Aurelia approached, wrapping her arms around Ramona's shoulders. "Sweetheart, you must have been scared these past few days, right?" Her voice was gentle like a mother's, devoid of any scolding tone.
At her words, tears immediately welled up in Ramona's eyes.
"I'm so sorry, Ms. Aurelia. | did something wrong. | never should have tried to hurt Kane. | didn't realize it was a superbug. | thought it was poison. | diluted it and got a little on my hand, thinking only a touch wouldn't be lethal, just enough to make Kane sick so | could explain myself to the kidnappers." Aurelia gently stroked her hair. "Child, it isn't your fault. Those bad people are to blame. You're still a child. You shouldn't have to suffer like this." Ramona couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears, her sobs heartbreaking and unstoppable, expressing all the pent-up injustice and fear she had been carrying.
These past days were too much for her to bear.
Aurelia soothed her, patting her back. How could such a little girl like her remain calm when she was alone in a foreign country and faced such horror? Even adults would be overwhelmed and lost in such circumstances.
"Honey, I've told you that your dad and William's father are good friends. Here in Elysium, we're your family. We're working on rescuing your parents, and we'll get them out." Her words brought immense comfort to the child, who felt a sense of security in her warm embrace, something she had never experienced in this foreign land.

Ramona sniffled. "But Kane and William won't want to be my friends anymore, right?" Though she had initially approached them with ulterior motives, she did want their friendship.

The waiter brought them the food.
Aurelia served Ramona a slice of sizzling steak. "Hungry? Go on, eat up. And if those kidnappers contact you in the next few days, letknow right away, and I'll help you deal with them." "Okay." Ramona nodded."Ms. Aurelia, who exactly are those bad people?" "They're part of an international dark organization, with a biological laboratory at their disposal, specializing in poisons," Aurelia explained nonchalantly.
Ramona's eyes widened in horror. "Will they poison my mommy and daddy?" "Don't worry. Mr. Heninger can counteract their toxins," assured Aurelia, implying that there is a counterforce for every force.
For Tanya, bringing Skyler to Elysium was a grave mistake, and she knew it, so she was desperate to get him back.
Ramona gasped in admiration. "Mr. Heninger is so cool." He had also saved Rocky. This is exclusive content from (Sw). Please read it on to support the author and the translation team! Aurelia smiled.
