Desmond Tan did a good deed on Mother's Day 

 

According to Desmond, he had just finished dinner with his team at Clarke Quay when a "mother and her young daughter came up to [him] with a basket of roses and asked [him] to buy a rose."

That was when he learnt that the mother is raising four kids and would only return home with her daughter when they're done selling the roses.

"I was so moved by the mother's love as well as this little girl's obedience to accompany her mum to sell roses to support the family at such late hours," wrote the actor.

Des and his team then bought up all their flowers.

"I just gotta do the right thing! My team and I decided to clear the basket and let this family head home to rest early and enjoy a good Mother's Day weekend."
