ir felt helpless. She could do nothing about this childishdy. In the end, she had to share a bed with
her.
In retrospect, ir hadn’t slept in the same bed with anyone in a long time. Back when she was at the
university, she had asionally had a sleepover with Joslyn but apart from that, she liked her bed to
herself. After the graduation, she had been sleeping alone all the time.
Seeing that ir had rolled to one side of the bed, leaving most of the bed empty, Cecelia thought that
the girl was so cute.
“Don’t be nervous, dear. I won’t roll around in my sleep. You can move closer to my side.
ir meekly moved a few inches closer to the middle of the bed.

“Aunt
Cecelia, since you Love girls so much, why didn’t you give birth to a third child when you were young?
Maybe you would’ve had a daughter.”
She suddenly posed a question.
Cecelia had once said that she loved girls, and that she regretted not having a daughter when she
could.
The mother Lay down beside her.
“Wesley’s dad didn’t want me to have a third child.” She sighed, “He saw how much I had to suffer to
give birth. I told him many times I wanted a daughter, because daughters are always warm and
considerate.
Then he told me that I would have two warm and considerate daughters-in-Law in the future, so why do
I have to give birth to a daughter and suffer pain myself?”
After a pause, she looked at ir and continued, “You know, there are always problems between a
mother-inw and a daughter-inw. I’m worried that the young aren’t usually willing to Live with the
elders, or we may have difficultiesmunicating with the young.”
ir nodded in understanding. Indeed, the rtionship between a mother-in-Law and a daughter-in-
law could be sensitive sometimes. It was social phenomenon that urred more than often.
“But you’re a nice person. I think you’ll surely get along with your future daughter-in-Law. There won’t
be a problem in your case,” sheforted the anxious mother.

On hearing her words, Cecelia was thrilled. She turned her body around and looked at ir.
“You said the same things as my husband. He always says that my personality is like a child. I’m good
with people, so I won’t have problems getting along with anyone. If I treat my daughter-inw like my
own daughter, she will surely treat me as a real mother. ir, is that what you think too?”
ir suddenly felt baffled. Why was she asking her that? She wondered if she should take this
opportunity to exin her rtionship with
Niles. But then she decided against it. She’d better off finding a more suitable opportunity to tell the
happy mother. If Cecelia knew the truth now, she might end up having a sleepless night. So she
nodded,
“Yes, I think so too. People should have mutual respect towards each other. Heart to heart, that’s the
basic rule.”
Cecelia suddenly held ir’s hand and said with much emphasis, “Just be yourself. Don’t hold back.”
“What?” ir was confused.
“I heard from your uncle that you used to be upbeat, outgoing.
Cheerful, even. You’re a lot quieter now, maybe because your parents died. ir, you’re like my own
daughter. Do what you want to do. Be who you want to be. Okay?”
The kind mother’s warm words touched ir’s heart. Tears sprang to her eyes and they flowed down
her cheek.
