Chapter 783: Chapter 783

"Mom, Mae, Dave, what are you guys doing here?" Mien asked as he stepped out of his apartment. "Shouldn't you be showing mom her place?"

"Yep, it's right next door." Mae said with a nod. "We were wondering if you and Aunt Lara would want to join us."

"Let me check if Mo-, no, Aunt Lara wants to join us." Mien said as he quickly corrected himself, remembering that his aunt was not his biological mother.

"You can call her mom, I don't mind. I won't be hurt." Marisa said as she reassured her son. "She raised you. She was more of a mother to you than I have ever been." She explained.

"No mom." Mien said as he shook his head. "You did the hardest thing for a mother, you sent your own child away to protect me. I should call you mom."

"We can both be your moms." Lara said as she came out of Mien's apartment. "You don't need to choose Mien. You can even call me aunt if you feel that is more appropriate."
