Liam let go of her hand and looked at her for a long time. When she couldn’t stay in a stalemate any longer and wanted to leave, he told her seriously and in a firm tone, “I want to marry you because I like you. Besides, I thank you for helping me and giving birth to a son. I am sorry I have not been by your side and have caused you a lot of harm. I will use the next fifty years of my life to make up for it and love you.May I?”
Sarah’s heart, which was a strong walled fortress, crumbled in a moment at his words. She burst into tears.
Liam hugged her again and kissed her passionately, “We’ll talk about this when we get back. Don’t cry, Ashley is still inside. I just want you to know that I really like you. It’s not a momentary feeling, I really want to love you forever.”
Sarah was stunned. She had waited so many years for him to turn his back on her, how could she not shed tears of happiness. At that moment, the door to the emergency room opened.
The doctor came out, took off his mask and said, “Who is Ashley Jones’ family member?”
“Me. Physician, how is she?”
“Are you her…?”
“I’m her husband!” Leon said firmly.
“She was in danger of a miscarriage. Fortunately, you got here just in time. Both patient and baby are safe. She will have to be careful not to twist or fall. The placenta is weak before the fetus is three months old. You must take care of her.”
“Yes, okay!” Leon nodded excitedly, “May I see her?”
“Yes, but don’t let her get too excited.” The doctor advised, “We’ve given her an injection to save her pregnancy, we’ll have to keep her under observation. If the bleeding stops, you can go home and rest.”
“Okay. Thank you, doctor.” Leon nodded excitedly and rushed over to Ashley.
She was actually pregnant with his child. He had been too careless these days, he didn’t even notice that her face was getting so pale. He didn’t even know she was pregnant.
The gurney was wheeled out of the emergency room. Leon saw Ashley lying on the bed and looked at her with regret. Ashley was surprised to see him looking at her like that. She realized.
“You… You know?”
Leon just looked at her with a complicated expression. Did he just happen to find out, she thought. He had decided never to tell her.
Liam and Sarah also hurried over. Sarah looked at her and asked anxiously, “What happened, is everything okay?”
“Everything’s fine.” Ashley’s eyes were red, “Everything’s fine!”.
After walking into the room, tears welled up in Ashley’s eyes and she couldn’t stop crying. “Ashley, don’t cry.”
Leon reached out and stroked her face, wiping away her tears.
“The doctor said it’s not good for you to get too emotional. There’s still danger of miscarriage, so you need to stay calm – don’t get too worked up!”
Ashley obediently wanted to stop crying, but her unbearable sadness made her sob and the tears began to fall again.
She was wracked with tears, seeing her like this made Leon even more anxious and distraught, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I’m the bad guy.”
Liam saw him like this and quietly withdrew Sarah, leaving the two of them alone in the living room.
“You know that, so what? This child is mine; it has nothing to do with you! I don’t want you to be responsible. I can raise my child on my own!” yelled Ashley and said a bunch of nonsense afterwards.
Leon blamed himself: “Ashley, the doctor said you shouldn’t get too emotional. You’ll hurt the baby if you cry like that.”
He couldn’t wait to fantasize about the baby coming into the world, hoping it would be just like Ashley, beautiful and cute, a daughter.
“You know about the child, but I don’t care. This child is mine.”
“Yes! The baby is yours and it’s mine too!” he cajoled her.
“It’s not yours!” She choked as she wept bitterly. She sat up and threw herself into his arms crying and asked, “But you don’t love me anymore! But I still like you! What do I do if I like you but you don’t like me? I don’t want to marry you.”
Blaming himself for all this, Leon hugged her and said, “Who said I don’t like you?”.
She knew in her heart that his feelings for her were of liking, not love, but she still felt humbled and happy. She stopped crying and sobbed. Holding her like this, Leon sighed.
The suffering and waiting of these days seemed to have depressed him.
“Ashley, marry me, let’s get married!” he had thought long and hard about it.
He couldn’t live in the past forever, he had to appreciate the people around him in his life. Ashley was a very nice person; he couldn’t let her down.
Outside the room.
Sarah and Liam looked at the two people hugging, “Have you two made up?”.
“Sarah, let us reconcile too! I love you all my life.”
Liam decided to strike while the iron was hot. Sarah flatly refused, “Impossible!”.
“Why?”
“No reason.”
“Then accept me!”
“No!”
Liam was speechless.
The Rowland Family living room.
John took Daniel to play golf and Sammy stayed with Sherry to watch TV. To put it correctly, Sherry accompanied Sammy.
She took one look at Sammy and felt very sad. His eyes turned red. Seeing Sherry scared, William couldn’t help but feel guilty.
William called Alexis: “Alexis, I want Peter’s investigation report. A thorough investigation, don’t miss anything!”
“Darcy had a long-term relationship with him before he died. Nothing else has been found.” Alexis said into the phone, “But there will be news soon!”
“Long term?” William was stunned as something flashed through his mind.
“Yes.”
William was lost in thought, who the hell was this ally?
At that moment, another investigative report came in, “President, Miss Mclean is at the Church in City H. She is now Nun Lucille.”
William was even more stunned, thinking about the last pages that had been torn out. He thought of that ally.
What Lucille did was to protect someone, and she must have known that person, otherwise she wouldn’t have done it. She didn’t dare guess, but grabbed the clothes and went downstairs.
He said to Sherry, “Sherry, they’ve found Lucille! Come on.”
The two hurried to the church.
As soon as they arrived, the beautiful sound of the piano soothed anguished hearts.
Reggie had received the news and also hurried over. Everyone in the church saw Lucille in a nun’s uniform playing the piano with a smile on her face. Her smile was very bright, very splendid and peaceful.
At that moment, William and Sherry were also touched by her smile. They did not know how to move forward, ask about the child. Reggie’s face was also very calm.
He sat on the bench and watched her play the piano in silence. When Lucille finally turned her head without realizing it, she saw William, Sherry and Reggie.
At first she was startled, but then she regained her composure. She stopped playing and approached. At first, she smiled faintly and gave them all three a glance, her eyes filled with a self-sacrificing expression.
Reggie was very glad to see her like that. William looked at her blankly for some time and finally spoke, “Lucille, I want to know who that person is.”
“This is the last time I see them. After this, there will be no Lucille in this world. This is Peter. May the Lord forgive his sins.” Lucille prayed.
“It’s really him!” William was stunned for a while. He hadn’t expected it to be him at all.
“Everyone, please come back!” Lucille resumed her laughing expression, giving them a faint smile as she turned away.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Reggie said suddenly, his voice low.
Lucille paused for a moment, then continued walking forward. Without a word, she walked away, leaving for him only the sight of her leaving. Reggie’s eyes turned dark. He was speechless. He knew he must go.
“How can it be Mr. Mollison?” Sherry was still surprised by this tidbit of information as she sat in the car.
“Isn’t he the one you believe most?” William’s emotions were very complicated, “I don’t want to lose him right now, but I didn’t expect it to be him!”
“Is he really the one who took our son?” Sherry’s hands were clenched.
She was very nervous. Ever since she had learned that Sammy was not her son, she had been feeling continually anxious. She felt so anxious that she didn’t know what to do. Unexpectedly, that person turned out to be William’s best friend. Why would he do this? And hide it for so many years?
Sherry felt a shiver run down her spine. It all seemed like one big conspiracy, which gave her goose bumps. William didn’t know why she had done it, but he was going to find out. “Sherry, I’ll drop you off first and then I’ll go find a way to investigate this matter.” He drove with one hand, reached out the other and grabbed her cold hands to comfort her, “I’ll find it, trust me!”
“Hmm.” She nodded, “But why did he do this? It’s really horrible.”
William pursed his lips, his eyes darkening, “No matter why he did this, he will not succeed and he will be exposed. I will not allow him to continue to be presumptuous.”
He treated Peter like a brother, but…what did he do to him? Sherry glanced sideways at William; his handsome profile seemed resolute.
He glanced at her, too, then continued driving. His hand over hers tensed, “Don’t worry, you’ve got me!”.
“I’m just worried about what happens if the child denies us. If he’s living happily in someone else’s family, how will we bring him back?” said Sherry worriedly.
“What if he’s not happy? What if he’s beaten and harassed by people on the streets, what should I do then? I’m so worried about this; I’m so afraid…”
William grabbed her hand, “No, it won’t happen! Let me call.” He let go of her hands and dialed Alexis’ number, “Alexis, my son is missing! Peter changed my son! The boy that is with me right now is not my son.”
“Your son?” Alexis’ voice sounded doubtful, “That boy from last time? Dan? Impossible. He has the same characteristics as you. How could he be replaced?”
“He’s not my son, he was picked up by my wife!” William said and suddenly pressed the brake, stopping the car. His voice grew excited, “Alexis, did you just say Dan is like me?”
“Is there anyone more like you and your wife than him?” Alexis raised an eyebrow.
Sherry was taken aback. She was taken aback by these words. She unconsciously grabbed William’s sleeve, wanting to hear what Alexis had said.
William was stunned; his face showed a hint of joy. Alexis said to the other side, “Believe me! Dan is your son.”
