Chapter 1400:

Faced with their warm invitation, Calan hesitated for only a moment before nodding. “That sounds great. I’d love to.”

As they stepped into Lilyana and Collier’s home, Calan came to an abrupt stop. His gaze drifted over the space—the soft lighting, the inviting warmth that lingered in the air.

Lilyana noticed his pause and raised an eyebrow. “Something wrong?”

Calan let out a quiet chuckle, shaking his head. “No. I’m just… envious.”

She tilted her head. “Envious?”

A shadow passed through Calan’s eyes, but his voice remained steady. “My parents work abroad. They’re always busy, and when they do take time off, they usually spend it together without me. I never really liked living overseas, and over time, I guess I became more withdrawn. The doctor suggested I try a change of environment, so I decided to come back here for school.”

Calan took in the decor of Lilyana’s home, so different from his own, and let out a thoughtful remark. “I never really understood what the doctor meant by embracing a new environment and lifestyle, but now I think I get it. Collier, Lilyana, thank you both.”
