Bella nodded, her gaze briefly drifting towards Summer, who was blending smoothies in the kitchen. Her eyes were tender, radiating an unmistakable motherly warmth. "If someone had offered to helpfind my daughter sooner, maybe I could have reunited with her earlier." "You and Summer..." I hesitated, "Were separated before?" If that was the case...
