Maybe Nate? Even so, she couldn't recall anyone in the interstellar era possessing the ability to deliberately cause such a wide range of illnesses in other people.
If such a power existed, it would be terrifying.
Just as Aurora was lost in these unsettling thoughts, Emily spoke again, her voice quieter now.
"I'm really sorry, Aurora. I know you have a lot to deal with already, but this time, you'll have to manage everything on your own."
Aurora exhaled slowly and massaged her temples.
"Yes, I understand," she replied. "Don't worry about the work for now. Focus on your son and do whatever you can to help him recover. I'll take care of the rest."
After offering Emily a few words of reassurance, Aurora ended the call.
For a moment, she remained motionless, staring at the phone in her hand as though she expected another piece of bad news to appear on the screen.
However, the device remained silent, and she finally lowered it with a weary sigh.
