Helena finished her explanation and fell silent.
Ivy listened carefully, letting the words sink in before nodding slowly. "That makes sense."
"When she's on winter break, I'll bring her to the Capital for a visit," Helena added.
"Wonderful. Just let me know in advance so I can have the house prepped for her," Ivy said, instantly shifting into planning mode.
Helena nodded with a smile.
The heavy topic was safely put to rest.
Ivy's health wasn't robust enough for long, draining conversations.
So, shortly after dinner, Helena walked her back to her room to rest.
As Helena stepped out into the hallway, her phone buzzed.
She glanced down at the screen.
It was an email from Northgate University, officially requesting her to come in on Monday to complete her onboarding paperwork.
She wouldn't officially start teaching until the next semester, as the current term was wrapping up.
But the administration wanted her on campus early to acclimate to the environment and the pacing.
Helena quickly typed out a confirmation reply.
With her immediate future settled, she tried to force herself to sleep.
It was a futile effort.
She tossed and turned until the sun began to peek through the curtains before finally drifting off.
The house remained blissfully quiet.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since Helena returned to the Capital.
She hadn't spoken a single word to Sebastian, as if they had both completely vanished from each other's lives.
There were still no leads on Janetta's prison break.
As for the ongoing crisis with the Hayes family, Helena hadn't asked and didn't care.
During that time, she met up with Sophia for their promised dinner.
Sophia had talked her ear off for hours.
