Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce novel Chapter 727

Chapter 727: Chapter 727: Tool

She chose the second option.

He had agreed to let her raise Noah. He’d thought that since she’d given birth to the child—his older brother’s only bloodline—and since he believed Sunny Reed loved his brother, she would surely love this child.

But he never, ever imagined that the child would become a tool for her to manipulate people.

Walker Grant suddenly recalled that before Noah was even a year old, he would often run a fever and break out in rashes...

’Was he really sick back then?’

Now, hearing these things from Judith Pierce, even though he had seen the world’s coldness and humanity’s wickedness, he couldn’t stop a chill from running down his spine.

Judith Pierce seemed to realize this too. Her voice choked up. "It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t gone abroad, if I had taken the child in and cared for him myself, he wouldn’t have suffered so much."

She hated herself, filled with a regret that came too late.

But under the circumstances at the time—her most outstanding eldest son had been dead for a year, and she was mentally and emotionally exhausted—she just wanted to escape the pain as quickly as possible, so she chose to join Doctors Without Borders.

At the time, she had thought, ’Perhaps I can save many lives, and among them, the children and parents of other families.’

’If I can save one person, doesn’t that mean I’m saving a family?’

’Then maybe no one else will have to suffer the way we did?’

She had been immersed in her own grief, but she hadn’t cared for Julian Grant’s only child.

She was overcome with sorrow and self-blame.

The more Judith Pierce thought about it, the more miserable she felt. She covered her eyes, tears streaming through her fingers.

’If Julian Grant knew his own child had been abused like this by his biological mother, how much pain would he be in?’

Mother and son were both lost in their own emotions, silent for a long time.

Night deepened, and a faint gloom seemed to settle over everything, both inside and outside the villa.

When Chloe Reed came out of the old madam’s room, she saw Judith Pierce helping Walker Grant into the elevator.

She took the stairs up, and the elevator doors opened just as she arrived.
