Tyrone’s dark eyes shifted, cold and unreadable. You’ll know when we get there.”
At the same time, downstairs at Aella’s building.
Daniel handed Aella an invitation. “Next Friday night, my parents are officially taking in at daughter. Do you want me to pick you up?”
Aella held the card and hesitated. “Daniel, I don’t think I should go to the Hills‘ welcome party.”
She was just a regular doctor at Westside Hospital.
And her relationship with Daniel was still in a strange place.
She didn’t feel she had the status to attend something like that.
Daniel saw her uncertainty and pulled the invitation back. “If you don’t want to go, you
don’t
have to.”
Aella grew curious. “Daniel, your parents already have four children and two grandkids. Why are they adopting a daughter now?”
Daniel lifted both hands. “I’m not sure either. From what my parents said, I think it was my grandma’s idea. I only know the girl’s last name is Caldwell.”
Aella’s expression froze.
Caldwell?
She hesitated.
Then she said, “Daniel, maybe I’ll just go with Brad and the others.”
She wanted to know who the Hills were adopting.
Friday came quickly.
It was Aella’s first time visiting the Hill Estate, and since she was attending a formal banquet, she had dressed carefully.
At the entrance, Raine opened the car door for her. “Aella, you’re riding with my brother.”
Before she could react, Raine gently pushed her into Tyrone’s car.

Tyrone stared at her, stunned by how beautiful he looked. His hand tightened around his lighter.
Aella felt awkward but still greeted him. “Tyrone
After their argument at Mason’s house, they hadn’t seen each other again.
She had planned to ride with Raine as promised,
But she didn’t expect Raine to push her toward Tyrone anyway.
Tyrone spread a thin blanket over her legs and told the driver to start moving.
Seeing him act the same as always, Aella relaxed a little.
She asked, “Tyrone, do you know who Lilian is adopting?”
Tyrone turned to look at her. “Do you know?”
Aella answered honestly, “I only know her last name is Caldwell.”
They looked at each other. Tyrone’s face slowly cooled.
From his reaction, Aella could tell he knew nothing about it either.
Natasha had insisted on revealing the girl’s identity during the banquet. Even Daniel didn’t know the details.
It seemed Natasha valued this adopted daughter very much.
At exactly eight, their car stopped at the entrance of the Hill Estate.
Tyrone got out and opened Aella’s door himself
Before Aella could step out, Daniel approached.
And not just Daniel. Michael and Sophia came too.
Sophia urged Daniel, “It’s cold. Hurry and take Mr. Winter and Ms. Reid inside.”
Aella spoke before Daniel could. “Mrs. Hill, thank you. Daniel, go take care of your duties. Tyrone and I can go in on our own.”
Tonight was the Hills‘ family welcome party. Nearly every major family in Vleka had arrived.
She needed to keep her distance from Daniel to avoid rumors.

Raine stepped up just in time and hooked her an around Aella’s. “Aella, come on. Let’s go in together.”
Raine walked with her in front. Brad and Tyrone followed behind.
As they walked, Michael and Sophia each gave Daniel a smack on the arm.
Daniel turned around.
Michael said, “Man up. If you don’t take the lead your girl won’t just fall into your bed.
Sophia added, “She’s already in your house. Use your brain. Try to make her stay toni
Daniel sighed.
Aella was stubborn and hard to win over,

inside.”
She held Aella’s hand. “Dr. Reid, my grandma has trouble sleeping. After the guests leave, I’ll need your help to check on her.”
Aella couldn’t refuse. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Hill. I’ll stay after the banquet to check on Mrs. Natasha.”
The Hills were a medical family, skilled,
She didn’t understand Sophia’s intentions, but she couldn’t refuse in public.
Nearby, Brad glanced at Tyrone.
Tyrone stood beside Aella with his eyes lowered, impossible to read.
Just then, Daniel’s father, Thomas Hill, took the stage. The room slowly quieted.
Everyone followed his gaze upward. A woman in a custom blue gown walked down the stairs from the second floor.
Under the lights, with her makeup, her features looked refined and striking. Chests whispered in awe.
“Who is she? Why are the Hills suddenly adopting her?”
“I heard it was Mrs. Natasha’s idea.”
