“I’ve heard about it. Jason still hasn’t uncovered the truth? That’s unlike his usual efficiency.” Estrella said.

Serene sighed, with a hint of frustration in her voice. “In all the years I shadowed Jason, he never brought it up. Even when I spoke to him recently about Holly asking me about the fire, he didn’t say much. You’re a lawyer. Can you dig into it?”

Before Estrella could respond, Serene’s brows furrowed with indignation. “After all, that fire did a number on me.”

Estrella smirked. “Looking for representation?”

Serene grimaced. “I can’t afford a lawyer’s fees.”

With a chuckle, Estrella glanced at the clock on the table. “It’s getting late, and my fever’s subsided. I’ll call my driver to take you home.”

“It’s okay. I drove myself,” Serene said, rising leisurely from her chair.

As Estrella crossed her arms and sized Serene up, a laugh escaped Serene’s lips. “The car is not expensive. I bought it myself. The house was a gift from Holly, and I couldn’t turn it down even if I wanted to.”

After Serene finished, Estrella handed her the thermos. “Thanks for the soup.”

“Get some rest and beat that fever,” Serene said, heading for the elevator.

“Mhm,” Estrella murmured, accompanying her to the elevator bay.

With her hands still tucked in her pockets, Estrella watched the elevator descend before turning back to her hospital room. She never expected that one day, she and Serene coul have a calm chat. The enemy of my enemy is indeed a friend.

The hospital was eerily quiet at midnight, the silence almost suffocating.
