"Once Irene is awake, | will talk to her, okay? | don't know what she might feel about this or how she would react... but I'm glad. If she really is your
daughter, we will be able to play together all the tfrom now on," Rose said excitedly.
"Yeah."
"I'll drink swater and go back to my room, then,” Rose said.
"Sure. Talk to her and letknow if something happens. You can message me, too." Avery was worried that Irene might not want to see them and
had an alternative plan.
After finishing her water, Rose returned to her room. Avery went to sit on the couch and waited anxiously, while Elliot paced back and forth in the
living room.

Inside the room, Irene opened her eyes as soon as Rose walked in.
"Did | wake you?" Rose walked over to the bed with a smile. "Are you waking up? Thirsty?"
Irene rubbed her eyes and sat up. "I'm awake."
Rose handed her a glass of water. "Irene, we have guests. My uncle and aunt-in-law are outside."
Irene’s motion cto a sudden halt.
"My aunty toldsomething... Irene, drink your water. We can talk after that," Rose said as she went to open the curtains.
The sunlight shone in and Irene narrowed her eyes.
"What did she say?" Irene finished the glass of water and set the glass down. She had wanted to get out of bed, but decided against it after knowing
that Avery and Elliot were outside.
"She said that you might be their daughter. Irene, you do look kind of like my uncle.” Rose walked over to Irene with a smile. "If you really are their
daughter, that would be great.”
"My mother's nis Ruby Gould," Irene corrected her. "I was born in Ylore."
The smile on Rose's face froze. She had no clue on what happened in the past, so she was rendered speechless.
"My mom and her family were killed, so | had to hide when | was little. If only | wasn't Elliot Foster's daughter, life would have been easier," Irene said.
"Irene, so you've known all along that Elliot Foster is your father?" Rose asked.
"| found out a while ago,” Irene said. "I prefer not knowing, though! It feels worse."
"But the Elliot Foster | know is a really good man." Rose lowered her gaze and whispered.
Irene did not argue. Even the worst person in the world could be capable of kindness depending on who they directed it to.

"I will get them to leave, then," Rose said, before walking out.

"Uncle, Aunty, Irene doesn't want to see you. You should go hfor now!" Rose said. "If you are here, she won't even cout of the room."
"You told her everything?" Avery's heart sank.
"I did, but she knows all along," Rose said.
Elliot and Avery froze.
Irene had known about them all along, but had not reached out to them.
