Tears trickled down Charlotte’s cheeks. Her father had been an altruistic soul his whole life and had helped countless people. It did not surprise Charlotte that people like Olivia’s mother would feel grateful to her father.

“Charlotte…” Olivia held her friend’s hands in her own and said gratefully, “Mr. Windt was a good man. He kept my mom’s medical treatment fees in his mind even at the lowest points of his life.”

“Your mom had only gotten into a coma trying to save my dad. It’s only right for us to bear the treatment costs,” Charlotte said in a contrite tone.

“I sold the watch that Mr. Windt left for a million. I had been depending on that for my mother’s medical treatment all these years. Well, actually, I shouldn’t have sold it, but I was still in high school, and mom did not have much savings, so…” Olivia was plagued with guilt.

“I understand,” Charlotte said as she nodded her head. “Olivia, your mom and you are both kind souls.”

“Yeah, I know right.” Charlotte sighed and continued asking, “Right, did your mother mention who the mysterious man was? Anything about how the person looked like?”

“She did not mention anything on that,” Olivia shook her head. “She sounded like she was in a rush. There was no time for her to go into the details, and she hung up on me before I could even answer her.”

“I see. Then, let’s go visit your mother first.”
