He continued, “We thought all three of you had died, but then we received a message saying you were sent to
an orphanage in Bysea.
When we looked into it, though, we found nothing.
His aging eyes glistened with unshed tears.
Stella listened quietly, her face calm.
After a moment, she asked softly, “So, my father is already gone?”
Her voice was gentle, almost fragile.

“I'm alright now.
Stella noticed the two elderly people hovering nearby, as if they wanted to speak but were holding back.
Considering that Bella’s memory hadn't fully returned, and given everything Bella had gone through, Stella
worried that too much information might overwhelm her.
Stella spoke up, turning to Bennett.

“Mr.
Lowell, maybe you should take them hfor now.
This is all happening so suddenly, and I think we all need stto process it.
The two elderly people lingered, their reluctance to leave clear.
Bennett caught on to what Stella was hinting at.
He gave a slight nod.
“I'll take them back to rest.
We'll cby another day.
But Bella felt something was off, a nagging feeling that they were hiding something from her.
“Hold on a minute,” she said, instinctively stopping them.
She turned to Stella, concern in her voice.
“What were you all just talking about?”
