?Chapter 1660:


    Katelyn nned to prepare even more delightful dishes for the woman to try in the future. Opting for self-healing methods would better support her recovery.


    While surgery might expedite her healing, self-healing methods proved superior in fostering wellness. Furthermore, it significantly reduced potential risks.


    Given the woman’s long-term mental health struggles, her physical strength had weakenedpared to others. Therefore, embracing a self-healing approach to recovery was undoubtedly preferable. Over several days, Katelyn consistently brought meals to the woman. During this time, Katelyn not only tended to Ashlyn’s wound but also used these meal deliveries to deepen her connection with the woman. Ashlyn was aware that a woman grappling with mental health challenges had taken residence in the backyard.


    Once Katelyn exined that this was the woman from the pce facing these challenges, Ashlyn chose not toment. Instead, she joined Katelyn for light-hearted conversations andughter in the garden. Their aim was to cultivate a warm atmosphere that wouldfort the woman.


    Initially indifferent to their lively discussions, the woman now asionally paused by the window to listen.


    As she did every day, Katelyn brought food to the woman on that day. When she entered with the simple dishes, Katelyn was surprised to find the woman already seated at the table. It was clear that the woman was eager, curious to see what Katelyn had brought her to eat that day.


    Taken aback briefly, Katelyn’s lips soon curled into a soft smile. She approached the table, gently set down the tes, and took a seat across from the woman.


    This time, Katelyn said little. After she put some food on the woman’s te, she started eating herself.


    Katelyn’s tender actions caused the woman to grip her fork a bit tighter, a mix of nervousness and slight resistance evident in her posture. However, as Katelyn remained silent, the woman’s initial resistance began to melt away.

    From the corner of her eye, Katelyn noted this subtle shift. Though she maintained aposed exterior, inwardly, she was pleased. Yet, in that moment…


    Katelyn’s phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence and startling the woman sitting across from her. The woman flinched, instinctively pulling back, and her fork slipped from her grasp. The sharp tter of metal against the floor echoed in the room.


    Katelyn nced at her, then, without a word, picked up a clean fork and ced it beside the woman’s te. She answered the call in a calm, quiet voice. “Hello.”


    Even as she spoke, her eyes remained on the woman, observing her reaction. To her relief, there was no panic, no sudden outburst. Good. The woman was adjusting.


    The goal was to slowly ease her into handling small, unexpected situations. If she couldn’t manage these, even the slightest disruption in the future could send her spiraling.


    The voice on the other end of the line belonged to Jaxen. “Katelyn, I was looking into the Ruiz family, and I found out Hry has been getting close to the T Organization. You need to be careful. I have a bad feeling about this.” Though the world believed Katelyn was dead, Jaxen still worried. He knew how quickly things could escte, and a warning was necessary.
