She could handle herself, but she was terrified Zach might hurt Brock. The only safe move was to send Brock back to the Welton family. She needed to talk this over with Caroline. An hour later, the operating room lights went out.
Dr. Roth stepped out, took off his mask, and gave Eliza a reassuring thumbs-up. Her heart finally settled. After making sure Mikey was comfortable, Eliza left. On the way, she called Caroline and arranged to meet at a nearby café.

Eliza handed her a coffee, trying to calm her racing heart. "Sis, Zach foundtoday and said stroubling things. I'm scared he might go after Brock. I'm thinking of sending Brock to Mom's. Do you think that's a good idea?" Caroline was taken aback. Zach was seriously going after Eliza and her child. That meant he was desperate.
"Zach is definitely unhinged. Sending Brock to the old house isn't a bad idea, but aren't you afraid Casper might... figure out his connection to the baby?" Casper had amnesia.

"Sis, if Casper asks, just cup with a reason. I don't think he's interested in making wild guesses." Caroline nodded. "Of course, that's no problem." "Thanks, sis." Eliza was genuinely grateful.
"Don't mention it. Brock is part of the Welton family too; I can't just stand by and watch him be put in danger." Caroline held Eliza's hand gently, adding, "know you shouldn't have been dragged into this, but...

With his skills, Zach won't stay CEO of Welton International for long." Eliza wasn't really interested in how Casper would reclaim Welton International. But his competence was undeniable. And he was too proud to let Zach keep the upper hand. Taking back Welton International was just a matter of time.

She thought, once Mikey was well, she'd take him to see Robin. Robin was always on her mind.
After dinner, Eliza sat quietly on the wicker chair on the balcony, lost in thought. The night wrapped around her in tranquil silence.
The doorbell rang suddenly, pulling Eliza back to reality. Startled, shen slowly got up and walked towards the door. She didn't expect Casper. A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes. "Why are you here?"
He was holding sbrain-boosting supplements and a few fruits. His demeanor was gentle, like an didn friend. "Theard your dad was discharged. I cto check on him." "Please, cin." Eliza politely welcomed Casper into the house. Mikey sat in a wheelchair, barely recognizing Casper. After a brief glance, he lowered his head again, possibly asleep.
Casper set down the gifts and glanced at Mikey. "What did Dr. Roth say?"
