Cassia looked at Draven, puzzled. “Don’t you ever have anything to do?”

Draven, as heir to the Greys empire, managed the entire family fortune and oversaw hundreds of companies, big and small. His daily schedule was unimaginable.
Yet somehow, Draven felt like she saw him almost every single day.
He looked so free.
“I stay busy every day,” Draven said seriously, his calm eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at her.
“Oh.”
Cassia was curious what exactly kept him so busy, but it wasn’t really her business, so she didn’t press the matter.
The next day–weekend.
Vance walked out of Omega Psychiatric Hospital looking completely drained, holding a medical report in his hand.
Yesterday, a handful of doctors from the hospital had forcibly taken Victoria. Vance assumed it was a misunderstanding and figured she’d be back soon.
But after a whole night, she still hadn’t returned.
He sat in his office, and before starting work that morning, he had specifically told Geneva to call him immediately if Victoria returned.
An entire morning passed, and the call never came. Instead, the hospital called his cell.
“Hello, is this Mr. Vance Wood? Mrs. Victoria Wood is having a bit of a situation. Could you come to Omega Psychiatric Hospital right away?”
Vance’s heart sank. He rushed to the hospital and found Hugo.
“Doctor, may I ask what this is about?”
“I asked you to come because of Mrs. Wood,” Hugo said.
Vance swallowed hard. “My mother … she…”

Hugo handed him a medical report and spoke seriously. “After diagnosis, Mrs. Wood has what we call a mental hypersensitivity.”
“Mental… hypersensitivity?” Hearing those words, Vance felt his world go dark for a moment.
“Don’t panic. This is not a mental illness; it’s not hereditary. It’s something rooted in her personality and experiences. Right now, it’s still mild.”
He explained carefully, painting a clear picture. “People with mental hypersensitivity often have weaker mental resilience. They can’t handle too much stress. Think of it like dormant cancer cells inside the body. Most days, they’re fine, just like anyone else. But if outside stress combines with internal triggers and the person’s mind isn’t strong enough, it can flare up. When it does, it can lead to serious mental illnesses–things like rage disorders, split personalities, or depression.”
Hugo’s next words were even more grave. “Yesterday, what happened with Mrs. Wood was an early–stage flare–up. If we don’t treat it promptly, it could develop into a full–blown mental disorder.”
The more Hugo explained, the more scared he felt. He remembered yesterday evening— Victoria had seemed possessed, like she’d lost her mind. She had even grabbed a vase and tried to smash it toward Cassia!
How could Victoria, normally so composed, turn into that?
“Has Mrs. Wood ever gone through anything extreme?” Hugo asked. “Something that really hurt her, pushed her to the edge, or put her under huge pressure?”
“Extreme…?” Vance tried to remember. “No … nothing really extreme.”
“Mental hypersensitivity doesn’t appear out of nowhere. Please think carefully.”
“Uh…”
Vance racked his brain.
Then he remembered. Eighteen years ago, after he and Victoria had left baby Cassia at the orphanage, Victoria had been restless. She said she kept having nightmares and couldn’t sleep.
Could it be because of that?
But later, when they brought Brie home, things seemed fine. And after Danica was born, Victoria had even forgotten about Cassia…
“Mr. Wood?” Hugo waved a hand in front of his dazed face.
