Pethkids time, the cargo ship arrived safely at Blonu Pier.

Due to the storm the previous night, they were delayed and arrived an hour later than planned.

Virginia Frost was pale and could not walk properly.

So, Kelly Martinez carried her off the ship.

With the warm Pethkids night breeze against her face, Virginia Frost began to regain her vitality.

There was a hustle and bustle around her, with workers busy transporting goods and crowds moving back and forth on the dock.

...

It was a lively scene.

While carrying her away from the pier, Kelly Martinez said, “This place is full of The Rintos personnel.

If I let you go now, Madam, do you know what will happen to you?”

Virginia Frost instinctively tightened her grip on Kelly’s shoulders.

Kelly Martinez smiled, “Next year today, I’ll offer more paper money in your remembrance.”

A group of people was approaching and the one leading them was Ricky Wood.

Virginia Frost buried her head in Kelly’s shoulder and whispered, “If I die, Aurora Brun will never come back.”

As they passed by, Kelly curled her lips and walked away with light steps.

“Wait a moment.” Ricky Wood suddenly turned his head.

Virginia Frost gasped and her fingers instinctively dug into Kelly’s skin.

Kelly raised an eyebrow and turned back smiling, “Can I assist you with something, sir?”

Ricky Wood approached them and evaluated Kelly Martinez, “A woman?

What brings you to the pier at this hour?”

Kelly responded with a giddy laugh, “My mother is seriously ill back in Lostswa.

I am taking her home to get her treated.

Fortunately, a fellow villager works as a sailor on the ship.

They informed me about a cargo ship heading from Lostswa to Pethkids.

I managed to get my mother on board as a favour to save some ticket fare.”

“You are quite upfront.” Ricky Wood’s gaze fell upon the person Kelly was carrying.

The person’s face was buried in Kelly’s shoulder and only a head full of dark, thick hair visible, disheveled over the shoulder.

Backing up a step, Kelly warns, “My mother’s disease is contagious.

It’s better you all don’t come too close.”

The crowd behind Ricky Wood instinctively backed off.

Ricky Wood stood still, took a deeper look at Kelly, waved his hand, “This time, I’ll let it slide, take your mother to the hospital right away.”

“I am thankful and will certainly repay your kindness in the future.” Kelly hurried to leave after saying these words, with Virginia Frost on her back.

Shortly after she ran out of the pier, Kelly breathed a sigh of relief, “The Rintos are not to be trifled with, especially not this cunning Ricky Wood.

It would be disastrous if we were pursued by him.”

While fleeing, she didn’t forget to joke, “All of this is the cause of your actions, Madam.”

The person on her back lay silent as if dead.

Kelly hailed a taxi, “Clear River Residence.”

Clear River Residence was one of the properties under her name where she occasionally rested and refreshed herself.

Not only Virginia Frost but also her own condition wasn’t very good due to a day and a night spent in the warehouse.

Once Ricky Wood and his group left, Kelly took out her phone and made a call, “Master McKay, the person has left.”

Agave Rinto has been keeping an eye on The Frosts.

Naturally, the news of Virginia Frost going on the run could not escape his notice.

The identity of the person who saved Virginia Frost had not been discovered yet.

However, the moment the two of them stepped on the pier from The Rintos’ cargo ship, Agave Rinto was well aware of it.

Agave Rinto would naturally hope for Virginia Frost to die without a resting place, but it seemed that keeping her alive held some value for now.

Why did Peter Aria suddenly come to Pethkids?

It’s worth pondering.

“Keep an eye on them.

I am curious to see, what they are planning.”

Although she was shackled all the time while in Lostswa, in Pethkids, this was his territory.

Once Virginia Frost stepped in here, she shouldn’t even dream about leaving alive again.

It was high time to bring an end to the disputes between her and The Rintos.

——

The mornings in Pethkids were always enveloped in a thin mist, giving the city a mystical appearance.

As the dawn scattered the mist, the city started bustling with activity.

After chaos and commotion, Titi Groove, Hellena Groove, and Emma Johnson went to school successively.

Alaric Moore had learned about Ms.

Aubree’s plan of transferring to Lostswa from her last night.

Being in low spirits overnight, Alaric had adjusted his emotions by morning.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of the juniors and won’t give you any reason to worry.”

The handsome Dr.

Aria she saw last time turned out to be Ms.

Aubree’s real uncle.

Alaric Moore was genuinely happy for her, for she found her family.

“I will find a time to tell the juniors about this,” Aubree paused, looking up at Alaric Moore, “I’ll make arrangements here for the juniors.

It won’t affect your life.”

“Aubree, saying things like that makes me very sad.”

Alaric held Aubree’s hand and said earnestly, “I’m their senior, I should take care of them.

You have done enough for them.

It’s time for me to do something for them.

Otherwise, I can’t answer when they call me sister.”

Aubree looked at her deeply: “Okay.”

Alaric picked up her backpack, “I’ll go to school first, see you tonight.”

Now she’s used to pretending to be a high school student, and doesn’t have any psychological burden.

The lively house quieted down in an instant.

Milana Alvarez finished her work in the kitchen, dried her hands and came out, taking the cloth bag hanging on the wall.

“Miss, take a rest at home.

I’m going to the market.”

Aubree got up, “I’ll go with you.”

Milana Alvarez smiled and said, “Of course it’s good, but the place is a mess, I’m afraid you’re not used to it.”

“That’s okay.”

The market is nearly two kilometers from the residence.

Milana never takes the bus.

She walks slowly on her own, which is a form of exercise.

“It’s a bit far.

I’m used to walking.

Should I hail a cab?”

“No need, walking is good.”

The two of them were chatting casually, and the distance of two kilometers was not too far, so they arrived soon.

The marketplace was a jumbled mix but had been cleaned up quite a bit after a city renewal project.

The clamor never ceased; housewives and vendors haggling over prices, bosses arguing defiantly over underweight items, and people hawking their newly caught shrimp at group-buying prices.

The earthly world was alive with the buzz of human activity.

Milana found the seafood shop she always went to.

The shopkeeper, a 50-year-old woman, saw Milana and smiled: “You’re here.

I’ve been saving the Big Yellow Fish for you, absolutely fresh.”

The shopkeeper’s eyes sparkled suddenly: “Is this your sister?

She’s stunning.

Like a fairy descended from heaven.”

Milana shook her head with a smile but did not explain.

A woman carrying a vegetable basket rushed past them, nearly bumping into Aubree.

She stumbled and steadied herself.

Aubree reached out to steady her: “Are you okay?”

Hearing this voice, the woman looked up, her pupils abruptly shrinking, “Ms.

Aubree.”

Aubree smiled, “Verine, how’s Jaime been?”

Verine Hayes had not expected to run into Aubree here.

She looked troubled and distracted as she said: “Good, he’s doing well.”

Even the fairy-like Aubree, who seemed to be above worldly concerns, would come to the market to run errands, thought Verine, dismissing the strange idea in her mind.

Aubree noticed her worries and asked, “What happened?”

Like a porcupine, Verine Hayes bristled defensively: “Nothing, nothing at all, Ms.

Aubree.

Jaime talks about you every day.

If you’re not busy, why don’t you come over for dinner?

He’d be delighted to see you.”

Realizing her presumption, Verine Hayes quickly added, “I…

I was too abrupt.

Sorry, Ms.

Aubree….”

Aubree readily agreed: “That’s fine.

I want to see Jaime anyway.”

Verine had not expected Aubree to accept, and it left her in a daze.

Telling Milana about it, Aubree received an odd glance from her maid who only said: “Go ahead, Miss, and call me if you need anything.”

Milana did not feel a bit of friendliness towards Verine and her daughter, but she wouldn’t comment on Aubree’s choice.

On the way back, Verine seemed very nervous, her hands constantly rubbing against each other.

Aubree noticed and said, “If you have something to say, say it.”

When they reached a deserted area, Verine suddenly knelt down in front of Aubree.

“Ms.

Aubree, I know I have no face to ask you for a favor, but I really have no other choice.

Bella can’t hold on any longer.

She’s done a lot of wrong things, and I know she owes you.

But she’s my biological daughter.

I can’t bear to see her suffer.”

Aubree bent down to help her stand, “Get up and let’s talk it over.”

Verine stubbornly remained kneeling, “Ms.

Aubree, you are a living Buddhist savior, your benevolence and mercy is endless.

Please have mercy and save Bella.”

Aubree sighed, “I never blamed her.

Please get up.”

Verine was moved, “Ms.

Aubree, you really are a savior.”

Wiping away tears, Verine hurried to say, “Bella has uremia.

She needs to get a kidney transplant.

I want to donate a kidney, but mine isn’t compatible with Bella.

Waiting for a donor kidney is an indefinite wait.

I know she’s done some terrible things and doesn’t have the same luck as Jaime, but I can’t just watch Bella wait for death.

I’m begging you to help me find Bella’s biological father.

It shouldn’t be difficult for you.

He could potentially be a match for a kidney transplant.

He doesn’t even know he has a daughter in this world…, I don’t want Bella to leave with regrets.

I’m begging you, Ms.

Aubree.

I’m asking for your help.”
