As Joseph left, Scarlet and Dexter walked into the ward. Esme was a bit surprised when she saw her father. She had thought he would be too busy to visit, but her spirits lifted even more now that he was here. She quickly approached him, her face lighting up with a radiant grin as she clasped his hands in hers.
"I didn't expect you to come," she said warmly with genuine happiness.
Seeing the bright smile on his daughter's face, Dexter was taken aback. He exchanged a puzzled glance with Scarlet, both of them curious about the source of Esme's newfound joy.
"Your smile makes the day brighter," Dexter said as he patted her head. "Always keep that smile."
Esme's eyes sparkled with excitement. "I have something interesting to tell you. Silas's friend has collected evidence of Maya's secret affairs."
Dexter's eyebrows lifted in surprise, his expression turning incredulous. He wondered who this friend was and why had not he appeared before.
