In the evening, Lisa cooked a lot of dishes.
All of them were what Anna loved to eat as a child. Gemma actually liked them too.
Lisa smiled and looked at Gemma and Anna, "You are really mother-daughter duo. The taste preference is the same."
When saying this, Lisa’s eyes couldn’t help but be brimming with tears. She hurried to lower her head down and wiped them off.
Gemma tilted her head, "Grandma, why are you so weepy? Mommy said that people who love to cry are not cute."
Lisa hurriedly shook her head and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, "No more crying. It's my fault to drop tears on such a happy day."
Gemma had a full stomach and was tired all day, so she soon got sleepy and couldn't stop yawning.
Anna carried Gemma upstairs and covered her with the blanket. And she soon fell into a deep sleep.
Looking at Gemma's cute little face, her heart was filled with warmth and sweetness.
As long as she had her daughter by her side, there was really nothing else she could ask for.
Anna also went to her room and wanted to rest early.
But when she laid on the bed, she tossed and turned and could not sleep.
This bed and its smell were too familiar!
She obviously didn't want to remember, but she still kept thinking about the memories of Liam in this bed.
Then she couldn't help but think of the changes in everyone's life trajectory and let out a sigh of relief.
The people who once lived here were no longer here.
Every step in life was a result yielded by your own acts.
Nicole and Chloe were in such a situation today, all because of their own faults.
But for Daniel...
After all, he was her father.
Anna let out a sigh.
She got up from the bed. She pushed the door out and walked into the garden.
The night breeze was a little cool and she wrapped her coat around her.
"Ms. Anna, why are you still awake?” Lisa followed her out with her coat on.
Anna smiled, "Well, I couldn't sleep after the change of place. Jet lag is difficult to tackle."
Lisa smiled. She took a piece of clothing and wrapped it over Anna's shoulders, "I heard from Webb next door that there is a big time difference between the two countries. It's daytime at home and it might be night abroad."
Anna was amused by Lisa's cute look.
"Yes! The time difference is really big."
"Do you also think too much?" Lisa asked again.
The smile on Anna's face gradually vanished, "It's okay."
Lisa sighed softly, "Don't think too much. It all passed by."
"Yeah."
But who could totally forget the past?
Lisa thought for a while. She looked at Anna, and whispered in a very soft voice.
"Ms. Anna, I know you suffered a lot in the Hamilton family. You have experienced a lot of aggravation and heartache."
"You came back this time and mentioned none of them. Is it that you still hate them in your heart?"
Anna shook her head gently.
"After so many years and having lived in that kind of environment, how could you not have some resentment in the heart?"
Anna didn't want to deny it and didn't say anything.
She did have resentment.
But now that it had passed by, she could let it go.
