didn’t you? You

can meet her here tonight.”

“Yes. I need to meet Lyse.”

Her eyes lit up as she called out, “Lyse! That’s Lyse!”

Jameson quickly turned to see Alyssa walking toward them. Touched, he smiled at her.

“Lyse!” Lily exclaimed.

“Mrs. Schmidt!” Alyssa greeted her and immediately held her hand with a delighted smile.

“I thought you wouldn’t show up! I’m glad you made it.”

“I’m happy to see you too.” Lily took a liking to Alyssa and gave her a big hug.

brought some for you!”

“Thank you for thinking of me,” Alyssa replied, feeling touched as she held the candy.

Perhaps she had experienced too many life-changing events as well as the brutality of the

battlefield in her life. Nothing could faze her anymore, except for the tiny, heartwarming

things in life.

“You look gorgeous tonight,” Alyssa praised Lily.

She turned around with a confused look. “Hm?”

Alyssa listened silently, her heart going out to the young boy who’d had to take care of his

“You’ve met my mom, and we’ve handed over our gift for Madam Lyla. That should suffice.

We’ll go home.

Please enjoy your night.”

“Jimmy, you’re overthinking,” Alyssa responded warmly. She couldn’t possibly turn him
