Albert offered a faint smile, though the heaviness in his expression betrayed his true feelings to his mother.
It wasnt until Helen had put Jeslyn to bed that she broached the topic with her son, preparing a cup of tea to ease the tension.
After taking a sip, Albert complimented, Mom, the tea you brew is exceptional. | cant find anything like this anywhere else. | should have Emma learn from you one of these days.
Helen shook her head, disapproving. So, youve hired a secretary just to serve you tea? What a waste of talent! Over the years, youve become more composed, but youve lost some of your honesty and individuality.

He leaned against the sofa, touched his forehead and sighed. | guess Im just getting older. | dont have the same energy | used to.
Helen leaned in, gently massaging his temples.
Ive heard youve been spending time with Jessie lately. Jeslyn mentioned that she turned you down. What happened? If you still have feelings for her, you should do everything you can to win her back.
Dont let her slip away again.
Albert sighed, his gaze distant.
Shes seeing someone else now. Hes a doctor. They seem to be happy together.
Helen was taken aback. She knew from mutual acquaintances that Jessie hadnt been involved with anyone in years. Why had she suddenly found a boyfriend as soon as Albert returned to Duefron? Was Jessie defending Albert as if he were a contagious virus?
Thinking of this, Helen couldnt help but burst into laughter.
Albert couldnt help but protest in a low voice in front of his mother, Youre mocking me too? Helen teased back, Well, you deserve it. Shes treating you the way you treated her in the past. | think its fair. You still have feelings for her, Albert, and its evident. Perhaps all you can do now is observe quietly and see if theres any opportunity. But remember, no matter how much you care for her or how influential you may be, you cant interfere with her current relationship. Jessie has been through a lot before. She used to love you deeply, but Helen paused, her heart filled with pity for both Jessie and Albert.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was a time when her son could have had the perfect relationship and family.
After a prolonged silence, Albert said softly, | understand. | promise you.
Meanwhile, as Albert remained absent, Axells relationship with Jessie flourished.
In early June, Axells parents expressed a desire to meet Jessie upon learning of their sons new girlfriend.
Axel shared the news over the phone with a smile.
Jessie covered the receiver, sharing a glance with Lettie. Sensing their romance was blossoming, Lettie offered a gentle suggestion, Its a rare opportunity for them to visit. You should meet them. No pressure, though.
