    Joe said, “Paul told me about Herman’s situation. Just do what you can.”


    Seeing Joe still worried, Skr reassured him. “Alright, I’ll only do what’s within my ability.”


    After exchanging a few more words, Skr hung up and went to open the door.


    A few people were gathered outside. They were debating whether to open the door and When s


    suddenly stepped out.


    go in


    “You scared the life out of me! I was just about to barge in. Good thing you came out,” Lizzie said


    with a heavy sigh of relief.


    Paul nodded, equally shaken. “You almost gave me a heart attack too.


    Skr smiled at the two of them. “I was sleeping and didn’t hear the knocking. Has your brother


    woken up?” she asked Lizzie.


    Lizzie shook her head and replied, “Not yet, but he doesn’t look as pale as before.”


    “That’s good. Maybe he’ll wake up tonight.” Skr checked the time.


    Lizzie then said, “Let’s go grab dinner first. Paul said you like fondue, so I booked a table at a ce


    that specializes in it. They’ve already reserved a spot for us.”


    Skr agreed. “Sounds good. Let’s go.”


    Just as the three of them got into the car and were about to leave Garza Residence, Winona came


    rushing out with panic written all over her face.


    “He’s awake! Herman just woke up. He even spoke,” Winona shouted to them.

    There was more than just urgency in her voice–tears glistened on her face.


    Upon hearing Winona’s words, Lizzie immediately got out of the car. “Mom, did you just say he


    woke up? Did he speak? What did he say?”


    Skr followed her out, and the three returned to the vi with Winona


    Through her tears, Winona exined, “He said it felt like he had been trapped in a long, terrible


    dream. In the dream, he had turned into someone twisted and cruel. He tried to escape the dream


    but couldn’t find his way out.”


    “I’ll go check on him,” Skr said.


    “Alright, alright. When Herman woke up just now, the first thing he asked me was if someone had


    helped him. He vaguely remembered hearing people talking about scissors and a pendant. But he


    said it was all so unclear, like voices in a dream,” Winona said. She was unusually emotional at the


    moment..


    Chapt


    Her excitement was understandable. Over the past year, the exhaustion and heartbreak had worn


    her down as a mother.


    Every bit of hope had crumbled, and she never expected to witness this moment.


    Looking at Skr with tears still in her eyes, Winona grabbed Skr’s hands and said, “You’re a


    benefactor to our family, Ms. Sullivan. I don’t think I’d ever hear my son speak again if it weren’t for


    you.”


    Before Skr could respond, Lizzie chimed in, “You truly are a benefactor for our family, and


    especially for me.”


    She leaned closer to Skr and whispered, “If it weren’t for you, I’d be stuck inheriting the family


    business. You have no idea how terrifying that is for me. That kind of suffering–1 can’t handle it. So


    you’ve spared me a lot of sleepless nights.”


    If Skr hadn’t already been with Joe, Lizzie might have joked about repaying the favor by offering


    herself up. But s, it wasn’t meant to be.


    Skr smiled at Winona and Lizzie. “Let’s check on Herman first.”


    Herman had been tormented by a negative item for over a year. Without the devoted care of Winona


    and Carl, he wouldn’t have made it this far, nor would he have survived long enough for Skr to


    come and help.
