Poppy stood behind Lily, her heart aching as she looked at Lily's trail and solitary figure. 1.ily always masked her vulnerability, presenting a façade of strength.
Belinda was such a kind person. Why diditate always seem to be so cruel to ber? Shifting her gaze to Loid, a cold glint flashed in Poppy's eyes. She thought bitterly that he had failed to protect Lily. So, he didn't deserve to be with her.
Stefan and Melanie were worried about Lily's condition and took her back to Anmer Heights personally.
"Lily, Stefan and I will talk to your school and arrange for stoff. You should take a few days to rest. Let Loid take you on a trip in a few days to take your mind off things.
"It's okay if you don't pass the university entrance exams this year. You can repeat a year if you want to continue studying. But if you don't want to study, that's fine too. You should do whatever makes you happy." Melanie was worried that Lily might remain trapped in her grief, unable to move on. She didn't dare to bring up Belinda in the conversation as she knew how painful it was to Lily.
Melanie thought that the best way to help Lily was to encourage her to take a break.
Lily gave her a poised smile. Thanks, Melanie. But there's no need to arrange a leave for me. I'll go back to school tomorrow." "But.. Are you sure?" Melanie's voice wavered with concern as she looked at Lily, worried about her emotional state.
"Grandma wantedto graduate," Lily replied softly.
Melanie paused for a moment and then nodded. “If that's the case, then go back to school. But please, take care of yourself. "Alright." Melanie sensed that Lily wasn't in the mood for further conversation, so she and Stefan took their leave.

Shaun glanced toward the staircase leading to the second floor, his brows furrowing "Mr. Laurier, have you noticed that Lily has changed?" Loud slightly raised his gaze. Leaning back on the couch, he held a cup in one hand, his expression calm. "Yeah, I have." "Madam Hutchinson's death hit her hard. I have a feeling she's going to do something big," Shaun remarked as he rubbed his earlobe, his face heavy with concern Loud's eyes drifted toward the second floor. He was lost in thought for a moment.
Then, he looked back at Shaun and Daniel. "How's the investigation coming along?" Daniel straightened up and responded, "It's quite a challenge." "Hmm?" Loid's eyes narrowed, his demeanor instantly changing.
Daniel shivered slightly and hurriedly said, "I've checked possible channels to the hospital and the Medical Research Institute, but there's no trace at all. The hospital's surveillance was malfunctioning that day, and there was only one person on duty at the pharmacy. He confirmed that no one entered the hospital that day."
Taking a deep breath, he continued, "The special antidotes in the Medical Research Institute were taken byla mysterious figure. No one in the institute is saying anything about it, and there's no record of the antidotes being taken. It's like these people never existed... "Moreover, the underground forces of the ten cities surrounding Lagersfield City attacked that night. All ten cities were taken over by someone, and this person's identity is mysterious. After several days of investigation, all I found was 'Mr. Ken. "" After pausing for a moment, Daniel continued seriously, "It seems Ms. Brooks' identity has been exposed, and this 'Mr. Ken' guy is targeting her."
Lold squinted, pondered for a moment, and then stood up. "Deploy all our resources on the dark web and The dark web and Infiltrate these ten cities. I need the most accurate Intelligence. Also, monitor the movements of the Laurler, Knight, Levenson, and Woodley families. Letknow it something is going on." X
