Smiling, Renee confessed, "I grew up in Everheart Manor, so I'm very familiar with its layout. I can get around the

place with my eyes closed, so don't worry." She didn't want to implicate Lisa and get her in trouble.

"Okay, just be careful," Lisa said finally.

"Will do. Get back safely!" Renee waved at Lisa. Once she heard the car drive off, she carefully walked towards the

gate. After keying in the password, she brushed her hands against the things around her, making her way into the

living room. She had strong perception and observation skills, so it wasn't difficult for her to move around her

childhood home.

"Adie! Abby!" Renee opened the door and yelled, grinning happily.

"Mommy!" Abby was drawing upstairs, but when she heard Renee's voice, she ran downstairs excitedly. "It's really

you, Mommy! You're finally home!" Abby threw herself into Renee's arms and hugged her.

Renee caressed Abby's head lovingly and smiled. "Were you good when I wasn't around?"

"Of course! I finally learned how to draw a galaxy. Come, I'll show you!" Like any other kid, Abby's energy was

boundless. She didn't notice anything wrong with Renee as she held Renee's hand and pulled her upstairs.

Renee accidentally tripped on the stairs but caught her footing and made it to Abby's room.

Abby ran fast and fished out the paintings she had made over the past few days. She looked up at her mother,

eager for praise. "Look at my galaxy, Mommy. Isn't it pretty?

Doesn't it look like Van Gogh's painting? Adie said my galaxy is prettier than Van Gogh's!"

"Yes, it's pretty. You're so good at drawing." Renee couldn't see anything, but she still praised Abby. Her heart

twisted painfully in her chest as she realized she'd never be able to see her children's faces and achievements in

the future.

"Why are you still wearing sunglasses at night, Mommy? I have a lot of overlapping colors in this painting, you know.

Can you see them if you're wearing sunglasses?" Abby asked innocently, finally noticing that something was off with

Renee, and that her mother looked uncharacteristically sad.

"Well, my eyes are a little uncomfortable. They can't take too much light, so I feel better when I'm wearing

sunglasses," Renee lied smoothly.

"Oh, you're hurt, Mommy! Did you see a doctor? Does it hurt? Let me have a look..." Abby immediately became

concerned and threw her painting aside as she stood on tiptoe to inspect Renee's eyes.

"I'm okay. I've already seen the doctor." Renee immediately backed away from Abby and tried to feel her

surroundings." Are you alone at home? Where is Adie? Why didn't he come to see me?"
