Baron adjusted the room to a comfortable temperature. Just as he was about to lie down beside her and keep watch for a while, his phone rang.

He glanced at Natalie and saw her brow crease slightly, a faint trace of annoyance flickering across her sleeping face though she didn’t wake. Baron quickly silenced the call and slipped out to the balcony, thoughtfully closing the door behind him.

“What is it?”

“Mr. Gunn, the DNA results for Ms. Summers and Mrs. Stone are out.”

At those words, Baron instinctively looked back at Natalie, still sound asleep. His eyes with tenderness.

“Send me the results. And forward Flynn’s report too.”

“Yes, sir.”

It didn’t take long before both sets of results landed in his inbox.

Baron opened them. Just as he had expected–Natalie was the daughter of Waylon and Ruby.

At the same time, Flynn received the report.

The atmosphere in the hospital room was tense.

Ruby had done nothing but wait for the DNA results, clinging to hope.

Flynn was the first to see them. As he read the line showing a 99.9% match, he burst into tears and laughter all at once.

“Dad, Mom–Ms. Summers is my sister! She’s my real sister!”

Ruby snatched the paper from him.

When she saw the result, she broke into uncontrollable sobs.

“My daughter didn’t die! She’s alive–she’s still alive! Why didn’t I investigate back then?”

Her grief tore through the room, raw and devastating.

Waylon stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her.

“Ruby, don’t do this. No one could have known. We all saw the child was gone. Your condition at the time was so fragile–I was terrified you would fall apart completely, so I buried the baby quickly.”

Regret weighed heavily in his voice.

If only he had been more careful back then–if only he had paid closer attention–perhaps he would have discovered their child had been switched.

But who would have dared? Could it have been that poor rural couple? Waylon doubted they had the means.

This was something he would have to dig into thoroughly.

Ruby’s cries grew harsher, as though she wanted to pour out all the years of grief and longing in one breath.

Flynn’s chest tightened.

He remembered when his baby sister was born–tiny and soft, wrapping her little fingers around his, cooing at him.

That sweet little sister… he had barely gotten the chance to hold her before being told she had died.

The loss had always stung.

Especially with Ruby’s repeated suicide attempts, driven by despair over losing her child. He and Waylon had been consumed just trying to keep her alive, leaving little space for mourning.

But now, more than twenty years later, to learn that his sister was alive–alive and standing before them under such circumstances–it was overwhelming.

Seeing Ruby sobbing so hard she could barely breathe, Flynn spoke gently, “Mom, don’t cry anymore. You need to take care of yourself. Sister’s health has only just recovered—you can’t let her see you like this.”

Waylon nodded quickly.

“He’s right. Think of this as a blessing–we’ve found our daughter, we know she’s alive. From now on we’ll give her everything, make up for all she’s missed. But only if you’re well enough

to do it.”

Ruby gasped for breath, then nodded fiercely.
