Furrowing her brows, Bailey thought about Rhonda, and her expression darkened progressively.

“I know who did it, but don't you worry. I can handle this just fine.”

“Okay. If this were seven years ago, perhaps I would have been worried. Today, however, you've grown a body full of thorns. I'm more relieved that you can take care of yourself.”

Meanwhile, in the Luther residence, Maxton immediately looked for his mother the moment he woke up.
