“Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you lock me in here? Get out, all of you! You’re invading my privacy!”
The nurses exchanged wary glances and all left dejectedly.
After driving away all the nurses, I immediately locked the door, and having Learned from my past mistakes, I carefully searched the ward for any cameras or bugs.
It wasn’t until I was sure that I was in the clear that I let my guard down and gave Harlan a video call.
“Harlan! Where are you?”
Harlan replied, “I’m at the Xeric Pack, but Elena didn’t come with me.
She’s with MeLany.”
As he spoke, Harlan gestured at his surroundings, proving to me that he truly was back at the Xeric Pack.
“Harlan, what happened that day? How did you two survive?” I asked him anxiously.
Just recalling the horrible the explosion made me sick with worry.
At that time, I thought I would never see my daughter again.
Harlan’s expression darkened.
“We were getting ready to leave when
Elena insisted on seeing you. She refused to stay in the car, so in the end, I had no choice but to take her out. Just seconds after we walked away from the car, it exploded. Who would’ve thought that your daughter’s stubbornness would save our Lives?”
“Then what happened Later? Where did you go?”

“The bomb made me realize that it would be very dangerous to take Elena back to the pack. I couldn’t get in touch with you, so I had no choice but to leave her at the safe house with Melany. Then I rushed back to the Xeric Pack to report what happened to Gale.”
After hearing the whole story, I breathed a long sigh of relief.
Luckily, both Harlan and Elena were alive and well. Otherwise, I didn’t know how I would’ve Lived with myself.
Harlan seemed to know what was on my mind, so he comforted me. “Don’t worry. Just get some rest. Gale already has a plan. She’ll definitely save Roz Town. Stay where you are. We’ll pick you up as soon as we can.”
I nodded. After a moment of hesitation, I bit my Lip and asked, “Do you know who was behind the bombing?”
Caleb asked, “Do you think it was Caleb?” ®
“Yes,” I replied without missing a beat.
My heart sank.
Right before the bombing, Caleb had confronted me about the fact that I had taken pictures of the plan without his knowing. He even threatened to hurt Harlan and Elena.
So if it wasn’t Caleb, who else could it be?
