After Divorcing the Tycoon, I Married into a Wealthy Family Again Chapter 137: Memories (37)

"Mom was listed in critical condition after the surgery, the doctor said to prepare for the worst. I sent you the information, but thankfully..." Charles Shaw took a breath, "Mom pulled through."

Florence Fuller looked at the person on the hospital bed and stood there for a long ti, "Didn’t they say... she was discharged?"

Charles Shaw’s eyes reddened with shock, he opened his mouth but couldn’t speak.

"If you need to talk, do it outside," a doctor nearby interjected with a sigh, "The patient needs a quiet environnt."

The people in the room left.

When Evelyn Shaw ca back with hot water, she saw Florence Fuller in the corridor and was startled. She quickly walked up, "Florence."

"Evelyn." Florence Fuller’s eyes were moist as she looked at her.

"You ca so quickly." She noticed the man behind Florence Fuller, "How have you been all these years?"

"Pretty well."

Evelyn gave a pale smile, "That’s good... this way, Dad can rest in peace."

Florence Fuller trembled all over, feeling she had misheard, "What did you say?"

Evelyn saw her reaction, then looked at Charles Shaw, realizing her brother hadn’t told her.

"What did you say!" Florence Fuller grabbed Evelyn’s hand, her hand trembling, "Say it again!"

Florence Fuller was getting emotional, and Evelyn, with tears in her eyes, said, "Florence!"

"Dad’s gone!"

"Nonsense!" Florence Fuller shouted, causing people around the corridor to turn their heads frequently. Ethan Harper stepped forward to comfort her, "Florence, let’s calm down."

Florence Fuller shook her head, tears falling uncontrollably as she threw herself into Ethan Harper’s arms, crying bitterly.

Charles Shaw stepped forward, speaking hoarsely, "Westroad Cetery, let’s go take a look."

Ethan Harper t his gaze and nodded.

"You guys go in and take care of her," Ethan Harper said to Charles Shaw, holding the person in his arms, "I’ll watch over her here."

Although Charles Shaw didn’t know who he was, seeing him with Florence Fuller, it must an they are acquainted.

"Take care of her," Charles Shaw said, "This news is... quite a blow to her."

Ethan Harper held Florence Fuller, looked down at the person in his arms, who was still sobbing.

"Let’s go take a look," Ethan Harper whispered, "Go et him."

Westroad Cetery.

Florence Fuller had received the grave location sent by Evelyn Shaw. As soon as she stepped in, she was filled with sorrow looking at the gravestones all over.

Ethan Harper found the location and took her there. Florence Fuller saw the na Henry Shaw at a glance and froze in place.

Ethan Harper looked at her.

Florence Fuller stared at the gravestone in front of her, her breathing uneven, just dazedly looking ahead.

Tears silently fell as she kept watching, "Why... did this happen."

Only three short years, just three years.

And a family was shattered.

Ethan Harper stepped forward to hug her, pressing her into his embrace.

Florence Fuller clutched his clothes, "I didn’t bla him for sending back to the Fuller Family. I wanted to tell him I didn’t bla him. I knew it all, he had no choice but to do it to treat Mom. I understood."

She never got to see Henry Shaw one last ti before he died, and now she stood across from this cold gravestone, separated by life and death.

"Why isn’t he here, why!" Florence Fuller choked, "Why did this happen."

Listening to her heartbroken cries, Ethan Harper felt little comfort despite not knowing much about Florence Fuller’s adoptive family. From what he occasionally heard from her, she must have been happy at ho before.

But now, it seed, this family was completely shattered.

When they returned to the hospital, it was already evening.

Alia Linney had still not woken up, and Florence Fuller pushed the door open to go in, with Charles Shaw and Evelyn Shaw remaining at the bedside.

Evelyn Shaw exchanged a glance with Charles Shaw, who then got up to take Florence Fuller out of the ward.

The girl in front wasn’t in a great state, her eyes red and swollen, and her voice hoarse, "When did Dad’s accident happen?"

"A week ago, a car accident," Charles Shaw replied.

"Why wasn’t I inford at the ti."

Charles Shaw shook his head.

Florence Fuller gave a pale smile, "I lived in this house for fifteen years, grew up here, and now everything has to be so clearly divided?"

"Dad said he was sorry to you for his entire life. Our Shaw Family has been sorry to you for a lifeti. Sending you back for money made him feel he was no better than selling out a daughter for glory. He wanted to call you before he drew his last breath, but he said he didn’t even have the right to apologize, that he wasn’t fit to have been your father."

Florence Fuller smiled, but it was a desolate smile, "I didn’t bla him."

"But he blad himself," Charles Shaw said, "After sending you away, he lived every day in regret. He worried you weren’t doing well at the Fuller Family, but knowing their wealth and status, he assud you wouldn’t be doing too badly. He had been working tirelessly for three years to earn money for Mom’s treatnt, even resigning from his school job. He felt the suffering of these three years was what he deserved."

"He thought he was guilty for sending away, so he used hardship to numb himself, to ease his feelings," Florence Fuller wiped away her tears. "I called and ssaged you guys, but your replies were scant. I just wanted to tell him I didn’t bla him for sending back, I knew everything. But he never answered, not a single call, even blocking later."

Henry Shaw was too ashad to face her, so until now, she hadn’t seen him one last ti before he died.

Charles Shaw shook his head, saying nothing.

The two of them stood in silent confrontation for a long ti, and Florence Fuller wanted to return to the ward, "I’m going to see Mom."

Alia Linney had been bedridden since handling Henry Shaw’s affairs, still not knowing when she would wake up.

"See her this ti, then just go back," Charles Shaw said.

Florence Fuller’s movent to open the door paused, "What do you an?"

"Dad said our family has no face to face you again. You missed seeing him one last ti, and I don’t want you to miss seeing Mom too, so..."

Charles Shaw hesitated, looking at her with a complex expression, "Florence, you understand what I an."

"Cut all ties?"

"The Shaw Family took the Fuller Family’s money."

"So you have to comply?" Florence Fuller looked at him, "Wipe away fifteen years in this family just like that?"

Charles Shaw shook his head and could only say, "I’m sorry."

Florence Fuller took a deep breath, "When Mom wakes up, I’ll see her before I leave."

"Her current condition is very fragile, unable to withstand emotional turmoil," Charles Shaw said with difficulty, "I shouldn’t have sent you the ssage."

Just like how Henry Shaw worried about his daughter before his death, but when Charles suggested calling to let him hear Florence Fuller’s voice, Henry said he didn’t deserve it.

He uttered an apology with his last breath.

These three years had been difficult for him, but Henry Shaw said that sending Florence Fuller away, the hardships and fatigue of living were what he deserved.

Their family and Florence Fuller should no longer have any ties.
