“So, what just happened…” Rebecca couldn’t quite put her feelings into words.

“Don’t bother with him,” Amelia said, instantly catching what Rebecca was thinking. “Just treat him like some delusional lunatic–basically a free workhorse you never have to care about.”

Rebecca didn’t say much. She just nodded. “Okay.”

‘Grown–ups fighting… Best not to get involved, Rebecca thought to herself.

Her mom was way more experienced and capable than she could ever hope to be, so Rebecca trusted her choices without question.

“Let me hold my pride,” Amelia said, arms wide open, her eyes gentle and full of warmth.

Rebecca paused, a little stunned.

Amelia wrapped her in a hug.

Rebecca melted into the warmth, losing herself for a moment.

‘Mom said… I’m her pride,‘ Rebecca thought, her heart blooming with emotion.

“You’ve been through a lot lately,” Amelia said, her hug warm and soothing, her heart aching for her daughter after all she’d been through. “Just take it easy, okay? Don’t be so hard on yourself.”

There were things Amelia didn’t say, but that didn’t mean she didn’t care.

Watching her beloved daughter, whom she’d raised and cherished, go out to brave all sorts of hardships, Amelia’s heart filled with worry. In moments like this, she just couldn’t understand how Sebastian could’ve been so relentless and cold in forcing her for his own goals back then.

But none of that mattered anymore.

She already had Rebecca–the one who truly mattered, her family.

“Okay,” Rebecca replied.

“Me too! I want a hug!” Samuel ran in, his chubby little hands reaching up and his big round eyes sparkling cutely.

Rebecca and Amelia smiled at him and pulled him into their arms.

The family basked in warmth and joy, perfectly content together.

Ten minutes later.

Rebecca got shooed out of the cozy little family circle.
