Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Chapter 647

You don’t need to worry about me anymore.

Let me repay you for all you’ve done.

Mom, I used to believe we had endless time, and that we could make up for lost time.

But I didn’t expect… “

Overcome with emotion, tears cascaded down Lindsey’s face, falling gently onto the back of Juanita’s hand.

“Mom, I know you’ll try to convince me otherwise, but sorry, I still have to do that.

You know, I’ll feel guilty for the rest of my life if I don’t seek justice for you.

I don’t want to live like this.

I’ve already regretted it once, and I don’t want to regret it a second time.

So, forgive me for my willfulness, please,” Lindsey whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.

Gazing at her mother’s peacefully sleeping face, Lindsey noticed a single tear slowly trickling down from the corner of Juanita’s eye.

Shocked, she gently shook her mother’s shoulder.

“Mom, can you hear me? Mom, wake up!”

Despite Lindsey’s efforts and calls, Juanita remained unresponsive.

It seemed the tear was nothing but an illusion.

Slumping back in her chair, a bittersweet smile adorned Lindsey’s face.

At nine o’clock in the evening, a knock echoed on the door.

Lindsey opened it, finding Benny standing outside.

“Dad,” she greeted Benny in a subdued tone.

Benny approached Juanita’s bed slowly, step by step.

She lay there, peaceful.

Overwhelmed by mixed feelings, Benny sat on the edge of the bed, gently patting Juanita’s hand.

“Juanita, I’m here to see you.

How did you make yourself look Like this?”

Lindsey glanced at her father, then turned back to her mother.

Taking a deep breath, she asked, “Dad, can you stay with Mom tonight?”

Benny looked sideways at Lindsey but remained silent.

In a gentle and resonant voice, Lindsey continued, “Mom said she never forgot you.

She told me that things might have been different if she had been more gentle in the past.

It’s her long regret to have divorced you.

”

Hearing this, a complicated expression emerged on Benny’s wrinkled face.

He glanced back at Juanita and sighed deeply.

Lindsey couldn’t decipher what was going through her father’s mind, but she felt compelled to share those words to retain Benny.

“Dad, the doctor mentioned that Mom would benefit from having a loved one talk to her.

Perhaps it will help her recover.

So, I was thinking…”

“Alright, I’ll stay with her tonight.

” Benny’s gaze softened with sadness.

Despite his lingering selfishness, he couldn’t bear to see the woman he once loved in this fragile state.

“Thank you, Dad,” Lindsey expressed gently.

“I have some work to attend to tonight.

Please look after Mom for me.
