During this time, he had been trapped in a terrifying nightmare.

In the dream, his eyes were gouged out, and he mistook another girl for her, almost giving himself away.

Thankfully, he steadied himself at the crucial moment.

The feeling was suffocating.

"You're awake?" When Lilah opened her eyes, she found herself in bed, while Gerard sat quietly on the sofa beside her, looking at her with concern.

There was only one explanation.

"I'm fine now." Gerard grasped her hand tenderly, “Lilah, I'm sorry for everything you've been through."

Tears welled up in Lilah's eyes.

At that moment, she remembered something.

The antidote had been brought back by Joselyn, indicating there must be some connection.

Melvin had always been close to Joselyn, seemingly as a friend, but he had deeper feelings for her, which Lilah and Miranda had long noticed.

He must have gone to great lengths this time for Joselyn.

Perhaps Joselyn acquired the antidote through some means.

With that thought, Lilah hurriedly called Joselyn.

"I did promise him that once this was over, I would return to Kuskeonga within a week," Joselyn's cool voice came through the phone.

"And... what about my father?" Lilah felt a lump in her throat, overwhelmed with sadness.

Joselyn paused slightly before saying, "Sometimes it's better to part ways peacefully."

In the end, she told Lilah that she planned to return to the Rhodes family with Lillie in a few days and would welcome Lilah and Miranda if they had time.

"The Rhodes family?" Lilah was puzzled." Why are you thinking of going back now?"

After all, the Rhodes family had been baffled by Joselyn's sudden disappearance, and rumors had spread that she had betrayed her lover and left with someone else.

Joselyn's voice turned bitter, "It's been a long time, and some matters need my personal explanation."

Lilah nodded, "We'll see about the timing and try to join you."

In the following two days, Joselyn stayed at the Harris family home, preparing delicious meals for her two daughters, which even rounded Lilah's face a bit.

Jerrold adored his grandmother, saying her cooking was better than their chef's.
