After returning home, Sharon went to the kitchen to tell the chef what dishes to cook for tonight. She also told him to cook some additional dishes and send them to Fern and Rue at the hospital. Since her son was back for the new year, she would be personally cooking some dishes. Simon went to the kitchen to take a look since she had been in the kitchen for a long time. She had an apron wrapped around her waist and her sleeves were pulled up. She was cooking in a skilled manner. He smiled and walked over. He then wrapped his arms around her from behind. “You haven’t cooked in a long time. Why are you in the mood to cook today?” “I want to make some dishes for Sebastian. He won’t be able to have dishes prepared by his mother when he returns to the special training camp.” It turned out the dishes were for Sebastian. Although she was right, Simon still felt slightly disgruntled by how she was treating Sebastian so well. “If that’s the case, you need to prepare two dis
If Quincy regained her memories one day, how would she face her child? “Sharon, are you still there?” Quincy asked when she did not hear her reply. Sharon immediately returned to her senses. “Yes, I’m here…” “You must come to visit me. You’re my only friend now.” Quincy usually felt rather lonely, especially when Dayton was not home. The worse thing was she could not remember anything from the past, so she did not know what other friends she had. Sharon was the only one who had come to visit her, so she was the only friend she remembered. “Sure, I’ll definitely come visit you.” In a situation like this, Sharon reckoned that she had to visit Quincy. She had to ask Dayton what else he intended to do. He was hurting Quincy by doing this. Of course, she could not tell Quincy about any of this—especially now that she was pregnant. Simon came back when Sharon finished talking on the phone. “The dishes are ready,” he announced as he held up two insulated containers in h
Fern’s eyes moistened when she heard what Rue told Eugene. Her heart gradually sunk. “Come over. Let’s eat,” she told Rue after recollecting her emotions. Rue told Eugene, “I’ll eat with Mommy first. I’ll read you a storybook after eating.” Just as Fern was preparing to eat with Rue, someone knocked on the door. “Who is it?” She found it odd. Everyone should be with their families for dinner now. Who else would come over? “Fern, it’s me.” It was Wyatt’s voice. “Mommy, I’ll open the door.” Rue ran out to open the door for him right away. After a while, Rue and Wyatt came in together. “Why are you here? Do you want to have a meal with us?” Fern saw that he was carrying an insulated container in his hands. Wyatt smiled and said, “I’ll go home to have dinner with my parents later. Here are some dishes that my mother prepared. It’s New Year’s Eve today. I wanted to bring some home-cooked dishes over for you guys.” He then noticed the wide variety of dishes on t
“Oh, it seems like you already have plenty of dishes?” Fiona was pretty taken aback. “Yes, Aunt Sharon and Uncle Wyatt sent these dishes over. Mommy and I won’t be able to finish the dishes Great-grandfather sent over, so you’d better bring them back.” Rue did not want to accept anything from the old master. Fern could not help but feel surprised. Although it was true that the old master had not tried to kick her out of the ward after the incident that day. He had also silently allowed her to continue looking after Eugene. However, he had not come to visit Eugene again after that. He did not bother to ask about Fern and Rue as well. Why was suddenly being so nice to them? They did not dare to accept his sudden act of kindness. “Yes, Fiona. You’d better bring these dishes back. Help me thank the old master. It’s just that we can’t finish so many dishes.” Fern rejected her offer as well. “This…” Fiona had tried very hard to persuade the old master to send them some dishes
Fern’s heart suddenly lurched as she lowered her head to look at Eugene. His eyes were still closed. His hand was not moving as well. She looked at him for a few minutes. Her clenched heart finally relaxed when she made sure that he was not moving at all. The next second, she was filled with great disappointment. It had been her own misconception. She thought that he had reacted to her. She thought that he had woken up... She wanted him to wake up so badly... She lowered her eyes as tears flowed down her face uncontrollably. The fireworks were still being set off outside the house. A new year was about to arrive. He had been asleep for the whole year. He still did not show signs of waking up till today. She could barely endure it when it had only been a year. She still had to wait many years in the future... Thud, thud. Her tears fell on the back of Eugene's hand repeatedly, making his hand wet. She lowered her head and bit her lip. She did not dare to cry out lo
He held her hand and asked, “Do you want to get back together with me?” Fern looked at him in shock. He had just woken up. Why was he talking about this now? He then said, “I’ve gotten a divorce. I have the right to discuss getting back together with you now.” It seemed like he remembered everything. Did he hear everything that they had told him when he was unconscious? Had he just been unable to open his eyes? “I should call a doctor over so they can have a look at your condition.” She was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly remembered something. “Right, it’s New Year’s Eve today. There won’t be doctors around.” He pulled her back and said, “You don’t need to call a doctor. I’m feeling fine. Everything is alright.” “Really?” She looked at him worriedly. He tugged her forcefully and pulled her in front of him. “I’ve woken up. You don’t need to worry or look after me anymore. In the future… I’ll look after you.” She met her gaze. Her heartbeat then st
Fern never thought that the old master would not be against Eugene’s decision to marry her. Had the old master finally realized her genuine feelings for Eugene? After all, she had been staying by his side to look after him in the past year. Perhaps he just did not want to trigger Eugene’s emotions? He had just woken up, so his vitals were still unstable. “That’s great, Daddy. You can hold a wedding ceremony with Mommy after you recover. I want to be your flower girl during the ceremony.” Rue was overjoyed. “Sure, I’ll let you be our flower girl during the ceremony.” Eugene caressed her head. Fern looked at them and said, “I haven’t agreed to marry you.” Her words caused the smiles on Eugene and Rue’s faces to vanish. They both looked at her. Before Eugene could say anything, Rue asked in an urgent tone, “Mommy, don’t you want to marry Daddy? Don’t you want to get back together with him? When Daddy was unconscious, you said that you’d agree to get back together wi
They had tried to hold a wedding ceremony more than once, but they had never been able to go through with it.“It’s alright for us. Our children have already grown up anyway,” Sharon said with a shrug. “Since that’s the case, Bonnie should be our flower girl during the wedding as well.” Sharon rejected his offer. “Rue is enough. Bonnie is still too small. She can’t be a flower girl.” Eugene huffed coldly. Bonnie was not that young. Sharon just could not bear to let her be a flower girl. Old Master Newton remained silent as he listened to their conversation. He then said, “Move back into the Newton household after you get discharged from the hospital.” Eugene thought about it for a while before saying, “Sure, I’ll move back in with Fern and Rue.” The old master frowned. Was he trying to test his limits? He glanced at Fern. Although he still found it hard to accept her, he had no choice since Eugene liked her. “You should stay outside, then.” He did not object to
