Chapter 389

Back at Sunset Ridge Community, Jenna was already asleep.

Sophia, however, was still awake, sitting on the couch and folding laundry fresh from the dryer.

When she saw Sherilyn, she whispered, “Back already? Jenna’s asleep. I’ll finish up here and then join her.”

“Sophia, thank you so much.”

It wasn’t just politeness; it was heartfelt.

Jenna wasn’t an average child; she needed special care at night. Although Sophia was paid for her work, it took someone truly kind to be as meticulous as she was.

“You’re too kind,” Sophia said with a smile, waving her hand dismissively. “I have a daughter too. Honestly, I understand; it’s not easy for you.

Both being single mothers, Sophia could deeply empathize with Sherilyn.

“It’s late. You should go wash up and get some rest.”

“Alright.” Sherilyn got up and headed to the bathroom. “Sophia, I’ll stay with Jenna tonight. You take a break.”

“Oh,” Sophia said with a smile and a nod. “That would be lovely.”

Half an hour later, Sherilyn entered Jenna’s room.

The little girl was all spread out on the bed like a little frog, her cute chubby mouth a bit open, snoring.

“My little piggy,” Sherilyn chuckled, gently touching her daughter’s forehead. Jenna was warm, sweating lightly under a thin blanket even with the heating on.

Sherilyn lay down on the adjacent bed, her mind still active.

There was no denying it; things had been getting steadily better since they moved back to

Sunhaven.

And now, she was pregnant again…

“Jenna,” Sherilyn whispered, gently squeezing her daughter’s chubby little fist. “You’re the bravest, strongest little girl in the world. Just wait a bit longer; soon, you’ll be going to school. and making friends just like other kids.”
