He was worldly-wise and would take her to try the local specialties. If she couldn’t eat due to acclimatization issues, he somehow had a way to stimulate her appetite.

Being with him was very peaceful.

He was a person who made others feel comfortable.

Ha...

Jasmine Yale tilted her head up, with moist water gleams in her eyes.

She regarded him as a mentor and friend, while he saw her as a pawn.

He treated her well, so well that... even when Navy Caddel criticized him, she was still making the final rebuttal.

Jasmine Yale’s long eyelashes trembled, with dew-like droplets seeming to roll down. She gently blinked, tidying up her emotions.

"Ding-dong"—she pressed the doorbell at home.

"Coming!"

Butler Santana, holding Little Clementine, opened the door.

Jasmine Yale smiled, "I’m back."

Butler Santana didn’t have time to speak as Little Clementine covered her eyes, pretending to be surprised, "Ma...ma..."

In that instant, Jasmine Yale’s heart softened, almost bursting into tears.

She brought Little Clementine into her arms, hugging tightly and giving her a kiss.

Little Clementine was ticklish, constantly dodging.

"Miss Yale, Little Clementine missed you. She woke up very early this morning. I told her that mom would be back soon, and she kept calling ’mom,’ she’s so smart!"

"Mom heard that." Jasmine Yale lowered her head to talk to Little Clementine, "Mom misses you too, baby. I won’t be so busy in the future, I’ll be with you, okay?"

Little Clementine snuggled into Jasmine Yale’s embrace, rubbing against her clothes, her big eyes gushingly looking at Jasmine, innocent and pure.

"Good girl." Jasmine Yale held her and walked into the house.

"Miss Yale, have you had breakfast? Worked late last night, didn’t you?" Butler Santana asked, "I called you but you didn’t answer, I was quite worried."

"Something happened at the company, I decided to resign." Jasmine Yale changed into slippers, playing with Little Clementine, speaking casually.

"Resign? Did the company have big problems?"

"Sort of."

"It’s okay, afraid of not finding a job? No worries, Miss Yale, you’re very capable at work now, you can join any company."

"I won’t let myself be so exhausted anymore, although young, I can’t withstand such turmoil." Jasmine Yale mused, "I’ll focus on Little Clementine."

Butler Santana sensed the exhaustion in Jasmine Yale’s tone and comforted, "It’s okay, Little Clementine is easy to care for and not costly, you don’t need to push yourself so hard."

"Butler Santana, is there breakfast? I’m so hungry..." She chuckled lightly, maintaining the best demeanor.

"Yes, yes, all your favorites."

Butler Santana went to heat breakfast, while Jasmine Yale sat on the sofa playing with Little Clementine.

"Did you have breakfast? Did you sleep well? Mom hasn’t told you stories for a few days, let’s read storybooks today, okay?"

Little Clementine held a fluffy kitten in her hand, standing on Jasmine Yale’s legs, happily playing with her.

At this moment, Jasmine Yale finally felt immense peace of mind.

A heart, relieved.

Sunlight poured onto the window sill in the living room, the entire home clean and bright.

What she wanted had always been simple, just like now, years of tranquility, stability, no wind, no rain.

Last night’s storm had caused her to fall hard in the mud, today, under the sunny sky, she had stood up again.

She would continue walking forward, holding her daughter’s hand.

Even if the road ahead only included the two of them, mother and daughter...
