Chapter 53

• Rita. D: Are you busy, Eva? Mommy wants to meet you. Can you?
• The message came in a day ago, but Eva couldn't give a definite answer yet about when they could meet. Part of Eva's heart also longed for the gentle middle-aged woman. There were many things she could share because Eva considered Rita like her own mother. Their last meeting had made Eva feel sick hearing what Rita had told her.
• Though the woman didn't shed a single tear, her sadness couldn't be hidden from her usually calm and warm gaze. Unfortunately, there was nothing Eva could do to ease Rita's sorrow. Whether the distress had lessened or been deliberately pushed aside without resolution, she didn't know.
