Chapter 39 39: I never saw her again after that day

Feeling overtaken by her comment, Eveline blinked the tears from her eyes and grinned.

"Of course, and there is no way I am going to let you go," Eveline said with conviction.

Susan gave Eveline a gentle smile before deciding to head out; however, she once again stopped her.

"Ah, Aunt Susan, there is something I wanted to ask you." Susan turned to face her and nodded understandingly.

"Your daughter, I never saw her again after that day. Why did she cease to visit?" Eveline inquired, leaving Susan cautioned by her remark.

It was an unexpected question Eveline raised after years; however, she was glad to know that she still remembered Tiffany.

"Her father requested that she remain in the house," Susan remarked, a hint of melancholy appearing in her eyes.

"Oh," Eveline uttered, remembering what she had heard about her husband's abusive behavior.

"I was wondering if you could bring her back. She just so happened to be the person who helped me back then, and I suddenly realized I do not have that many friends." Eveline was hesitant, but she still managed to say what she was thinking.

She wanted to thank the girl for playing with her back then, but she never came and now that her thought suddenly crossed her mind, she wanted to rekindle the friendship.

Susan gave Eveline a perplexed look, causing her to chuckle at her.

"Why are you staring at me strangely, Aunty?" Eveline inquired.

"That is because, young Miss, I assumed you had already met my daughter." Eveline's smile faltered and her brows creased in confusion.

"How would I meet her, Aunty?" she inquired, continuing to be perplexed by her response.
