Caden, understanding his symptoms, whispered, “There’s no need. It’s likely just a stomach problem. I’ll take some medicine at home.”

Hank, visibly upset, said, “You’re spitting up blood, and you want to postpone treatment? What if your condition deteriorates? How will you face Ms. Bennett? Remember, Ciara isn’t getting any younger…”

Caden, exhausted, shut his eyes. Tired of the persistent urging, he said, “Alright, take me to the hospital.”

The medical examination revealed an acute stomach upset, which had led to minor gastric bleeding.

The doctor commented, “This looks pretty bad. You must be in considerable pain. Why did you wait to seek help until it got this severe?”

Caden remained stoic. The physical discomfort paled in comparison to the emotional torment he endured. He avoided rest and tirelessly worked because Alicia’s haunting image, the accident, and their lost child plagued him whenever he tried to relax. His heart was shattered, overshadowing any concern for his physical well-being.

When Hank came back with the prescribed medicine, he asked softly, “Mr. Ward, should we let Ms. Bennett know about this?”

Caden took a moment before replying, “What would be the point?”

“She’s upset, but she might still care about you. This could be a chance to win her back, don’t you think?”

Caden looked down and replied, “No, that won’t be necessary.” Strategies like that would only be effective for minor disputes. Informing her now would likely irritate her further.

“Keep this to yourself,” Caden instructed before he headed back to his apartment alone.

As soon as he opened the door, Cade, who had been well looked after by the housekeeper, came bounding over. Caden knelt and caressed its head tenderly. Cade nuzzled him and then circled behind him. Its tail stopped wagging and drooped when it saw Alicia wasn’t there. It gazed up at Caden, head tilted, whimpering softly as if to inquire about her whereabouts.

A bitter sensation welled up in Caden’s throat as he shook his head in response.

The Moss family was engulfed in their own chaos. They had made a hurried trip to Terriland last time, only to find they were too late. Yolanda had already been taken away by Marlon.

At first, Yolanda had only faked her disappearance to worry Caden, but now, she was truly missing.

Marlon returned with just two severed hands. Dorian instantly recognized them as belonging to his daughter and was so overcome with emotion that he became bedridden for weeks. During this time, he had his people search for Yolanda, but she seemed to have disappeared completely.

Regina, on the other hand, stayed composed. She visited him one day, bringing gifts and maintaining a cool, detached presence.

Feeling distant, Dorian, weak and vulnerable, said to her, appreciative of her visit but longing for more, “Regina, something terrible has happened to Yolanda.” His heart was shattered.

With a slight smile, Regina responded, “She has only herself to blame. Don’t carry the guilt.”
