Caroline took a look at her phone and saw that Marietta was calling her.
She quickly answered the call. “Hi, Aunt Mary.”
“Hey, Carrie. I’m calling to apologize,” Marietta said on the phone. She had lost her usual high

“What happened that day was Yvonne’s fault. She shouldn’t have treated you like that.”
Caroline replied, “Aunt Mary, you don’t have to apologize.”
“No, Carrie. I won’t feel at ease if I don’t apologize.”

However, she never regretted calling Marietta her mother because she finally understood what
maternal love felt like after spending time with her.
“I’m going to bring Yvonne home the day after tomorrow.”
Marietta took a breath and continued, “But we’ll head over to Macldo first. Carrie, do you have
anything you want? I’ll buy it for you.”
“No, it’s okay,” Caroline declined.
“Getting your wish fulfilled is the best gift for me.”
Her words struck a chord in Marietta’s heart. Caroline was really too sweet. But people who were
kind would always suffer.
Marietta thought about something seriously and then said, “Carrie, I’m going to a casting call
tomorrow. There’s a screenwriter who I’m close with, and her literary skills are as good as mine. If
you ever find any problems, you can always meet her.”
“Okay.” Caroline slowly sat on the bed. She hugged her knees sadly, feeling as if a knife had cut

her that her daughter was missing
It seemed that she really saw Caroline as her daughter. Unfortunately, Yvonne didn’t seem to like
Caroline that much.
Marietta didn’t want Caroline to be wronged like that again. Moreover, she was about to leave
Easton. She would feel more at ease if someone looked after Caroline on her behalf
“Mom!” The door was pushed open, and Yvonne walked in excitedly.
“The yacht you gave me is so cool! Many friends called me just now, saying they wanted to see it.
Is that okay?”
“Of course. If you like it, I can always buy another one for you.
“You’re the best, Mom!” Yvonne kissed Marietta on the cheek.
Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at Marietta sternly. “Mom, you didn’t contact

Marietta’s expression shifted slightly at her question.
