Cora pursed her lips and glanced at Martin, who was busy drawing on the side.

Byron could tell from her expression that she was reluctant to answer the question.
However, considering Martin’s treatment, she eventually gave in.
Her voice was noticeably hoarse as she replied, “Yes, Martin is
growing up in a single–parent family.”
“Where is his father?” Johnson inquired further.
“His father and I separated before he was born due to a
misunderstanding…”
Given the follow–up treatment for Martin, Cora’s response was comprehensive, as she revealed the
story of how she angrily told her ex–husband that she had the child aborted.
She also spoke about her initial thought of committing suicide after hearing news of her ex–husband’s
death.
“But I couldn’t bear to do it, especially knowing how much he

had anticipated Martin’s birth. So I went to Leucrest Town

alone and gave birth to Martin there.

“After delivering Martin, I worked at a local medicine clinic to
earn a living for us.
“Martin was more obedient than normal children, rarely
crying or being unreasonable. I felt lucky about it at first, but as he grew up and couldn’t speak, I
became worried.
“I couldn’t stand hearing people call Martin a mute. It hurt me deeply. They even used his inability to
speak as an excuse to reject him from attending kindergarten…”
As Cora described the difficult years she spent raising Martin alone and people’s ridicule of Martin, she
cried, almost losing
control of her emotions.
Byron felt as if his eyes were burning.
He had never imagined that she had endured such hardships in the past four years.
If she hadn’t mentioned it herself, he wouldn’t have believed that this gentle and delicate woman had
single–handedly raised Martin and grown stronger, facing the maliciousness of
those around her.
The images formed in his mind from Cora’s descriptions felt

like sharp blades piercing his heart…
Leaning against the mirror, he was filled with regret and
affection for this woman.

When Cora finished her account, Johnson asked, “As you
mentioned before, your ex–husband is still alive. Do you have any intention of reuniting with him and
living together with
Martin?”
Johnson could sense the person behind the mirror was
anxiously waiting for an answer.
And indeed, Byron desperately wanted to know the answer to this question.
Cora wiped away her tears and looked at Johnson.
But her answer was unexpected. Both Byron and Johnson
were taken aback. “I have no such intention at all.”
Johnson quickly glanced in the direction of the mirror and

“He is getting married to someone else,” Cora said.
Hearing her reason, Byron was ready to push the door open and explain to her.

But before he could act, Cora added, “More importantly, I
have decided to let go.”

Byron saw the look on Cora’s face, the one without any trace
of love, the same one when she begged to see Johnson.
He realized it must have been his lack of a clear refusal to
Nora’s arrangement at Nora’s celebration party that deeply
hurt her.
Therefore, Cora made up her mind not to love him anymore.
Yet, despite the deep misunderstandings they once had, Byron hadn’t been able to let her go.
Now that all the misunderstandings were cleared, and
he knew she had given birth to Martin and raised him so diligently, he was even more certain that he
couldn’t let her
