"Good night," Jeanne said and left.
The moment she left, George suddenly called out to her, "Mom."
"Hm?"
"You won't leave me behind again, right?"
It seemed like he was now traumatized.
She said, "Of course."
No matter who she left behind, it would never be him.
With that, Jeanne closed the door.
It was getting late. Although she had slept all day and was not sleepy, she should return to the room.
When she was at the door to Edward's room, she still felt a little unsettled.
However, she gritted her teeth and pushed open the door, only to see that Edward had returned to the room. He had even showered and was lying on the huge bed, reading a book.
Jeanne frowned. 'Wasn't he watching TV downstairs?'
Now, they were in a closed room again…
She quietly composed herself and walked straight into the bathroom.
Edward looked at Jeanne, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile.
