Let's Get Married

Lily's conversation with Eunice does work. The next morning, Lorraine delivers a bowl of soup to her. To Lorraine's surprise, Eunice says calmly after having the soup, "Mom, I know Ryan sent someone to deliver this soup to me and then you brought it here."

Lorraine is shocked, but she hurriedly says, "What are you talking about? I cooked it for you. It has nothing to do with Ryan..."

"Mom, stop lying. The ingredients in the soup are especially difficult to deal with. It entailed special cooking skills."

Lorraine opens her mouth. She wants to explain but she has no idea what to say. Finally, she decides not to hide the truth. As her daughter, Eunice must know her very well. Eunice has been so familiar with the food cooked by Lorraine that she can easily tell the difference.

Lorraine says honestly, "Mom didn't mean to hide it from you. You're in the recovery stage now and need nutrition. I'm afraid that you wouldn't drink the soup from Ryan. But I don't have time to make such nutritional soup while taking care of you in the hospital."

Eunice looks down at the empty white porcelain bowl in her hand. After pondering for a few seconds, she raises her head and says, "Let him deliver it himself."

"Who?" Lorraine is shocked.

Eunice heaves a sigh of relief, "Ryan."

For so many days, everyone around her has been working on her problems. She is already twenty-two years old, so she can no longer be as self-willed as a child. At the very least, she must fix her own emotional problems properly on her own.

Lorraine naturally hopes that Eunice is willing to see Ryan. As Eunice's mother, she can tell that Ryan truly loves Eunice. If Eunice accepts him, she will be happy.

However, Eunice resistance to Ryan has been strong, and Lorraine is afraid that it would impede her recovery. She has never said anything about Ryan, even though she really wants to.

Lorraine is delighted to know that Eunice is willing to see Ryan. "Sweetie, are you ready? Have you forgiven him?"
