Every place she passed seemed to echo with memories of lan. They had once kissed on a swing, basked in the sunlight lying on the grass. Together, they would run around the yard with their little dog, Snow. Every place she went seemed to carry the essence of lan.

Then Clara sighed, "If only he wasn't Leonora's son." But the world wasn't made of "ifs." It was just a fanciful wish she harbored deep inside.
Clara chuckled at herself, a hint of self-mockery in her laughter.
Just then, she saw Chase's car pulling in. Sasha, like a little kite, ran towards her. "Clara, I cto see my godson!" She approached Clara, handing her a colorful cupcake. "While your husband's not home, sneak a bite, but not too much, okay? We wouldn't want to affect my godson's growth." When she saw her, Clara's spirits lifted significantly. She stuck out her tongue, taking a lick of the cupcake, and closed her eyes in contentment. "How cyou're free to visit today?" "Of course. I missed you, and I missed my godson even more.

Hearing this, Sasha kicked towards Chase but missed as he dodged. The two started chasing each other around the yard, with Snow barking behind them.
When Clara saw this scene, a smile finally broke across her face.

Chase took out his phone, snapped a picture of Clara, and sent it to lan. "Made your wife laugh. Don't I get something for that?" lan opened the picture of Clara, whose face beamed with joy. He et couldn't help but gently stroke ber cheek on the screen. He themsent Chase a generous gift. S
