Chapter 126 Mom Might Be Taken Away

• Adela walked out of the hospital, her steps aimless as she wandered down the street. The sun beat down on her skin, but she didn’t feel its usual sting. Instead, the summer sun seemed almost enchanting, casting a bright light that felt like a good omen amidst the chaos in her heart. She didn’t like the person she was right now—too tangled up in her thoughts, too far from clarity.
• The weekend streets were crowded, filled with people seizing the chance to relax after a long week. Adela moved through the crowd, her face expressionless, a stark contrast to the lively atmosphere around her. She had originally planned to visit Layson at the hospital, only to find out he had already been discharged. The news left her with mixed feelings—relief and disappointment swirling together in a way she couldn’t quite understand.
• Earlier, she had spoken with Evelyn. Adela knew Evelyn was a good person, even though their families’ first encounter had been anything but pleasant. Evelyn hadn’t left much of an impression on her back then, especially since she had once suspected Liam Walton of wrongdoing. But now, Evelyn seemed to be doing well, and Adela couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy.
