Sheena, despite her displeasure, tearfully admits to her grandfather Donovan that she has always been grateful to Uncle Reginald and Andrew, though she never voiced it before. Witnessing Andrew nearly lose his life makes her realize she would rather face death herself than see him suffer. Donovan appreciates this change and emphasizes the importance of unity within the Lloyd family to overcome any challenges. He then reveals that Conrad has returned and is about to duel Andrew, after which he plans to send Andrew away from Chetvine for his own good.

Donovan explains to Sheena that Chetvine is not the safest place for Andrew because, like an eagle, Andrew’s true home is the open sky, not a cage. He assures her that when Andrew returns, he will be powerful enough to claim the Lloyd family as his own, a plan agreed upon with Reginald. Sheena accepts the family’s decision with determination. Donovan then orders her to summon the overseer from the Assassins Division, revealing his plan to eliminate the Murphy family, who have underestimated the Lloyds’ strength.

Meanwhile, Andrew is unaware of these serious discussions. He is relaxing under a porch, sharing a tender and playful moment with Rowan, who shyly calls him "honey." Their flirtatious exchange shows their growing affection, with Andrew teasing Rowan and trying to steal a kiss, much to her embarrassment. Their intimate moment is suddenly interrupted by a mocking voice, revealing Valerie’s presence. Andrew’s mood shifts instantly as he confronts her, questioning her unexpected arrival.
