Mary returned home and opened the door. Suddenly, she saw her mother who was sleeping on the sofa in the living room. Catherine crossed her arms and fell asleep on the sofa and didn't cover herself with the blanket.

Mary was heart-struck. She did not expect her mother to sleep on the sofa. It was still early Spring and is very cold here. Some tears are all hovering in her eyes. She hurriedly went into her bedroom and took out a blanket, cover her mother with it. But her mother was accidentally woken up.

Catherine opened her eyes in alarm and saw her face. She sat up with a stunned expression: "honey, why are you here? What time is it?"

"Mom, why are you sleeping on the sofa? "You haven't covered yourself with a blanket. You'll catch a cold easily." Mary suppressed the pain in her heart and asked her softly.

"Oh, I might have been too tired from work and fell asleep on the sofa as soon as I got home!" Catherine quickly explained with a smile.

Mary sighed lightly, and reprimanded: "No matter how tired you are, you have to go back to your bedroom to sleep. I'm not by your side right now, you should take care yourself!" "Alright, don't worry about me. Why are you back so late?" Catherine looked at her phone, it was almost 10 o'clock.

"Oh, I... I just need to go home and pick up some things that I need to use tomorrow!" Mary hurriedly lied.

"Is that so? "Then if you need anything in the future, just call me. I can help you send it over!" Catherine frowned, thinking that she must be tired to be back so late.

Mary suddenly felt like crying, and the feeling was extremely strong. She quickly turned her back and said, "Mom, I'm going to take a bath!"

Catherine was startled as she watched her quickly enter the bedroom.

Mary locked herself in the bathroom and leaned against the wall. Maybe she really grew up and began to understand the difficulty of being a single mother. Others might think that her mother had neglected her own child, but she knew that her mother had given her all her personal time since she was young, and she was even more demanding that one day she wouldn't be looked down upon because she was a child of a single family. She used to be indifferent to what others said, but now, why shouldn't she bear it anymore?

Perhaps, she understood to feel sorry and care for her mother. Her mother truely did very well, and she didn't want anyone to say bad things about her mother, so she couldn't listen to a single word. "Mary..."

Catherine's voice came from outside the door. Mary was so frightened that she quickly turned on the water cage beside her, allowing the splashing water to cover the pain in her heart.

"Mary, are you alright?" Catherine was still very sensitive, she felt that her daughter was not well, thus, she was worried and came over to talk to her.

Mary hurriedly reached out her hand to cover her lips to prevent her choked voice from spilling out. The sound of the water was too loud, so Catherine had to stop shouting for her.

When Mary came out, she took a bath as well and washed her hair. The tears in her eyes were also held back.

Catherine was sitting on her bed. When she saw Mary come out, she came over and asked her with concern: you don't look too good. Did you quarrel with Leo?"

Mary was startled and quickly shook her head: "No,"

"Good,, I'm sure he won't argue with you." Catherine chuckled. Although she is not so familiar with Leo,, she still felt that she can trust him.

"Mom, I'm going to sleep. Don't worry about us. We're fine!" Mary comforted her mother.

"Alright, go to sleep early!" Catherine smiled at her before she closed the door and left.

Mary stood,, looking at this pink colored bedroom. Her mother used all she had to give her the environment of a princess, and she really felt that her mother was already well. Early morning on the next day, Joshua woke up from a nightmare. It was unknown how long it had been since he had had such a nightmare, and that dream was too real.

"Damn it, I must be a devil!" Joshua muttered an incantation in frustration before entering the bathroom. He splashed cold water on his face to wake himself up.How could he have dreamt that Elizabeth had left him? Besides, she had broken up with him and married another man, and he had gone to her wedding to make a scene while she held a knife and threatened him to leave, or else she would cut her wrists and kill herself. He rushed over and saw that her hand was on the knife, and the blood had dyed his eyes red.

"She's not that stupid!" Joshua laughed in ridicule. Elizabeth would definitely not commit suicide.

Joshua walked out of the bedroom and opened the fridge. It was empty, with nothing to eat.

When she lived here in the past, she would remind him of buying some things. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he would fill up the refrigerator. He had wanted to have breakfast at home, but now he could only go out and eat.

Joshua once again returned to his single life. When he woke up alone, he went to work alone, driving his car, and stopped by the traffic lights. Seeing the man and woman in the car beside him laughing, he felt like stepping on the gas pedal faster. Having fallen in love for a while, even his heart had become fragile. He could no longer bear the blow.

When Joshua was about to reach the company, an idea suddenly flashed past his mind. He suddenly stepped on the brake, and at the next intersection, he suddenly turned the car to the other way.

The road led directly to the seaside. The ocean scenery along the coast was exceptionally spectacular.

Joshua stepped on the throttle until it reached its limit, and then rushed towards Elizabeth's current address.

When he parked his car, he sprinted towards the elevator. While he was waiting for the elevator, he took out his cell phone and decided to give her a call. If she wasn't up by this time, he could bring her some breakfast.

"Wow!" A few women who passed by exclaimed in admiration at his figure. Because he was wearing sunglasses, no one could clearly see his face, but his figure was already stunning.

Joshua was looking forward to hearing Elizabeth's voice, but the prompt was that the phone was turned off.
