Chapter 471
The two stared at the photo for a while. After Sharlene epted it, Lea told her more in a gentle andforting tone, “He grew up in a happy family. His family loves him deeply. He’s outstanding. He’s a genius.”
Sharlene’s tears fell on the phone screen.
She hurriedly wiped them with her hand, but the photo on the screen became blurry. Sharlene immediately picked up the phone and wiped it on her chest. This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.
Then, she stared nkly at the phone.
“Also, the child you wanted to protect has grown up safely. She’s doing well now.” As she said, tears welled up in Lea’s eyes.
Sharlene suddenly turned her head at Lea. She retreated warily and leaned against the wall with the phone.
“Do you want to see your son? He’d love to see you. He’d like to see his mother,” asked Lea.
“Yes!” Sharlene leaned closer to Lea and grabbed Lea’s hand. Her hoarse voice was anxious, but soon, she shrank back and kept shaking her head.
, She could not let her son see her like this. She was a lunatic.
Her son would be sad to <b>see </b>her.
“Okay, let’s drop it. When you’re better and want to see him, I’ll bring him to you,” Lea said.
Lea apanied Sharlene for more than an hour. Sharlene was vignt and did not chat much, so Lea just stayed by her side.
It was not until it was dark and Sharlene was tired that Lea left after coaxing her to sleep.
Ivan, Sydney, Marcus, and Christian were waiting at the stairs.
Sharlene could be considered the daughter–inw of the Berry family.
They wanted to wait outside the ward but worried they would agitate Sharlene.
Lea had taken so long beforeing out. Everyone let out a sigh of relief and held their breaths again.
“Her rationality is still there. She still has some memories. She’s curable,” Lea told them.
The rest of the people were relieved.
Sydney’s and Marcus’s eyes were filled with tears.
“I want to see her…” Ivan choked. He lowered his head to hide the tears in his eyes<b>. </b>
Knowing that he had such a mother, he was shocked. At the same time, he thought of her experience and was sorry for her. Now, he only wanted to see her<b>, </b>although people said Sharlene was a bad woman and a lunatic with an antisocial personality.
Lea shook her head. “She doesn’t feel safe and is vignt. She doesn’t want to see anyone now. I’ll treat her for some time.<b>” </b>
Her words reassured the others.
From that day on, Lea took time to apany Sharlene <b>every </b>day. Lea told <b>Sharlene </b>stories and showed videos of her <b>son </b>growing up.
The <b>Alvarez </b>family provided the photos and videos.
Ivan, Willow<b>, </b>and Lorenzo had a lot of photos and videos since they were young. Sydney <b>even </b>told Lea a lot of interesting things about Ivan years old. Lea memorized them and told Sharlene.
<b>A </b>weekter<b>, </b>Lea went to have breakfast with Sharlene,
<b>“</b>I’d like to meet him.” <b>Lea </b><b>heard </b>Sharlene say as soon as she entered the ward.
Lea was delighted. <b>“</b>Alright<b>, </b><b>I’ll </b>go get him now.”
“<b>No</b>, don’t… Sharlene said in a <b>panic </b>and tidied her <b>hair</b>. “I… Is this okay?”
Lea chuckled and came forward to help Sharlene stand <b>in </b>front of the mirror. “Let me <b>help </b><b>you </b>dress <b>up</b><b>.” </b>

She had brought a lot of clothes for Sharlene. It <b>was </b>already spring, so Lea chose a light blue top and white wide–legged pants for her. Then, Lea tied Sharlene’s hair behind her head.
Lea <b>was </b>amazed to <b>see </b>the new Sharlene in the mirror.
Sharlene was beautiful, the eye–catching kind. After dressing up, her gorgeousness reappeared.
Lea could tell what a good–looker Sharlene was when she was young and not diagnosed as a lunatic. Sharlene was an all–rounded genius.
Lea seemed to see from Sharlene that era where geniuses gathered and <b>were </b>in their prime, pushing the world to develop.
“Sharlene, you’re so beautiful, do you know that? Your son looks like you,” said Lea.
Ivan’s stunning eyes were inherited from Sharlene.
Sharlene whirled back around and looked <i>at </i>Lea. “I know. You–you’re Jacqueline. You’re Jacqueline!”
Sharlene suddenly hugged Lea and cried bitterly.
Lea <b>was </b>shocked. ‘Do I look like Jacqueline?‘ she wondered.
They had not found anything about Jacqueline. She only existed in the memories of these few people.
Lea was at a loss for a while beforeforting Sharlene again. Sharlene finally calmed down.
Lea then went out and called Ivan in.
Ivan had been waiting outside. In fact, whenever Lea came to see Sharlene recently, he would follow.
When he heard Sharlene was willing to see him, Ivan immediately tidied his clothes.
He was wearing a white shirt and a beige knitted vest. His hair had also been cut short. He looked decent and younger<b>, </b>like a big child.
Ivan <b>had </b>thought of many things to talk to Sharlene about but forgot them all when he entered and saw Sharlene.
“Mom-” He lunged for Sharlene.
Sharlene <b>was </b>stunned. She opened her arms and embraced her child.
The mother and son hugged each other and cried.
<b>Lea </b>looked <b>at </b>the door for a moment before turning around and leaving. She gently closed the door.
About an hour <bter</b><b>, </b>Ivan came out of the ward. His <b>eyes </b><b>were </b>red from crying, but he wore a warm smile, like <b>a </b>child who had <b>just </b>reunited with <b>his </b>mother.
<b>“</b><b>Ivan</b><b>, </b>I’m <b>sorry</b>,” Lea said <b>earnestly </b>with reddened eyes.
Since she took <b>Sharlene </b>out of the mental hospital<b>, </b>she had wanted to apologize to Ivan.
<b>separation </b>from his mother. He would not have been <b>assassinated</b>,
If <b>it </b><b>were </b>not <b>for </b><b>Lea</b>, <b>perhaps </b><b>Ivan </b>would not <b>have </b>had to experience the sepat changed his <b>appearance</b><b>, </b>and lived in the <b>dark</b>.
In short<b>, </b>everything that <b>had </b>happened to <b>Ivan </b><b>was </b><b>rted </b>to her<b>. </b>
<b>Ivan </b>was confounded. It took him <b>a </b>moment <b>to </b><b>react</b><b>. </b>
<b>Lea </b><b>had </b>always been rude to him. It <b>was </b>too <b>surprising </b>for <b>Ivan </b>that Lea would
<b>apologize </b>
He shook his head. “<b>Lea</b><b>, </b>did you know<b>? </b>Some <b>people’s </b>fates <b>are </b>born intertwined, just like <b>yours </b>and mine. I’m the <b>one </b>who should thank you. If <b>you </b>hadn’t been so brilliant, <b>I’d </b>be <b>dead</b><b>, </b>and my mother would <b>never </b><b>have </b>been <b>rescued</b><b>.</b><b>” </b>
His words surprised <b>Lea</b>. <b>She </b><b>revealed </b>a smile<b>. </b>
The <b>current </b><b>Ivan </b>was different <b>from </b>the one he <b>had </b>been. <b>Ivan </b>was now polite and considerate<b>. </b>
