Joaquin looked at Aitana deeply and said with gratitude, “Aitana, thank you for forgiving my mother. I’ve already booked high-speed rail tickets for my parents. I’ll send them back to their hometown tomorrow.”
Aitana replied calmly, “That’s your family matter. I won’t interfere.”
Joaquin paused, then apologized to her once again. He tried to leave the gifts behind, but Aitana firmly refused. In the end, the family of three had no choice but to leave with everything they brought.
Joaquin knew it clearly—he was completely out of the running.
As they left the hospital, he remained silent.
His mother glanced at him from time to time, wanting to speak but not daring to say a word.
Only his father tried to comfort him. “Aitana is a magnanimous person. She accepted your mother’s apology and won’t pursue the matter. You don’t need to worry too much.”
