Lydia quickly tidied up the mess.

However, the cold water in Natalie's palm served as a chilling reminder that her vision was

deteriorating rapidly!

It was possible that, at any moment, she might lose her sight altogether.

A sense of panic surged from deep within her.

Throughout her morning routine, from changing clothes to getting ready, Lydia and Xyla

assisted her.

Natalie noticed that she could discern brighter colors more clearly from her wardrobe.

Everything else seemed to blend into a gloomy haze.

At breakfast, Lydia carefully placed a bowl of soup in front of Natalie and cautioned, "Miss,

be careful.

It's hot."

Lydia didn't only caution Natalie. As Natalie reached for a spoon, Lydia promptly handed it

over.

"Thank you," Natalie responded calmly.

But beneath that calm exterior, a storm raged within her.

After a while, Heather called.

Natalie answered, "Mom."

"Why didn't you join us for breakfast?"

"I woke up late. You guys should go ahead."

"You should come home in the morning to spend time with Luna. Since you're in Simeria,

she'll be upset if you don't come here."

"Okay, I got it."

When Luna's name was mentioned, Natalie felt a suffocating tightness in her chest.

Luna...!

This moment intensified Natalie's resolve: she needed surgery, no matter the cost.

After ending the call, Natalie's world felt heavy again. She pondered her fortune in having

a brother like Clyde in her life.

What would Heather and Stephen do if they had only had Natalie to rely on?

With mixed feelings of relief and burden, Natalie was driven back to the Lotus Villa after

breakfast by her driver.

Heather remarked, "What are you up to anyway? Staying home here would be so much

better."

"Mom, I need my own space," Natalie replied.

"Yes, of course. I understand the need for personal space. But..." Heather's voice trailed

off, heavy with concern.

She knew Natalie only wanted to shield them from worry, but seeing her like this only

heightened Heather's own anxieties.

Once they were seated, Heather couldn't hold back any longer.

"Natalie, did something irritate your eyes recently?"

She remembered how stable Natalie's vision had been, but now it seemed to be

deteriorating rapidly. Heather and Stephen couldn't help but wonder where Natalie had

been.

They also believed that Natalie should wear her specialized glasses in bright and intense

light. Heather suspected that perhaps during Natalie's recent visit to Wexford, they hadn't

taken proper care of her.

Natalie responded, "I did visit Mount Elven recently."

"M-Mount Elven?!" Heather's voice rose in alarm upon hearing the destination. Suddenly,

she jumped up, her voice tinged with panic.

"Have you lost your mind? Haven't you heard of snow blindness? Even those with normal

vision can't endure it. Why would you..."

The more Heather spoke, the more furious she became!
