Teresa said, “You should head back now. You still have a lot of things to do tomorrow.”

“No rush. I’ll leave after I get some sleep,” he said.

Teresa hesitated and asked awkwardly, “Do you want to book another room, or should I give you the bed?”

Jonathan pursed his lips briefly, his gaze shifting to the living room. “The couch will do.”

“No, you take the bed. I’ll sleep on the couch,” said Teresa.

Jonathan shook his head and insisted, “No need. Just give me a pillow. The couch is fine for me.”

Honestly, the bed was plenty big for two people, but neither of them could bring themselves to suggest sharing it. Teresa didn’t want to argue either, so she simply nodded in agreement.

Jonathan didn’t have much time left to rest. He showered and tidied himself up, and by then it was already past ten. He still had to be up at five the next

morning.

Teresa tossed and turned in the master bedroom for hours before finally drifting off to sleep in the early hours of the morning.

In a hazy half–sleep, she dreamed that Jonathan tucked her in and softly kissed her cheek. She told him it tickled, and he just laughed.

location.

Irene turned to Heidi and said, “The house should go to you. You and George can fix it up or rebuild it.”

Heidi hurriedly replied, “No, Irene. I can’t take it all for myself. Why don’t we sell it and split the money?”

Irene waved her hand and smiled. “Forget it. I’m not going to argue with you over something so small. It’s where Dad lived his whole life. Let it stay for

the sake of memory.”

Heidi finally nodded. “Alright, let’s each keep a key. If either of us gets homesick, we can come visit. We should also give Mom a key.”

Irene agreed, but she handed the main key to Heidi.

Heidi felt a mix of emotions. She remembered that when Yorick just passed away, Irene was struggling financially and often asked her for help. Now, thanks to Jonathan, Irene had become the wealthiest member of the family who wouldn’t care about a house.

After returning to Nareigh, Teresa went straight to Miriam’s house to pick up Michael.

“Mom, I missed you so much” Michael threw himself into Teresa’s arms.

Teresa frowned slightly, Michael was just three, yet she already felt too weak to hold him like she used to. Therefore, the set him down quickly
