    That afternoon, I went to visit Lucas. He knew how to walk. When he saw me, he was very happy. He


    gave me a big apple. I didn’t know if he still remembered me. I heard that the baby’s memory would not


    last long But Lucas was still very friendly to me. I spent the whole afternoon ying with Lucas. It was


    not until evening that I was ready to leave. But Lucas was holding on to my clothes with his chubby little


    hands. He didn’t want me to leave.


    “Don’t… don’t… go!”


    Although I was reluctant to leave Lucas, I had no reason to stay and take care of him. I could only try my


    best tofort him.


    Thugged him, kissed his cheeks, and promised to visit him often in the future.


    Lucas seemed to understand what I said and didn’t continue to make noise.


    He returned to Gary’s arms. Then, I walked to the door.


    Walking out of the vi, I looked through the ck hollow iron door and saw that Gary was holding


    Lucas.


    I was a little sad.


    In order to restrain my emotions, I immediately turned around and prepared to take a taxi to leave. At this


    time, a ck car drove toward me, and the setting sun covered it with ayer of golden light. That car


    belonged to Herbert.


    My heart beat faster.


    Then, the car stopped in front of me. When the door opened, a man in a ck windbreaker walked


    quickly to me. “I know that you’lle to see Lucas today.” Herbert looked at me and said excitedly.


    “Why do you know I’ming today?” I asked him. I didn’t expect to run into him. To be honest, I was


    very surprised. Herbert reached out to hold my shoulder, gently pinched my nose, and said gently,


    “Today is Friday. You know that every Friday afternoon, the Wharton Group will hold a management


    meeting, so you definitely won’t meet me during this time, right?” I didn’t answer. I just lowered my head


    with a smile. He had already seen through my thoughts. Indeed, it was because the Wharton Group was


    going to hold a formal meeting this afternoon, and Herbert definitely wouldn’t show up. That was why I


    chose toe and see Lucas today.

    14:09D already dealt with the rtionship between you and Caroline?” I looked at Herbert. “We’ve been


    complying with our agreement, but we met by chance today, right?” Herbert asked with a smile.


    “No. You did it on purpose.” I said seriously.


    The next moment, he hugged me and stroked my hair with his warm hands. “I miss you so much. I can


    only go against the rules ande here to try my luck to meet you. I’m lucky!” “Is today’s meeting over?”


    Although he vited our agreement, I did not me him. Because I missed him very much and wanted


    to see him.


    Herbert said with a smile, “The previous meeting began at three o’clock in the afternoon. I scheduled the


    meeting to two o‘clock today, so it ended at five o’clock. If I hade another minuteter, I wouldn’t


    have been able to see you. Fortunately, I arrived one minute earlier.”


    I grabbed his cor and teased him with a smile. “Should I be leaving now?”


    “Can you stay with me for another two minutes?” Herbert pleaded.


    I didn’t intend to leave immediately, so I agreed directly. “Okay, I’ll leave in two minutes.”


    After a while, Herbert suddenly said, “Caroline has been discharged from the hospital. I have booked a


    ne ticket for her to Ennd in three days. I will quickly deal with everything and then return to your


    side!”


    I was moved by his words.


    In fact, Herbert was a responsible man. There were too many misunderstandings between us in the past.


    The fact that he had taken good care of Caroline also showed that he was a responsible, kind man.


    I hugged him tightly. His chest was like a heavy mountain worthy of my support.


    A sense of happiness and a sense of security that I have never had before enveloped me, making me


    feel very satisfied.


    As we hugged, time seemed to havee to a standstill. I closed my eyes, silently feeling his strong


    arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, until the sunpletely fell at the foot of the mountain, and the


    nightpletely came. This ce was remote, and almost no one had passed by, so no one disturbed


    us. Because I couldn’t find a taxi, I could only be sent home by Herbert. Connor sat in the driver’s seat,


    focused on driving, while I sat in the back seat with Herbert. I leaned in his arms, my heart filled with


    happiness,


    “It’s all your n, isn’t it? I wouldn’t be able to find a taxi if you dy until night, so I can only ask you to


    take me home.” Iined with a smile.


    Herbertughed smugly. “This is Lucas’s ability to keep you here until it’s almost dark.” My heart


    softened even more when he mentioned Lucas. “Lucas has changed a lot. He can not only walk, but also


    hold me in his arms. He won’t let me go. He will also say some words. He said don’t…


    go.”


    “I’m very happy that you’re so fond of Lucas. Next time, I’ll teach him how to call you mother.” Herbert


    held my waist and smiled.


    I was stunned for a moment. Then I asked, “Who is Lucas’s mother?”


    In fact, in my heart, I really had an impulse to be Lucas’s mother.


    I was still imagining the scene of how Lucas called me mother in my mind. If the child really recognized


    me as his mother, I would definitely raise him up in the future.
