“Are you sure? Madam Garver.” With Jenna’s affirmation, Madam Lilian was extremely happy. She looked at Sara, who was lying on the bed with a hopeful look in her eyes, and asked eagerly.
Sara was in a daze for a moment, staring blankly at Madam Lilian. Her intuition was very strange, and she didn’t know how to answer at the moment.
However, when Madam Lilian looked at her, her eyes were bright and full of anticipation. If she didn’t answer the question, then it would be too cruel and impolite. After a while, she nodded and smiled. “Madam, I think your daughter will accept you. As long as you are sincere enough, she has no reason to abandon her own mother.”
Madam Lilian’s eyes brightened when she heard that. The expression on her face was clear as she said, “Of course I’m sincere. I dreamt of taking my daughter back and spending the rest of my life with her. If she is willing to have me in and not hate me, then I’ll smile even in my dreams.”
When Madam Lilian heard Sara’s answer, she seemed to be in very good spirits. She looked very relieved, and her face also showed a trace of happiness.
Sara and Jenna didn’t understand the true meaning behind Madam Lilian’s words. Perhaps, they didn’t dare to think about it, or maybe all of this was impossible. According to their speculations, they would never guess who they actually were. Therefore, as Madam Lilian was happy for them, they were also happy for her, an old lady. That was all there was to it.
While they were talking and joking, the phone rang.
“Jenna, Grandma’s memorial service is at ten o’clock. I’ll send someone to pick you up.” Hansen’s call came through. Although his voice was a little tired, he sounded fine.
Jenna certainly remembered this matter and agreed immediately.
At that time, Madam Lilian took Sara’s hand and said very seriously, “My child, treat your illness well. When you get better, if you have any wishes, as long as they are within my ability, then I will fulfil them and never break my promise.”
Sara was stunned. Madam Lilian was too good to be like this. She really didn’t need to be so nice to her. She was just about to refuse when she saw Madam Lilian’s face sink. She quickly said, “Please don’t refuse me, or I’ll be sad.”
Sara’s eyes suddenly warmed up, and she couldn’t say anything to refuse her.
Madam Lilian took her hand and asked her about her health. The two of them soon began chatting well.
Jenna thought of Norton in the ward. He was Vivian’s blood grandson. She wondered how his injuries were and if he would be able to attend the memorial service. With this in mind, she took her leave and left.
“Come on, Norton, have this.” As soon as Jenna entered the ward, she saw Sabrina feeding Norton a bowl of nutritious porridge.
“I don’t need to eat.” Norton was behaving like a spoiled child. He deliberately turned his face away and said, “I’m not eating it.”
“No, you must.” Sabrina put the spoon of porridge to his lips and coaxed him softly.
Norton’s face was full of happiness. Yet, he was purposely pretending to be pitiful. That time around, Sabrina displayed fondness from the bottom of her heart and such tender love made Norton forget about the injuries on his body. His entire being seemed to be radiant and energetic.
Jenna initially thought that Norton wasn’t injured at all and was just acting.
“Come, there’s still one more spoon. Open your mouth.” Sabrina was about to put the last mouthful of porridge to Norton’s lips. Obviously, he could open his mouth and eat it, but he waited for Sabrina to beg him gently before opening his mouth.
When Sabrina saw that he had finished the porridge, she was very happy and praised him. “That’s a good boy, excellent.”
As she spoke, she took out a tissue and began to wipe his mouth carefully.
Norton took the opportunity to hold her hand and grind against it repeatedly. Sabrina did not object at all, allowing him to do whatever he wanted. Her face was full of affection.
The two of them were talking to each other, and their affection for each other was strong. Even when Jenna came in, they were indulged in their little world and completely ignored Jenna’s existence.
At that moment, Norton became the happiest man in the world!
Jenna had entered the ward for a long time, but both of them were still enjoying each other’s company and did not see her at all. In desperation, she was about to leave when she heard footsteps. Jenna turned back and saw General Delia striding in.
Seeing Jenna, General Delia nodded to her, and then his eyes fell on the happy couple who were immersed in their affection wholeheartedly. There were complications in his eyes, but the expression on his face was obviously much softer than before when he saw them.
Norton had personally blocked the bullet for his daughter. This allowed General Delia to see his sincerity that he had turned over a new leaf.
Only a man with sincere feelings would use his own body to save a woman’s life.
This left a deep impression on General Delia.
Especially after Sergio’s death, and knowing what they had done, he then turned a blind eye to Norton and Sabrina’s flirtations. That day, he came to visit and thank Norton, who was heavily injured, in order to save his daughter. However, when he entered the ward and saw how close they were to each other, his heart felt indescribably complicated.
“Ahem.” General Delia strode in. The couple did not notice him and even ignored him, which made him feel very uneasy. He was not here to peek at his daughter’s love relationship. So, he coughed.
General Delia’s heavy cough completely jolted Sabrina and Norton. They turned around at the same time, only to see Jenna standing in the room and looking at them with a faint smile on her face, while General Delia stood there with a dignified face. The expression on his face was complex and unpredictable.
“Dad, Jenna, when did you guys come in?” Sabrina’s face and ears suddenly blushed. She immediately bounced to her feet and asked with embarrassment.
“Nice to meet you, sir, and Jenna as well.” Perhaps, it was due to his severe injuries, as his face was a little too pale even with the tint of flushness from the flirting, and his voice was weak.
Hearing his frail voice, General Delia’s face lit up and his gaze softened.
Sabrina stood timidly, looking at General Delia uneasily from time to time.
He gave her a dignified look and instructed her in a serious tone, “Sabrina, follow Jenna out. Vivian’s memorial service is about to begin. Wait for me downstairs.”
“I…” Sabrina stood still, as if she was worried about Norton.
