Chapter 748 An Enchanting Dream
After Cecilia left, Pa was rushed into several hours of emergency treatment. Miraculously, the doctors managed to rer from the jaws of death.
The moment she awoke, her gaze swept her surroundings. Other than the caregiver, not a single loved one was by her side, not even Cecilia.
Pa parted his parched lips. “Where… is she?”
The caregiver immediately leaned in. “Who?”
“Cecilia.”
The caregiver knew that deep down, Pa still held a ce in her heart for Cecilia. She exined, “She must have had some matters to attend to, so she left.”
Pa was just about to mock when the caregiver took out the business card that Cecilia had given her earlier. “Look, she gave this to me. She mentioned that if you have any more problems, I could call her at any time. She would take responsibility.”
Upon hearing this, Pa, surprisingly, did not ridicule.
The caregiver tucked the business card away, murmuring, “You know, I have a rtive who also has two daughters. She, too, ys favorites, only doting on the younger one. But when she grew old, her adored little daughter didn’t care for her at all. On New Year’s Eve, she was even driven out of her own home. The eldest daughter, whom she didn’t favor since childhood, surprisingly took her in. They lived together, and now she tells me, her eldest daughter is the best.”
Pa’s lips parted slightly. “Are they both her biological children?”
“No, the eldest daughter is adopted,” the caregiver replied.
Pa’s eyes narrowed in disbelief. “Would her adopted daughter treat her well?”
“What’s wrong with an adopted daughter? As long as she’s grateful and gives back, she can be much better than a biological daughter, the caregiver argued.
Pa fell silent.
The caregiver looked puzzled. “Why have you gone silent? Your two daughters have different fathers, but that doesn’t mean you can y favorites because you prefer your current husband. You shouldn’t neglect your older daughter, right?”
The caregiver had assumed that Cecilia was the eldest daughter, and believed that Pa, after divorcing Cecilia’s father, had found someone else arid given birth to Cassandra.
Enough.”
Pa halted her from speaking further
The caregiver immediately sealed her lips, she almost forgot that this woman was not deserving of sympathy.
That night, the caregiver went to rest.
Pa was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
The woman beside her had her daughter visit her again, only leaving when it was time for her to sleep.
“Howe your daughter treats you so well?” Pa couldn’t help but ask.
The woman barely hesitated before replying, “Because I’m her mother, of course she treats me well. Naturally, I adore her too.”
“Why doesn’t my daughter love me?” For the first time, Pa revealed her vulnerable side in front of others.
After hearing this, the woman fell silent for a while, but couldn’t helpforting her. “Every daughter cherishes their mother. Have you done something to hurt her? I overheard your conversation with your daughter earlier, and it sounded as if you were enemies.”
After hearing this, Pa was once again reminded of Cecilia.
She no longer held the arrogance she had during the day, and for the first time, she voiced her inner thoughts. “She used to always do as I said, whatever I asked of her, she would do it without ever going against my wishes.”
Upon hearing this, the woman didn’t quite agree with her actions, but she chose not to voice her opinions.
Pa soon drifted off to sleep as she murmured to herself.
After she fell asleep, she had a dream where she found herself back in the past.Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
She no longer bullied Cecilia as she used to. Instead, she started showing concern for her. Regas hadn’t passed away either.
Several yearster, she fell seriously ill. Regas, Cecilia, and even her grandson came to visit her.
The dream was so enchanting that upon waking, Pa felt an overwhelming sense of mncholy.
She had already experienced dreams of this sort a few times before.
Pa nced at the time, it was only six in the morning. She looked out the window, the cold wind was howling outside
She endured the pain, rising from her sickbed and made her way outside the hospital.
