Chapter 940
Madeline parted her pretty pale lips and smiled slightly. “As long as it’s a child with Jeremy, I don’t mind having a boy or a girl.”
Eloise was initially very happy, but when she heard her answer, her eyes got wet again.
She squeezed Madeline’s hand and said, “Back then, you held this same belief and risked your life to give birth to his child too, didn’t you?”
Madeline smiled without denying it.
Back then…
Back then, she loved Jeremy so badly that she would not mind if it meant dying for him.
She did not think there was anything different now too.
She still loved him a lot.
“It’s a boy,” Eloise told her as she teared up and laughed. “An ugly boy.”
Madeline smiled as well. “When he grows up, he’ll be handsome. I bet Jack was ugly when he was born too,” she said , suddenly turning silent.
She had never seen how Jackson looked like when he was born…
Madeline spent more than half a month in the hospital to recuperate from her injuries and for her postpartum confinement.
Although they found a caregiver, Eloise and Sean took turns taking care of her every day, sometimes bringing Jackson and Lillian along with them.
That day, Eloise and Madeline had just finished watching the child in the incubator together and were heading back to the ward when they passed through the corridor and unexpectedly saw Karen walking out of Madeline’s ward. She looked cautious and had a bag with her. After she came out, she turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Madeline did not understand why she was there, and Eloise called out to her, “Karen? Did you just come out of the ward? What did you secretly do in my daughter’s ward?”
Karen, who was called out, hid the bag in her hand behind her with a guilty conscience.
“I’m just passing by. I just went in to have a look,” she replied indifferently.
She was just too easily provoked.
All the misunderstandings and distance between them were caused by outsiders’ instigation.
One month later, Madeline reached the end of her postpartum confinement and her body was fully recovered. However, she was still worried about her son who was still in the incubator.
On the other hand, she was even more worried about Jeremy.
He seemed to have been brainwashed by Lana. Not only had he completely forgotten her, but he was even being used by Lana to do her illegal business biddings.
After she got better, Madeline told Sean and Eloise that it was okay for them to go back after dinner. She stood outside the nursery and looked at the little baby through the glass window.
‘Baby, promise me that you’ll be healthy.’
Madeline raised her hand and gently placed it on the glass window. When she was staring at the baby, a handsome figure was suddenly reflected on the glass window.
She was stunned for a moment. When Madeline saw the figure approaching from behind, she turned around swiftly.
