Harlee's efforts in rescuing her from despair and Tonya's mentorship in medicine had made Serena who she was. Serena wasn't unloved or unwanted. With this realization, Serena suddenly saw herself as the luckiest person alive. She might lack family warmth, but she was enriched by a circle of genuine friends and mentors.
"Don't overthink it. When the baby in my tummy is born, you can return to the Island and continue your important work," Harlee suggested, ruffling Serena's hair affectionately. The Happer family from Baythorn was nothing more than a ridiculous chapter in Serena's life.
"Okay," Serena replied softly, her resolve to move forward stronger than ever. She was determined not to disappoint Tonya's teachings in medicine, committing her skills to protect their community for life.

"Has she thought it through?" Rhys stretched out on the bed, his gaze fixed on Harlee. The soft glow from the small lamp brushed across the right side of his face, mixing warm and cool tones in a way that somehow made him even more captivating.
"Not quite, but she's less stubborn than before. She no longer sees herself as the unwanted child she once thought she was." As she spoke, Harlee retrieved a ledger from the nightstand's drawer and started to peruse it meticulously.
"Why are you going through a ledger this late at night?" "Didn't we finish registering the Twilight Group? I need to check the finances. Otherwise, who knows if I might squander our entire fortune?" Harlee said, half-jokingly.
