Facing the same questions from Jenna and Sandy, Sophie patiently explained once again, “I fell down the stairs when I was little and injured myself.”
“Fell?” Jenna asked, growing more puzzled. “But this looks like…”
Although her memory was a bit fuzzy, Jenna vaguely remembered that when that big incident happened years ago, representatives from several major families had rushed to the hospital. At that time, there was a little girl with a terrible back injury, covered in blood.
Jenna had a strong impression of this because Gordon was holding that girl tightly in his arms.
“Jenna, what’s wrong?” Sophie turned to see Jenna staring off into space.
Jenna snapped back at Sophie's words. “Ah… it’s nothing, just that the scar doesn’t look like it came from a fall.”
“Why do you and Sandy keep saying the same thing?” Sophie said, spinning in front of the mirror. “Jenna, do you think I should change dresses? A backless one doesn’t really go well with a scar.”
“Why not try this one?” Sandy suggested, holding up a lake-blue gown. “It’s elegant and not too flashy.”
Sophie took the dress from Sandy, looking pleased. “Alright, this one it is!”
Sandy then dragged Jenna towards the changing room. “I picked one out for you too! Come on, let’s change together!”
“You’re changing too?!” Jenna exclaimed, exasperated. How did Sandy have so much energy?
As the evening grew darker, Sandy’s energy seemed boundless, while Jenna and Sophie were starting to look a bit weary. Yet, Sandy’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked at the bustling streets outside the Regent Hotel.
“Devonport sure is lively!” Sandy said. “I wonder what it’s like inside, and if there’s anything fun.”

Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with.
