“Grace, what are you doing here?” asked K Corbyn.
“Martin Weiss told me about it.” Grace walked closer, took a deep breath, and said, “K, have the
operation. It’s yourst chance. If you give it up, there’s really no way for you to recover from your
illness.”
“Grace!” K Corbyn started to panic, fearing that Nelson would find out about her illness.

However, Grace had deliberately said it in front of her child in hopes that K Corbyn would take the
gamble for Nelson.
“K, I know these few months are precious to you. You’re afraid that once you take the bet, you won’t
even have these few months, but… if you win, you’ll be able to watch Nelson grow up.”
As she spoke, Grace paused and touched her bulging belly. “It’s like how I’m gambling too. Maybe it
would’ve been safer if I had chosen a fetal reduction, but as a mother, it’s hard to give up any of my
three children. So I decided to take a gamble for the kids.”
“K, you have to take a gamble for yourself too. If you miss this opportunity, don’t you think Nelson
will resent you when he grows up? He’ll resent you for not taking the bet and leaving him so soon. You
have nothing to lose by betting a few months against
several decades!”

K Corbyn trembled and looked at her bewildered son.
‘Will he? Will Nelson resent me in the future?’
The little one could not quite understand what the adults were saying, but he did understand one thing.
“Mommy, I don’t want you to leave me. I want to grow up with you. I… I’ll grow up soon, and I can
protect you when I grow up!”
K Corbyn immediately burst into tears.
The little one quickly climbed into bed and wiped away her tears with his tender little hands.
Just then, Martin Weiss suddenly pushed the ward door open and walked in. “I… I want to talk to K
alone. Is that alright?”
The people in the ward were stunned, and the little one seemed like he was ready to confront an
enemy. Although his father had sent his mother to the hospital, he was still afraid that he would hurt
her.
With tears still in her eyes, K Corbyn looked at Martin Weiss who was standing not far away.
It had never urred to her that she would be far more involved with this man than she previously
imagined.

talk to him alone.”
“I’m not going out. I want to protect Mommy,” Nelson said as he widened his eyes.
K Corbyn rubbed her son’s little head. “Keep guard outside the ward. I’ll call for you if I’m in danger.
Then you cane in and protect me, okay?”
Although Nelson Corbyn was a smart and precocious child, he was only four years old, after all. After
hearing what his mother said, he thought it made sense after giving it some thought so he nodded his
little head.
The group of people walked out of the ward. Only K Corbyn and Martin Weiss were left in the huge
ward now.
Martin Weiss stood a little awkwardly, finding himself feeling uneasy under her gaze. It was as if he was
about to be executed.
‘How long has it been since I felt this way?’
