Semua Bab Turning Heads After Divorce: Bab 111 - Bab 120

After Marisol's resistance proved futile, she was forcibly dragged to bed to sleep. Alinta clung to her like an octopus, giving her no opportunity to sneak out of bed to research materials or work.The next day, she dragged Marisol out shopping."Renewal Day is just around the corner. Since we're both free right now, let's treat this as recovery time and rest properly for a couple of days. If you stay cooped up at home working all the time, you'll go stir-crazy," Alinta spoke quite reasonably.Marisol leaned back in her chair in the cafe, drinking the hot milk that was all patients were allowed, feeling somewhat helpless."With my head like this, why can't I just stay home quietly? What's the point of going out?""Come on, it's not like I'm making you walk around a lot. Just changing the environment and getting some fresh air, so you don't turn into a hermit."Alinta said this, then couldn't help but sigh lightly. "If it weren't so cold, I'd take you straight up into the mountain

Marisol and Alinta had wandered around the mall for a while. Regardless of whether the items were valuable or not, they bought some food and entertainment items, and were starting to feel a bit tired.The two sat in a bookstore, drinking hot beverages, planning to rest before continuing their shopping spree. After resting for a while, Marisol recovered her energy and was about to get up when her phone on the table rang several times in succession.She picked it up and saw it was Lucian."Come out. Mom is sick, and it's because of you."Marisol frowned slightly. When Elizabeth had called earlier, Marisol hadn't detected anything wrong with her except that she seemed a bit down toward the end. Nonetheless, Lucian never spoke carelessly about Elizabeth's matters."I'm going out to take a call," she told Alinta before leaving the bookstore to call back.The other end picked up quickly. "I'm outside the mall. Come out now and go with me to the Muller family residence."Marisol disagr

Marisol leaned against the master bedroom door of the Muller family residence, with one hand lightly covering her eyes. After a long moment, she let out a heavy sigh and entered the room.The door closed behind her. She walked to the bedside and gazed at the woman curled up on the bed. Elizabeth's brow was furrowed, and her sleeping face was restless.After watching for a moment, Marisol crouched down and rested against the bed's edge. She slipped one hand under the covers to gently grasp the woman's hand.Though tucked warmly under the blanket, Elizabeth's palm was covered with a layer of cool sweat, and her hand was ice-cold. Marisol gripped it tightly while her other hand gently smoothed Elizabeth's furrowed brow.The next second, the person on the bed seemed to sense something and grasped her hand in return, her body also moving closer. Her brow also immediately relaxed.Feeling the unconscious affection from the person on the bed, Marisol's nose prickled with emotion, and her

Soon, Renewal Day Eve arrived.Originally, Marisol had wanted to invite Emilia to her Verdant Woods villa for Renewal Day, but the wound on her head was still healing. She had also been exhausted these past few days, leaving her without enough energy to prepare.So the night before Renewal Day Eve, she simply stayed over at Emilia's house, playing the role of a spoiled younger relative. Fortunately, this celebration would just be the two of them from the Speight family, so they didn't need to prepare anything too complicated. Even so, it would still be warm and cozy.On Renewal Day Eve, the two got up early. After cheerfully putting up couplets and eating breakfast, they both settled in the living room with the TV on, eating snacks and fruit they had prepared earlier while chatting about random things.They had a hotel chef come to prepare a table full of sumptuous dishes for the Renewal Day dinner. However, Emilia hadn't celebrated the holiday with family in a long time. She was i

Early on Renewal Day morning, Emilia took Marisol and Julius to St. Wisdom Cathedral to light candles and pray for blessings after exchanging holiday greetings and finishing breakfast.On the way, Marisol occasionally took out her phone to check. Besides holiday wishes from various friends, there were no other messages.She had gotten up early to not only offer holiday greetings to Emilia but also to video call Elizabeth's side to exchange greetings and check on her.However, Andre hadn't sent any messages. Perhaps he had stayed up late for the midnight celebration and wasn't awake yet?Well, she didn't mind. She hadn't held much hope anyway. Marisol turned off her phone screen and stopped checking.…The car drove into Long Mountain in the western suburbs. The three then got out of the car, walked through the misty, dark green mountain forest, passed through the stained glass archway at the entrance, and entered the cathedral.Yellow winter jasmine bloomed along the path.
