Hanley's trip took a week. In the beginning, he contacted Candice and talked about his mother's situation.
As time went by, he seemed to get busier and his contact with Candice lessened. Work at the studio was also all passed to Ryan.
Yana asked Hannah about the situation. She said that their mother had jumped from the roof without the doctor's attention due to her mental health problems and had hit her head. The situation was serious.
Although Candice was worried, she didn’t dare to ask Hanley for fear of disturbing him.
But she had calmed down now. Looking at the decorations she had arranged in the room and the big hearts painted on the wall, she felt embarrassed.
She was really out of her mind to do what little girls with a crush did, and hurriedly found a cleaning company to come over and tidy everything away.

In March, Candice finally planned to return to Dorrington. Hanley still had not returned, but he had recently resumed contact with Candice. However, every time he called Candice, she could hear the tiredness in his voice.
When Candice wanted to return to Dorrington, she had to take Ellis with her. Ellis was now almost a year old and could already call Candice 'mother'.
Candice recorded a video before she left, and stored it in her cloud drive.
Yana came to the airport to pick them up when they arrived in Dorrington. When she saw Ellis, she hugged her and said, "Little Mulberry, let me give you a kiss. I have been severely beaten by this society."
Ellis turned her head, disgusted.
It happened to be the weekend, so Candice entrusted Ellis to Yana's care, and then went to see her grandparents’ graves.
She didn’t expect in such a short time that something terrible could happen.
Yana's call was urgent. "Come to the hospital quickly, Baby Mulberry is injured!"
