But all of a sudden, she saw a small figure in the darkness approaching her.
It looked delicate.
“Edwin?" Cecilia gasped in shock.
She quickly put down the glass in her hand because she didn't want him to see her drinking.
But Edwin quietly knelt beside her and touched her head.

Edwin snuggled deeper into her arms and murmured, “Dad loves Mom too.
