    There was a familiar voice.


    “E, are you in there?”


    They seemed to be speaking in the direction of the toilet.


    Ste’s eyes went wide in an instant.


    Justin came to look for her.


    Justin came out to seek her after she had been gone for quite some time and the food had all been


    served.


    Before leaving, he ordered Bryce to not go anywhere.


    Bryce nodded like a good boy. But right after Justin left, his face fell, and he took out his phone.


    After some thought, he sent the text out. Not longter, he received a phone call.


    Bryce’s eyes widened as he turned to face the direction Justin had just left, cautiously answereing the


    phone only after he was certain that Justin wouldn’t return.


    “Mom…” he opened his mouth and called her in a very pitiful voice.


    At first, Tina didn’t notice the sadness in Bryce’s voice since the room was extremely loud. However,


    after clearly hearing it, she instantly grasped the phone, signaled to the people surrounding her and


    headed outside to the balcony. “What’s the matter?” she inquired gently over the phone. He was about


    to tell her, but then he hesitated and asked thoughtfully, “Are you busy now, mom?”

    Tina’s heart softened when she heard this, “As busy as I am, you’re more important to me. What’s


    wrong? You sounded sad just now.” He shook his head and said with a nasal voice, “Today’s my


    birthday.” “Why didn’t youe to fetch me with dad? I don’t want to celebrate it with that miss.” He


    sounded disappointed. “Miss? Which miss?” She subconsciously ignored the first half of his sentence,


    but managed to grasp the main point. “Your father brought that woman to celebrate your birthday with


    you?” Bryce nodded, but he didn’t seem to understand what she meant. “They don’t even know it’s my


    birthday, They brought me here to dinner just to get to know her.”


    It would be a lie to say she wasn’t upset. “Your father just doesn’t know when to stop!” Tina hissed,


    nuhhing her brow


    Thest time, he was admitted to the hospital because of that woman, and now, he even brought her to


    meet Bryce.


    How could he not have discussed this with her?!


    She nced at her watch to see the time.

    In the office, her colleague gestured to her. She frowned and said, “I have a few things to take care of.


    When I’m not busy anymore I’ll celebrate your birthday, okay? Call me after you’re done eating with


    them.” Bryce didn’t want to, but after hearing what she said, he couldn’t help but agree. “Have a good


    day at work, mum.” Tina hummed and after a while, she said, “Send me your location.” After hanging


    up the phone, she went back to her office. She was awyer and right now she has a very tricky case


    in her hand. There was a huge chance that she would be spending the night working overtime in the


    office tonight. Her colleague saw that she was a little overjoyed when got the call, but when she came


    back, she looked solemn. So, he asked casually, “Who called you?” She shook her head and


    answered, “My son.” “Why? Did he cause trouble in school? You seem upset.”


    “Nonsense.” Tina punched him lightly on the shoulder.


    Her colleague smiled and continued discussing the case with her. She paused for a moment before


    suddenly saying, “We still have a week, right?” Her colleague seemed to notice something was wrong


    and asked, “Did something happen at home?”


    “I think it’ll be better if I go and take a look. I’ll be uneasy if I dont,” she said with some embarrassment.
