Charlie’s parents exchanged astonished looks, their expressions filled with disbelief. “Mr. Payne, is this really happening? You’re not joking with us, are you?”

Winona stared in shock, her voice tinged with uncertainty. “Elijah, you’re not kidding, right?”

Elijah gave a light, relaxed laugh. “Relax, I mean it. I wouldn’t make something like this up.”

Overcome with gratitude, Charlie’s parents clasped his hand tightly. “Thank you! We can’t thank you enough!”

“Whether the matching works out depends entirely on his luck.”

Winona felt completely dazed as they left the hospital.

She had braced herself to lose a friend she had only just met, but an unexpected turn of events changed everything.

Elijah studied her bright, tearful eyes and tilted his lips into a teasing grin. “Try not to look at me like that–especially when it’s because of another man.

“I’m a bit jealous, I won’t deny it, but seeing you upset bothers me even more.”

Winona’s smile blossomed naturally, her heart feeling lighter than it had in a long time, as if everything was finally falling into place.

Elijah drove her all the way back to her hometown.

The moment she stepped inside, she rushed straight into her grandfather’s embrace.

Henry blinked in surprise, caught off guard. “What happened, Winona? Did someone bully you?”

They had no idea what she had just endured.

Her homecoming brought the whole family together under one roof.

Winona lingered close to her grandfather, her manner gentle and affectionate.

It struck her then–he had grown old, and his remaining time was no longer certain.

Elena still wore a displeased expression, convinced her niece was drawing too much attention. the moment she arrived.

To her surprise, Winona served her some food.

Elena glanced down at the food, then slowly looked up at the girl’s bright, gentle gaze, her lips parting slightly. “You…”

“Eat more, Elena. You’ve been looking a bit too thin lately.”

Color crept into Elena’s cheeks as embarrassment washed over her.

Almost instinctively, she placed some food onto Winona’s plate. “You should eat more too. How did you end up looking so much thinner after just one trip?”

The lingering tension seemed to melt away in that simple, quiet exchange.

Henry smiled faintly, clearly pleased. That was more like the atmosphere he preferred.

Austin understood his sister better than anyone in the family. Curious about her change in behavior, he went to her room after dinner.

“Do you have a moment?”

Winona patted the empty space beside her on the couch. “Sure, come in.”

Austin sat down, leaving the door slightly open out of habit, respectful of her privacy despite being her brother.

“Winona, did something happen while you were away?”

Keeping her gaze lowered, she slowly explained everything that had taken place.

Austin’s expression softened, a quiet sense of relief appearing in his eyes. It felt like his little sister had grown up almost overnight.

“It’s good you’re back. Don’t worry–everyone at home is safe and well.”

Winona nodded with a small smile. “I know.”

“By the way, who was the friend who helped find the liver donor?”

Austin quickly caught onto the key detail in her story.
