Kaia texted: [My mentor’s okay, Kayla. What did the production team do afterward?]

Kayla replied: [They just announced the shoot was postponed. But | heard from my agent that the director called

Harry into his office for a long talk. When he cout, the poor guy looked like he'd been crying.]

[He doesn’t seem to handle stress well. If you've got a moment, maybe check in on him? | think he asked the

director for your contact info.]

Kaia scrolled through her call log and, sure enough, there was a missed call from an unfamiliar number at the

bottom.

Just as she was about to call back, Lucien stepped out of the hospital room.

She looked up. “Finished talking?”

“Yeah,” Lucien said. His voice was cooler than usual, and it made Kaia’s heart skip a beal.

She forced a smile. “Sorry. Everything happened so fast. | was about to call you back before you walked in.”

“No need to explain. | know everything,” Lucien said softly, his gaze dropping. “I'm not mad... I'm just a little

heartbroken.”

His voice was husky, tinged with exhaustion and unmistakable grievance. “Next time, callback first... okay,

honey?”

Kaia swallowed hard. “Okay.”

“Lucien, you go ahead and head back. I'm going to stay a little longer with Jude. He doesn’t have many relatives

in New York.”

From inside the room, Jude called out loudly, “Don’t makesound like spitiful old man!”

“Go check with the nurses’ station,” he added. “They've got aides here. Just geta smart one.”

Kaia protested, “A nursing aide won't take care of you as well.”

Lucien stepped in, his tone gentle but firm.

“Mr. Halston, if you don’t mind, I'll have my assistant arrange a professional caregiver. They're trained in physical

therapy. It'll be better.”

“Wouldn't that be too much trouble?” Jude asked, raising an

eyebrow.

Lucien smiled. “Not at all. Please don’t be so polite.”

Kaia suddenly reminded him, “Jude, you'll have to use your phone now to send a post to reply to the netizens.

They're causing a huge ruckus online and are all attacking Harry, saying he made you faint in the office.”

Jude looked stunned. “When did he makeangry? These netizens are so nosy! We were just talking about his

homework.

“Harry is quite sensitive because his mother is seriously ill, and he’s eager to grow up fast and earn money to

pay for her medical bills.

“He’s very hard working. | even explained to him why | didn’t accept his late homework yesterday. As a lawyer,

punctuality is the first professional quality.

“Crap, you should call him right away. These netizens are so annoying. This is cyberbullying! That kid is a bit

naive. If he can't take it, it'll be bad.”

Kaia thought it was bad news and quickly dialed Harry’s number.

Lucien stood there with one hand in his pocket, squinting and lost in thought.

He stared at the glaring topic on the trending list, his eyes as cold as ice.

So his words didn’t carry any weight anymore. Otherwise, how could speople just not get the message?

Lucien turned and went to the stairwell to make a call.

“Frank, send two professional caregivers to the hospital to take care of Mr. Halston. Also, deal with the trending

topics on the Interight away.”

“Sure, Mr. Graves. It’s already in the works. The trending topics about Mrs. Graves have been removed.”

“Good. Then call Alden and tell him to stop all of Luna’s work immediately. If he refuses, he can forget about

being the president of Alfly Entertainment!”

Frank could tell that his boss was really angry.

“Okay, Mr. Graves. I'll get right on it!”

Kaia tried calling Harry, but there was no answer. She then checked his X account.

Although the post's popularity had declined, there were already 50 thousand angry comments under the only X

post he’d made to announce his participation in the variety show!

Kaia quickly reached out to Alex and got Harry's haddress from Ryan. She was about to rush over there.

Lucien grabbed her wrist. “Where are you going? Hold on. drive you.”

Kaia was too worried to think much and immediately set off with him.

When they arrived at the rental house where Harry lived, they could see his shoes on the shoe-rack by the door.

He should be home.

Kaia wasted no tand rushed to Harry's door, pounding on it

frantically.

“Harry, are you in there? It’s Kaia Domont from Vanguard Law

Firm.”

But there was no response from inside the room.

Lucien comforted her, “Don’t panic. Call him and see if you can hear the ringtone.”

Harry lived in an old neighborhood with poor sound insulation. Even if they stood outside the door, they could

hear the phone ringing inside.

Kaia nodded and immediately dialed his number. Sure enough,
