Lewis’s footsteps came to an abrupt halt as if he were spellbound. He stared in shock at the woman before

him.

She left soon after he was born.

This was the first time that the mother and son had

ever met since then…

As a child, Lewis had longed for his mother and once secretly looked at her photos. Though he no longer needed her as he grew up, his exceptional memory

hadn’t let him forget her.

He recognized her at first glance.

In that moment, Lewis felt as if the world was spinning, and a nameless gloom and ferocity sudder surged into his heart. His gaze fixed on her, filled wit

resentment…

But in the next instant…

The woman he was staring at simply shifted her gaze indifferently and turned to go upstairs.

Her attitude made Lewis feel a stifling sensation in his

chest, even more upsetting than before.

She probably didn’t care about his persistent

memories at all.

Indeed, she didn’t care about her son at all.

She didn’t care about his fragile body when he was born at seven months and heartlessly abandoned him at the Horton family. He almost died on the sick bed.

The violence and gloom that imbued Lewis started to fade away, leaving only a profound silence.

In this world, it seemed he was neither cherished by his father nor loved by his mother…

Keira sensed the change in his emotions and was hesitating over why this was happening when Mary’s mother also sensed Lewis’s abnormality and ste forward, blocking his line of sight.

Mary’s mother said, “Keera, is this your friend? Wh are you staring so intensely? You can’t look at peop like my sister-in-law in that way. She’s of such high standing…”

Sister-in-law…

Keira suddenly understood something and saw the

She was angry that Shirley didn’t even recognize her

own son…

She felt sorry for how distressed Lewis must be feeling at this moment.

Without regard for Keera’s public persona, she walked straight to Lewis and took his hand.

Lewis was slightly startled and turned to look at her.

Keira nodded at him.

Lewis looked away, his voice hoarse. “I’m fine.”

His restrained demeanor was hardly that of someone who was fine.

After patting Lewis’s hand, Keera turned to Mar mother. “I’m going to find Mary.”

Mary’s mother nodded. “Alright, Keera, you’re a go friend of Mary’s. Please go and persuade her so she doesn’t do anything rash. It would be foolish. This ch can help her marry Mr. Ellis, and her future will be bright!”
