After her daughter boarded the plane, Lauryn kept watching the plane until it disappeared high into the sky.
She left with tears in her eyes, reluctant to part.
After Briela went abroad, Lauryn came to my house less frequently.
But Bryan went out more and more frequently.
Every time I came back, I felt like I was hollowed out.
Whenever I asked him, he would either say he was going to a gathering with his buddies.
Or maybe he signed up for a fitness class to maintain his figure.
When he could not find an excuse, he would pretend to be sad and sigh.
"I raised Briela alone and she has never left me. I couldn't help but miss her after being abroad for such a long time."
"If I don't find something to do, I'll fall apart."
I ignored the scent of Lauryn's freesia perfume and pretended to comfort him.
"Briela will be back soon and then our family can be reunited again."
Bryan smiled faintly and said meaningfully, "Yes, soon our family of three will be reunited."
Three years later, Briela returned from studying abroad.
Lauryn whom I had not seen for a long time came to my house early in the morning, just like she used to and accompanied Bryan and me to pick Briela up at the airport.
The moment she saw her daughter, Lauryn could not control her emotions. She rushed forward and hugged her daughter tightly in her arms with tears in her eyes.
After the two of them expressed their longing for each other, Briela walked straight towards me and said straight to the point, "Mom, I'm back."
"When will you let me take care of your company?"
Looking at her impatient expression, I gave a faint smile.
"Let's go, I've already held a press conference."
"Right now, I will entrust everything to you in front of everyone."
The press conference venue was overcrowded.
All the media reporters and celebrity businessmen gathered here.
Just to see the change of ownership of the business giant Renner Group.
With all eyes on me, I announced that my daughter would take over my position as president of Renner Group.
And under the witness of lawyers and interview cameras, the equity transfer agreement was signed.
I transferred all of my assets and company shares to my daughter's name.
For a moment, applause was thunderous and emotions were boiling among the crowd.
Many people were lamenting the deep love between us mother and daughter.
The look they gave my daughter was full of envy.
