Zachary squinted, his face filled with melancholy as helplessness washed over him.
Sasha picked up a photograph of herself with Chris and placed it next to her pillow. She looked at Zachary, her
smile radiating happiness. "One day, I'll make this man lie next to me for real!"
"Sasha!"
"You'll give me your blessing, won't you?" she asked.
Zachary gazed at her for a moment, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
"You should give me your blessing if you treat me like your own daughter!" she pressed on.
He sighed. "If you were truly my daughter, I'd never harm a hair on your head..."
"What?"

Zachary walked over and affectionately patted her head, a reminiscent look in his eyes. At that moment, he
recalled the time when Krystal had saved him many years ago.
Krystal had also patted his head, wiping the blood from his forehead, and had asked with a mysterious smile, "Are
you willing to serve me from now on?"
Zachary's disappointment toward Sasha slowly faded from his eyes, replaced by boundless love.
It was like a father doting on his daughter. Regardless of her mistakes or her eccentricities, he would stand by her
no matter what.
"What did you say, Zachary?"
"Nothing. I said... you'll always be my daughter."
"That's wonderful!" She smiled triumphantly and smugly. "Please, Zachary, remove the eyesore for me.
Let me become the only one in the world!" -
Lena and Chris visited the hospital again to see Nala.
They hadn't reached a conclusion in their previous discussion. Lena had pondered it for a while. She hadn't seen
Lina in the hospital that day, but Lina was convinced otherwise. Something was amiss.
"Even if someone closely resembles you, how could Pammy mistake her for you when you're so close?" Chris
wondered.
She contemplated this. "Is there a camera outside the bathroom?"
"Yes." Chris nodded, "It's a shared hospital. Zuko's grandfather is one of the shareholders. I've asked him to look
into it."

From outside, they spotted Alexander caring for Nala. It was a Sunday, no school, and a precious day off. Instead of
playing outdoors like typical kids, he chose to spend time in the ward.
He was reading a book to Nala, who was giggling without understanding their conversation.
Their innocence was truly something to envy.
When Alexander noticed Lena and Chris outside the ward, he gestured for them to step aside.
They followed him to a corner in the corridor.
"You're quite impressive, young man!" Chris ruffled Alexander's hair as soon as he saw him. "You're so sweet with
little Nala!"
Alexander blushed and then turned his attention to Lena. "She's due for her shot soon, so I asked you both to come.
No one should be in the ward when it happens, as it might disturb the doctor."
"Understood," Lena said.
Alexander suddenly frowned. "By the way, what happened earlier, sis? How did you frighten Nala?"
Lena was taken aback, unsure of how to respond.
