章 211: The Original Storyline Crafted by the Author

That night, sleep didn't come easily to Leslie. Aside from recalling the pleasant moments she experienced during the family meal, she also kept envisioning her first meeting with Calliope tomorrow.

Which was the best way to approach her daughter?

How should she interact with her precious child?

Those thoughts kept Leslie awake. Fortunately, she finally drifted to sleep before the clock struck one in the morning. Her lips remained curled up as good dreams accompanied her sleep.
