After reaching an agreement, Ralph went home and shared the news with Wyatt and Mila.

Wyatt assumed that Mila was simply too anxious to see her son and had made a mistake, so he did not hold out much hope. However, Mila fell into a deep disappointment, and the emotional shock hit her hard

Initially, she questioned everything intensely, but eventually, she had no choice but to accept reality. She collapsed onto the bed and remained there for three or four days.

It was not until Bella returned home that Mila gathered enough strength to get up and ask again, *Bella... Are you sure it isn't Hugh? Are you really sure?"

"Aunt Mila, I understand how you feel. I wish just as much as you do that Hugh was still alive." Bella's voice choked with emotion as she held Mila's cold hand tightly. "But unfortunately, that person isn't Hugh. He just looks very much like him."

I have this constant feeling... I always believe... Hugh is still alive somewhere in this world, quietly living... He just can't find his way home..."
