Joe was playing blocks.

The baby was asleep.

She placed the fruit on the soft carpet and sat down beside her son, joining him in his play.

Joe was focused on his construction. His block-built ship looked impressively real.

Camila offered him some fruit. He opened his mouth to eat but kept his attention on his toys.

He didn't even glance her way.

Camila watched him silently, not wanting to interrupt.

She stayed there with her son, waiting for Isaac, who didn't return until almost eleven.

Isaac, loosening his sleeves, said, "Mila, I need to discuss something with you."

Camila was about to bring up Annis and Alick, but she paused and asked, "What is it?"

"I might need to travel to Clouland soon."

He received the news today.

Willie had found out where Jaylen was.

Therefore, he needed to go there, coincidentally aligning with some work commitments.

“I'm not sure how long I'll be gone. I plan to stop by Faymoor as well."

“Is this trip for work?" Camila questioned.

Isaac pondered for a few seconds before replying, “Yes.

He chose not to bring up anything about Jaylen.

Camila sensed that Isaac was genuinely swamped with work.

This likely explained why Alick hadn't reached out to Isaac for assistance.
