“Jensen didn’t get any advantage over my sister-in-law, don’t worry. But | did hear he picked up on a clue about
her being switched more than twenty years ago. | vaguely caught a name- it sounded like Rachel.”
“Rachel?” Baron's eyes narrowed.
“Find her! Even if we have to turn Ocean City upside down, we must track this Rachel down.”
“Yes. But what about this crazy woman? She was being chased through the streets, and honestly, she doesn’t
seem mentally stable.”
As Yvonne spoke, she gestured toward the unconscious woman.
Baron stepped forward, pushed her tangled hair aside, and froze when he saw her face.
“It's her?”
“Who is it?”
Yvonne leaned over for a look and immediately stiffened. “No way! Isn't this Dr. Johnson's wife? Wasn't she
locked up by Jensen’s people?”
“Take her to the emergency room. She's in bad shape-I need to treat her with acupuncture.”
Baron's face had grown grim.
Dr. Johnson had disappeared, and his wife had been captured after attempting to assassinate Sharon. Baron had
been trying to get her out of Jensen’s grasp, but could never find her exact location. He never expected Yvonne
would stumble upon her in the street.
Yvonne found it surreal herself. She quickly carried the woman into the emergency room.

“She's stable for now, but her family needs to be contacted. Figure out a way to reach them. And, your parents
are here. You're Uncle Xenon'’s daughter-you should see them.”
Yvonne froze slightly at his words.
“I'll take care of this first.”
“What are you avoiding?” Baron asked bluntly.
Yvonne shifted uncomfortably. “I'm not avoiding anything. I've just been busy.”
“What could be so important? You just don’t want to see your parents, do you?”
His words silenced her.
Seeing her reaction, Baron sighed.
“I know-you blyour parents for separating your uncle and Natalie for over twenty years. You think they're
guilty. But what does that have to do with you? Back then you were only a child. You had no part in it. Your uncle
and cousin don’t blyou. In fact, they still worry about you. At the recognition banquet two weeks from now,
they even plan to announce your identity. Yvonne, you don’t need to carry responsibility that was never yours.
Doing so only makes your sister, your brother, and your uncle feel uncomfortable.”
Her reddened instantly.

“But what if my parents really did those things?”
“Then they've already paid the price. As long as everyone has let it go, no one can hold it against you.”

Baron felt his chest tighten watching her cry.
“Don’t overthink it. If you're not ready to see them, then just follow your heart for now.”
