Violette managed to stay married to Elijah for more than four years; there was definitely something special about her.
Plus, Sarah had heard her name when she was abroad.
She was also a student of Dr. Mitchell and had published several decent papers.
However, after graduation, she was nowhere to be found.
She didn't work in any major hospitals, nor did she work in the medical field.
What good was extensive theoretical knowledge without clinical experience?
Why else would Elijah not have her treat Makayla?
Evening.
Silverleaf Ridge.
Albina looked at the two children and wondered, "Why aren't you two eating?"
Rita with her cheeks puffed out, asked, "When is mom coming back?"
Albina: "She'll be back when she's done. I don't know when that will be."
Rita: "Is she trying to save Makayla?"
Albina: "Yes. Don't worry, Makayla will be fine."
At this point, Ian grumbled, "Makayla, troublemaker!"
"You're the one who brought Makayla home, why are you suddenly talking about her like this?" Albina reached out and touched his head.
"She's in cahoots with Elijah!"
Albina didn't expect him to know this.
"Ian, this is an adult issue, you shouldn't worry. Makayla was born with brain development issues, what did she do wrong? If anyone's to blame, it's Elijah." Albina always felt sorry for Makayla.
Makayla was no different from a three-year-old girl.
Ian felt more guilty than anything.
If he had known about mom's relationship with Elijah, or Elijah's relationship with Makayla sooner, he would never have brought Makayla home!
Mom must be feeling terrible.
