My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0894

Katherine was nothing like the woman Alden had grown up with.

The tired, worn-out mother he remembered no longer existed.

Now, she was radiant-her once fiery red hair replaced with sleek, golden blonde waves. Her face was smooth, free of any visible signs of aging. Whether it was creams, surgery, or something else, Alden didn't ask.

All he knew was that his mother looked stunning.

"Oh! That reminds me," Katherine said with effortless grace, taking a sip of her drink. "Alden, darling, would you accompany me to the car later? I brought a few small gifts for everyone. Nothing extravagant, just little things made with love."
