At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Emily, who was about to dig into her bowl of chicken soup, raised her head and stared at the door expectantly. Lilin ran over and opened the door.
Sure enough, Corinne was standing outside.
"Miss Corinne, you''re finally here! You have no idea how much Miss Emily has been looking forward to your visit!"
Corinne nodded and said, "Sorry, I''ve been so busy these past two days. I only have some time to spare today."
The excited Lilin was about to grab Corinne''s hand and pull her in but realized that someone else was already holding her hand.
Only then did she notice that someone was standing beside Corinne. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw who it was. "Z-Zachary? You can stand?"
Jeremy''s face darkened when he saw Sophia''s half-sister, even though Melinda and Lilin never did anything to him as Sophia did.
He ignored Lilin and held Corinne''s little hand tighter.
Hearing Lilin call out Zachary''s name in surprise, Melinda stood up and came over to take a look. She was just as shocked as Lilin.
Corinne, too, knew that Jeremy would not like these two people since they were rted to Adam and Sophia, so she did not force him to greet them.
She just smiled politely at them and said, "Hello, Missus Addison. I''vee to visit my mother."
Melinda snapped out of her shock and nodded quickly. "Come in,e in. She''s been waiting for you to visit!"Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
Corinne led Jeremy into the ward. Together, they walked up to Emily.
Melinda and Lilin kept staring at Jeremy''s legs, a little shocked that his legs hadpletely recovered.
Emily-who was sitting up on the hospital bed-looked at her daughter, then at the man beside her. She immediately understood everything.
''My daughter has brought her husband to meet me!'' she thought.
"Moonie, you''re here!" she said.
Corinne nodded and pulled Jeremy forward. "Mom, this is the person I''ve told you about!"
Jeremy frowned. ''Why couldn''t she just tell her mom that I''m her husband?''
However, he reminded himself to put on his best behavior in front of his mother-inw. He bowed slightly and greeted her with a smile. "Nice to meet you, Miss Emily. Sorry for not bringing you a gift. I came in too much of a hurry."
"It''s okay. You don''t have to feel sorry about it." Emily looked at Jeremy again; she definitely approved of his looks.
She had heard of him but had not seen him before. She knew that he was forcibly kept by Melinda''s stepdaughter, Sophia.
''No wonder Sophia is obsessed with him. He is handsome.''
During the days she was in Molomia, Sophia hid him so well that outsiders rarely got to see him. She had only heard of him but had never seen him.
There was an awkward silence after that, and it was Lilin''s who broke the silence first.
"Wow! It''s really different!"
