If Alex is healthy, I will choose him without hesitation, even if the age gap is like a gulf, but he is destined to leave first... (Uncle Tie once again made me feel family-style love, which is still different from Lolita ) Liv Tyler is too beautiful to describe in words. The curly-haired brother is lucky, and finally got Lucy at the end. All the jealousy and waiting in front of him have not been in vain. Such a romantic journey to find his father, and finally love has a destination.
