Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 Afraid Of Samuel

“Speaking of Desi, does she need to wait until she’s eighteen years old to receive treatment?” Samuel furrowed his brows.

“Yup. It just hit me that you must be really tired taking care of Desi, who’s always sick.”

Samuel swallowed hard without replying a word.

That was when Kelly came into the ward.

“How is it?” Kathleen looked in her direction.

Kelly sighed and complained, “I feel like I’ve explained everything clearly, but not really.”

“Is he coming over then?” Kathleen asked again.

Kelly merely responded with a nod.

“Talk to him again when you guys see each other.” Kathleen stood up. “Anything that you didn’t manage to tell him during the call just now, say it again when you two meet face to face. You can lock the door, lest he runs away when you’re talking halfway.”

Kelly seemed troubled.

“We’ll head off first.” Kathleen walked toward Samuel and pulled him out of the ward.

“I haven’t finished speaking earlier” Samuel stared intently at Kathleen.

“What is it?” Kathleen replied indifferently.

Thus, Samuel held her hand and confessed, “Kate, Eil and Desi are the best gifts you’ve ever given me. Despite Desi’s health condition, I’ve never felt exhausted taking care of her. Instead, I made it through the five years waiting for you because of them.”

Kathleen was taken aback.

Moments passed before she questioned gently, “Are they gifts?”

Samuel took Kathleen into his embrace, and she wrapped her arms around his waist.

For the first time after they had broken up, Kathleen responded to his gesture and hugged him back.

Samuel’s voice turned slightly hoarse. “Of course. They’re truly one-of-a-kind to me.”

“Samuel, in the future, we will have to face the same situation as what Leonard and Kelly are facing now. If—” Kathleen reminded, her voice trembling.

Before she could continue, Samuel assured her, “You don’t have to say anything. We’ll surely make it through. Desi too.” Samuel hugged her tighter.

“Okay.” She buried her face in Samuel’s arms. “Thank you.”

Samuel lowered his head to kiss her hair. “Let’s go!”

“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.

With that, they left the hospital.

Moments later, Leonard arrived at the hospital.

He went into the ward and saw Kelly wiping Felicia’s face with a towel.

Now that Felicia had recently regained consciousness, her complexion looked slightly better.

Most importantly, Felicia opened her eyes and greeted Leonard as “Daddy.”

That nearly melted Leonard’s heart then and there.

He could finally relate to how Samuel had been feeling.

It was true that children could heal one’s soul.

He went over and grabbed Kelly’s wrist. The next instant, he took the towel from her and said, “I’ll do it.”

“All right.” Kelly made way for him.

She rose to her feet and went to the door before locking it.

In the time that followed, Leonard wiped his daughter’s face attentively, so he did not notice Kelly’s move.

“Leonard, let’s talk.” Kelly mustered her courage.

“What’s it?” replied Leonard, nodding.

“Let’s talk about our current misunderstanding. Leonard… I-I’m fond of you. Even after so many years, I’m still into you all this while,” Kelly said calmly.

Leonard was shocked by the sudden revelation. His ears gradually turned red.

“It’s not that I’m against being intimate with you physically, but I feel that artificial insemination has a higher success rate. Of course, I know you care about my health. We can try to conceive naturally first. If things don’t work out, we’ll go for the artificial method. What do you think?” Kelly was in trepidation as she spoke.

“You’re… fond of me?” Leonard’s voice was raspy.

A flush of embarrassment rose to Kelly’s cheeks. “Yes.”
