Lily cared for the two children for five years, and they had come to see her as family. When Lily

passed away, it deeply saddened the children.

Caroline released her hold on the children and said, “Lily’s funeral will be on December 25th. I’ll

take a leave of absence to be there with you.”

The two children nodded with tears in their eyes.

Meanwhile, at Villa Foresta.

Casey offered Daniella a place to stay for the night. She sat in his room, aware that their two–day

time limit was about to expire, yet Casey showed no sign of checking his phone.

As Daniella undressed in the bathroom, her phone suddenly rang. She quickly picked it up when

she saw Hector’s caller ID.

“Hello, Mr. Hendrix? Daniella leaned against the bathroom door, trying to listen for Casey on the

phone.

Hector spoke. “I’ve found the bone marrow, which can be delivered anytime. You can name the

price.”

Daniella didn’t hear Casey’s voice from outside. She wondered if the room was soundproofed

exceptionally well.

“How much will it be?” Daniella gently opened the bathroom door.

*27,000 dollars,” Hector replied just as she fully opened the door.

Seeing Casey still on the phone, her heart raced, and she hastily closed the door.

This time, the evidence is solid! It’s Casey!‘ she thought.

Clearing her throat, Daniella asked, “Alright, how can I send you the money?”

Hector said, “I’ll send you my account number later.”

“Sure, Mr. Hendrix.”

After ending the call, Daniella received a text message. She transferred 10,000 dollars to the

provided account and received another text from an unknown number, giving the location of the

bone marrow.

On Christmas Eve, Axel woke up to a text from Caroline. It read: [Merry Christmas, my dear.]

Tears welled up in Axel’s eyes as he read her message. Seeing Evan working on the sofa, he hid

under his blanket to wipe away his tears. He missed his mother immensely.

Axel: [Merry Christmas to you. How are you spending the day, Mommy?]

Caroline texted back: [I’m taking Ty and Lia to the funeral home.]

Axel was shocked.

Axel: [Has someone passed away?]

Caroline: [Lily is gone.]

Axel knew about Lily. Even though they had never met, he knew she was very kind.

Axel: [Don’t be sad, Mommy.]

Caroline: [Hmm, I’ll be strong. After all, I still want to see my three children grow up healthy.]

‘Healthy… Axel thought about his own health but pushed the idea aside.

Axel: [You be good too, Mommy.]

Suddenly, Evan’s voice interrupted Axel’s thoughts.

Axel quickly hid his phone and looked at Evan. He was surprised to see Evan looking exhausted

with stubble on his chin.

Axel felt a pang of guilt. I make daddy worry, don’t 17‘ he wondered

“Daddy,” Axel called out, looking away.

Evan sat beside him and asked, “What would you like to eat today? Shall we go out on Christmas

Eve?”

Axel thought momentarily and said cautiously, “Can we go to the mall?”

“For food?” Evan asked.

Axel replied, “I’d like to get Christmas presents for Mommy, Ty, and Lia.”
