Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1389

Angeline said emotionally, "We’re here for you, Sis Shirley. We’ll be your strongest backing."

Shirley squeezed Angeline's hand and said, "I’m really grateful to have you by my side, Sis. You’re just like a tree, and I'm like a bird perching on your trunk. You make me feel safe and secure.

"You, however, are always thinking only of us, silly. Has it never crossed your mind that with my current health condition, this child will become a burden to you if I die one day?

"As for me, I don’t want to see you going against Doomsday because of this child. I don’t want to see the peaceful life that you have strived so hard to get plunge into yet another bloody war. Therefore, if he wishes to, then I will give the child to him."

Angeline was struck dumb.

How cruel was it to separate a mother and her child?

Angeline did not want Sis Shirley to experience the same tragedy she experienced, hence after contemplating for a very long time, Angeline suddenly asked Sis Shirley in a solemn tone, "Are you willing to accept him, Sis Shirley?”

A touch of melancholy emerged on Shirley's face. "A

man like him has high aspirations and comes from a well-off family. I've always looked up to him but have never dared to be too hopeful about being with him."

Angeline said, "Sis Shirley, he's very knowledgeable and affectionate. He'll make a great partner, I must say. If the two of you can be together, then your child will grow up in a warm home. Would you like to be brave for once and give it a try for the sake of you and your child?"

Shirley was in a daze.

She recalled her first meeting with Cole. At the time, she was carrying the unconscious Angeline on her back, staggering and stumbling countless times along the way. In the end, she fell into a quagmire but could not climb out of it no matter how hard she tried.

She was very scared at the time, afraid that Angeline would be hurt because of her incompetence.

Fortunately, Cole appeared. Like a streak of light, he picked Angeline up from her back. He had a crush on Angeline, so it was only natural that he would help her, but what she did not expect was that he also reached out to her and pulled her out of the quagmire.

Cole was probably unaware that his kind gesture had given Shirley hope when she was in despair at the time, and his shadows were etched in Shirley's heart ever since.
