Yulia and Hannia had a good relationship since childhood, so replaceing Hannia wasn't too difficult.

Of course, the call didn't go through. Seated in the car. Yulia letta WhatsApp voice note, "Hey, Hannia, it's Yulia. Are you available now? I really need to talk to you. It's urgent. Call me back the second you hear this, please!" Yulia indeed sounded a bit anxious. With that, she just sat in the car waiting. She was betting on their years of friendship with Hannia.

Five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes, twenty-five minutes ticked by. Finally, at the half-hour mark, Hannia responded: [Yulia, what's going on? You sound a bit anxious.]

Yulia saw Hannia's reply, her expression softened a bit. She texted: [Hannia, you finally replied. It's hard to explain over WhatsApp. Can you come out to meet me? You pick the place. It's really serious and urgent!] This time, Hannia replied quickly: [Alright, but I can't stay out too long. Let's meet at this spot.]

This message made Yulia breathe a sigh of relief.

Half an hour later, at a café not far from Nolan's apartment, Yulia met up with Hannia. They each ordered a cup of coffee and sat face to face.

"Yulia, what's up? It's been ages since we last met, and you sounded really urgent. What's happening?" asked Hannia,

Yulia took a sip of her coffee and nodded at Hannia. "Hannia, something happened to the Hawkins family! Your grandpa might be at risk of losing a limb."

Hannia's eyes flickered with disbelief, and her fingers curled slightly. "How could that happen? Hasn't he always been healthy? Is it some incurable disease? Late-stage cancer? Advanced diabetes?"

Yulia looked somewhat serious and shook her head. I'm not sure. Both the doctors and I have looked into his condition, but we can't determine the cause."

Hannia pressed her lips together. "Is that so?"

Seeing Hannia lost in thought, Yulia took her hand. "Come back with me. Let's check on your grandpa. The Hawkins family is in a tough spot. Your sister isn't around and your mom's at a loss. With your grandpa like this, things don't look good." "But even if I go back, there's nothing I can do," Hannia sighed, pulling her hand away from Yulia's tight grip.

Yulia looked at her and pleaded, "I know you don't want to go back, but they're your family. You can't forget where you came from. Consider it a favor to me. Go back and take a look. I promise to bring you back, okay?"

Hannia hesitated, lowering her head as conflicting emotions battled within her. After all, it was the place that nurtured her, her foundation and home.

A few minutes later, she lifted her head and nodded at Yulia. "Alright, I'll go back with you to have a look, but then I'm coming right back."

Yulia let out a breath as if a weight had been lifted, her mood brightening instantly. "Okay"

On Carson's private island, Cherise was diligently helping Kitten with its fleas when her phone rang.

Once the call connected, Crow's voice came through. "Hey, boss got word from the hospital that Garrick might have to get his left foot amputated. It sounds like the Hawkins family is about to fall apart. 08:59 Thu, Dec 19

"However, they managed to keep the news tightly under wraps, leaving outsiders clueless and turning away quite a few visitors. Mrs. Muller arrived this morning and hasn't come out since."

"Got it! Prepare the lab equipment. We'll head to GlobalVision Croup tomorrow. The holidays are over. It's time to start tackling things one by one," Cherise said, hanging up and giving a slight smile.

She gently petted Kitten's big head. "He has done so many terrible things. Just losing one foot isn't enough, right? My mentor lost both of his legs for no reason. Kitten, do you agree? Come on Let's go get you some tasty snacks." Inside the room. Carson sat at the desk, writing. Cherise walked over and sat across from Carson.

Carson looked up at her, put down his pen, and smiled kindly, "Cherise, have you finally decided to face reality?"

Cherise nodded as she looked at him. "Yes, I'm ready and I'm planning to start taking action tomorrow. I'm not sure if I will make it, but I'm confident"

"Alright. If you want to do it, then go ahead. Just let me know if can help, but I doubt you'll need me. You and your husband are pretty capable," Carson chuckled.

Cherise smiled softly, glancing at the fresh buds on the branches outside the window. She walked over to the window and made a phone call.

"Hello, Cherise!" Jason greeted her on the phone.

"Hey, Jason, have you got everything ready?" asked Cherise.

Jason said confidently, "Yeah, it's all set. See you at Global Vision Group tomorrow."

"Okay." With that, Cherise hung up the phone.

Cherise gazed into the distance, took a deep breath, and pressed her lips together. Her expression was both calm and complex.
