Traductor: 549690339

After the meal, Tara Summer turned back and checked the heart-shaped steak in the thermal container. Seeing that the smell and temperature were still there, she returned to her bedroom in peace.

Lying in bed, she found it difficult to fall asleep. Worried about Nancy's condition and feeling heartache for Liam Yancey, she wondered when he would finally be able to rest his mind and get a good night's sleep.

Feeling a hint of sadness, Tara thought of the steak. Even if the thermal box could keep it fresh, she decided she wouldn't let Liam eat leftovers.

"Tomorrow morning, I'll let Ava and Audrey throw it away...", she muttered, turning over to close her eyes and forcing herself to sleep…

All night, Tara was in a state of half dreams, half awake, confusedly repeating the same dream over and over again.
