Listening to Molly Harguez's words, Nia's father's expression turned grim. He turned to look at Nia Mitchell and gave an apologetic smile.
"Nia, if you have the money, could you cover it for now? Dad will pay you back later."
Nia's father clenched his fists. He hesitated for a long time before finally speaking these words.
Listening to his strained voice, Nia Mitchell bit her lip, nodded, and turned to leave.
This medical bill was sure to be substantial. Nia Mitchell thought she should call Maxwell Peary first.

How strange. Why hadn't he called her?
Nia Mitchell took out her mobile phone and pressed the power button. It was off—out of battery.
SIGH.
