While Rena had agreed to cooperate with Aline, she was not eager to maintain frequent contact with Aline. So she withdrew from the conversation, leaving Aline somewhat unsettled.
As Aline departed, her thoughts were in turmoil.
She knew that even if she managed to marry Albert, she needed something to secure her position in the Waston family.

“Miss Hanson, are you here to see your daughter today?”
Aline’s voice trembled with anxiety.

The director’s lips quivered with emotion.
Aline’s heart sank.
“Where is my daughter?”
“Someone has adopted her.”
“Who adopted her? I want my child back immediately. She’s my child; how could you give her to someone else?”
The director finally composed herself.
