Upon hearing what Sophia said, the server immediately changed his tone and said politely, “This way
please, Miss!”
So this is the lady that woman has been waiting for! The server didn't dare to stop Gwendolyn in her
tracks anymore.
Gwendolyn walked to Sophia's table and sat opposite Sophia. With a smile, Gwendolyn said, “Ms.
Sanders, did you reserve the entire restaurant? I'm supposed to be paying for lunch.”
Gwendolyn was capable of reserving the entire restaurant as well, but she had never done such a
thing.
Sophia smiled faintly and passed Gwendolyn the menu. “How can I let you pay for a meal in
Willowbank? Tiffany told me you're leaving tonight. Let's just treat this as a farewell lunch. When I visit
you in Avenport in the future, you can bring me out for a meal of local delicacies in return.”
Gwendolyn couldn't reject Sophia because, after all, Sophia was being kind. “Sure. Give me a call
whenever you're in Avenport. I have three kids, and they're all very hospitable. I'll introduce you to them
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthen.”
The two chatted for a while before ordering their dishes.
Sophia still remembered Gwendolyn's favorite dishes.
After all, Gwendolyn was her daughter. They had been apart for over two decades, and not a day gone
by did Sophia not miss Gwendolyn.
Gwen has already grown up to be a beautiful woman. Regardless of what she had been through,
what's important is that she's healthy and well. Besides, she has a kind heart. As a mother, Sophia was
content with the woman her daughter had grown up to be.
After Gwendolyn ordered her food, she looked at Sophia and said, “Ms. Sanders, you should order the
food you like as well. The ones I ordered are slightly spicy. I don't know if you'll be okay with the flavor.”
Little did Gwendolyn know that Sophia had the same preference as her when flavors were concerned.
Growing up in Avenport, Sophia liked spicy dishes as well.
Sophia smiled and replied, “The dishes you ordered are some of my favorites as well. It seems that we
have the same taste in food.”
Gwendolyn chuckled in response. I feel there's a special connection between the two of us. She's so
friendly and warm.
Once the dishes were served, they both kept piling up each other's plates.
“You should eat as well, Ms. Sanders. You can't keep watching me eat,” Gwendolyn said.
At that moment, Sophia was over the moon because that was the first time she had ever watched her
daughter eat. My daughter looks so pretty with her big eyes and high nose bridge. She looks so sweet!
In fact, she was a sweet little girl when I named her. When she smiled, she would show off her dimples
to the whole wide world.
“All right, I'll eat.” Sophia was tearing up. I wonder when we will ever meet again.
“Gwen, I heard you were out with your boyfriend last night. What does he do? Is he nice to you?”
Sophia asked. Gwen got pregnant out of wedlock and lived an ordinary life. I hope she can find and
marry a good man. I would be so happy for her.
The thought of Patrick brought a smile to Gwendolyn's face. “He's a CEO, and he's nice to me.”

CEO? That means he's financially stable. That's what one should look for in a man. Sophia deboned a
fish for Gwendolyn.
“Oh, I see. It's good as long as he's nice to you. Does he mind the fact that you have kids?” That was
Sophia's main concern. My daughter is a pretty lady, so she deserves a happy marriage. She grew up
without a mother's guidance, and that was why she went on the wrong path in life. Nevertheless, she
deserves a man who cherishes her.
Obviously, outsiders didn't know who was at fault for Gwendolyn's pregnancy.
Gwendolyn lifted her bright eyes at Sophia and said, “Not only does he not mind, but he also loves the
kids. Ms. Sanders, I'll introduce him to you when you visit Avenport in the future.”
There was a warm expression on Gwendolyn's face when she thought about Patrick. It was as though
she had just found her first love.
Seeing that, Sophia assumed Gwendolyn had a nice boyfriend. I hope that man will treasure Gwen for
the rest of his life.
Sophia knew she had to visit Avenport one day. That place was hellish for me. I spent the first half of
my life there, and the people who hurt me deeply are there. However, I'm still eager to see how my
daughter has been doing. I must go there when I'm free.
