Chapter 1967
Calvin preferred his life now.
Every day he could see Hilaria and Ivy.
He loved to grow fruits and vegetables for them to enjoy.
Watching them savor his produce, Calvin always felt as though he was not just harvesting food, but happiness!
“Why the long face, sweetheart?” Rosalynn asked, pulling out a ripe tomato from the basket.c2
Ivy tried to gather her strength but her spirits drooped immediately, “A lot of people were asking me where Liam had gone. He did not just ignore my messages, he ignored everyone’s.”
Rosalynn paused slightly.
“He compiled all his study materials, review notes, and sent them to his friends. And then he just went silent.”
Although Liam seemed aloof, his upbringing had made him appear cold.
But Rosalynn knew that he cherished those who were kind to him.
He would not just cut off from everyone while studying abroad?
This was not like Liam at all.
“Liam is all by himself overseas and he may need some time to get used to his new life.” Rosalynn returned from her thoughts and said to Ivy, “Once he settles down, he might reconnect with his friends back home.”
“Would he reconnect with me too?” Ivy asked immediately.
“Anything is possible!” Rosalynn answered ambiguously.
Ivy drooped her head again, “Goodbyes are so annoying. I hate them!”
Rosalynn gently ruffled her hair, “But darling, life is all about continuous encounters and goodbyes.” Her voice was soft and gentle.
Ivy, with teary eyes, buried her face into her mom’s embrace.
“But I just hate partings, waaaa!”
Rosalynn could feel it. Her daughter was genuinely upset.
She did not scold or blame her, but instead soothed her by patting her back and murmuring comforting words.
After a while.
Calvin came over with two boxes full of ripe tomatoes, and she finally stopped crying.
Ivy’s first life lesson about goodbyes came unexpectedly and was incredibly hard to accept.
After putting away the tomatoes, she took an early shower and retreated to her room.
Wayne knew why she was upset, but he did not try to console her.
He stayed in his study, taking care of his work.
