Christina didn't know what work Charles needed to do in the C City.

She hadn't seen him for a whole week since they met last time.

She had intended to go back to the A City, but Mrs.Dickens held her hands and tried to persuade her to stay a few more days with her hoarse sobbing voice.She couldn't reject her so she had stayed there for a whole week.

"I don't have too much luggage, so there's no need to see me off.I have called a taxi straight to the airport."

She picked her luggage up and came out of her room.She saw Betty holding a bow of lily syrup.

"There are three hours left.No hurry.Drink this first."

"Remember to check-in, or you'll miss the time again, just like yesterday"

Betty remembered that she had gone to the airport in vain yesterday and felt like laughing.

"Your grandma can't bear to see you leave.She wants you to stay here"

Ever since Donald was ill and in hospital, Mrs.Dickens, who was in her eighties, seemed to have figured it out.

Money was important, but reliable families who could be trusted were more significant.She took the bowl of syrup and walked to the living room to drink.

From time to time, she looked up at the decorations around the house.

It was her home in her childhood, and everything was familiar.

For a period of time, she hated the Dickens family very much.She hadn't intended to go into the house when she came back this time.

But Betty seemed to let her and the Dickens family resolve their previous grudges.She had dragged her into the house.Her grandma had been saying that she had tidied up her room, just like before.

"You don't like living here, right?" Betty sat next to her and could tell what she was thinking.

"No" She lowered her head and stiffly took the spoon to stir the syrup.

But in fact, she felt their warmth and love.

Betty knew that she liked the syrup.

"I'll get you another bow!""

"No, thanks.I'm full"

Betty looked at her with a serious expression.

"If you go back to the A City and live alone, there will be no syrup at all!"

Then she persuaded, "Christina, actually, the C City is better for you."

"Are you still angry with your father?"

"No matter what has happened, no matter how estranged you and your father are, you are a family.But for your father had been rescued in time, you would never see him"
