Following the doctor's examination of Natalie, the people in both Lotus Villa and Hillside
Villa became considerably more cautious about lighting.
Within the shortest time possible, Heather and Stephen had all the lights changed once
again.
Even at night, Natalie wasn't allowed outside. Not just at night. Even during the daytime,
when the sun shone too brightly, Heather wouldn't let Natalie venture out.
This showed just how deeply concerned Heather was for her daughter's eyes.
The doctor had said... Time was limited.
Hence, during this brief period, they had to ensure that nothing overly stimulating would
affect Natalie's eyes.
At night, Lotus Villa was dimly lit. Everyone felt the lights were too low. Natalie, who
already saw everything as a blur, felt the darkness intensify.
"Mom, there's really no need to worry. I can't see anything anyway," sighed Natalie,
speaking the truth.
At this point, she truly couldn't see anything.

"I know it might seem too dim for everyone, but if you can see the strong lights, it would
only further damage your eyes," she reasoned.
Natalie remained silent.
Wasn't such dim lighting also detrimental to those who could see?
After all, she couldn't see anything!
"Listen to me. The lighting will remain like this at least until your surgery is successful,"
Heather insisted with a stern tone.
"Alright," Natalie complied.
Nothing could surpass a mother's concern. As long as it put Heather's mind at ease even a
little, Natalie wouldn't protest.
Later that night, back at Hillside Villa, Lydia and Xyla approached Natalie.
"We've changed the lighting to ensure it won't harm your eyes too much, but you should
still wear your glasses," they advised.
Glasses?!
Natalie nodded. "Alright, I understand."
There were times before when she felt it wasn't too straining and chose not to wear her
glasses.
But now, everything was different.
The doctor's examination had everyone in the Jarvis family on edge once again.
Previously, their anxiety wasn't just about her eyes but also the burn scars on her body.
And now?
Currently, the primary concern was her eyes.
After all, her eyes were more important than anything else.
At night, Lydia and Xyla took extra care as they assisted Natalie with her bedtime routine.
They were overly cautious every step of the way, fearing she might stumble.
"I can still see a little. There's no need for such concern," Natalie reassured them, sensing
their heightened anxiety.
However, she couldn't do anything about it.
Lydia responded, "Madam won't even let you leave Lotus Villa."

It was the truth!
However, Natalie felt reluctant to stay there, considering the increased worry she had
caused Heather at Lotus Villa.
At least here at Hillside Villa, she could have some peace of mind.
"Lydia."
"Yes?"
"If my mom asks, tell her everything is fine with me."
Everything was fine?
Given the struggles when Natalie was caring for Luna, how could Heather not sense
something amiss?
Lydia genuinely felt her heart ache for Natalie.
"Miss, if there's an opportunity for surgery, you should take it, okay?"
"...Alright."
At that moment, Natalie nodded.
After all, she truly felt overwhelmed... when she couldn't see her daughter today.
It was reminiscent of her past life
