After dinner, Elisa fell asleep in Leah's arms. Even in her sleep, she clung tightly to Leah's shirt, as if afraid she would leave.
Leah gently pulled a blanket over her, watching her for a long time.
Although Elisa's illness had been caught early, it was still hard to imagine the pain such a small child had to endure.
Leah sighed softly, her thoughts drifting before she remembered something. She quietly left the room and went downstairs to find Andrew.
"Andrew, did Elisa get to see her mother today?"
Andrew fell silent for a moment before shaking his head.
"Her mother arrived while she was asleep. After discussing some matters with Mr. Molan, she left."
Leah couldn't understand.
She couldn't shake the image of Elisa crying, asking for her mother, out of her mind.
