Chapter 1839One week later, Vinson did as he promised. Then, he reported his actions to Gaspar at the latter’s
grave.
Arielle, who had come to Lightspring along with Vinson, went to see the Wilhelms once they were done
with Gaspar. She then brought the three of them back to Chanaea.
“Dad, Mom, this is the clinic I bought for you. There’s a kitchen and dining room at the back. It also has
a yard where you can plant flowers and grapes. On top of that, the bedroom and study are upstairs.”
Arielle was showing the Wilhelms their future home.
The thought of being able to stay in the same place as Arielle filled Pat with elation. As he was the first
one to rush upstairs excitedly, he jumped for joy when he saw that the renovations for his room were
done according to his tastes.
“San, I love this room so much that I want to stay here forever!” Pat could now speak Chanaean
fluently.
“Sure!” Upon pinching his bony cheeks, Arielle lamented to herself over how much weight he had lost.
As Hubert and Vinson looked around the clinic, Arielle led Andrea upstairs to see the latter’s room.
“San, how much did you spend on the house? Let me pay you back for it,” Andrea suggested as she
gave Arielle a warm look.
However, her words annoyed Arielle. “Mom, I bought this place for you. Why are you even talking about
money? This is my way of showing how much I care about you.”
All this while, Andrea always felt that Arielle had it tough as a girl and was reluctant for her to spend so
much money. However, the latter’s explanation succeeded in changing her perspective.“In that case, we gladly accept this gift of yours,” Andrea replied with a smile.
When it was time for dinner, Arielle invited Susanne to join all of them at Maureen’s Kitchen. Given how
the Wilhelms‘ fame extended throughout the world, Susanne was filled with admiration for them.
After dinner, Vinson sent the Wilhelms back to their clinic before driving home together with Arielle and
Susanne.
Right before Vinson and Arielle headed upstairs to their room, Susanne stopped her son and
apologized, causing him to be stunned.
Why is Mom saying sorry all of a sudden?
Susanne had initially thought that saying the words would be hard, but the moment she did, a sense of
relief descended upon her.
However, faced with Vinson’s baffled expression, she explained, “I shouldn’t have slapped you at the
prison back then…”
If Arielle hadn’t made the effort to clear the air that night, she would still be blaming her son for what
happened. Thus, she was thankful to Arielle for the latter’s actions.
novelbinUpon learning the reason for her apology, Vinson came back downstairs and gave Susanne a hug.
“Mom, I’ve never blamed you.” He understood how her guilt over Gaspar drove her to strike him.
Susanne, eyes reddened, patted him gently on the back.
“Both of you should rest. I’m tired too.”After releasing Vinson, she turned and headed for her room. As for Arielle, she came back down and
held Vinson’s hand before slowly ascending the staircase.
Truth be told, she was grateful for Susanne’s apology as she knew that Vinson was unable to look past
the matter, even though he never showed it. With that, the slap Susanne had given him was now a
thing of the past.
