Little Ezra noticing his uncle standing outside with a tray for so long was such a sweet yet heartbreaking detail.

That tray of food meant everything.
The moment Kael hands over the investigation file from five years ago changed everything. Learning Sarah impersonated Iris and took the check explains so much misunderstanding. The Wolf King's Contract Mate handles this revelation perfectly, showing how fear made Kael hide Ezra's paternity. Now he just wants to make it right.
