Chrisâs mother is a standard mixedârace beauty. Even though she is fifty years away now, she can still see her beauty back then.
She should have known they were coming and had been waiting.
Jolene stood at the door watching the mother and son embrace each other tightly.
She thought of Lilith, and wondered how Lilith was doing now, whether she had come out of grief.
Chrisâs mother saw Jolene, patted Chris on the back lightly, let go of him, and looked at Jolene: âYou are Jane, Chris always mentions you to me on the phone.â
âJust call me Jane,â Jolene said.
âMy name is Lucy.â She took the suitcase from Joleneâs hand, touched Joleneâs hand with her fingers, and simply held it: âYour hands are so cold, come in.â
Lucyâs hands were dry and soft, and she spoke in soft, pleasant English, which immediately relaxed Joleneâs spirit.
Chrisâs home is quite big. Although it is an apartment, the decoration is very modern and the decoration is very warm.
Jolene could see that it was a new house, maybe Chris just changed the house for Lucy not long ago.

But his goal was not accomplished.
The wealthy district on the other side of the commercial center is his end.

âHow is Amy?â
âStill in the hospital, already transferred to the general ward.â Lucyâs voice choked up: âThe broken rib almost pierced the lung, almostâ¦â
âWhere is that scumbag? Have you called the police?â Chris said with gritted teeth.
âCalled the police, but that scumbag hired a lawyer and was released on bail. He bit back and said that Amy cheated and provoked him, and he was drinking at the timeâ¦â
âIâm going to kill him!â
âChris.â Lucy cried: âDonât be impulsive, if it wasnât for you, Amy, I wouldnât have told youâ¦â
âThatâs why that scumbag has nothing to fear!â Chris was furious, and his roar echoed throughout the living room.

There is a group photo of Chris and his two sisters on the bedside table, and it can be seen that the relationship is very good.
After a while, she came out of the room.
Chris leaned on Lucyâs shoulder, his curly hair disheveled.
Seeing Jolene come out, Lucy immediately wiped away her tears and patted Chris again.
âJane, Iâll prepare something for you to eat, and then rest after eating.â
Jolene walked over and took a tissue to Chris: âCalm down, you were so noisy just now.â
Chris got up and sniffed, and took Joleneâs tissue: âI didnât cry again.â
âWipe Lucyâs tears.â
âNo need.â Lucy looked at them, and suddenly smiled again: âChris seems to have changed a bit.â
âWhere did I change?â
âIâll get you food and wait in the restaurant.â
Jolene wasnât really hungry, but Lucy had prepared a lot of food.
She didnât have the habit of eating so much in the middle of the night, she ate a little, but Chris gobbled up a lot.
This person, in front of Lucy, is completely different from outside.
Before going to bed, when she closed the door, she heard Lucy talking to Chris.
âDo you like her very much?â
