hasManyThrough, $related eager loading relationship getting null value

[zerexei]

 public function conversations()
    {
        // https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/eloquent-relationships#has-many-through
        return $this->hasManyThrough(
            Conversation::class,
            Story::class
        );
    }

I end up removing it then manually using ->where()

 public function chatUser(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(ChatUser::class, 'user_id', 'user_id');
            // ->where('story_id', $this->story_id);
    }

$conversation->chatUser()->whereStoryId($conversation->story_id)->first()

Define columns manually in hasManyThrough method.
