Chapter 387: She Will Always Be My Mother

Natalie and Justin were watching the news coverage about the Ford Group.

"Finally, it’s started," Natalie mumbled. "I wonder what Sephina’s reaction must’ve been."

"She’s left for their hometown," Justin replied.

"So she finally decided to give up," Natalie sighed. "Good for her. Now Grandpa doesn’t have to worry about her anymore."

Justin hummed in agreement, then said, "Want to see something?"

Surprised by his sudden shift, Natalie looked at him curiously and nodded.

Justin picked up an envelope placed on the center table and handed it to her. She opened it and pulled out the photo, examining the people in it—especially the two identical boys.

"Your family?" she asked.

Justin hummed again, confirming her guess.

"Which one of these two is you?" she asked.

"Try to guess," he replied.

"You two look so alike... even your expressions are the same. It’s so hard to tell," she murmured, studying the picture. "Even this tiny mole on both your chins is identical. I wonder if your mother could even tell you apart."

Justin stayed silent. He had no memories of those days.

Natalie sensed the shift in mood and quickly changed the topic.

"Even as a kid, you were so good-looking," she said, then corrected herself with a small smile, "You both look the same, but my compliment is only for you—whichever one you are in this photo."

Justin smiled at her effort to respect his possessiveness and simply hummed.

"You look like this man—your father," she added thoughtfully. "If the three of you stood side by side, he’d probably look more like your older brother than your dad."

She kept talking, mostly to herself. "And your mother... she’s so pretty. No wonder—just like your father—you fell for a pretty woman too."

She looked up at him and smiled. "Isn’t that right?"

He nodded, a smile never leaving his lips, his eyes full of affection for her. "Yes, you’re the prettiest. That’s why I fell for you."

She smiled, as if approving his words. "I’ll make sure to preserve my beauty even when we’re old, so you’ll always feel good about your choice."
