Lucy Ansley was taken aback, her mouth opened but she did not rush to answer.
She recalled being left in the consultation room for about twenty minutes earlier, enough time for her father and Henry Ronan to have discussed something.
Moreover, when she arrived at the reception room, she vaguely sensed a chill in the atmosphere.

William Ansley deeply understood that his daughter's illness was inseparably linked to him leaving abruptly back then.
But as her father, when it came to matters concerning her lifelong happiness, he couldn't allow her to proceed in confusion and neglect.
