Chapitre 51: You are so precious, you should know that

The next day...

"Mom, I'm leaving now," Angelica said, then hugged her mother, as this morning she was departing back to San Diego but not with Kate, as she had returned the last night.

"Take care, sweetheart... Always remember mom's advice to be cautious in your interactions," Emma replied, patting Angelica's back.

Angelica closed her eyes briefly, feeling stung by her mother's words because she found herself trapped in a relationship she didn't like.

"Don't worry too much, Mom," Angelica pleaded.

She quickly released her embrace, gazing at her mother with teary eyes.

"If only you could come with me, maybe we wouldn't have to part like this," she said.

"It's okay..." Emma wiped Angelica's tears, smiling warmly. "We can still video call... You can also come back when Charlie permits you to take a break. I know he's good to you, but don't take advantage of his kindness too much."
