After wrestling with his thoughts, a resigned sigh escaped Devin. He shook off the dilemma and ambled out of the villa. Inside, Ariana was in the midst of coaching Adele, leading her to be more vocal.
Adele, seated on a plush carpet and clutching a toy, had Melon beside her, showing off his toy collection.
Under Ariana’s gentle guide, Adele finally called out to Melon, “Melon.”
Her voice was light and melodic. Melon, hearing it, beamed and said, “I’m right here!”
With that, Melon dived into a toy box, digging out his prized possessions. He handed them to Adele, eager to share.

The duo batted ideas back and forth but ended up at a dead end.
“There’s something strange with Sadie,” Sonia declared.
“| won't rest until | find out what's going on.”
After telling Sonia to be careful with her investigation, Ariana turned her attention to dinner preparations.
She spent most of the day looking after the kids until Shawn dropped by in the evening to fetch Adele.
