The door of the ward opened, and Grace entered. "Are you alright?" she asked Akai, concern etched on her face.
"Hmm... Grandma," Akai replied, her voice weak but relieved.
"Mrs. Thompson told me about the incident... Those culprits are captured, and they deserve punishment." Grace spoke.
"Yes, Madam Klein," Elizabeth added. "Ryder told me that their leader was captured, and he found the real culprit who asked them to harm Akai."
Elizabeth and Grace kept Akai company for a while and left when the nurse came to put a new drip on her. Akai fell asleep again. As she opened her eyes, she saw someone sitting next to Akai ,was first startled, but then found it was Ryder.
Ryder stopped tapping on the keyboard and turned to look at her. "Did I wake you?"
