Everything in Jameson’s place was new. It was evident that he in.

He had embraced a simple and minimalist monochromatic style for home decor. Alyssa

could tell from

one look that the furniture and houseware he had chosen were from understated luxury

the heater’s problem. The spacious halls, Coupled with the boring color palette, sent a

chill down her body.

“Lyse, are you feeling cold?” Jameson retrieved a pair of white home slippers from the

shoe rack, knelt on

one knee, and placed them at Alyssa’s feet.

“Put these on. I’ll turn up the heat.”

She blinked and slid her feet into the warm, comfortable slippers.

She was surprised to find that the slippers were brand new and the right fit for her. They

appeared to have

been prepared especially for her.

“Jameson, you’re home,’ Claire greeted them with a warm smile. She was the housekeeper

responsible

for taking care of both Jameson and Lily.

“Lyse, this is Madam Claire.” Jameson introduced Alyssa to the lady

Then, he turned to Claire, saying. “Madam Claire, she’s-

“I know! This must be the Ms. Alyssa who’s always on your mind!”

Claire enthusiastically welcomed Alyssa. “How are you, Ms. Alyssa? You look so lovely!

Even more

stunning than Miss Kontina!”

Alyssa smiled, blushing shyly. “Thanks for the compliment, Madam Claire.”

“Come on in! It must be freezing outside! Jameson, Madam Lily is waiting for you both,”

urged Madam

Claire, leading them into the living room.

She couldn’t help but steal glances at the two along the way. She grew more fond of them

with every

look. They seemed like a match made in heaven.

Meanwhile, Alyssa felt a bit nervous because she couldn’t recall Lily Schmidt’s

gentle and kind

woman.

“Mom!” Jameson called out to the woman in the wheelchair with a tan velvet blanket on

her lap. She slowly turned around.

Alyssa felt a pang of sympathy when she saw Lily, who was the same age as Mandy but

looked much

older with her gray hair.

“My son! You’re back!” Lily broke into a radiant smile. Though she may have aged, her

beauty from her youth was still evident, especially when she smiled.

He hurried over to give her a hug. Then, he announced, “Mom, Alyssa is here to see you.”

“Oh, is it Lyse? Lyse?” Lily gasped in a childlike and animated manner.

“Madam Lily, I’m here!’ Madam Claire quickly replied

“Get some juice and candy for Lyse!”

“Got it!” Madam Claire answered. She swiftly grabbed a handful of colorful candy from the

exquisite snack box on the coffee table and eagerly handed them to Alyssa.

She said, “Ms. Alyssa, please have some candies”

Alyssa accepted the candy in surprise. She hadn’t expected such a unique welcome from

Lily.

“Jimmy, you should bring your friends home more often! Don’t worry about disturbing me.

I don’t want you

to be alone,” said Lily as she glanced worriedly at Jameson,

Stunned, Alyssa slowly turned to Jameson. He said to Lily, “Mom, don’t worry. With Lyse by

my side. I’ll

never be lonely.”

A hint of

of sadness-briefly crossed his eyes as he gently caressed Lily on the back. “Even if

everyone

ignores me, Lyse will stay by me.”

“Good. That’s good. Lyse, you have to visit Jimmy often and play with him!” Lily said,

looking at Alyssa as

if she were the same young girl from 15 years ago.

Alyssa responded courteously, “Thank you, Mrs. Schmidt,”
