More than a month has passed in a flash. Lily has already received four times of treatments, which is a
third of the whole process. Although it is painful every time, her scars have become lighter and lighter
under the intense laser treatment. She used to think that she would have to live with these scars in her
lifetime, but now she finally sees hope.
As long as she can recover, everything will be worth it.
She still can't find the part of her lost memories. Occasionally, sporadic fragments flash by, but they
can't form a complete image. However, her relationship with Adair and other family members has
become very natural. Perhaps this is something that is carried in their bones and can't be changed.
She feels that she can handle the things by herself until this morning, when Rex's parents come.
At ten o'clock in the morning, she is in the living room reading the materials of the previous flower shop
when the doorbell suddenly rings. Fanny goes to open the door and sees two strangers.
"Hello, may I ask who are you?"
"We are Rex's parents." They hear a deep and loud voice. Not only does Fanny hear it, but Lily, who is
sitting on the sofa, also hears it.
She immediately stops flipping through the flower manual and hurriedly stands up to greet them.
At the entrance of the villa, a woman is dressed in a blue-and-white suit, with a fine emerald necklace
hanging around her neck, and a limited-edition ostrich leather bag in her hand. Behind her is a young
girl.
Is she Rex's mother?
She doesn't look like a person in her fifties or sixties at all. She even looks like in her early forties.
"Florence, she is your sister-in-law." Seeing her coming, Amelia immediately reminds the girl beside
her.
The little girl greeted her, "Hello."
"Hello." Lily is a little confused about the situation, but she still let them in very politely. She hurriedly
turns around and says to Fanny, "Go upstairs and call Rex down."
"Alright."
After Fanny leaves, the three of them are left in the large living room and they look at each other
embarrassedly. Lily doesn't know what to say, and she is afraid that she will make mistakes, so she
stands up and starts to make tea for them.
"I hear that you aren't in good health recently. I've always been worried about this, but I'm afraid that it
will be inconvenient for you if we come over. How have you recovered now?" Amelia speaks first with a
kind attitude.
Lily doesn't dare to answer casually. After all, her experience in Country Y is truly unimaginable. She
isn't sure if Rex has told his family, so she only lightly nods her head and says, "It doesn't matter. I am
fine now."
"That's good. I have two cards for ordering bird's nest here. Take them." As she speaks, Amelia hands
over a small black card bag.
Lily is not used to this kind of concern. Fortunately, Rex comes down from upstairs and changes the
topic. "Mom, why are you here?"
Amelia looks over, but before she can speak, Florence beside her has already called him, "Rex"
Rex looks at his younger sister and snorts softly, "Hi."
"It has been so long since you came back. But you haven't come home yet. I just know about your
situation on the phone. I can't visit Miss Lily even if she is sick. I really miss you today. You've been
back for so long and I can't come over to see you, right?" Although Amelia cares for Rex, Lily can hear
that she is also complaining.
However, she is not surprised. Rex has stayed with her for so long. Anyone will be envious. And Amelia
is Rex's mother.
Rex doesn't meet much with Amelia for a year. He is surprised that she comes over this time. He sits
down beside Lily and holds her hands in his palm. Her hands are kind of cold for nervousness. "We're
fine. I'm afraid you'll worry about us if we go back home."
"I am your mother. How can I not worry about you?" Amelia sighs as she speaks. "You should arrange
your time and go back home. We all miss you."
Lily thinks that Rex will be moved upon hearing this, but he only nods calmly and says, "I see."
Because of Amelia's sudden visit, Fanny makes more food for them as lunch, adding a steamed fish
and a chestnut chicken.
Lily sits in the living room and feels uncomfortable. She finds an excuse and go to the kitchen to help
Fanny.
Seeing her leave, Amelia heaves a sigh of relief. After all, she is not familiar with Lily, so she also feels
kind of uncomfortable.
Rex looks at them sitting on the sofa opposite him, and his expression does not change from beginning
to end. "Mom, what exactly are you here for today?"
He studied abroad when he was young, and then Amelia remarried and gave birth to Florence.
Although they are not close, she is still her mother.
Amelia smiles awkwardly. "Well, I'm here to see you. Can't I come if I have nothing else to do?"
Rex nods, "That's not what I meant. It doesn't matter."
She doesn't seem to have expected him to say that. Amelia can't say what she wants to say this way.
She hasn't thought of a way to say it, but Florence is anxious. "Mom, you should tell my brother quickly.
It's been so many days. If you don't tell him now, I won't be able to..."
Although Florence lowers her voice on purpose, Rex still hears what she is saying.
He looks at Amelia's embarrassed expression. She is his mother, so he can't make her too
embarrassed. He asked Florence directly, "What do you want to say? You are a grownup. Can't you tell
me directly?"
Florence immediately shut up. She has always been somewhat afraid of this brother. In her impression,
although Rex usually gave her many things and gave their family money, he always had a frightening
aura. So, when she talks to him, she is always terrified. Now, she is even more frightened.
Rex frowned when he sees her hesitating. "If you don't want to tell me, then I won't ask anymore."
Florence knows that this is her last chance. She gritted her teeth and says finally. "Rex, our school is
recommending students for postgraduate study. I also applied, but it is almost impossible for me to be
recommended. I really want the chance."
She does not continue, but Rex immediately understands what she means.
"You want me to help you get the recommendation place?"
Florence nods slightly. "Yes."
Amelia says in a hurry, "Rex, you also know that your sister's grades are not very good. She can't get
the chance to be recommended. But now education is so important in our society. We can't just let her
go to a bad university."
Rex is expressionless after hearing this. He only asks Florence, "There's still an exam to be a
postgraduate student. Are you not going to take the exam?"
Speaking of the exam, Florence feels even guiltier. She says in a low voice, "Rex, you know my
grades. How can I get into a good university by taking the exam?"
Rex frowns even more tightly. He looks at them and says to Florence in a serious tone, "If you want to
be a postgraduate student, you should take the exam. And you definitely won't be able to learn it well
with such thought."
Hearing what he says, Florence is very disappointed. She doesn't dare to beg him directly, so she can
only beg Amelia. "Mom."
Amelia holds her daughter's hand tightly. She doesn't understand Rex, but she can only say, "Rex, help
your sister this time. She will definitely study hard in the future. No matter what, you are still her brother.
You can't just let her have no university to go, right?"
