Scott’s lack of response left Caroline restless, prompting her to leave the company and wait anxiously
outside.
December’s early nightfall brought bone–chilling cold even to those bundled in thick clothes.

After some time, someone finally picked up. Caroline began, “Sco-”

“Ms. Shenton!” They rushed over to help her up.

Neil and Yuliana chatted with Grayson, but Daniella was absent.
Grayson frequently checked the time, growing increasingly agitated as dinner time neared with no sign
of
Daniella.
“I don’t want to wait any longer. We’ll eat without her if she’s not back soon,” Grayson grumbled.
Thomas exchanged a meaningful look with Greta, who gently tried to persuade Grayson. “Dad, let’s
wait a
little longer. It’s normal for her to be delayed during the evening rush hour.”
“Mom, why are you-”
Greta silenced Yuliana with a glance. “Yulia, go check if your cousin is home.”
Although Yuliana did not consider Daniella a true cousin, she reluctantly got up after seeing Grayson’s
