Catherine said nothing, with a surprised expression on her face, but her tears couldn't stop flowing. Sean hugged her and she stiffened.
"Cathy, this is probably a really bad idea as a birthday present. But I really don't want you to never find out..."
"H-how could she..." Catherine seemed to have come back to her senses, her voice broken.
“Forgive her...she must have been through tremendous pain and struggle.
"You are such an excellent daughter. Your intelligence can conquer all the challenges life throws at you. She doesn't have to worry about your future at all. But maybe you didn't realize it at the time. She was really lonely. Maybe she couldn't accept forever. Stay by your side, so she made that choice on impulse..."
"She can tell me...I can't control her forever."
"Who can explain life so clearly? Maybe she regretted it later, but didn't know how to face you?" Catherine covered her face.
She did not burst into tears. Sean kept waiting. Cathy wiped away her tears with a tissue: "Where is she now?"
"On the second floor of this apartment. Living with that Lauren."
"Is she... doing well?"
"Why don't you go and take a look for yourself." After sitting in the car for a long time, Catherine finally seemed to have the courage. She chose to get out of the car and followed Sean into the apartment building.
They went up to the second floor and Catherine stood in front of the door. She didn't ring the doorbell in a hurry, listened to what was going on inside, and then used her spiritual vision to see.
She saw her. She is making breakfast in the kitchen. She was laughing and talking to the man standing next to her.
She hasn't changed much, except that she has some more white hair on her temples. Her face was peaceful and her eyes were smiling.
She's doing well. Then she saw their room. Their room is covered with posters of themselves.
Posters for all her movies. There are still photos of her as a child on the bedside. Catherine closed her eyes and could only take deep breaths.
She didn't feel any anger at this moment. She just felt sad and apologetic. She didn't know that she had
"smart" and
"Being decisive" brings about this situation. Finally, she rang the doorbell. ·In the car going back to New York, Catherine stared straight out the window at the falling scenery.
There was no resentment in their meeting. The mother and daughter didn't say anything and just hugged each other. Indeed, as Sean said, once he made that decision, Angelo didn't know how to look back.
Angelo thought he would always have to go back to Catherine. But she kept procrastinating, and the time gap unknowingly became larger. The guilt in her heart became deeper and deeper, which made it more and more difficult for her to take the step of confessing the truth. ...If it weren't for Sean, maybe Catherine would not know the truth of all this until a major change occurred in Angelo's life.
Sean made that non-existent gap disappear.
"She's such a fool. She can tell me that." They made an appointment for the next week, and Angelo took Lauren home to visit.
Mom is still alive and they can still see each other. Catherine was content to know this.
"Maybe you weren't that easy to talk to at that time?" Catherine was silent for a while and said, "It seems so. It seems that I slowly changed after she left." She turned to look at Sean: "Before I always think that others are not as smart as me, so I always make decisions for others.”
"You're pretty much the same now." Thinking of the time when she first met Catherine, to be honest, she didn't like her very much at that time... She smiled a little palely: "Oh, I won't be able to sleep tonight." When she was worried, she Will suffer from insomnia.
Sean rolled his eyes and looked at the sky. There were no clouds in the sky and it wouldn't rain today. Catherine once said that if you listen to the sound of rain when you have insomnia, you can still fall asleep.
It's her birthday after twelve o'clock, but she might spend it in insomnia. This made Sean feel a little distressed.
Her cheeks suddenly warmed slightly, and she kissed herself quickly.
"Thank you, Sean. This is the best gift I have ever received." With a faint smile, Sean looked at it and found that his face was slightly hot.
She looked at herself seriously. As if staring at something important.
"It's okay, Cathy, as long as you..."
"I love you."
"Huh?" Sean turned his head in surprise. Catherine stretched out: "Ah... I'm so tired. I'll take a nap first." It was already dark when we arrived at Catherine's house. Sean cooked a good meal and the two of them ate happily.
Catherine looked in great spirits. The haze of Angelo's disappearance has been weighing on her mind. Although it won't disappear so quickly, it can be seen that she is starting to let go of the baggage.
It's her birthday after midnight, and Sean plans to stay with her tonight. Late at night, Catherine lay on her bed and looked out the window.
The moonlight outside the window is very bright. Sean propped his head next to her: "Can you sleep?" She shook her head slightly: "Go to sleep."
"Happy birthday, Cathy."
"Thank you, Sean."
"Actually, I have a gift for you."
"What?"
"Lie down and close your eyes." Catherine closed her eyes with a puzzled smile on her face. She heard Sean snap his fingers lightly.
Then, as if by magic, she heard raindrops outside the window. One drop, two drops, and then a continuous sound of rain.
The night sky was clear in the New Testament, and suddenly it started to rain. She opened her eyes in surprise and saw it was really raining outside the window.
The patter of rain makes people feel calm.
"Sean, how did you..." She suddenly remembered that he had obtained a drop of rainwater, a mysterious resource called
"A Rain in the New Testament." No rain can come so easily. It is a precious and mysterious resource.
No seeker would use it for something so ridiculous.
"Are you crazy?" The side of the Golden Queen made Catherine feel that this was a waste.
"I hope that in the New Testament, at least one rain will fall for you." She looked at him, speechless.
She looked at him and realized that what this man just said was serious.
"Now, sleep well, my dear." She hugged him and they fell asleep listening to the sound of rain. ·Since the Mars Incident, the Explorer's communication system has been paralyzed.
Until Nietzsche took out an A-level mysterious inheritance that originally belonged to him.
The "Screaming Difference Engine", as a replacement for the spiritual network center, reactivated this spiritual power communication network throughout the Northern New Continent.
It is for this reason that Sean's team gave up using the Explorer playing cards as a contact method, and instead used the lady's
"Bloody Rose". It makes no difference to them. At dawn, there are birds chirping outside the window, and the rain has stopped, turning into a lingering and refreshing sound of dripping on the eaves.
Sean woke up today not without sadness. He was going to a funeral where he was bidding farewell to an important friend.
