Marilyn Scott's reaction was expected by Charlotte, so she didn't show any sadness. "No matter how hard I try, there are some things that I just can't change," she thought to herself.
But seeing that the situation was much better than before, and no longer so terrible, she realized that at least she had time, and who could predict the future after all?
Henry was worried that his mother's demeanor would hurt Charlotte, so he kept an eye on her expression. When he saw that she seemed fine, he relaxed, understanding that she had accepted it.
Upon arriving at their destination, Henry naturally approached Charlotte, took her hand, and asked, "How are you feeling? Do you want to skip going to the film crew tonight? I'm just not at ease leaving you."
Gently massaging her hand, he tried to relieve the lingering tension from the afternoon's events. Charlotte felt his touch and her heart instantly settled.
