with joy, "Wow, my fish is bigger than Daddy Adrian's fish!"Adrian laughed, then put the fish into the bucket.Ansel commented, "This must be because Mommy Evelina was singing. The fish got interested in coming closer to our lines!"Evelina laughed, "Oh, is that so."Ansel nodded confidently. "Of course, Mommy Evelina, your voice is the best!"Evelina smiled, "Thank you, Ansel."Ansel looked into the bucket. "In that case, sing again, oka

Reyna's hands clenched tightly. "Why is that answer important?""Does it have anything to do with your current health?""If I don't answer, will you get sick?"Adrian answered, "Yes. The more defensive you are, the more it shows you're hiding something from her.""And if she knows the truth? Maybe yes, she will get sick. Heartbroken, I think."Reyna's face grew even paler. Her hands trembled, but she still tried to smile."I don't know what you mean."Adrian looked at her sharply. "You know exactly what I mean."Calista stared at her friend with teary eyes. "Reyna... what does he mean?"Reyna shook her head quickly. "Nothing! He's just guessing! This is crazy!"But her voice trembled. Too obvious.Adrian stood up, walked toward the photo shelf.
