The phone call from my best friend was like a spring breeze, bringing me an unexpected news: Grace had been fired by Aaron, returned to her hometown sadly, and was forced to return all the gifts. She was burdened with a heavy debt that seemed difficult to pay off in her lifetime. Although I didn't know the details, the haze in my heart quietly dissipated a little.

Aaron lost most of his wealth because of me, and now he is busy stabilizing the company and has no time to bother me anymore. As for the two children, although they occasionally begged me to go home, I never paid attention. Belated affection is more humble than grass, and the three of them are no exception.

When I was traveling with my parents, Aaron actually caught up with the children. He looked haggard, his beard was messy, and there was a hint of evasion in his eyes.
