Arriving at Soltharion’s first stop, the Woods family took Ivy straight back home.Â
She did express her intention to go to the apartment tactfully, but Doreen rejected it.Â
“The apartment over there was not fully furnished yet, and you still have a long time before school starts. Stay here for now, it will be more convenient.”Â
Reluctantly, Ivy could only agree with a stiff upper lip.Â
Along the way, Doreen held her hand and chattered on about many past events.Â
On one hand, Ivy was grateful to her mother, even after all this time, her friends still cared about her and remembered the youth they had shared together.Â
On one hand, Ivy felt a sense of melancholy. Such a deep friendship, but now they were separated by distance, and only maintained this thread of affection through longing.Â
Mom, who is far away across the ocean, the two people she cares about the most in her life, are now together.Â
But she could only see things and miss people.Â
Wasn’t this a kind of cruelty?Â
As she spoke, Doreen seemed to also realize this, and let out a long sigh.Â
“It would be great if Elle also came.”Â
Ivy detected the regret in her tone and quickly offered a few words of comfort.Â
“It’s okay, Mom said that she would definitely come to see you once her visa is processed.”Â
Doreen immediately showed a happy smile.Â
“A single sentence made me happy. Ivy’s words are really sweet, unlike Bruce, who couldn’t evenÂ
say three sentences in a day.”Â
Upon hearing these words, a hint of surprise flickered in Ivy’s eyes.Â
Was he not just indifferent to strangers before?Â
She instinctively looked up and, through the rear view mirror, happened to meet Bruce’s gaze.Â
The gazes of the two individuals met in the mirror, and then quickly averted.Â

Just when try was ferling a bit awkward, Bruce, wire had been silent the whole way, finally spokeÂ
iip.Â
“When did you mother come? I will arrange the room first.”Â
Upon hearing him say this, Doreen’s reaction was even more significant than Ivy’s, as she suddenly widened her eyes.Â
“Bruce, why are you suddenly so enthusiastic? Did you take the wrong medicine?”Â
Bruce had already gotten used to his mother teasing him, so he calmly retorted.Â
“If I don’t arrange it, you won’t give it to me?”Â
“Hey brat, how do you talk to your mother? Ivy is still here, can’t you create an image of a virtuous wife and mother for your mother?”Â
“Leisurely leisure, is it a bad good?”Â
Listening to the mother and son arguing, Ivy couldn’t help it and burst into laughter, covering her mouth.Â
Bruce’s father also laughed along, and the atmosphere in the carriage, which had been somewhat dull, suddenly became lively.Â
Doreen finally saw the little girl smile, and she also breathed a sigh of relief. She happily touched her head.Â
“Ivy, just treat this place as your own home. Although Bruce doesn’t talk much, just give him direct orders if you need anything. If he dares not to do it, I’ll teach him a lesson for you!”Â
The relaxed and lively family atmosphere made Ivy’s tense heart relax a lot, and she laughed with her eyes curved.Â
After the car stopped, she got off first and prepared to retrieve her luggage.Â
After the rear compartment opened, she was about to reach out, but another pair of hands snatchedÂ
the box before her.Â
She raised her eyes in surprise and saw Bruce nodding at her gently, slightly lifting his chin.Â
“Let me do it, you and my mom go and take a look at the room first.”Â
Ivy knew the weight of her luggage and felt a little embarrassed.Â
She was about to refuse when Bruce spoke up again, his tone tinged with a hint of resignation.Â
