Chapter 196
"Okay..." Yancy said, stepping into the elevator.
Elodie and Old Madam Miller walked out of the hospital. They’d just reached their car when Elodie spotted movement from the corner of her eye.
Sienna, stepping out of a car parked a few spots away.
Old Madam Miller glanced over, then quickly looked away. "So they haven’t left yet."
Elodie had thought Grandma hadn’t noticed Sienna earlier. Turns out she had. She’d just chosen not to say anything.
Elodie watched Dante walking toward Sienna and thought back to how long he’d been gone earlier. Half an hour, at least. He’d probably spent that whole time down here with her.
She let out a quiet breath but didn’t say anything and just helped Grandma into the car, buckled her seatbelt, and started the engine.
As they were pulling out, Elodie caught sight of Yancy bursting out of the hospital entrance. He looked surprised and then thrilled when he spotted Sienna. He took off running toward her.
Elodie glanced at him briefly, then turned her attention back to the road and drove off.

"Big brother!" Yancy called out to Dante, though his eyes were glued to Sienna. "Wait! You... You really are*CC! I... I thought I was seeing things!"
Sienna had heard about Dante’s younger brother but had never actually met him. Now, watching him practically vibrate with excitement, she couldn’t help but smile.
