"Now do you believe it?"
"I believe, I believe, a hundred tis I believe! Oh, sister-in-law, you’re really not dead. I’m so excited. Wait, sister-in-law, your... child?"
Hope Williams’ belly didn’t look like she was pregnant at all now.
Wyatt Lewis gasped, "Could it be... the child..." was gone?
Wyatt didn’t dare to say those words.
Seeing the sadness already welling up on his face, Hope quickly spoke, "The baby was born a month and a half ago, he’s a boy, we’re calling him Baby for now, but..."
Hope hadn’t finished speaking when Wyatt excitedly craned his neck to look behind, "Baby, where is Baby? Where?"
Luke and Willow were also tense and excited, wanting to see their little brother.
Seeing the three of them craning their necks, Hope laughed, "Baby is still at the hospital in Country Y, he’s..."
Wyatt anxiously asked, "What’s going on? What’s wrong with Baby? Did sothing happen?"
Luke’s little face also tensed up, "How’s little brother?"
Willow urgently asked, "Mommy, is brother sick?"
Hope tugged at her lips, wondering if these three would let her finish speaking.
"It’s fine, it’s fine, Baby was born prematurely and needs to stay in an incubator for one to two months. Everything is going well now, don’t worry."
"That’s good, scared to death." Wyatt patted his chest and couldn’t help but beco excited again, "Sister-in-law, when can Baby leave the incubator? I can’t wait to see the little baby imdiately."
"Soon, he’ll probably be able to co ho with us in a week."
"That’s great."
Seeing their three excited faces, Hope couldn’t help but smile.
"Wait, sister-in-law, why was Baby born prematurely? Two months ago, wasn’t it only seven months? And you seem to have lost a lot of weight. How did you survive after falling into the sea? And why did it take you so long to co back? Did sothing happen?" Wyatt realized and quickly asked.
Hope pursed her lips, considered for a mont, and said, "Sothing happened that caused Baby to be born prematurely. I’ll tell you about it later."
"Alright, you coming back is the best news ever. Co in, co in, Dad, Mom, and Grandpa are all ho. I don’t know how happy they’ll be to see you."
Hope was also looking forward to seeing them soon, but she was even more eager to see Waylon Lewis. It’s been three months; she really missed him.
Every ti she was tortured by the poisoning to the point of despair, Hope thought in her mind, she couldn’t just sleep away like this, she had to stay alive to co back and see Waylon, she had to stay alive to see him.
"Waylon, is he not at ho?"
Wyatt quickly said, "My brother went to work. He either goes to the company very early every day or goes at night, spending most of his ti searching for you!"
Hope’s eyes flickered, "Searching for ?"
How could that be when Asher Ross told her back then, during his revenge at the Taylor Family, that Waylon searched for her on the sea for eight days and nights but couldn’t find her, so everyone assud she had died and gave up the search.
Later she asked Liam Cloud to tell Waylon that she wasn’t dead, but Liam never delivered the ssage.
Waylon shouldn’t have assud she was dead.
"Yes." Wyatt furrowed his brow, "Everyone said you were dead, but my brother refused to believe it. Two months ago, he even personally smashed your funeral. Grandpa, Dad, and Mom all urged him to stop looking, but my brother never gave up, using alcohol to numb himself in his downti. But fortunately, sister-in-law, my brother finally waited for you to co back."
As Wyatt spoke, he couldn’t help but tear up.
It was truly too agonizing.
He almost couldn’t hold on these past three months.
Hope felt a pang of heartache, paused in her steps while holding Luke and Willow’s hands, "Wait a mont."
"What’s wrong?"
"Could you tell Dad, Mom, and Grandpa that I’m back? I want to go see Waylon imdiately now."
Hope really wanted to run to Waylon without stopping, to tell him he didn’t have to search for her anymore, that she was back.
She wondered what Waylon’s expression would be when he saw her.
"Sure, I’ll let Dad, Mom, and Grandpa know. Sister-in-law, you should go quickly."
Hope nodded.
Luke and Willow held Hope’s hands tightly, unwilling to let go, "Mommy, can we go with you?"
Hope looked at the fearful, anxious eyes of her two little ones, eyes clearly afraid she would disappear again.
Hope’s heart ached fiercely once more.
She knelt down, gently stroked Luke and Willow’s heads, "Of course, but it looks like you’re carrying school bags to school. Can you take a day off?"
Wyatt imdiately supported Luke and Willow, "Of course, they already know all those classes at school. A day off won’t be a problem. I’ll help them take the day off. You should quickly go find my brother; I’ll take care of everything else."
Wyatt wanted their family to reunite as soon as possible.
It would be better for his brother to see his sister-in-law just a second earlier.
"Mm, thank you."
Hope quickly walked out with Luke and Willow.
Liam Cloud glanced faintly at Wyatt, "You can be useful at tis, but try having a bit of vision next ti. Not recognizing the real thing is quite enough."
Wyatt wasn’t happy with this, "Damn it, let’s go."
"To do what?"
"I’ll take you to see that woman. It’s really frustrating; she looks eight or nine-tenths like sister-in-law. Even my brother almost mistook her at first glance."
Luna Williams and Hope Williams are twin sisters with six or seven-tenths similarity, which is already a lot. That woman mimicked even more, worked as an assistant beside Waylon Lewis for so many years, and stayed with Hope for a few months, learning Hope’s habits to perfection and understanding all of Waylon Lewis’s preferences. If Waylon hadn’t later discovered she was Elias Patel, he really would have believed Hope’s soul possessed her.
Liam Cloud raised an eyebrow, "Not interested, leaving now."
...
Lewis Clan.
Inside the conference room.
The man sat in the main seat, his face extrely grim.
Everyone knew that ever since his wife died, the Boss had been in this state. Although they were used to it, it still left them terrified.
At this mont, Thomas Hughes hurriedly rushed in, looking as though he had seen a ghost.
People noticed that Thomas, who was usually the most disciplined, didn’t even knock and rushed in as if carried by a whirlwind of urgency, looking incredulous.
"Boss, g-good... news."
Waylon Lewis raised his brow and cast a faint glance at him, "Speak."
"Madam... the Madam has returned."
