Lilia who was standing beside llisa's bed stepped forward and gave her sister a few sips of water. After wiping the water stain on the corner of llisa's lips, Lilia smiled softly and said, "Let's rest for a bit. You've been struggling through that critical night, so you need lots of rest. I don't want to lose my sister again, okay?"
Lilia deliberately said that to tell llisa's parents about what this woman had been through. In her heart, Lilia didn't really care whether she could step back towards the door of the Irwan Family house or not. He just wanted llisa to be safe, and he also wanted her parents to know about the hard life her sister had been living all this ti. Only then will llisa not have to worry about her life again.
The words Richard and Janice had just now made no sense, though they were convincing. They had emphasized that if Lilia was llisa's sister, they would definitely admit it and let her return to the Irwan Family ho.
But not once did they admit that Lilia was their daughter. Those two people only said that Lilia was the daughter of the Irwan Family. It was as if they were stating that the Irwan Family's blood was indeed flowing in Lilia's body. But she will never be their daughter.
Even though Lilia had suspected this possibility, her heart still ached when faced with that harsh reality. She was rejected by the Pangestu Family for not being their biological daughter, and she was also rejected by the Irwan Family for trying to replace their favorite daughter.
Lilia smiled bitterly and lowered her gaze. There is nothing he can do about how parents feel about their children. She never chose to be born into this complicated situation. But the adults who should be responsible are blaming her for the situation that Lilia can't change.
Janice and Richard have loved Leila for years. Even when they were on their way to search for the truth, they would unconsciously keep Leila looking. This is sothing human, where they cannot let go of the emotional connection that has been building up over the years.
As Lilia thought from the beginning, how could the love that had been built for so long be taken back overnight?
"Oh, what's wrong?"
The ward door swung open and a woman's voice broke the silence. His appearance changed the gloomy atmosphere within the ward. Everyone automatically turned to Jenny, who had just arrived.
Jenny opened the door with a big smile on her face. He is wearing a short cotton suit and a pair of black pencil pants. Today Jenny ditched her usual hostess graceful attitude, leaving her looking gentle and more approachable than usual.
Richard turned to Jenny. For an instant, an embarrassed expression crossed his face. "Sis Jenny." He said, "Why do you bother coming here?"
"Of course I ca to visit my two nephews, llisa and Lilia." Jenny replied casually. "Why? Am I not allowed to co here? "
Jenny's calm answer helped Lilia's heart a little. Apart from her brother, only Jenny accepted Lilia as part of the Irwan Family.
Richard laughed ambiguously. "No, that's not what I ant."
Then Jenny glanced at Janice, who was still wiping her tears. She put on a shocked expression and asked, "Why did Janice cry like this? Did sothing bad happen? "
"No, everything is fine." Janice hurriedly shook her head. "I'm sorry for worrying you." She forced a bitter smile with her eyes still red.
Janice walked from the front of the hospital bed to Richard's side, but her eyes remained fixed on llisa's figure.
Jenny's sharp eyes seed to understand everything. He smiled faintly and stepped steadily in front of llisa. Then Jenny leaned over and patted the back of her hand.
"llisa, how are you? Is your body okay?" Jenny asked softly.
Initially, llisa's impression of Jenny was the sa as it was five years ago. To him, that woman was the oldest aunt that no one should ignore. But that impression had changed since llisa saw her aunt defend herself and Lilia with her own eyes last night. Her heart was filled with warmth by Jenny's touching action.
llisa forced a smile and said, "Auntie, I'm fine. Sorry for worrying you."
"llisa, we are all our own family! At least let your aunt worry about her niece! " Jenny laughed and clapped her hands one more ti.
Then Jenny's gaze shifted to the woman standing beside llisa's bed.
"Lilia, how about you? I heard you've been staying here to look after llisa since last night. Aren't you tired? Have you rested enough? " Jenny asked.
Jenny's gentle gaze at Lilia showed undeniable concern.
llisa was secretly satisfied and relieved. If everyone in Irwan's family makes his sister feel the chill of rejection, then Jenny is the warm sun that dispels the cold waves.
Lilia stared at Jenny for a mont, but she could see the genuine care in her eyes. Lilia smiled softly and said politely, "I'm not tired, really. Thank you for your concern, Aunt Jenny. "
"Lilia, you don't need to be too formal with ." Jenny chided him gently. "Aren't we family?"
Hearing those words, Lilia's heart filled with warmth. Jenny is the first adult in the Irwan family to admit her identity without any explanation.
Apart from being touched, Lilia also felt very lucky because there was soone who made her feel that she was warmly welcod. That there is a place for him in the Irwan Family.
Lilia's eyes gradually turned red and she bit her lower lip, trying not to cry. As Lilia struggled to control her emotions, Jenny continued to stare at her in a friendly manner. He could feel the confusion and doubt in Lilia, so Jenny chose to wait patiently.
After a few seconds, which felt like minutes to Lilia, the woman took a deep breath. Her bright, clear eyes t Jenny's. A beautiful smile spread across Lilia's face and she said softly, "Yes, Auntie. We are family now."
Jenny took advantage of the mont and clapped her hands. Her smile beca even stronger. "Good answer! Don't you think so, Richard, Janice?" Jenny deliberately dragged the two people in her words.
At this ti, the faces of Richard and his wife who were standing behind Jenny changed color from red to white. Jenny's warm attitude towards Lilia gave them a big slap.
Their biological daughter who has been gone for 24 years now stands in front of them. However, they were hesitant because of the oddity. They refused to acknowledge Lilia even though they knew this would only hurt her feelings.
Jenny squinted at Richard and his wife. Then he pulled a chair beside llisa's bed and sat down there. At the sa ti, he waved at Lilia.
"Lilia, co to Auntie!" Call Jenny.
Hearing this, Lilia didn't hesitate. He walked over to Jenny's side obediently and placed his hand on the woman's palm.
At this ti, no one knew what Jenny would do. Everyone's eyes moved with the woman's movents. Jenny ignored the confusion in everyone's eyes and took llisa's hand with one hand.. Now Jenny is holding her two sisters from the Irwan family who have suffered all this ti.
