Kenny’s eyes were bloodshot, a sign that he hadn’t slept wellst night.
“I’ve taken a leave from work. Starting today, I’ll being in every other day,” Kenny announced.
Steven’s patience was wearing thin. “Why do I need to know this?”
“Of course you have to! Do you know why I had to take leave? My mom was in a car ident and
had her legs amputated.
“She’s bedridden and needs constant care now. But Skr only came to the hospital on the day of
the surgery and then vanished. We can’t reach her at all,” Kenny said, his voice rising in frustration.
A car ident and an amputation? Steven was taken aback. “Your family’s issues are not my
concern.”
“How is it not your concern? Skr is your sister, too. She’s my mom’s biological daughter.
“She should be by my mom’s side now and taking care of her wholeheartedly. Instead, she
disappeared without a word.” Kenny said while his frown deepened.
Steven sneered. “You’ve never treated Skye like your family before. But now that there’s trouble,
you want to guilt–trip her? Do you even have the right to do that?
“It’s yours and your siblings‘ responsibility to care for your mom. If Skye chooses to help, it’ll out of
kindness. And if she doesn’t, it’s perfectly reasonable.”
“But we all have jobs and can’t spare the time. Only Skye- Kenny began to argue.
Steven’s expression turned grim because of Kenny’s brazen entitlement.
He continued, “Skye has a great job, and her job is better than any of yours, I’d say. Just because
your family is out of touch with reality, don’t assume everyone else is as clueless.

Instinctively, Kenny denied, “She can’t possiblypare-”
He stopped short, realizing the truth. The Williamses had always seen Skr differently. In their
eyes,
Skr was of a lower status.
They had dismissed her as increasingly insignificant. No matter how much she contributed–it was
always overlooked, as if that were the norm.
This sudden realization hit Kenny hard. His muscles became tense with the new awareness. Stiffly,
he
turned and left.
Steven watched Kenny leave with a cold expression. “Shameless.”
He knew Skr was on vacation and now felt even more protective of her after knowing the
Williams family’s despicable intentions.

The next morning, Skr woke up to find it was already past ten o’clock, and Joe had left.
After showering and getting dressed, she searched for her phone on the bed, only to find that it had
fallen
to the floor.
Joe had left her a message. He had left at 7:00 am and instructed her to call the hotel’s butler for
breakfast.
He’d also mentioned that he had arranged for Paul to apany her today, emphasizing that it
wasn’t
safe for a woman to travel alone.
Skr sighed. Fine, if he said it wasn’t safe, she’d go along with it.
After breakfast, Paul knocked on the door while holding a printed itinerary.
“Ms. Sullivan, I’ve prepared an itinerary for today. It includes detailed descriptions. Take a look and
choose the schedule that you like, Paul said.
Skr was genuinely impressed as she reviewed the documents.
Such
professionalism!” she praised Paul.
“Thank you. I have a knack for making sure everything goes perfectly,” Paul said, feeling a bit
proud.
Given Joe’s instructions to ensure Skr had a great time, Paul was determined to make it happen.
Skr and Paul spent the entire day visiting several ces. Paul even took a professional camera
and helped take photos that could rival those of a professional photographer.
As Skr looked through the photos on the camera, she praised Paul again. “These are amazing.”
Paul’s skills were truly impressive. Even Joe would have to acknowledge him as a master
photographer. At dinner, they discussed their ns for the next day.
