As Darion stepped out of the bathroom, his phone started ringing. It was lying on the floor where he’d dropped it.
He walked over and picked it up. It was a call from Blackburn Manor.
“Hello?” Darion answered.
The nanny spoke respectfully. “Mr. Blackburn, Keith says he misses you and wants you to join him for dinner.”
Darion glanced at the time and replied, “Alright, I’ll come over now.”
He changed his clothes and went downstairs, leaving Rosewood Manor.
Bonnie saw him go and turned to Thalia. “Hey Thalia, isn’t Mr. Blackburn staying for dinner?”
Thalia didn’t even look up. “He probably has something going on. That’s his business, we don’t need to worry about him.”
Bonnie nodded. “Okay.”
She went to help Diana over for dinner.
Diana’s eyes were still dull, but after a few seconds, she came back to herself.
Noticing how unusually flushed Thalia looked, Diana suddenly smiled and asked, “Thalia, are you not getting divorced anymore?”
Thalia paused, then shook her head. “Yeah, I am. What’s up?”
But Diana just said, “But you two act like newlyweds. Who would believe you’re getting divorced?”
Thalia finally caught on to what Diana was getting at. “That Darion, such a beast,’ she grumbled inwardly, but she forced herself to stay calm and replied, “It’s all just an act, Diana. Don’t read too much into it.”
Diana took a moment, then nodded. “Alright, I won’t let my mind wander. I really can’t keep up with you young folks these days.”
Thalia felt a bit embarrassed and decided to keep quiet.
Bonnie glanced at Thalia, and noticed a faint red mark just barely visible beneath her collar.
‘Wait… is that a hickey?’ Bonnie thought, a little stunned,
‘So they spent the whole afternoon in their room… doing that?’ Bonnie’s cheeks heated up at the thought.
She felt her face flush and a bit of sadness welling up inside. Bonnie quickly looked down, trying her best to keep her feelings hidden.

10 your hats
Darion drove back to Blackburn Manor. A bodyguard was standing at the gate, and when he saw Darion return, he quickly came over and reported, “Mr. Blackburn, someone tried to approach the house again this afternoon, but they were too fast. I couldn’t catch them.”
The bodyguard looked genuinely scared, his voice shaky.
Darion said, “Add a few more security cameras. And make sure the whole neighborhood’s security gets an upgrade. Every vehicle coming in or out needs to be registered, and anyone who isn’t a resident has to be logged too.”
“Yes, sir,” the bodyguard replied.
“Darry!” Keith called out when he saw him.
His eyes lit up, but he stayed put, standing there all proper like a little gentleman.
Darion walked over, ruffled his hair, and asked, “So, what did you want to tell me?”
Keith pulled out his sketchpad and said, “I made a drawing today. I want to show it to you.”
Darion glanced down and saw three simple figures drawn with colored markers, two grown-ups and a kid.
Keith pointed at one of the adults. “That’s you, Darry.”
Then he pointed at the other adult. “And that’s Tally.”
Finally, he pointed at the kid. “And that’s me.”
Darion raised an eyebrow. “So, you’re not scared of Tally anymore?”
