{LUMIRA} Delta Jett took me back to the mansion. As soon as I entered the sitting room, I noticed Vance, Mirabel, and Beta Kyro were at the dining table. Ma’am Stella was dishing out a scrumptious combination of seafood pasta. There was another tray of truffles mashed potatoes and roasted chicken. The aroma of those meals wrapped the air around like a blanket, making my stomach growl. “Look who's home?” Delta Jett yelled, snatching their attention from the dining to us. “Mummy and Daddy.” Mirabel laughed at his silly jokes, I smiled faintly because Nyra also found it funny. But Vance didn't smile. His eyes were cold as steel as he picked up his fork and began to dip into his pasta. He didn't even look at me. My stomach drowned as though someone dumped a bucket of ice in it.
