    this in the morning rush


    The pot in the kitchen was still warm.


    The air was filled with the aroma of food and Grace spied a note stuck to the pot: [“Mom, I’ve gone to


    work. There’s lunch in the pot


    But Grace didn’t immediately open the pot. Instead, she gave a quick scan around, then opened the


    thermos on the stove. Inside was chicken soup she had stewed in the morning, with half of it still left.


    She had forgotten about it in the morning rush to drop off something for Penelope. Had Allison seen nt?


    From the looks of it, Allison hadn’t noticed.


    But she still felt a tad uneasy, so she whipped out her


    “Allie, you dashed off to work so early?” Grace asked.


    “Yeah, had to get in early today


    and dialed Allison. The call was picked up quickly.


    you’re back already? I made lunch for you, don’t forget to eat.” Allison said.


    “Sure, and Allie, did you drink the chicken soup I made for you?” Grace asked, sounding guilty. The


    more she tried to exin, the more she feared being caught by Allison.


    On the other end, Allison was changing in her workspace. Hearing this, she paused. She wedged her


    phone between her neck and shoulder, then continued changing. Her voice didn’t betray anything


    unusual, “What chicken soup? Mam, you made chicken soup? She even sounded a bit annoyed, “Why


    didn’t you say so earlier? If I knew you made soup, I wouldn’t have eaten lunch”


    “It’s fine. I’ll reheat the soup for you to have at night Hearing Allison say this, Grace felt relieved.


    After hanging up. Allison’s face turned pale


    She had no idea what Grace had been up to these past few days, where she had been sneaking off to


    This was Grace’s business, she didn’t want to know, but she felt her mom was bing more and


    more strange.


    Allison shook her head,


    id, telling herself not to overthink. As long as her mom was happy and healthy, nothing else mattered.


    It was Friday.


    Allison woke up early in the morning. Shey in bed, listening to the sounds from Grace’s room next


    door. It was 8:30 in the morning, but she wasn’t sleepy at all


    Last night wasn’t busy. After she had finished the drink orders, it was just past midnight when she got


    home.


    Right now, she wasn’t sleepy at all. Just as she was about to get up, she heard footsteps outside her


    door. She closed her eyes and continued lying


    down


    Grace pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing Allison on the bed, the nket already on the floor.


    She shook her head, sighed, and walked over to cover her with the nket again, neatly tucking in the


    corners. After tidying up the dirty clothes in the room, she got out.


    Then, Allison got up, changed her clothes, and was about to head to the living room. Suddenly, she


    heard the front door open and close. She realized that Grace had left home


    She was slightly taken aback. It was only 9 in the morning. Where was she going so early?


    When she thought about Grace’s unusual behaviortely, Allison put on a mask, grabbed her bag, and


    headed out as well.


    As soon as Grace walked out of Blue Mountain Estate, Allison followed close behind. She followed


    Grace all the way to the train. She always stayed within a distance that Grace could see


    Today, she was going to find out. What was the goal of Graces unusual activities every day? Where


    was she going?


    The 9.30 AM sun was scorching and blinding.
