Their gazes locked, and as Kristin approached Estrella, she seemed oblivious to Isaac’s presence, her eyes filled with only her daughter-in-law.

With a radiant smile, Kristin reached Estrella and called out her name again. Estrella stood

from her chair and said, “Hi Kristin.”

“You’ve been back for a while, haven’t you? I’ve been meaning to invite you over for dinner but just couldn’t find the right moment. When you were ill, I visited you twice at the hospital. You were sleeping both times. By the time I went again, you had already been. discharged.”

Kristin then asked, “By the way, are you feeling better now? No more discomfort? There’s been a nasty flu going around lately.”

“Thank you, I’m all better. You and Landon should take care of yourselves,” Estrella advised, her concern genuine.

Kristin’s grip on Estrella’s hand tightened with emotion. Kristin knew, deep down, that her son hadn’t treated Estrella right over the years.

At this point, neither Kristin nor Landon knew about Estrella’s pregnancy three years ago or that she had taken a fall at Sandalwood Oasis while waiting for Jason to return. If they had, Jason would have had some serious explaining to do.

Not even Autumn knew about it, or else she would have been devastated.

Holding onto Estrella’s hand, Kristin studied her favorite daughter-in-law, and she remained blissfully unaware of Isaac standing quietly beside them.

Obligingly, Isaac stayed by Estrella’s side, silently clutching her leg as she and Kristin chatted. His big eyes were fixed on the two of them, a picture of obdience.

Perhaps it was the absence of a father figure that made Isaac so well-behaved from a young age. Whenever Estrella took him out or engaged in conversation, he’d wait silently by her side.

If Estrella gave him something to eat, he’d eat quietly. If she didn’t, he’d just watch her, never fussing or causing any disturbance.

That’s why he’s been reluctant to finalize any paperwork. Maybe you could give him another chance? I’m sure he’d cherish it.”

Kristin continued, “Oh, and Jason mentioned that as long. as you don’t divorce, he’s willing to give you all of the Nelson family’s assets and shares. Estrella, I can tell that Jason still has feelings for
