chapter 1617
It was South City, on the other hand, that made Jane feel at home.
Jane thought of Aino, who ran in circles with her short legs, gifted her a monstrous doll, and wished for Jane to quickly give birth to a little baby, she thought of Sabrina who had not had much interaction with Jane but had always been thinking of helping her at every turn. Also, she thought of the way Ruth acted yesterday. That firecracker-like shrewish manner that had a tinge of innocent personality was very comical, and that comedic young lady was sitting next to Jane at that moment. Jane had a rare joyful smile on her face.
Seeing Jane so happy, Ryan could not help but ask, “Aunt Jane, you’re already about six months pregnant. Have you checked if it was a boy or a girl?”
Jane shook her head. “I haven’t checked.”
“Do you want a boy or a girl?” Ryan asked again. He was trying to make conversation.
Jane replied without any hesitation, “A boy.”
Ryan thought what Jane meant was that it would be much easier for the Poole family to accept if her child was a boy, so he said, “Aunt Jane, it’s fine. The Poole family doesn’t favor any particular gender. I, on the other hand, want my little cousin to be a girl, haha.”
Jane looked into the distance with a spaced- out gaze. “I just don’t want to have a girl. What if she has the same fate as I did, how miserable would she be?”
Ryan was speechless. At that moment, Alex, who had gone to take some water, walked over. He handed the warm water to Jane, and then wrapped his arm around her. “The nightmares are over. Everything will be better.”
Jane nodded gently. “Mm-hmm.”
The duration of the flight was three hours, and they arrived in South city at one o’clock in the afternoon. As soon as they walked out of the arrival hall of the airport, Jane saw Sabrina, whom she had not met for five months.
“Jane! Jane!” Sabrina was tipping on her toes and waving at Jane with all her might.
Jane instantly burst into tears. There was not a single bit of doubt that Sabrina was certainly the person Jane missed the most after leaving Alex. In the past few months when Jane was on the run, she had only contacted Sabrina from time to time. After not seeing her for more than four months, Sabrina got even thinner than four months ago, and her complexion was a little dull. It was as if she was malnourished. Also, Sabrina has some little freckles on her face. She did not wear any makeup and just presented herself in a very natural manner. However, Sabrina made Jane feel an incomparable strength.
Jane took a closer look at Sabrina and saw that her belly was also slightly bulging. There was also a little child standing next to her. Jane had not met the little child for five months, and she had grown much taller.
“Aunt Jane, Aunt Jane...I miss you so much. Aunt Jane, I have given you a monstrous doll as a gift before you left. Did you stuff that doll into your belly, which is why your belly is bulging now?”
Little children like Aino, who was more than six years old, had a really rich imagination. As soon as she said that, everyone around her immediately laughed. Jane was also amused by Aino and laughed.
In fact, Jane had been worried that she might be having a daughter. She was worried that her daughter would be fated to suffer the same mishaps as herself in the future. However, when she saw Aino, Jane forgot about all her misery and sadness. Aino was a little child who was particularly good at bringing comfort to others.
Jane squatted with great effort in front of Aino. She then took Aino in her arms. “Aino, I have missed you very much. I heard that you even fought for me and helped me drive a bad woman away during the time I was not around, right?”
