The Two Have Reconciled After Queenie finished getting her wound looked at, she didn’t hesitate to call Cecilia over.

Cecilia approached her and took a seat. Feeling a tad awkward, she called out, “Mom.”

Queenie’s eyes curved gently with her smile, radiating warmth from their depths.

“Hello.” She slowly lifted her hand, intending to reach for Cecilia. However, worried about Cecilia potentially rejecting her, she left her hand hanging in mid-air. Upon seeing that, Cecilia leaned closer without any hesitation.

At this point, Queenie finally dared to touch Cecilia. She cautiously stroked the latter’s head, then gently embraced her.

“Ceci, my Ceci…” she chanted over and over, cradling the person in her arms as if Cecilia were a rare treasure.

Cecilia had never dared to imagine that she, too, would one day experience familial affection or receive such maternal love.
