In the VIP ward of the hospital, Remington and Cecelia entered the ward and saw Shepard Nuno feeding Cynthia.
âCynthia, Shepard!â
âCecelia, Remi, youâre here!â
Upon seeing them enter, Cynthia felt embarrassed and signaled Shepard to stop feeding her. And she gestured him to put the food aside.
âShepard, what special recipe are you giving Cynthia?â Cecelia teased.
Shepard put away the food, feeling embarrassed. âItâs nothing. Just. made something myself.â
âWow, Shepard, you cooked yourself! Cynthia, youâre so lucky. I havenât tasted anything Shepard made personally!â
With Ceceliaâs compliments, Shepard blushed and found an excuse to leave. âGuys, take your time. Iâll be back later.â
Cynthia smiled and licked her lips, savoring the taste.
Well⦠Dr. Junoâs cooking skills are pretty impressive!â She thought to herself.
Cynthia then looked at Remington and rolled her eyes at him, asking, âRemi, Iâm hospitalized, and you didnât even prepare something delicious for me.â
âWhy should I prepare for you? If I had made something delicious, I would only keep them for my Cece.â
Remington put his arm around Ceceliaâs shoulder and said matter- of-factly.
Cynthia couldnât help but roll her eyes again. âEnough! Just leave! I donât want to see you guys showing off your affection in front of me! Go get yourself to other audiences!â
âFine, letâs go!â
Remington turned with Cecelia in his arms. And at that moment, Aurora came in carrying something, followed by her husband Samuel.
After greeting them, Cecelia and Remington left first. Auroral approached her daughter and placed a thermal container down.
Cynthia didnât find her motherâs presence surprising, but when she saw her father following behind, she was astonished. âMom, my dad is back?â
âYes, heâs back!â
âWhat happened to my dad? Why did he suddenly become so thin?â
Since waking up, she hadnât seen her father. When she asked about him, they only told her that he was working abroad and hadnât returned yet.
Now seeing her father return, Cynthia felt that he looked completely different from what she remembered.
Her memory of him was stuck two years ago. When Bill was impersonating her father, she thought her father should be a well- maintained middle-aged man.
But the man in front of her was thin and pale, as if he had aged more than he was. She was almost unable to recognize him.
âYour dad went through a major illness mainly because he missed you so much.â
There was no need to tell her about what happened in the past, so Aurora simply let her daughter hold on to her memories of the fake father.
After listening to her motherâs explanation, Cynthia looked at her father and shed sad tears.
âDadâ¦â
âCynthiaâ¦â
Samuel came to the bedside and looked at his daughter with bandages on her head. He felt extremely distressed about what his daughter had missed years of love and caring from her real father.
âMy baby girlâ¦â â He held his daughterâs hand and cried uncontrollably.
He could still remember the scene of his daughter snuggling in his arms when she was little, and now 18 years had past in a blink of an eye.
His daughter had grown up, but the time lost between them was difficult to make up for.
âDaddyâ¦â
Cynthia also cried, and in the end, she opened her arms and hugged her father. In her memories, her father was somewhat distant from her and her brother. She had always wondered why her father changed. But now, seeing her father cry for her, she realized how much he loved her. It was as if this accident had eliminated the distance between Cynthia and her father, and she felt his care and love.
Only those who were aware of the truth knew that this was her real father, Samuel, who loved his daughter without any pretense. With Remingtonâs company, Cecelia went to the special ward first to take care of her brother. Adam was gradually recovering, both physically and m entally. When he saw his sister, hé wanted to get up. âStay, Kevin.â Cecelia walked over and helped him adjust the bed so they could face each other. âI cooked some food. Would you like to eat it?â âYeah.â Adam was now able to have soft or liquid food. Cecelia specially made bone soup and noodles for him. After the thermos was opened, a fragrant aroma filled the air.
âIt smells so goodâ¦â
Adam caught a whiff of the food and felt a bit hungry.
Cecelia carefully blew on it and began to feed her younger brother. Having the food made by his sister, Adam had a tendency to cry. âI finally get to taste food made by you, Sis. It reminds me of our motherâs cooking⦠Itâs delicious. Itâs so delicious that Iâm afraid I wonât be able to eat something this good again in the future.â
Ceceliaâs eyes glistened as she smiled and said, âYou little fool. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If you like it, I can make it for you frequently.â
âMhm.â
After feeding Adam, Cecelia wiped his mouth for him. Her

movements were extremely gentle, showing her love for her little brother in every detail.

Remington, who was outside the door, watched Cecelia take care of Adam with such tenderness and felt a bit uncomfortable.
But well⦠Thinking that Adam was his brother-in-law, he had to bare with this!
Bringing up the matter of the Revenant Sect, Cecelia asked, âAdam, do you know if your teacher, Jed Landis, has any other strongholds besides the one you mentioned?â
Adamâs expression slightly changed as he replied, âSis, are you going to find my teacher?â
âYes, I want to seek revenge against him. But he is very cun ning. By the time we arrived with our troops, he had already evacuated.â
Cecelia shared the result with him, and Adam sighed softly and said, âLandis is always cautious. If he knew that the assassination mission on me failed, he would have anticipated that I might reveal information. So, the evacuation was a must do choice.â
âAs for where they would be hiding⦠Well, Iâm not sure. I only know about that headquarters. Usually, his subordinates are sca ttered in various places, and they only gather at the Revenant Sect for important matters.â
âBy the way, they seem to have a secret communication channel, but because of the rank, it hasnât been opened to me. So, I donât know anything else about it.â
Cecelia nodded and said, âWhatever the situation is, we need to be more careful in the future. Your teacher is cun ning and wonât stop until he gets the secret manual.
Adam already knew the importance of the secret manual from his sister. He felt guilty for putting her in danger and said, âI know. Iâm most worried about you, Sisâ¦â
âDonât worry about me. Iâm under protection.â
Cecelia didnât tell her brother about her plan to visit Porema, as she didnât want him to worry. She hoped he could focus on his recovery.
After visiting Adam, Cecelia went to the ward where Kara was.
Kara had already woken up, with Jessica by her side. âCecelia, you are here!â Jessica stood up to greet her.
Kara looked towards the door and called out to her. âCeceliaâ¦â
dos 12:3!
Chapter 312 Reunion of Father and Daughter
Cecelia calmly approached the bedside and sat down on a chair. âHow are you, Kara? Feeling better?â
âIâm feeling better. Thanks for your concern, Cecelia.â
âYou are welcome. You risked your life to protect me from the gunfire. Iâm deeply moved.â
Cecelia held her hand and continued emotionally, âI blamed your before because of Doris, but now I realize I was being narrow- minded. You and your sister have been so good to me, and I really donât know how to repay you.â
âCecelia, please donât say that. Protecting you is our duty. And itâs also the order given to us by the young master.
Cecelia nodded. Touching Karaâs hand, and pretended to be surprised as she exclaimed, âOh, Kara, what happened to your palm?â
