Andrew didn't know why. When he heard the word "child", he was actually eager to find Evelyn.
Originally, he wanted to find her after he was done, but he had not come back for a long time and he had encountered Kevin's death. Jessica was not in good health now. If he goes out again because of personal issue and doesn't accompany his family at this time, he would look too selfish.
Joshua was in charge of everything at home in the first place. He was supposed to conduct his filial duty for his parents, but he was not around them. As the eldest son, he felt ashamed.
Jessica brought him up. Now she was in poor health, and she might die one day. He can't be so selfish to leave now.
With the consent of her family, Amanda had agreed to go back to Thailand with Joan. However, just before getting on the plane, she received a phone call.
Casimir called.
"My mom is ill. Maybe she doesn't have much time. Before she dies, I want him to come over."
Amanda stood in the airport hall, holding the phone and was stunned. "Your mother, she..."
"She has advanced cancer and is under treatment, but the result is not good. The doctor issued an ultimatum. I know he has his own life, I don't want to disturb him. I just want him to know...my existence."
Amanda said, "I get it. Send me the address and I'll go with him."
"Will he come with you?"
"I’ll come out with something to let him go."
"Good."
The two ended the call and Casimir sent her an address.
"Flight D360 to Bangkok is about to take off. Please get ready for boarding."
"Let's go," said Joan.
Amanda looked at him with regret. "I may not be able to go back to Thailand with you. I have something urgent to deal with."
Joan looked at her for several seconds and finally said, "OK, I'll take you back."
In fact, he was worried that Amanda would change her mind at this time, regret going back to Thailand with him.
But he didn't ask.
Even if she repented, he wouldn't resent her.
