Epilogue: An Unexpected
Visitor
Quinn lay weakly on the hospital bed. Nathan placed a peeled lime on the bedside table.
“The doctor said you need to breastfeed for at least three months.”
Quinn turned her face away, remaining silent and indifferent. Nathan sighed, feeling helpless.
“I know it’s unfair to ask you to get pregnant and have a baby at the peak of your career.”
“I even thought about asking you to terminate it.” He pursed his lips. “But you heard what the doctor said–if you terminate this pregnancy, you may never be able to conceive again.”
Before he could say more, a nurse entered, cradling the baby.
“Mrs. Brown, look how adorable the baby is! Those eyes, that nose–it’s practically your twin. She’ll surely be a beauty when she grows up.”
With Nathan and the nurse’s encouragement, Quinn finally agreed to breastfeed the baby for three months. She gazed at the wrinkled little one in her arms and softly said to Nathan, “I wonder if she’ll look like you or me when she grows up.”
Nathan smiled. “With our genes, she’ll
definitely be even better. Don’t worry!”
“Let’s hope so.”
“By the way, we should name her.” Quinn glanced at the lime beside her. “Let’s call her Lydia.”
Before my soul completely dissipated, I entered Lucas’s dream and found him.
His eyes were red and puffy. “Sis, you finally came to see me.”
I wanted to pat his head like I used to when we were kids, but I realized he had grown taller than me.
“Lukie, you’re already an adult.”
He wiped away his tears. “Sis, will you blame me?”
“Why did it take you so long to come into my dreams?”
I shook my head. “I’ve been busy. Don’t you want to be my brother anymore?”
His eyes sparkled with excitement. “Can I be your elder brother instead?”
I smiled. “Of course, but you have to live your life well.”
He nodded firmly, believing my words and regaining his strength.
He successfully entered university, pursued a doctorate, and became a lawyer like our mother.
But unlike her, he stood for justice, refusing to let the cycle of injustice continue.
Everyone said that marrying Joseph Miller must have been because I saved the galaxy in a past life.
He once swore in front of everyone that he would marry no one but me in this life.
Yet, on our wedding day, he abandoned me in front of all the guests for his pregnant first love.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
What he didn’t know was that I was dying. From the moment he left me, there was no future for us.
Later, he found out that my ashes were scattered into the Colorado River.
He turned gray overnight.
