Chapter 1034
Jeremy did not give Karen the chance to ask questions, however. He got up and left.
In order not to disturb Madeline, Karen did not call out to Jeremy again.
Seeing Jeremy enter Jackson and Lillian’s room, she did not follow him in so as to not bother them.
Jeremy hugged the two little babies who were asleep. Looking at the two calm faces, his heart was filled with resentment and guilt.
He set his eyes on Lillian’s sleeping face, his deep eyes gentle and watery.
“Lillian, I’ll never have the chance to hear you call me ‘Daddy’ anymore, but you’re the only little princess in my heart.”
He bowed his head and wanted to kiss her cute little cheek, but thinking of the blood he had just coughed up, he felt that he was not even qualified to hold the child.
Jeremy left sadly, looking at Madeline’s door quietly for a long time before he was ready to leave. When he turned around, however, he saw Jackson standing in front of him. Those clear and simple eyes were looking at him very seriously.
“Daddy, you haven’t been home for a long time.” The little guy’s eyes were a little lonely.
Jeremy walked to the child and crouched down to touch his cute little head. “Jack, listen to your mother in the future.”
“I’ve always listened to Mommy.”
“Jack is a man now. You have to help me protect your mother and sister.”
Jackson blinked his eyes. “What about Daddy?”
“Daddy… Daddy is going to a place far, far away,” Jeremy said, holding the little boy to his chest tightly. “Jack, do you love Daddy?”
