Chapter 1117 My Mom's Kidney
After that, she turned towards Cherise, seated in the first row behind the altar, and murmured, "Thank you." With Alexis's age and family background… That could be the only time. The child she was pregnant with during the accident that she deliberately caused. She had wanted to perish with her child.
When she regained consciousness, she was convinced the child had died. Terrified that others would think she still cared for Lennon, she consciously masked her genuine emotions, insisting she felt no attachment to the child, maintaining that it didn't matter that the child was gone. Perhaps... only Cherise saw beyond her façade. Otherwise… How else could she have covertly rescued the child...
With tears brimming in her eyes, Cherise bit her lip, fixing her gaze upon Lucy, unable to voice a single word. They were inseparable allies, bonded after experiencing many obstacles together. With just a glance from Lucy, Cherise realized that Lucy knew everything. No further dialogue was needed. She brushed away a tear, offering Lucy a reassuring smile, and whispered, "You've got this."
Lucy's lips curved into a tight smile as she nodded, "Thanks." Swiveling to face Lennon, she began, "Mr. Belcourt, there's something I need to address. Regardless of whether this child is ours, you don't have the authority to approach me and dictate that this son can't call my future husband 'Dad.'"
"What makes you think you have the right to connect with my child or disrupt my wedding? Is it because my mother's kidney was transplanted in you? Or is it because your sister confined me, subjecting me to daily abuse after I became pregnant with your child?"
"Or perhaps it's because your family pushed me and my father to a breaking point, forcing us out of Adania? Or maybe it's because your sister hit me with a car, causing the accident that left me unable to conceive again?"
