NovelAppChapter 145 Chapter 145 Lying in the hospital bed with nothing but time, I often found myself flipping through my mom's old journal.
She had her fair share of suspicions. Like why did Galen Brown betray us? Why, after I left, did Galen's wife and daughter vanish too? I left because of my illness, but what about them? Given the close bond between our families, it would have made sense to leave together. Yet, Galen never even hinted at it, which was outright suspicious.

The photos stuck in her journal showed happier times - our family and the Browns, all smiles. I remember Galen's daughter, Geneva, who'd be in high school by now. Where could they be? I wondered if Galen had fled the country, perhaps starting anew with his daughter. It felt right to dig deeper.
Stuck in the hospital in Aurorea, my connections were limited, unlike Vinson.
