Chapter 113
If it had been Silvia who sent her the beauty cream, she would have used it without hesitation.
At that moment, Zoe seemed to understand why Aria had grown distant from her.
They had never truly accepted Aria.
She had been the one to push Aria away first.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, and her face turned pale. “Aria, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”
Aria shifted her gaze to Joseph. “Joseph, before I came back to the Saxon family, I heard your legs had lingering issues with frostbite. On the day! returned, I gave the butler ginger essential oil and instructed him to apply it to your legs every night. But you never used it.”
If he’d used it, he would’ve asked her for more.
Joseph’s grip on his cane tightened instinctively. That day had ended in a mess, and he hadn’t dared to use anything she gave him. In fact, he had told the butler to throw it away.
Tara stood not far away, watching them. A wave of sadness washed over her for Aria. She touched her face, then looked at Aria with a serious expression. “I believe in you, Aria. I know you can fix my face.”
“Let’s go.”
Aria turned and walked away, with Tara hurrying to catch up.
Elena stood frozen, watching Aria’s figure fade into the distance. Regret weighed heavily on her chest, making it hard to breathe. She could only cry silently, unable to call out.
Once outside, Tara asked, “Ms. Saxon, when can we start treating my face?”
“Leave me your number. Tomorrow at nine, bring the beauty cream you used.”
“Okay.”
Since the symptoms varied, Aria suspected the ingredients in the beauty creams might differ. To be thorough, she labeled the samples with names
before sending them for testing.
In the hospital.
Owen had just stepped into the hospital room when he ran into his parents, who were about to leave.
“Dad, where are you two headed?” he asked.
Emma explained how they had gone to confront the Saxon family, and how Hannah had promised to treat everyone’s faces. In the end, only Tara decided
to follow Aria.
Owen furrowed slightly, confusion flickering in his eyes. “Hannah’s cream caused the issue, so why is everyone blaming Aria?”
He couldn’t make sense of their logic. “Mom, are you going to Hannah?”
Emma nodded firmly. “Of course! I can’t go to Aria, can I?”
Owen frowned. “But wasn’t the beauty cream she brought also from Kerano Global Health?”
Emma froze, momentarily at a loss.

They had indeed used the cream because of Kerano Global Health’s reputation, but it still caused problems.
Could Hannah really fix her face?
Just then, Tara knocked on the door and walked in. “Owen, perfect timing! Hand me my beauty cream. I’m going to meet Aria tomorrow to get treated.
Owen had gone to another institution earlier that day, but they still couldn’t identify the issue with the cream.
While retrieving Tara’s beauty cream, he asked, “Tara, why don’t you take my mom with you tomorrow?”
Emma pouted. “I was planning to go to Hannah.”
Compared to Hannah, James trusted Aria more. “Emma, just listen to Owen and go to Aria. Hannah has so many people to treat, she won’t have time for you. If Aria can’t fix it, you can go to Hannah afterward.”
Emma finally retented with a sigh. “Fine, I’ll go with her.”
As if remembering something, Owen placed Tara’s beauty cream back on the table. “Tara, you can leave this bottle with me. I’ll take it to Aría tonight.
The moment those words left his mouth, Emma’s handbag slipped from her fingers and hit the floor with a sharp thud.
Her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him. “Wait! You two are living together?”
