Cecilia's eyes were red. She took a deep breath before she continued, "You should also forget about it. Just pretend that it never happened, okay?"
Tobias felt like his heart was broke.
It broke into millions of pieces, and the pain penetrated through his bones.
It had never happened. How could he treat it as something that had never happened?
After all, he had made a huge mistake and would be doomed eternally.
However, he could not tell her.
The pain brought by this matter would bring someone down. He did not want Cecilia to bear the pain.
"Okay," he spat out these words through his stiff mouth.
Cecilia nodded and continued, "Tobias, don't be upset and neglect Natalie because of this matter. You must remember that she is pregnant with your child."
Boom!
There was a loud boom. A loud thunderclap suddenly echoed through the clear sky.
There was a flash of lightning in the dark night outside the window.
It illuminated the entire night sky in an instant like it was daytime.
A thunder echoed in his heart as well.
Natalie was still pregnant with his child.
The pain and regret during this period had almost made him forget this matter, or perhaps, he had deliberately chosen to avoid it.
However, Cecilia had reminded him now.
He was the father of Natalie's child.
How could this child come to this world?
This child was a product of incest, which violated human ethics.
Tobias' mind went blank for a moment.
In the end, he could barely hear what his mother said.
His mind was all about the child in Natalie's belly.
The child was the fruit of sin that had blossomed.
The flower of sin.
Tears started to roll down Cecilia's cheeks after Tobias left.
She suddenly thought of her daughter.
Over the years, she seemed to have forgotten about this matter.
However, only she knew.
Her daughter was deeply rooted in her heart.
With her flesh and blood.
However, she did not dare to think about it and she must not think about it.
Otherwise, how could she be worthy of her husband who loved her deeply? How could she be worthy as a mother to Tobias and Selina?
Cecilia could only stop herself from thinking.
However, she did not expect Tobias to find out about it.
This matter had not only affected his mood but also his relationship with Natalie.
She felt deep regret in her heart.
It was a mistake that she had made. However, she had not expected it to affect the next generation.
She could not sleep a wink that night.
She laid wide awake on the bed until dawn.
All she could think of was her daughter.
She only met her daughter once.
Her daughter was red with wrinkled skin when she was just born.
Cecilia gave her to the servant and her to give her to Madison.
In an ordinary district in Agaphen City.
A girl was complaining to her mother, "Mom, it's not easy to be a nurse. Recently, a difficult patient was admitted into the hospital. She would scold the nurses every day. She would yell at the nurses whenever she felt a little uncomfortable. It was so annoying."
"What's wrong? You can tell me."
"The patient was a middle-aged woman who was admitted into the hospital because she broke her head. She behaved atrociously in the ward every day and did not have any manners. Besides, her name was awful. I think her name was Madison Alexander."
The girl's mother was startled when she heard the name.
"Madison?" She looked blankly at the girl.
"Yes, Mom, do you know her?" the girl asked and looked at her mother curiously.
"Madison," the girl's mother repeatedly murmured the name.
