"Ree, what are you doing here?"
Maria was surprised and jogged over to her.
Rhea frowned.
"Why are you guys here?"
"I have something to do.What about you?"
Fabian cleared his throat and asked.
"Likewise!"
Rhea spoke without looking back as her gaze landed on Anastasia.
"Tell me.Where is my pen holder?"
Anastasia spread her palms, looking helpless.

"Rhea, | didn’t take your pen holder, | swear! | don’t even know what it looks like.Plus, why would | take your pen holder?"
"God knows why! Who else could it be other than you? My mom said you're the only outsider who cto our house in the last
two days!" Rhea accused her coldly.
Maria could only smile awkwardly at the sudden mention of her name.
"Tasia, Ree lost her pen holder, and it's important to her.There hasn't been anyone else by the house recently.| don’t think that you
took it either, but could it be possible that you accidentally brought it home?"
That was a great play with words.
If Maria had asked Anastasia, "Did you take it?"
it would mean that Anastasia had stolen the pen holder if she had it with her now.However, she used the phrase "accidentally
brought it home," so Anastasia could admit what she did without looking like a thief.
After all, the pen holder was in Rhea’s room.
How could Anastasia have brought it haccidentally? "Aunt Maria, | didn’t take it.I didn’t even go upstairs when | visited the
other day.Have you forgotten that?"
Anastasia said solemnly, her gaze as genuine as ever to demonstrate that she was telling the truth.
"Anastasia, | know you wouldn't lie to us, but there might be a misunderstanding here.Well...when is your father coming back?"
The focus of Fabian and Maria's visit was Cameron.
The pen holder was not what they prioritized, so they brushed it off after just a few questions.
"My daddy..."
Before Anastasia could finish her words, Rhea suddenly stood up and walked over to her.
In front of everyone, she grabbed Anastasia’s wrist.
"Rhea, what are you doing?"
Anastasia was stunned and tried to break free subconsciously, but Rhea had an iron grip on her.
Rhea placed three of her fingers on Anastasia’s pulse for a moment before glancing at her.
"You are the medications Austin prescribed to you?"

Anastasia pulled her hand back a little.
"l-1 did!"
"Bullsh*t! And they say you never lie!"
Rhea scoffed and released her.
If it were not for Anastasia’s heavy weight, which provided her with stability, she would have been staggering right now.
Maria quickly held Anastasia and reprimanded, "Ree, what are you doing?"
No matter what, they had to be mindful of their actions at Cameron's place.
As they had not had a fallout with Cameron yet, they had to treat Anastasia nicely like they always did.
Rhea was not bothered by such words from her mother at all.She just smirked and said, "Mom! She’s lying to you! She didn’t take
any of the medications Austin prescribed to her!"
"She didn’t?"
Maria looked at Rhea first before turning her head to look at Anastasia, not quite believing Rhea’s words.
"That can’t be! Anastasia said that she had taken them.Plus, the results are evident.She has lost so much weight! Ree, look at how
healthy Anastasia’s complexion is now.It’s all thanks to the miracle doctor that | found!"
