Chapter 1216

The bottle of vintage wine was bought by Caleb Malone the year Kari was born, a token of love and hope for the future. Sadly, Caleb passed away years ago.

Now, as Kari was getting married, Willa, her mother, couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart thinking about her late husband: "Kari, all these years, I know it's been tough on you. Now that you're starting a new life with Ronald, just be happy and don't worry me." Tears welled up in Kari's eyes as she hugged Willa, "Mom."

Ronald watched the mother and daughter, his silence speaking volumes.

Willa, not one to hold her liquor well, got tipsy after a couple of glasses. Kari helped her back to her room, her eyes red when she returned.

"Is Mom okay?" Ronald asked, concerned.

"She's just had a bit too much to drink, she's asleep now."

Kari was worried, "Do you need me to come with you back to the Malone estate tonight?"

"No, it's fine."

Ronald served her a bowl of chicken soup, "Mom made it, it's been simmering for hours. Try to have some."

Kari struggled to eat under Ronald's gaze, but managed to finish a bowl. Ronald wanted her to eat more.

"I can't, really."
