Suzanne was curious yet worried.
Florence felt her irritation grow. The two sat in silence for a while and neither struck up a conversation.

Suzanne followed Florence out of the house. Just then, several military vehicles stopped in front of the house.
Florence was overjoyed and rushed over excitedly. “Oh my! It’s my
son’s car!”
Suzanne’s heart raced uncontrollably. She stood frozen in place and watched as Nathan’s car cto a stop.
Cole and Lucas were the first to get off.

Nathan soon descended too.
After ten days, they finally met again.
He was as handsas ever. Under the sunlight, he appeared dazzling and radiant.
“Hello, Mom.” Nathan smiled gently and hugged Florence.

A shadow crossed Nathan’s features and he gazed at Suzanne.
His heart was already in disarray when he saw how Suzanne addressed him in the letter. However, it was only when he heard it in person that he realized how distant and cold the term sounded.
His heart broke and he hummed coldly. “Hello.”
Suzanne lowered her eyes, not daring to meet his gaze. She was afraid she might burst into tears.
Florence led Nathan in by the hand. “Is it a demanding mission? How long will you be here this time?”
“Just a few days. It’s nothing special.” Nathan noticed Suzanne
wasn’t following them and instead, turned in the opposite direction. He saw her walking toward the greenhouse alone.
