"The person Kris worries about the most is you. I promised him that I would take good care of you. If anything happens to you, he'll be angry when he comes back. You can't put me in that position!"
Vera smiled faintly at her.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine. You should go to rest early too!"
Bailey Hansen stroked her hair and comforted her with a few more words, then left her room.
Vera turned, moved closer to the bedside lamp, and unfolded the note in her hand.
The familiar handwriting on the note was confident and bold.
"Don't worry about me; take care of yourself. Only then can I be at ease. Go to bed after reading this note, or I'll punish you when I return. Quickly!"
Just a few simple words, but the care in them was palpable.
Her finger gently traced the words. Vera folded the note again, placed it in the drawer by the window, then quickly changed into her pajamas and lay down on her pillow.
Although she wasn't sleepy, she closed her eyes and tried her best to relax.
