Luca shook her head and told Marcos he did not need to thank her. After ncing at Luke, she
knocked on the door of the ward.
Then, she opened the door.
“Ms. Por," said Luca before she could even see her. She walked into the ward and gently closed the
door.
Luca usually came to visit in the afternoon, so Sarah was surprised to see her at this time. "Ms. Craw,
come sit down."
She had been here for several days now. The apprehensiveness she felt about Luca at the start was
gone, and now she was relieved that the person who saved her did not have ill intentions. Thus, she
could focus on recovery with peace of mind. She could repay Luca in the future.
However, Luca did not sit down. Instead, she nced at the caretaker and took out some cash before
handing it to her, saying, "Can you please get me a cup of coffee downstairs? I''ll keep an eye on things
here."
"Sure." The caretaker took the cash and left the ward without a word.
After the caretaker left, Sarah advised her, "Ms. Craw, drinking coffee at night will affect your sleep."
"Don''t worry about it." Luca shook her head as she did not actually want coffee. She just wanted an
excuse to send the caretaker away.
She pulled out the chair beside the bed and sat down as she looked at Sarah, who was on the bed.
Sarah thought that she was acting strange, so she asked, "Ms. Craw, what is it?"
Luca observed the traces of aging on Sarah''s face. After taking a look at the documents, she could see
that Sarah''s facial features still resembled her younger self. It was just that time and life had not been
kind to her.
A woman''s beauty could not stand the test of time.
"Ms. Por, you must''ve been very pretty when you were younger," said Luca.
Upon hearing what she said, Sarah began recalling how she looked when she was younger. Touching
the wrinkles on her face, she dodged her question and sighed. "I''m old now, so I can''t remember much.
Look at the wrinkles on my face. I''ve forgotten what I looked like."
She was indeed very beautiful in the past. Plus, she was well-educated, which was what attracted her
husband.
After the two got acquainted and fell in love, fate decided to y a trick on her, causing her to fall into
an endless abyss. She did not even dare to go to the hospital for surgery even when she was sick.
It was all because of her identity... Most importantly, it was because of money.
“You have nice facial features, so you must''ve been gorgeous when you were younger. By the way, I''ve
never heard you mention your family. Are they.." Luca was worried that bringing this up would affect
Sarah''s mood and her health, so it was the first time she ever brought it up during Sarah''s stay at the
hospital.
A look of grief shed across Sarah''s eyes.
Luca noticed it and did not say anything else as she was trying to make out what Sarah felt about
Marcos.
If Sarah did not miss Marcos, she would have to be more cautious about this family reunion.
Her silence allowed Sarah to reminisce about the past, and after a while, she said slowly, "My husband
passed away many years ago. It''s been about 20 years, and as for the child.."
Sarah could only vaguely remember what her child looked like. At that time, she left in a hurry, so she
could not even take a photo with her.
Even the memory that was engraved in her heart became blurry after so long.
Sarah could only remember that her child looked like a carbon copy of his father, but she could not
remember anything other than that.
Now that her child had grown up, he did look very simr to herte husband.
They did not look identical, but she would always be reminded of her deceased husband when she saw
photos of him.
"Ms. Por, do you miss your child?" Looking at the grief in her eyes, she knew that Marcos would be
able to meet Sarah.
However, she still tread carefully.
"Of course. How could I not miss him?" Sarah smiled bitterly. That was her only child.
"But knowing that he''s doing well now is enough," she said. She did not take the child with her because
she did not have the means to do so, and her child would be better off there instead of spending his
entire life running away with her.
"How do you know he''s doing well?" Luca asked, then she realized that she had asked a stupid
question.
Although Sarah was forced into hiding in the suburbs of A City, resources were not scarce in this day
and age. Sarah could just go on the inte to see how Marcos was doing.
Although there were very few local reports about Marcos'' family, with a bit of research, Sarah could find
some information.
Sarah smiled without exining.
Even if she trusted Luca, Luca would not believe her if she told her who her child was.
Who would believe that she graduated from a prestigious university, married into a rich family, had a
loving husband, and gave birth to an heir?
No one would believe any of that.
After all, she was a nobody living in the suburbs of A City, surviving with just odd jobs. She was so
insignificant that nobody would notice if she went missing.
Luca noticed her silence and stopped questioning further. Instead, she stood up and said, “Ms. Por, I
have a friend I''d like to introduce you to."
Sarah panicked when she heard that and asked carefully, "What friend?"
Luca smiled and opened the door without saying a word.
Sarah called out to her again, "Ms. Craw?"
"Ms. Por, don''t worry. I won''t do anything to hurt you," said Luca as she walked out. Her eyes met
Marcos'', and she said, "I can tell that she misses you a lot."
Marcos calmed himself down.
The VIP ward was well-soundproofed, so he could not hear a thing when Luca was inside, which made
him even more worried.
After such a long time, he thought that Sarah did not want to see him.
Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
"Go in." Luca turned sideways to give him space.
Marcos nodded and worked up the courage to walk in.
Luca closed the door to give the mother and son some time alone.
After everything, she looked at Luke''s dark pupils and asked, "Should we wait here?"
"Sure." Luke had no objection, so both of them sat down in the corridor.
The chairs were upholstered in leather, so they were much morefortable than the stainless steel
chairs. Then, she fell silent for a bit before saying, "Sarah has gone through so much, and now she can
finally see her child again."
"They''re able to reunite thanks to your generosity," Luke was telling the truth. If it were not for Luca,
Sarah might not even be alive by the time they found her.
After performing surgery on Sarah, Johann said that if she had gone to him anyter, she might not
have made it.
It was Luca''s determination that saved Sarah''s life.
No one else would help a stranger out so willingly.
Marcos also heard about this from Johann, so he was very grateful to Luca.
He also said that after meeting up with Sarah, he would send a big gift to T Corporation.
The reason why he decided not to gift Luca directly was simple. First of all, there was not much he
could do to help Luca''s line of work. Secondly, Luke and Luca were husband and wife anyway, so he
decided to send a gift to T Corporation to express his gratitude.
