As they turned the corner into the hallway where the administration office was, Lena—who was actually Dylan—saw a silver-haired woman. She looked to be in her late 40s but appeared closer to her 30s because she was still pretty, slender, wrinkle-free, and clearly had a lot of plastic surgery in several parts of her body. The woman, named Viola, turned, lifted her sunglasses, and turned back around. Her face immediately showed a momentary look of emotion when she saw Lena walking closer.
Then Viola stepped forward, trying to hug Lena, but Lena avoided her, and Viola's face immediately looked disappointed, sad, and hurt for a moment, as tears started to fall, smearing her mascara.
"Lena... I'm so happy to see you. Thank God you're doing well. Mommy has really missed you and wanted to see you," Viola said.
"Stop with the nonsense, Mom. What do you want?" Lena replied curtly.
