Charlotte couldn’t help but feel her nose burn as tears welled up in her eyes.

“My judgment tells me that you have made the wrong choice,” Michael lamented. “But, what can I do? You have always been stubborn to the extent I do not have the confidence to persuade you out of it, just like four years ago…”

After a brief pause, he broke into a smile and commented in a self-deprecating manner, “There, I can only let you go and do whatever you want. One day, when you have had enough of the troubles of the world and men, you will then appreciate me for who I am.”

“At that time, as long as you turn around, you will see me there!”

Having heard his words, Charlotte could no longer hold her tears back as they began streaking down her cheeks.

Not wanting the children to hear her, she quickly covered her mouth with her hands. As tears dropped in silence, she didn’t dare make a sound while crying.

“Silly gal, stop crying.” Michael quickly passed her a napkin for her to wipe off her tears. Putting on a brave face, he teased her, “If you continue to cry, the kids will think that I am the one who bullied you. I have been trying hard to gain their favor over the last few days. Hence, they have grown to like me and even wanted to introduce Fifi to me…”

“Mommy! Mommy!”

Before Michael finished his sentence, a familiar voice could be heard from the entrance.
