StarNovelChapter 1166 A month ago, Crystal had pulled sstrings and pre-ordered a decade's worth of medication, which would be delivered annually to Reflections Villa.
When Louisa picked up the phone, she broke down into uncontrollable tears. The maturity and empathy of Crystal cut into her heart like a sharp knife.

"Hello, Mrs. Collins, are you okay?" Seeing that Louisa's wave of sorrow was far from over, Arabella excused herself to change out of her sterile suit and sanitize her hands.
Romeo prepared a bowl of warm soup, ready to serve it to her as soon as she cback. "Here, drink some." From last night at 10 o'clock to tonight, Arabella had been working for a straight 21 hours without a break, either trying to save Crystal or Carol.
In between, she had barely had a bottle of milk, let alone a chance to sit down or catch her breath.
Seeing the tired redness in her eyes, Romeo murmured sympathetically, “The chef has prepared dinner fresh.
Letfeed you." Arabella drank a bow! of soup, already feeling somewhat exhausted. "I'll speak to Clark for a bit. Then I'll leave" “Alright.” Romeo thought to himself that the girl must be completely worn out, too tired to eat, which made him feel even more sympathetic.
“Bella, Louisa noticed that her daughter looked quite haggard, hastily wiped away her tears and lovingly said, “You must be exhausted.

Why did those men have to be so cruel to Logan, Taylor, and Crystal? They had three hostages. Why weren't they simply using them to force him, or Carol, or Bella to show up? Why did they have to torment those three hostages so mercilessly? What did they gain from all this? “Before, they wanted to capture the people close to us to force us to reveal ourselves,” Arabella explained in a soft voice. "But that's not the case anymore." Clark looked at her, his eyes red and swollen, not quite understanding.
