In that moment when she turned around, from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the earrings she wore in the mirror. Reaching up to touch them, she hesitated for a few seconds.
Aside from a bit of money for the taxi, she hadn't brought anything with her. Nor did she want to.
Since her heart had decided to leave as well, nothing else mattered.
But these earrings...
They were the only thing he had ever given her, the only thing he had personally put on her.
Between them, it had happened only once in their lifetimes.
Manman stared at herself in the mirror for a long time. Finally, she lowered her hand, deciding not to take them off.
The past ten years had been far too long, far too profound. Let this be... a final token of her love.
Otherwise, the memories would be unbearably cruel.
Manman opened the door. The secret guard who had been standing outside turned to look at her, "Mrs. Muo."
