In Clusia, at the Evans residence in Jorlandia, the household buzzed with preparations for the upcoming welcome

hparty scheduled for the next day.

With tpressing and aspirations for grandeur, every detail needed to be meticulously arranged within a single

day, immersing the Evans’ hin a whirlwind of activity.

Elysia had barely settled into her room when her phone rang, displaying Ava’s name. A joyful smile instantly lit

up her face as she eagerly pressed the answer button.

On the other end of the line, Ava’s voice carried a hint of hesitation. “Elysia, have you been well recently?”

I've been doing great, how about you?” Elysia replied warmly.

“I've been good too... Elysia, how are things at the Evans residence?” Ava inquired.

Upon hearing the mention of the Evans residence, Elysia raised an eyebrow, sensing something was amiss. She

adopted a playful tone. “Pretty good, is there something specific you want to know?”

“Not really...” Ava stammered.

“Are you hiding something from me?” Elysia teased.

Gathering her courage, Ava confessed, “Elysia, um... Holden, my crush, reached out toa few days ago and

asked for your address. | gave it to him.”

Her voice trailed off as she said the last sentence, too low for Elysia to respond. Thinking Elysia was upset, Ava

panicked. “Elysia, I'm so sorry. | should have asked for your permission first, but | wasn’t thinking clearly. It's

entirely my fault, please blmy scatterbrained self.

“I just thought, since you and Holden are friends now, he should know. Later, | realized | was wrong. If you didn’t

tell him, what right did | have to?

“It’s all my fault. | promise to keep your secrets next tand never act so foolishly again. Elysia, please don’t

be angry with me, okay?” As Ava continued, her voice wavered with guilt.

From the moment Ava called, Elysia had guessed the issue but remained silent to observe Ava’s reaction. Seeing

Ava’s distress, Elysia knew she had to speak up before Ava broke into tears. The thought of Ava’s tear-streaked

face pained her heart. “Ava, I'm not angry with you.”

Ava paused, sounding uncertain. “Elysia, are you serious?”

“Yes, I'm serious,” Elysia assured her. A spark of light appeared in her eyes as she added, “Actually, | should

thank you.”

“Thank me?” Ava sounded puzzled, unable to comprehend Elysia’s words.

“Yes, thank you. Thank you for helping us clear up the misunderstanding and showinganother side of them.

It turns out | was never forgotten.”

“Elysia, what do you mean by that?” Ava asked, and then quickly realized something. “Elysia, have you

reconciled with the Evans family?”

“Yes, we have. I'm at the Evans residence right now,” Elysia replied.

Ava’s voice, which had been low, suddenly rose with excitement. “Does this mean | didn’t do anything wrong?”

As soon as she said it, she contradicted herself. “No, no, I still did something wrong. | should have asked for your

permission

first, but luckily, it turned out well, which makesfeel so much better.”

“Why are you happier than | am?” Elysia teased.

“Of course I'm happy. You've finally found your family, so no one will bully you anymore,” Ava replied.

Elysia raised an eyebrow slightly, wondering what had given Ava such a misunderstanding.

Before she could ponder further, Ava’s voice cthrough the phone again, now much calmer. “Elysia, even

though | don’t know how the Evans treat you, | hope you can be happy. But if someday they're not nice to you,

then...”

“Then what?” Elysia prompted.

“Then just move out, I'll support you,” Ava vowed.

Elysia chuckled. “How are you going to support me?”

Ava whispered softly, “Oh, right... | do need someone to look afteras well. Well... don’t worry, Elysia, | may

not be able to support you financially, but my family certainly can!”

“I appreciate your kindness, but | don’t think I'll ever need your support,” Elysia replied. Even if she were to

leave the Evans residence, she would be perfectly fine. In fact, she wasn’t planning on leaving at all; this was her

home.

Ava finally grasped the situation, nodding in understanding. Not to mention, being the head of Arcanum House

meant that Elysia likely didn’t have to worry about basic necessities.

“Ava, why don’t you cand see how the Evans family treatsyourself?” Elysia suggested.

Ava raised an eyebrow, inquisitive. “What do you mean?”

“Tomorrow is my welchparty. You have to come,” Elysia insisted.

-Ava’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Of course, I'll definitely be there!”

After hanging up, Elysia called Elena and the Jackson family. Odalyn, still unsure of the situation, remained calm

initially but becincreasingly unsettled as she listened.

Odalyn exclaimed in her heart, ‘Elysia is the Evans family’s daughter in Jorlandia? The Evans family, from

Jorlandia? We have actually adopted her as granddaughter!”

Berenger and Logan were equally shocked by the news.

Having not heard from them for a while, Elysia smiled before adopting a pitiful expression, “Berenger, Odalyn,

are you going to abandonjust because I'm from the Evans family?”

Odalyn’s heart ached at the sound of her voice. “What kind of silly talk is that? How could we ever leave you?

We're just... a bit overwhelmed.”

“Have you cto terms with it now?” Elysia asked.

“Maybe | need a bit more tto process,” Odalyn replied. It wasn’t that she was being melotic; anyone

would need tto adjust to such news.

Odalyn couldn't calm down after ending the call. The thought of meeting the Evans family the next day left her

with a feeling she couldn’t quite articulate.

In the past, they hadn’t had much interaction with the Evans family. Now, she had suddenly becan adoptive

mother to one of their daughters. She wondered if Elysia’s mother would be easy to get along with or if she

would feel like her daughter was being taken away.

Berengerdas unable to calm down. Rumor had it that Edward was a very devoted father. How would he feel

if he becnered his daughter suddenly had a grandfather?

The night, while the Boons family slept peacefully after a busy day, the Jackson family was restless with worry

and stayed poke the entire night.

Warly the next morning, as the sun began to rise, a military vehicle pulled into the Evans residence’s courtyard.

Holden, who was standing by the second-floor window, rushed to Elysia’s room door upon seeing the vehicle and

knocked experly. “Elysia, Yehoshua is back His voice was filled with excitement.

Kiya opened her room door, already dressed in a stunning gown. Her exquisite features were further enhanced

by her mukong, making her even more captivating. Her long hair flowed down to her waist, and the curls framing

her face added a touch of allore.

Holden was so mesmerized that he couldn't tear his gaze away, momentarily lost for words.

Holden, who did you say was back just now? Elysia inquired.
