Only Corinne and Emily remained in the ward, looking at each other shyly.

Emily was the first to break the silence. She smiled gently and said," Moonie, do you still...remember me?" Corinne stared at Emily silently.

Emily sighed with self-blame. "I'm sorry for leaving you all alone for so many years. I'm so sorry..." As Emily's tears fell, Corinne's eyes reddened as well. She shifted her gaze to Emily's bandaged forearm and asked, "How did you get hurt? Is the wound serious?" Emily was taken aback. She glanced at her own forearm and shook her head. "It's nothing serious." Corinne looked into Emily's eyes. Her emotions were complex and bitter. She was not a child anymore, and it also seemed that it was no longer suitable for her to throw herself into her mother's arms carefreely.

"Why did you disappear when Missus Addison calledout to meet you two days ago? Were you avoiding me?" asked Corinne in a trembling voice.

Emily quickly shook her head. "No, no! Moonie, why would I want to avoid you? I just felt ashamed because I hadn't done what a mother should do and didn't know how to face you!" Corinne's eyes turned even redder. "Why... Why did you leavealone back then? Why didn't you cback for me? L.J've been waiting for you!" Emily's tears kept falling. "I didn't mean to... Someone was after me, and I thought keeping you withwould be too risky. That was why I left you in Marvin's care for a while to keep you safe. After the danger had passed, I went back to find you. I swear I did! But Marvin toldyou had died from an illness. He even gaveyour ashes, and I thought... I thought I had lost you forever." knew it! Mom would've never abandonedbecause she doesn't want me!' Corinne thought to herself. For so many years, she firmly believed that her mother never abandoned her, so she never gave up searching for her.

Finally, her perseverance paid off as she finally reunited with her mother.

After getting the answer from Emily, Corinne held her hand shyly. "Who was after you?" Emily's face turned a shade paler, and she seemed very reluctant to answer her.

However, Corinne was able to guess the answer by her reaction. "It was the Riveras, wasn't it? They wanted you dead, didn't they?" Emily's eyes reddened as she emotionally croaked, "Moonie, they were only after me, not you. You don't have to worry..." Corinne held Emily's hand tightly and said, "At this point, does it really matter whether they were after you or me? They were the reason we were torn apart!"

Emily took a deep breath. "I don't want to judge others, but you should know Lucas had nothing to do with this. He cares a lot about you." Corinne scoffed. "That doesn't make a difference to me." Emily did not want to burden her kids with the grievances of the previous generation.

"Moonie, Lucas was just a child back then. There was nothing he could do, so we shouldn't blhim." Corinne looked at Emily. "You don't wantto settle scores with the Riveras?"

Emily smiled wryly. "There's no score to settle. It's been so many years, and m I don't want to bring up those bothersmatters again. I cback this tbecause Melinda toldshe saw someone who looked a lot like my daughter. It's been my plan all along to go back to Molomia after I found you. I'm going to let bygones be bygones." Corinne frowned. "So you're saying you're going to leaveagain?"
