Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2239

**That Night**

It was well past midnight, yet the guests at the Jordan household showed no signs of leaving.

Mrs. Jordan brought up a bowl of bird's nest soup to the upstairs bedroom, her smile gentle and caring. "You head off to sleep, dear. I'll ask them to keep it down so they won't disturb you."

Amiee nodded, "Thanks, Mom!"

Sitting at the edge of the bed, Mrs. Jordan's well-preserved skin glowed softly as she watched Amiee. "Finding someone you love and marrying them is the luckiest thing in the world. I wish you all the happiness and fulfillment."

Amiee's eyes were calm and warm, "I will!"

"I and your father haven't set the best example in marriage," Mrs. Jordan said softly, looking down. "Your change in behavior afterward had a lot to do with us, and for that, I am truly sorry."

In that moment, Amiee felt she understood her mother better.

She spoke of finding someone you love and marrying them as the greatest fortune.

But her mother and father had a marriage of convenience, a business union. She must have had someone she loved once but couldn't be with.

After getting married, perhaps she tried to grow fond of her husband, only to realize he had someone else in his heart as well.

Thus, their marriage was one of mutual respect from a distance, the best outcome under the circumstances.

Amiee reached out to hug her mother, whispering, "I don't blame you anymore, but I do hope you both find your happiness."

"No," Mrs. Jordan shook her head gently, "Your father and I will grow old together. Some people, even if not in love, cannot part."

Amiee didn't understand but respected their choice, "Okay, whatever you decide, I will support you."

Because even though they were not in love, they were united in their love for her.
