Interrupted by his usations, Loraine calmed down. She nced at him and replied, “I bought it


    myself!”


    Marco hesitated, his hand instinctively reaching up to touch the tip of his nose, a sign of guilt creeping


    onto his face.


    At that moment, a coatnded on his arm. Loraine raised her chin, indicating that the ointment had


    been applied, and gesturing for him to put it on quickly.


    Silently, Marcoplied and wore the coat, but he couldn’t resist asking, “Why did you suddenly buy a


    pocket watch? Do you have a preference for mechanical watches?”


    Loraine exined, “This watch was designed by Endy.”


    Marco was momentarily taken aback before eximing, “You like Endy? I will buy all his designs for


    you!”


    Helpless and at a loss for words, Loraine realized he was as extravagant as ever when it came to


    spending money. After all, he possessed wealth and capability and could easily replenish his funds.


    She sighed and gazed at the pocket watch, lost in thought. After a long pause, she said slowly, “It’s not


    that I like Endy, but my father did.


    My father also had a pocket watch with the same design, but it broke.”


    Unconsciously holding his breath, Marco Listened intently.


    “after my parents passed away… Everyone in my family was devastated.


    When they found me, they poured all their love onto me. So, I bought this pocket watch not only to


    bring joy to my grandfather but also as a keepsake to remember my parents.”


    Although she couldn’t recall her parents’ faces, Loraine knew from her family members’ ounts that


    they loved her deeply.


    Consequently, whenever Loraine came across anything rted to her parents, her attention would be


    involuntarily drawn to it.

    Silently, Marco Listened. Though he only heard a few words, he sensed that the bond within the Torres


    family ran deep, thicker than water.


    Aldo had spent his entire Life in the business world, exuding dignity.


    Yet, in Loraine’s presence, he transformed into a kind and jovial old man, fiercely protective of his


    granddaughter.


    Rowan and Wesley, powerful figures in their respective fields, became nothing more than doting uncles


    in front of Loraine. Their close rtionship often led to misunderstandings from outsiders.


    Even though Loraine’s parents had passed away over a decade ago, their absence was still deeply felt


    within the family.


    Thus, despite Loraine not having vivid memories of her parents, she naturally Longed for their


    presence.

    This was the essence of what a family should be.


    Marco couldn’t help but draw a parallel with the Bryant family.


    Loraine had a family that loved her unconditionally, while she had endured much suffering after


    marrying into the Bryant family.
