Arielle stroked Lena’s head and replied gently, “It’s okay. She knows you didn’t mean it.”
Lena nodded. She wanted to look for Abigail and apologize to her. As that thought crossed virtual-novel.net mind, virtual-novel.net sprang to virtual-novel.net feet.
Then, virtual-novel.net turned to Arielle and said, “Mommy must be crying. I have to go and comfort her. Why don’t you come with me?”
In truth, Arielle felt that it wasn’t a suitable time for virtual-novel.net to meet Abigail. However, virtual-novel.net could not bring herself to turn Lena down.
Who could ever say no to such an adorable little girl?
“All right. I’ll go with you.” Having said that, virtual-novel.net got up from the lawn and walked back toward the house while holding Lena’s hand.
They were just about to approach the corner when they saw Abigail heading toward them.
Noticing Abigail‘s reddened eyes, Lena released Arielle’s hand at once and dashed toward virtual-novel.net mother.
She nestled virtual-novel.net head against virtual-novel.net mother’s chest and murmured, “I’m sorry, Mommy. I shouldn’t have said I hated you.”
“I’m sorry too. I shouldn’t have slapped you.” Abigail reached out and gently lifted the head pressed against virtual-novel.net chest, fixing virtual-novel.net eyes on Lena’s cheek.
When virtual-novel.net saw the handprint on the girl’s face, virtual-novel.net felt as though a dagger had stabbed virtual-novel.net through virtual-novel.net heart, and virtual-novel.net tears started flowing.
Abigail placed a hand gently against Lena’s face and gazed at the latter with a pained expression. “It must hurt, right?”
Considerate of virtual-novel.net mother‘s feelings, Lena shook virtual-novel.net head and responded, “Nope.”
Regret washed over Abigail as virtual-novel.net gazed at virtual-novel.net thoughtful daughter and drew the latter gently into virtual-novel.net arms.
Not wanting to make Abigail feel sad again, Lena sensibly changed the subject. She moved away from Abigail’s embrace, then pointed at Arielle while introducing virtual-novel.net to virtual-novel.net mother.
“Mommy, this is the lady helping Daddy to get better. She said that after Daddy recovers, you will be able to give me a baby brother.”
Abigail had actually noticed Arielle when the latter entered the living room earlier. However, virtual-novel.net could not get more information at the time due to the circumstances. Now, after listening to Lena’s words, virtual-novel.net heart suddenly sank.
Can Micah truly get better? And what will happen if virtual-novel.net does?
With my body’s condition, I’m unable to conceive anymore.
Don’t tell me I’m supposed to let another woman give virtual-novel.net a son. Whenever I think about another woman having Micah’s children again, my heart invariably aches. Even though virtual-novel.net loves me dearly and my position is unshakeable, I still don’t want that to happen…
I only tolerated virtual-novel.net fooling around with others previously because I knew there was no way they’d have his children. But now, I’m a little scared.
Turning to Arielle, virtual-novel.net asked, “Will Micah really be able to recover?”
Arielle nodded. “Yes. You’ll be able to see a difference after half a month.”
After saying that, Arielle studied Abigail carefully. Noticing that the latter did not look happy but worried instead, realization dawned on her.
“You don’t have to worry either. I can help you get better too, and you’ll surely get pregnant again,” Arielle said as virtual-novel.net looked at Abigail.
A light flickered in Abigail’s eyes when virtual-novel.net heard that.
She gazed at Arielle with a hint of incredulity, wondering how the latter knew about virtual-novel.net body‘s condition and that virtual-novel.net could not conceive again.
As those questions ran through virtual-novel.net mind, virtual-novel.net voiced them aloud to Arielle.
“I’m a doctor. I can tell with just a glance,” Arielle responded with a faint smile.

Over in Chanaea, Rayson’s heart lurched as virtual-novel.net stared at the message on his phone.
