But before Harper could even respond, Stella's voice rang out, “I like it-I like all of it.
Evelyn had her back to the door.
At the sound of Stella's voice, her body visibly stiffened.
Just when Stella thought she would immediately turn around-and she herself was already bracing to run up and hug her- The warmth and enthusiasm she had anticipated. never came.
Evelyn didn't turn around; she stood there, rigid, her back to her. Stella's heart tightened all over again.

This time, Stella didn't hesitate. She walked up quickly and wrapped her arms around Evelyn from behind "Mom, I'm home." Her voice was soft-so soft it could break your heart.
At that, Evelyn finally turned around and pulled her into a tight embrace. "You little brat Only chwhen someone goes out to get you? Forgot the way on your own?" Her torie was full of scolding.

Hearing Evelyn's scolding, Stella nuzzled into her neck. "Don't be mad anymore, okay? I am wrong..." "Hmph, if you don't givea full explanation today, I'm absolutely not forgiving you Stella was stunned.
Evelyn continued, "And you-did you call someone else 'mom"?" The corner of Stella's mouth twitched; she went quiet.

Each tune, she'd stay ten, maybe fifteen minutes-like a candle being lit and then immediately snuffed out...
Susan's way of being a mother stood in stark contrast to Evelyn's From the very beginning. Stella hadn't accepted her in her heart. And later on, that was even less likely. Stella nuzzled into Evelyn's arms again. “I would never." Hearing that. Evelyn finally felt a little better.
She held Stella tightly, pleased. "Good, that's what I wanted to hear. Hmph.' Her tone was full of prideful affection.
If Stella had really called someone else “mom, Evelyn wouldn't have let it go. If she already called someone else mom, and the Reed family still treated her that way- Then Evelyn definitely wouldn't have let those people off the hook. She'd keep going after them.
Stella held Evelyn tightly. "Mom, I missed you so much." "If you missed me, why didn't you chome! You little brat..." When it cto the subject of coming home, Evelyn's tone suddenly turned heavy.

Abraham pulled Stella out of her arms. "Star's hungry." Stella was stunned.
The moment Evelyn heard that, she let out a surprised yelp: "Ah! So you do know what hunger feels like? I heard you haven't been eating well lately." As she spoke, Evelyn's gaze drifted downward and landed on Stella's still-flat belly.
At that moment, her eyes grew even more tender.
Even her smile softened with maternal warmth. "It's good your know when you're hungry. If you didn't, that'd really be miserable.” "Not just for you-what's inside your belly would suffer, too."
