In the intervening years, they hadn't seen each other, and yet Ellie Wilton seemed to have always been waiting for him. When he arrived, she would follow him, no matter where he placed her.
However, he never knew that Ellie had prepared a huge surprise for him. But suddenly, the surprise ceased to exist, and then Ellie took the initiative to have him send her abroad, not wanting to stay in the nation.
Because being home made her too sad, staying here would only remind her of her prematurely deceased son. She believed that with time, Marcus Parker would definitely find out.
At that time, everyone thought that Mrs. Parker didn't like Ellie, the mistress, and forced Marcus to send Ellie away. In reality, it was Ellie who voluntarily chose to go abroad, and Marcus was the one who couldn't bear it.
She didn't know how long it would take to heal this pain. All she knew was that, even if it took her entire life, she would owe her son and feel guilty towards him.
