Rain guided her Aunt Melanie to a nearby bench and glanced around before revealing her plan to free her. She also shared Alexander’s true identity.
"My husband is Alexander Lancaster... the son of Liam Rock Lancaster. He’s committed to supporting and assisting me in this fight, so you don’t need to worry," she reiterated, watching her aunt’s stunned reaction.
Aunt Melanie’s mouth fell open as she absorbed the shocking news. Rain gave her a moment to process everything, nervously biting her lower lip while she waited for a response.
Her concern grew when she saw Alexander approaching with a dark and troubled expression. "What happened?" she asked, her voice filled with worry.

"What?!" Rain’s face turned crimson with anger. "How dare she touch you!"
She glared at Alexander and demanded, "And you let her?"
