“At the scene of the car accident?” Esther studied the card, pausing before asking, “Does this card suggest a
connection between the people behind the car accident and the incident involving my father?”
Gabriel said in a hushed tone, “I do have such suspicions, but I lack evidence to definitively link these two.”
“I’ll find the evidence.”
Esther focused on the card, the vividly blooming flower of sin fueling anger within her. Flowers of sin like this should
vanish from the world forever.
“When you pass the assessment and officially join, you’ll have access to more evidence.”
Esther declared solemnly, “If there’s nothing else, I want to rest now.”

tomorrow.”
“Got it.”
Esther had spent the past few days with Logan, not seeing Felix, Sunshine, or Jacob for a while. With over ten hours
of free time, she drove to Sanderson castle.
Due to the late hour, the children were already asleep.
After a shower, Esther quietly entered Felix’s bedroom.
Felix and Sunshine, being young, didn’t have separate bedrooms like Jacob. They often slept wherever they were
playing—sometimes in Felix’s room, other times in Sunshine’s, and occasionally in Esther’s.
Although Esther tiptoed carefully, not wanting to disturb the children’s rest, Felix opened his eyes when she sat
beside him. He gazed at her in the night, his eyes as innocent as a fawn’s.
Feeling a bit guilty, Esther gently touched Felix’s small face, saying, “Felix, sorry for waking you up.”
Felix didn’t speak—he just buried his head in Esther’s embrace, holding her tightly. Sniffing the familiar scent that
was uniquely his mother’s on Esther, Felix felt incredibly secure and at ease.
Esther stroked Felix’s hair, coaxing, “Did you have a bad dream?”
Felix shook his head. He lifted his head from Esther’s embrace, looking at her. He hoped Esther would always be
happy like this, never lying motionless in bed again.
Felix took out his phone, his little fingers proficiently typing a message.
Felix: [I hope you’re happy.]
Esther placed her forehead gently against Felix’s and ruffled his hair with a smile. “Seeing Felix makes me very

Felix: [Go to sleep now. You have dark circles, not pretty.]
“Felix, even if I have dark circles, they’re the prettiest.”
Recently, Esther hadn’t been sleeping well. She and Logan had to keep an eye on those people. Even though they
had been taking turns sleeping, her sleep wasn’t sound, with lingering concerns.
“Alright, I’ll sleep with Felix and Sunshine.”
Esther slept between Felix and Sunshine. Almost as soon as her head touched the pillow while feeling the incredibly
comforting scent from the children, she fell into a deep sleep.
Felix saw that Esther’s brows were still furrowed even when she slept.
