Hearing Claire's words made my chest want to burst with emotions.
Vien had been waiting for me!
Once Ace returns we would be one big happy family again!
The thought brought a tear in my eyes and a smile on my lips.
I lifted my fingers and caressed Vien's rosy cheeks. She would be a wonderful sister to Faith.
My eyes turned to Claire who stood a few steps away from the bed. She was looking intently at Vien with longing in her eyes.
She was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice I was watching her closely.
Claire must have been thinking about her son. She hadn't held him for so long. Ace was around ten years old when she left him because of his abusive father. Until now, Claire couldn't even touch her own son. The situation is difficult for her.
