Kane returned home that very night.
Indeed, the moment he landed, he received a call from Saul.
"Kane, are you back? We're at the hospital now.You can come here after landing."
"No.I need to go home" Kane declined coolly.
Karl didn't try to convince him to change his mind, for he knew how much his boss hated Chris.
At least he had agreed to come back for now.
Back at the Rory residence, Wendy greeted him warmly.
"Mr.Ronin, welcome back home.It's good to see you!"
Kane nodded and came in, exhaustion showing on his face.
He took a look at the lit-up hallway and asked, "Where are they? Are they asleep?"
"Yes.They were waiting for you, but I told them you went to look for their mommy, and they should eat and sleep well.They agreed to go to bed so you won't worry about them"
Wendy revealed and sighed.Why can't they have a happy life? Why wont their rivals leave them alone?
"Got it.You can go to bed now."
Kane couldn't really tell her anything, so he told her to go to bed.
Wendy put down the cup of tea she had been holding and left.She wanted to ask why Amora didn't follow him back, but she chose not to say anything in the end.
The answer was obvious from Kane's weariness.
Mrs.Ronin, I hope you can return soon.
Karl came in and saw Wendy returning to her bedroom.
Worried that his boss might fret, he reported, "Mr.Ronin, don't worry.I've sent someone to monitor Ken Sato.I'll inform you right away if something happens."
"I know"
Hearing Kane's response, Karl offered his opinion carefully.
"Also, I think they won't hurt Mrs.Ronin before getting your father's shares.You don't have to worry for the time being."
"Mm, Kane mumbled in approval.He had the same idea in mind.Otherwise, he wouldn't have come home that swiftly.Kane went upstairs to the kids' rooms.Normally, the kids would sleep in their respective rooms, but tonight, they were sleeping in the same bed.
Under the alluring moonlight that sipped through the windows, their sleeping silhouettes intertwined on the bed.
Strangely, Kane felt guilty at the sight.
Last night, he left them without hesitation.
What was going on in their minds? How did they tamp down their fear of losing their mommy and get that clue for me? Kane felt his heart clenching painfully at that thought.
