Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 126

At that, Old Mrs. Lockwood froze, looking at her daughter-in-law. “Are you trying to trap me?”

Setting her up so she couldn’t send Natalie away.

When had she started taking that woman’s side?

“Mother, I would never dare. It’s just that, for all these years, no one has ever promised to help Terence walk again or Liana to speak. Since she has the audacity to make such a claim, let’s at least see if she has the skills to back it up.”

Old Mrs. Lockwood’s expression turned serious again. She had been too emotional today, laughing so many times.

Composing herself, she said sternly, “Fine. Let her stay here for now.”

After the matriarch left, Mrs. Lockwood said to Lucas and Liana, “Your Natalie told you to do your homework. You’d better get going, unless you want another scolding from her.”

“Grandma, I’ll take my sister to do our homework now. Goodbye, Grandma.”

Lucas and Liana politely bid their grandmother farewell.

Mrs. Lockwood turned to Terence. “Whether what she said is true or not, the change in Lucas is remarkable.”

“Yes. His moods are much more stable now.”

He had gone from a little terror to a much more obedient child.

Mrs. Lockwood suddenly smiled. “And here I thought you were going to be alone for the rest of your life. I never expected you to show interest in a woman.”

Terence fell silent. What did his mother take him for?

Seeing his icy glare, Mrs. Lockwood quickly corrected herself. “Of course, I don’t mean there’s anything wrong with you. It’s just that you’ve been hung up on your childhood friend for so long. If only she were still alive. You would have been childhood sweethearts, a perfect match. It’s a tragedy that you lost the use of your legs and still couldn’t save her. It pains me every time I think of it.”

A beautiful little girl had perished, and her son had lost his legs in the process.

“I failed to save her.”
