Holden looked up to see Adele hesitantly standing at the doorway. His countenance warmed

immediately.

“Did the commotion bother you?” he inquired gently.

However, Adele’s attention was solely on Ariana. Without a word, she climbed the bed, snuggling close

to Ariana, seeking solace in her presence.

Holden observed Adele with puzzlement, perplexed by her sudden attachment to Ariana.

Approaching her, he tried to lift Adele gently, but the child clung fiercely to Ariana. Each time he

reached out, Adele evaded him, clearly not wanting to be parted from Ariana.

Silently, Adele nestled her head against Ariana’s side, wrapping herself up close to the unconscious

woman.

such an immediate bond.

A mix of emotions washed over him: happiness at the possibility that Ariana might be instrumental in

helping Adele, and curiosity about what drew the child to Ariana so intensely.

earlier. He turned to Shawn, seeking answers.

“Didn’t the background check reveal Ariana’s occupation as a psychologist?”

Shawn responded promptly, “She used an alias during her tenure at the institution. Our probe

emphasized the institute and her professional history, not her personal details.”

Nodding, Holden absorbed this information silently.

Devin chose that moment to step into the room. Catching sight of Ariana on the bed and Holden

nearby, he paled.

Concern buzzed in his mind. Had Ariana and Holden crossed paths too soon? As anxiety welled up,

Devin discreetly eyed Holden for any telling signs.

Had Ariana recognized Holden and lost consciousness due to the shock?

However, gauging Holden’s demeanor, Devin found it as stoic and unruffled as usual, showing no hints

of recognizing Ariana or any abnormal. developments.
