At night.
Willow's home.
After returning from Reach For Will Group, Willow had been staying in Sean's room.
Fion made dinner and brought it to Willow's room.
However, when Fion came in two hours later, the food was still untouched.
"Girlie, how could you not eat?"
Fion was so heartbroken that she sat at the bedside with Willow.
Willow just sat there without saying a word with a photo in her hand.
It was Sean in the photo, and it was the only photo of him.
"Mom, do you remember?
"I had Sean photographed when I wheeled him for a walk along the river.
"You said I was wasting money at the time."
Willow looked at the photo and murmured to herself.
In the photo, Sean was sitting quietly in his wheelchair, staring at the river in the distance.
He might not be very handsome in the profile shot, but he was easy on the eyes.
When Willow saw Sean's photo, it calmed her down.
Fion froze, took the photo out of Willow's hand, and put it in her pocket after taking a glance.
"Girlie, I'm not saying he's bad.
"Whatever it is, it's over between you two."
Fion took Willow's hand and said as she shook her head slightly.
She already knew about Willow's deal with Old Madam Quinn.
Willow had not solved the Quinn family crisis, so her fate had been determined.
She was bound to marry Quill.
"You know what, Mom? I saw him again today.
"He... I... You have no idea how happy I was when I saw him."
Willow started talking incoherently when she mentioned Sean.
She thought she did not like Sean, but her heart could not deceive herself.
The joy she felt when she saw Sean was something you have when you like someone.
"My dear, you need to be realistic!
"Have you solved the Quinn family's crisis?"
Fion shook her head in resignation before asking.
Willow's smile froze before shaking her head in silence.
"You didn't solve the issue.
"So, you'll have to marry Quill as the Quinn family arranged.
"Young Master Zimmer's family is powerful, and he likes you. He has pursued you for two years without giving up.
"I'll be relieved if you marry him."
Fion grabbed Willow's hand as she said sternly.
