Wait a month before thinking about work , and make sure to have monthly check ups for the next six months to avoid any complications At last , the heavy burden weighing on the Flynn family was lifted .

Josiah gave Howard a proud smile .

The doctor says I need to rest , so Im leaving the company in your hands , Howard .

You better take care of your little brother I cant afford to wear myself out Heh .

Howard scoffed , rolling his eyes at his younger l brother Howard could tell Josiah was relishing this little revenge .

After all , Howard had complained endlessly before about Josiah bothering him with company issues .

Unlike other families who often saw their siblings turn against each other over inheritance , her two grandsons .

Howard and Josiah , had always supported one another .

Ill bring her a bunny plush toy , he said .

Though deep down , he wanted to bring both of them to the Flynn residence .

But Sienna wouldnt agree , so he decided to wait it longer As Sienna fastened the last button on his jacket , she thought about Joyces excited expression and nodded .

Okay , Ill tell her .

Hi there ! Can you tell me where this place leads ? a familiar voice cut through the air .

That voice Rosie had heard it for so many years .

She could easily recognize it .

It was him .

Daniel ! She thought , What is he doing here ? Has he come to bad me ? He is here to take my back Rosies face turned pale , and she began to tremble uncontrollably .

There was only one thought racing through her mind : Run ! She needed to escape .
