Eileen was very particular about her bed, so she didn’t sleep well that night, drifting in and out of sleep.
It wasn’t until the hotel made a wake-up call that she finally woke up.
As she got out of bed, she noticed that Delilah had already freshened up and was now in front of thevanity mirror, her hair neatly done.
Eileen sat on the bed, with dark circles under her eyes, looking somewhat dazed..
Delilah looked at her through the mirror and reminded her, “Don’t forget that you have to report toschool today. Do you know which class you’re in?”
Eileen pinched the bridge of her nose and responded wearily, “Since you already know, I won’taccompany you then. If you can’t replace your way, feel free to call me later.”
“Okay.”
Delilah had put on makeup that day to conceal the freckles on her face. She put on her black-rimmedglasses and looked at the room key on the table. After a moment of hesitation, she picked it up, slungher bag over her shoulder, and walked out.
As she stepped out of the room, Grayson and Isaac happened to come out as well.
Grayson asked, “Where is Eileen?”
Delilah adjusted her glasses and said, “She just woke up, so let’s not wait for her. We’ll go meetProfessor Combs directly. She won’t get lost on her own.”
Isaac scratched his head and took a deep breath, saying, “I don’t think that’s a good idea. ProfessorCombs specifically reminded us to safely escort her to school first. If we leave her alone, she might getlost since. she’s unfamiliar with her surroundings. How will we explain that? Don’t forget, she is Mrs.Smith. The Smith family funded our trip to Pillere. If we neglect her like this, and she complains… wethree will definitely get an earful.”
Delilah looked at him expressionlessly. “If you want to go, then go by yourself. I don’t have the time.We’re here to compete, not to cater to some socialite. Don’t forget what Professor Combs expects fromus.”
The two of them watched Delilah leave. Grayson laughed and patted Isaac on the shoulder. “Actually,what Delilah said isn’t wrong. Even if you were to fawn over Eileen like a lapdog, she wouldn’t give youa second. glance. She’s already taken, so stop wasting your energy on hopeless causes. You’d bebetter off focusing on winning the competition. If you’re so worried, you can wait for her here. I’ll goahead and grab breakfast with Delilah.” With that, Grayson dashed off.
Isaac was in a state of extreme turmoil. He glanced at his watch, then at the tightly shut room door.After a moment of hesitation, he walked up to the room’s door and raised his hand to knock..
Eileen had just finished freshening up and dressing when she went to open the door. “Isaac,” shegreeted.
Isaac questioned, “Eileen, are you ready? Delilah doesn’t have time to take you to school, so I’ll takeyou there to handle your enrollment paperwork later.”
Eileen nodded. “Give me ten more minutes. I’ll be quick.” She opened the door and invited, “Pleasecome in and have a seat.”

The average temperature in Friyx in June was around twenty degrees. Eileen dressed in a light-colored. cotton and linen long-sleeved top paired with a thin long skirt. Her hair was left loose. Fearingthe night would be chilly, she brought along a knitted cardigan.
As the two of them got into the elevator to go downstairs, Isaac said, “We might not have time forbreakfast, so we’ll just grab something on the go.”
“What about the other two?”
“They probably went straight to the studio after breakfast.”
“Alright.” Eileen was not the type to enjoy causing trouble for others.
Isaac was still a bit reserved, deliberately maintaining a safe distance from Eileen in the elevator.
They arrived at the hotel entrance just as Delilah and Grayson were coming down the elevator afterfinishing their meal. They saw Eileen and Isaac getting into a Bugatti limousine.
The doorman closed the car door, and by the time they stepped out, the car had already left.
Grayson exclaimed in awe, “Wow, such a luxurious car! I’ve never even ridden in one. That guy reallylucked out.”
Holding his hand up to the sunlight, he asked, “Delilah, how are we going to get there? I asked around,and our destination is about twenty to thirty kilometers away.”
It was indeed a bit far.
Grayson turned to the concierge and gave him the address they were heading to, then asked, “Couldyou please tell us if the hotel can arrange for a driver to take us to this location?”
The concierge said, “The private car service will cost two hundred Atharian currency plus an additionalone hundred for service fees.”
Grayson exclaimed, “That’s way too expensive! What about them? We’re with the two who just left.They have a car, so why don’t we?”
The concierge said, “I apologize, sir. This is an exclusive service for our hotel’s VIP guests. The lady isalso a valued member of our hotel. Hence, she enjoys this service for free.”
Grayson asked curiously, “How much does it cost to become a member?”
The other party revealed a friendly smile. “Three million Atharian currency, in cash.”
“What! That’s a lot of money! If I had known, I would have joined her.”
With a slightly cold expression, Delilah said, “It’s hard to get a taxi now. We’ll pay the three hundred, soplease help us call a car.”
Grayson protested, “Hey, don’t mess around! Let’s be frugal with our money since we still have threemonths to go. I don’t want to end up broke before the end of the month.”
Delilah retorted, “Professor Combs did say that all decisions are up to me.”
After Isaac had finished arranging her school enrollment documents, he left. Eileen, fearing he mightnot. be able to get a taxi, asked the driver to take him to his destination.

When it was time for her to finish school, the hotel driver would naturally come to pick her up.
She was currently in the world’s top-tier art academy, which also had the most profound influence in the
realm of art.
Everything around her seemed unfamiliar, but even though she was alone, she knew she had toconquer
her fears.
Meanwhile, in Hulbury.
Fabian reported. “I just received a message from there. Ms. Eileen has successfully enrolled. You cannow be at ease. Mr. Smith.”
Jasper leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes. “Every time she goes out alone, she encountersdanger. Unlike before, make sure someone is always protecting her and prevent her from facing anydanger.”
Fabian nodded. “Don’t worry, Mr. Smith. With bodyguards secretly protecting her, Ms. Eileen will besafe.”
“Have they been found yet?” Jasper’s tone instantly became serious.
Fabian nodded. “We’ve found them, but… Old Mrs. Smith has already taken Nancy and the child to theSmith residence before us. They might have already arrived by now.”
No sooner had Fabian spoken than Jasper received a call from the Smith residence, asking him tocome
over.
This was inevitable. Jasper handed his current tasks over to Fabian, then drove alone to the Smithresidence.
While driving, he felt a sense of panic he had never experienced before. His mind was distracted, andthe faces of Eileen and Nancy haunted his thoughts.
In addition to them, there was also the child.
He first learned about the child’s existence when he saw a paternity test and a photo of a child whoseemed to have appeared out of nowhere, bearing a striking resemblance to him in facial features.
All in all, it left him feeling frustrated and bewildered.
An hour later, he finally arrived at the Smith residence.
As Jasper walked through the door, a small figure clung to his leg before he could even get a good lookaround, calling out to him in a sweet, melodious voice, “Daddy!”
