"Don't worry," Isabella said with a twisted smile. "She is alright, no one will hurt her in that place," She walks towards Ray who was looking at her with a threatening expression. "You don't have to worry about her, Conny will probably survive."

Ray clenched his fist tightly when Isabella passed to him. He closed his eyes before gritting his teeth. "What will be her life in that place?" Ray asked his Mom. 

"It's an information that I will never disclose to you," Isabella told him before she went directly to her office. "By the way," She stopped walking. "Now that Conny is gone, you should never think of betraying me again, Ray."

Ray remained silent for a moment. 

He clenched his fist tightly before taking a deep breath.

"Yes... Mom..." 

Ray heard the door closed. 

He placed his hand in his pocket and started to walk from that place. He looks silent, however, there were a lot of questions circulating around his head. The truth is he is worried.

Ray went down the stairs as he immediately went to the Dining room. Ray stopped walking when he saw two people sitting on a chair. 

Emma was hugging a bunny tightly, there were tears forming in her eyes. When she heard Ray's footsteps, her eyes went up. "Ray..." she uttered. Emma immediately stands up and placed the bunny on the table. 

"Is what we saw... real?"

"Mom...Mom...and..."

"...those creatures..."

Ray halted when he heard the word 'Creatures', He went in Emma's direction. 'Could it be that Mom is lying to me?' The thought. Ray suddenly placed his hands on Emma's shoulder. "What did you see?" He asked seriously.

Emma's eyes went wide when Ray did that.

"She's alright, they did nothing to her," Norman told Ray as he remove Ray's hands from Emma's shoulder. "But we heard them talking about 'Premium Goods' and harvest. Is this what Conny talking about?" 

"Are we raised to become food? You also know about this, correct?"

Ray remained silent while staring at Norman. When he slowly nodded his head. Their faces became terrified.

"Then, Sadie... Hao...?" Emma asked in a panic. "What about Conny?! What will happen to her? are they going to kill her?" She asked. "Did she also knows about this? Why did she... why did she sacrifice herself?"

"Is it... to save Norman?"

Norman's eyes went in a daze because of realization. "To save me..." He uttered. "The reason she asked me to act sick is to save me," He went silent as he fell into deep thought. "To prevent my shipment."
