Daley Moss pondered for a while before saying, “You marrying my eldest brother is just a ceremony. No law recognizes that kind of relationship. If you ever meet someone worthy of your love and want to get married again, the Moss family won’t stop you.”
“I won’t-” Amber Mitchell eagerly tried to guarantee.
However, Daley Moss interrupted her, “Listen, I won’t get mad if you want to get married again. I think my eldest brother would be able to rest in peace seeing you take things this far for him. It’s just that… When you get married again, that person mustn’t be George Gregory!” Daley Moss added his conditions, “If you marry anyone else, the Moss family will give you dowry so you can marry with honor. I, Daley Moss, will always treat you as my sister-in-law. But if you choose to marry George Gregory, everything you did today will only turn the Moss family and my eldest brother into a joke! You’ll make yourself an enemy of the Moss family!”
Amber Mitchell said with a stern expression, “Okay, I got it. But I don’t think that will ever happen.”
As far as she was concerned, no one would love her more than Herman. She was never going to love anyone else!
A few days later, the Gregory family announced that George Gregory was divorcing Louise Mitchell.
They also announced that Simon and Louise Mitchell were not mother and son.
After all, Simon was George Gregory’s biological son.
Therefore, there was a lot of fuss in the media. All sorts of speculations were made. What they were most curious about was who Simon’s biological mother was.
However, the Gregory family did not announce the name of Simon’s biological mother.
Kyla and Grace, who were in Emerald City, naturally read the news and learned about it.
Kyla had been discharged from the hospital, but her daughter was still being treated in the neonatal department as she was born prematurely. Hence, she would come over every day to see her.
Though she could only look through the transparent glass, she was happy to see the little one getting better day by day.
“I can arrange a driver to pick you up if you want to visit your daughter every day,” said Grace.
“It’s convenient for me to take a taxi, and the doctor said Trista can be discharged in two weeks. I won’t have to come to the hospital every day by then,” said Kyla.
“How are you recovering?” Grace asked with concern.
“Pretty good. Look, I can walk on my own now. My indicators are also fine when I had my follow-up check-up.” Kyla could not help saying emotionally, “I didn’t think I was going to make it. I asked the doctor how my liver is doing and he said it’s fine.”
Grace’s eyes glimmered slightly at that. ‘It’s fine because… Martin Weiss donated his liver to Kyla again, but Kyla has no idea about this!”
“Kyla, have you… ever contacted Martin Weiss again?” Grace could not help asking.
Kyla shook her head. “We’re no longer in touch, and I’ve moved out of his apartment. I guess that’s it for us. This is good. He won’t be sad in case anything happens to me.”
“But…” Grace almost blurted out about Martin Weiss’s liver donation. However, she said nothing when she recalled that Kyla’s body was still recovering, Trista was still in the incubator, and Grace was afraid of Kyla having intense mood swings.
She would tell Kyla the truth later.
“No buts. I’m afraid you’re about to suffer again in this pregnancy,” said Kyla.
Grace said, “My suffering is nothing compared to yours. After all, the threat to my life is minimal.” At most, she would lose her uterus. “But I’m willing to suffer for the baby.”
“Yeah, for the baby…” Kyla said emotionally.
Maybe only mothers could understand their love for their children. “Just like Amber Mitchell… Simon is her child and is currently sick. It seems that only Amber Mitchell’s blood can save the child. I think she’ll do anything to save him.”
Even though the child did not grow up with Amber Mitchell, blood ties were not something you could cut.
Grace nodded in agreement at that. She was surprised for a long time after hearing about this on the phone with Amber Mitchell.
However, what surprised her more was… Amber Mitchell had chosen to marry Herman Moss.
After all, Herman Moss died so many years ago, yet Amber Mitchell chose to become Herman Moss’s widow. Could Amber Mitchell ever be happy?
Would she immerse herself in the past for the rest of her life?
When Grace left the hospital and returned to Reed Residence, she found Jason in the room lulling their two children to sleep.
Mick and Jasper were lying side by side. They were covered with a thin blanket, and they hugged each other as they fell asleep. It was a beautiful sight.
“You’re back,” said Jason as he sat up and looked at Grace.
“Yeah.” She nodded. “I stopped by the hospital with Kyla to see Trista when I went to see her today.”
“How’s Trista?” Jason asked. Grace said, “She’s doing okay. She can be discharged in two weeks if everything goes well. Speaking of which, I almost told Kyla about Martin Weiss’s liver donation, but I was afraid she would get intense mood swings. I thought I’d wait until Trista is discharged.”
Jason said, “Suit yourself. You can decide how you want to handle it. Did you throw up when you were outside today?”
“I feel better now,” said Grace as she looked down at her belly. “Maybe the baby feels bad for me and wants me to throw up less.”
Sorry flickered in Jason’s eyes. If the baby threatened her life, he would not hesitate to abandon the baby to save the mother.
Even if she would resent and blame him for it, he would still do it!
He did not want to lose her for anything or anyone!
Even if it… was their baby and their flesh and blood!
“If this baby feels bad for you, they should keep you safe,” said Jason.
Grace burst into laughter. “Alright, it’s not that dangerous.
Besides, I have the most authoritative obstetricians and gynecologists in Emerald City to take care of my pregnancy.
I’m not so worried now. As for Amber Mitchell…”
Speaking of Amber Mitchell, Grace began to frown again.
“You said the last time that Simon isn’t doing okay. Can Amber Mitchell really save the child if she helps him with the transfusion?”
“There’s a certain possibility, but it isn’t very high,” said Jason.
“That… That boy…”
“With the Gregory family’s ability, they can keep the child alive even if the transfusion isn’t successful.
He’s just not going to be that healthy,” said Jason.
Grace sighed, now thankful that her triplets were healthy despite the rough labor.
As a mother, what she wanted most was for her children to be healthy and safe.
“I didn’t expect Simon to be George Gregory and Amber Mitchell’s child. Amber Mitchell thought she gave birth to a stillborn child. If George Gregory had saved Amber Mitchell when she was admitted to the mental hospital, everything would have been different,” Grace lamented.
“There aren’t so many what-ifs in this world. George Gregory is doomed to live in regret and pain for the rest of his life.” The deeper the love, the deeper the pain and regret! Grace sighed. “George Gregory has hurt Amber Mitchell too much. Even though they have a child together, Amber Mitchell… won’t forgive him.”
After spending time with Amber Mitchell, Grace learned that Amber Mitchell was a woman who had a clear-cut stand on what she liked and what she did not. Once she made up her mind, she would never go back on it.
Besides, she could see that there were no more past feelings in Amber Mitchell’s eyes when Amber Mitchell faced George Gregory. It was clear that Amber Mitchell no longer loved George Gregory.
“But I can’t believe that Amber Mitchell would choose to marry Herman Moss. Is it alright for her to wallow in the past like this?” In her opinion, one should always look ahead..
Jason said, “How would you know a person’s true feelings if you’re not them? Maybe this is the best for her. If she loves Herman Moss, it won’t be a bad thing. At least she’ll be happier.”
Grace froze slightly before chuckling. “Since it’s what Amber Mitchell wants to do, maybe… it’s good for her.”
With that said, her gaze fell on Jason’s face. “Jay, let’s not have any misunderstandings. Look, it’s so sad that George Gregory and Amber Mitchell got to this point because of a misunderstanding.”
“We won’t.” He raised his hand and pulled her into his arms. “We’ll never become that way.”
He would never be as stupid as George Gregory, ruining all his good chances. In Deer City. Amber Mitchell continued to stay in her rental house as if she had nothing to do with the chaos outside.
She did not care whether George Gregory and Louise Mitchell got divorced.
Now, the person who harmed her had been jailed and punished. She had married Herman as well.
She even had Herman’s things in her place now.
