Chapter 2159 A simple gift could brighten her mood for weeks, and she never once inquired about his income.
She contributed generously to the household expenses. She... treated this place as her own sanctuary.
Edwin sank into a chair, covering his face with his trembling hand.
Those three months of cohabitation held an inexplicable significance for him.

However, it was his father, Mark, whose voice sounded somewhat hoarse from having just awaken.
“Edwin, your mother will arrive in Duefron a day earlier than planned.
She requires a hospital visit to collect her medication. | need you to accompany her. Your sister is swamped with schoolwork and can't attend. You know how your mother is. She's a perpetual child at heart. She won't go to the hospital alone.” Edwin's response was terse.
“Understood, Dad. Send me her flight details, and I'll meet her at the airport.” Desperate to leave, Edwin made one final call to Tina, instructing her not to proceed with the apartment's disposal.
Just as he was about to exit, his gaze fell upon the bedside table, where a small velvet box sat.
His hands trembling, he retrieved and opened it, revealing a resplendent pink diamond necklace.
It was his birthday gift for Laura, and she didn't take it with her.
A sudden resolve overcame him. He dialed Tina once more, his tone resolute.
“Hold off on selling the apartment.” Then, Edwin put down the velvet box, and left the apartment.

He pondered whether his discomfort stemmed from the sudden absence of someone he had grown accustomed to. He reasoned that with time, this peculiar ache would inevitably subside.
Clutching the steering wheel with both hands, he pressed the accelerator.
At two in the afternoon, he arrived at the airport to pick up his mother, Cecilia.
Tina accompanied him, their lively conversation a welcome distraction.
Cecilia held a special fondness for Tina, who possessed an easy charm.
Cecilia assessed her son with a critical eye.
