Chapter 140

The sweet and adorable daughter Delilah had always imagined seemed to be just that - an imagination.

With a wistful sigh, Delilah placed several shopping bags onto the table and playfully said, “Oh sweetheart, could

you maybe be just a tad cuter for your mom?” Finishing her sentence, she winked exaggeratedly and flashed a

silly peace sign at Mirabella.

Mirabella’s gaze flitted over Delilah’s peace sign. Her brow furrowed for a moment, and then she conveniently

ignored her mother’s words and asked, “Mom, got anything to eat?” Delilah gave another sigh, “Of course, |

slowly savoring her meal.

After dinner, Mirabella picked up the shopping bags from the table and had just reached the foot of the stairs

when she suddenly turned back to Delilah, who was lounging on the sofa watching a TV show. “Mom, do we have

Delilah looked up. “Well, there is a storage room downstairs but it's pretty cluttered. What do you need it for?”

“It’s not for storage, really. | need sspace to work on crafts, something separate,” Mirabella replied in her

usual unhurried manner.

“Oh, I see...” Delilah pondered for a moment and then suggested, “You know, Nick’s room is empty. You could

use that room. It's just next to yours on the left.”

There was a brief silence before Mirabella asked, “Would that be alright?”

Delilah chuckled and shook her head. “Of course, it’s fine. Nick's settled abroad and hardly comes home. It’s just

sitting empty.”

Mirabella nodded and ascended the stairs.

Once she was gone, Delilah rubbed her chin in thought and turned to her husband. “Shawn, don’t you think our

current house is getting a bit cramped?”

Pausing, she continued, “Look, we don’t even have a private space for our daughter. Sure, Nick's living overseas,

but knowing our girl, she'll feel uncomfortable using his room indefinitely.”

Shawn set down the remote control and thought it over, finding Delilah’s point valid. “How about we move to

Sunnydale Heights? The neighborhood's nicer, and the houses are bigger. There's more room, and it’s closer to

our daughter's school. Plus, if she wants to have friends. over, we won't have to worry about not having enough

space for them to stay.”

“That's right. | have completely forgotten about the villa in Sunnydale Heights,” Delilah slapped her forehead.

“I'll get in touch with an interior designer tomorrow to see what renovations we need and what furniture we

should get. We'll make it a priority to move in quickly and surprise our girl.”

True to her nature, Delilah was all about swift action. After finishing her conversation with Shawn, she grabbed

her phone and started scrolling for the designer's number, promptly making a call to set up a meeting for the

next day.

Having arranged the appointment, Delilah put her phone down and was suddenly struck by a tinge of

melancholy. She glanced around the room and sighed, “It’s hard to leave a place you've lived in for over twenty

years.”

Shawn raised an eyebrow and patted her shoulder. “It’s for our daughter.”

The sentiment of leaving a hof more than two decades quickly faded when compared to their daughter, who

had faced many challenges growing up.

“You're right. We might be used to this old house, but our daughter deserves the best,” Delilah paused, a flicker

of regret in her eyes. “I wish we had thought to move before she cback.” Perhaps then, there wouldn't have

been any misunderstandings about debts in the family.
