Dahlia shook her head at her husband’s childish act, then turned back to Maya. “Don’t mind him,

sweetheart. Alice left about an hour ago, same with Nicholas.”

Maya felt a pang of guilt. “Oh… I’m sorry. We weren’t there to-”

Dahlia quickly placed a hand on the side of Maya’s arm, gentle and grounding. “Don’t worry about it. Nothing to apologize for. Everything’s sorted. We’ll go over some final details tomorrow, but

honestly, it’s all set.”

Dominic nodded in agreement, offering a small smile. “Nothing to worry about. Just relax,

Maya let out a small, relieved breath. “Thank you, Uncle Dominic, Aunt Dahlia.”

“Right, right!” Dominic agreed.

“We’re heading to bed,” Dahlia added. “Don’t stay up too late either, okay?”

They nodded, and a few steps down the hall, Dahlia stopped. “I hope you learned a good lesson today, son.”

Damien and Maya resumed their walk down the hallway, arriving at Jaime’s door. Damien raised a hand and knocked lightly.

“Come in,” came Jaime’s voice from inside.
