Chapter 89


    A hint of loneliness shed across that face full of jokes, but quickly disappeared. He opened the top of


    his convertible, turned to the woman who wouldn’t stop talking and said, “Audrey, let’s leave it at that,


    don’t make me hate you.”


    Upon hearing him, Audrey’s face darkened. Without waiting for Bailey, who just came out of the library


    and hadn’t got in the car yet, Jason quickly stepped on the gas and the red sports car sped away

    At Elm Street, Allison and Daisy found a restaurant to have lunch


    The restaurant was run by a middle-aged woman who was very friendly When she brought over their


    meat sauce noodles, Allison asked, “Ma’am, do you know where I can buy cakes nearby?”


    “Cakes? There are plenty of ces around here, especially at night, there’s even a night market on the


    next street.”


    Thedy enthusiastically exined, “Just a bit north from our shop, there’s an old cake shop, but you’ll


    have to line up at this time of the day. That shop, it’s the most popr one on Elm Street.”


    Wait in line?


    Allison guessed it’s probably not that one. Although she was blindfolded that day, the bodyguard who


    went to buy the cake returned very quickly. It should have been a quick purchase, probably not a ce


    with a long line.


    “Thank you, ma’am”


    Daisy was a bit puzzled, “You suddenly want to eat dessert? We can go buy someter”


    Elm Street is an old district in Northfield


    The street is close to a middle school, and there are quite a few studentsing and going during


    meal times. When Allison and Daisy came out of the restaurant, they saw the cake shop thedy had


    mentioned


    Daisy said, “Is it this one? I’ll go line up.”


    Allison quickly stopped her, “It’s okay, let’s check out other shops”


    “Right, there’s too many people in line.”


    Without giving it much thought, Daisy pulled her along to find another cake shop.


    After hesitating for a moment, Allison stopped, “Daisy, actually I’m looking for a cake for my mom.”


    “Your mom? Isn’t your mom in the hospital?”


    Allison shook her head, her eyes welling up with tears uncontrobly as she detailed how Lean had


    taken her mother away.


    With all the pressure from recent events, she felt like she had found an outlet, and tears started to fall.


    But she left out the part about recing Penelope and getting an abortion.


    After hearing the story, Daisy was both shocked and angry. “That’s illegal! How could Lean do such a


    thing!”


    “Every time I visit my mom, they blindfold me, but I’ve calcted the time of the car ride. It should be


    this street, 1 just don’t know which hospital she’s in now.”


    Daisy lightly held Allison’s hand, “I apany you, let’s find it together.”


    The two of them walked around Elm Street again, finally reaching a middle school at the next street of


    Elm Street.


    A man around his sixties or seventies was selling things at the school gate, with a sign saying


    “Handmade Cakes. He seemed to have just arrived and was setting up his stall. Allison walked over


    and said, “Sir, I have a piece”


    A kind old man handed over a piece of cake with a smile. Allison took a bite.


    It wasn’t sweet, but rich in milk vor.


    This is il


    Allison’s eyes lit up, she looked around at the environment, the school, residential buildings,


    convenience store.


    “Sir, do you know if there are any hospitals nearby?”


    Allison thought of Grace’s hospital room equipment, which was a standard care room, not a makeshift


    one. She had checked out several famous big hospitals in Northfield, but the interior design didn’t


    match.


    However, Northfield has many small hospitals, the range is too wide.
