Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 1171

He deliberately left them some space.

"Thank you." Gale said.

Aurum looked at her, "You don't need to thank me. And... Jennie, wouldn't thank me either."

He was trying to imply that no matter who she was or what her status had become, there was no need to be so formal with each other.

Gale didn't dare to look at him, and lowered her head slightly.

Aurum brushed past her and exited.

He spent the whole night in the hospital, feeling a little haggard, and the stubble on his chin had grown.

The door closed softly.

Gale's feet suddenly felt heavy; she couldn't take it upon herself to go to the bed.

Mary didn't call her either.

It was so silent until the sound of another patient sobbing could be heard in the ward.

"Mrs. Yarn," Gale walked over slowly, "I brought you a bouquet of flowers."

She was at a loss, not knowing how to face her... biological mother.

"If you address me as Mrs. Yarn, then... Should I call you Mrs. Wood? "Mrs. Yarn wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes, "Have a seat."

How strange were they. The biological mother and daughter are calling each other so formally!

Gale put the bouquet on the cabinet, arranged it neatly, and then sat down.

Mary observed her every action, her eyes were full of love and guilt.

"Actually, I woke up shortly after arriving at the hospital last night." Mrs. Yarn said, "I couldn't sleep. As soon as I closed my eyes, what flashed through my mind was all the experiences you have had over the years."

"I've been living... well... They've treated me like their own, and they haven't done me any wrong."

Mrs. Yarn nodded, "When you were in the Warm family, although you didn't say how rich you were, you had no worries about food and clothing. It was a well-off family, and Wendy was an intellectual. What I regret the most is after you married into the Wood family..."

Everything took a turn for the worse and everything started to change.

It only takes a moment to go from Heaven to Hell.

"If I knew you were Jennie at that time, I would have risked my whole life to save you from Shawn and prevent him from sending you to a psychiatric hospital!"

The death of Alex Wood caused quite a stir in Sea City.

Everyone also heard about the cause of death.

Therefore, when Shawn took action against the Warm family, no one pleaded for mercy, let alone helped.

Everyone pretended that it was nothing to do with themselves.

They knew... They knew that the Warm family deserved what they deserved, and the court has issued a verdict.

The Yarn family knew it too, but all they could do was follow through.

Gale replied bitterly, "Mary, there is no such thing as what ifs in this world."

"You've endured so much suffering... I've been praying everyday and donated to many charities. I have been kind to Natalie. I only hoped that my good-will will reach you one day. I did not think..."

Mary's tears fell again.

"I know, you said that all you did was to hope that after I disappeared, I could meet a good family and live a normal life." Gale said, "Being in the Warm family allowed me to have a good and happy life. It's just that I met an unkind person and that marriage was unlucky."

Gale in turn comforted Mrs. Yarn.

"You need to go for a paternity test, okay?" Mrs. Yarn looked at her with tears in her eyes, asking for her permission.

Afraid that she might misunderstand, Mrs. Yarn hurriedly said, "I don't mean any harm, I've already confirmed that you are Jennie. It's just that sufficient medical evidence is needed to prove it to the others. After all, your father doesn't know about it yet."

Gale slowly raised his head, and finally met Mrs. Yarn's gaze.

She asked, "Do you really want me to come back?"

"Of course." Mrs. Yarn couldn't even control her tears, she held Gale's hand tightly, "My biggest wish is for you to come back... Jennie, you are my baby!"

"Then, if I come back, where will Natalie go?"

Mary was startled.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Gale asked again, "She's done outrageous things, will the Yarn family still protect her? Will you still recognize her as an adopted daughter? Will you abandon her and disregard her life even after all those years?"
