Chapter 929


    Kaylie wanted to see her son and two other grandchildren whom she had never met before.


    That day, when Kaylie stepped into the Youngblood residence, her heart was full of bitterness.


    In the past, Kaylie had tried every means to enter the Youngblood residence, but she could only


    secretly enter without Leonard’s knowledge.


    In order to enter the Youngblood residence, Kaylie had used Lucian’s feelings as a bargaining chip.


    However, she had underestimated Leonard’s cruelty that she had hurt Lucian and herself.


    “Lucian will forgive you. If he really loves you so much, he won’t let you suffer.” Connor gently


    hugged Kaylie.


    When Connor first met Kaylie, Kaylie’s right hamstring was torn and she was disfigured. Yet, in a


    peculiar twist, Connor found himself drawn to Kaylie.


    They had been married for 20 years. Kaylie had told Connor everything since the day he married


    her, but he had still insisted on marrying her.


    Connor knew that Kaylie had always had two people in her heart whom she felt sorry for, one was


    her dead husband and the other was her son.


    However, Kaylie had never said who his husband and son were.


    It was not until this time they came to Strico that Kaylie told Connor that her husband was Lucian


    and her son was Jonathan!


    “We’ll go back when your leg is cured this time. No matter how bad you feel, don’t show it in front of


    Jonathan. I want you to be safe and sound. Do you understand?” Connor said.


    Kaylie looked at Connor who had been with her for 20 years with tears in her eyes. “I’m sorry,


    Connor. I’m sorry to have you worry about me so much. If Jonathan really hates me, I’m willing to


    bear it all. I won’t drag you down with me.”


    “We are husband and wife. You’re being a stranger if you say that. As long as we don’t say it, they


    won’t know. Look, Jonathan met you before and didn’t recognize you. Once your leg surgery is


    done, we will go back to Lofbury and nevere back to Strico,” Connor said.


    The secret would always be a secret.


    At night, Rosalie told Jonathan about bringing Connor and Kaylie to the memorial hall. “Will you be


    unhappy if I let Mr. and Mrs. Smuckler pay respect to your father and grandfather in the memorial


    hall?”


    “They are your mentors. Why would I be unhappy?” Jonathan said. “But why did you take them


    there?” “I was going to take them around the house for a walk after lunch, but we happened to pass


    by the memorial hall. Mrs. Smuckler said that she wanted to pay respect to my father-inw,”


    Rosalie replied. Jonathan frowned slightly. “Mrs. Smuckler said that?”


    “Yeah. Her eyes were red when she lit the candles. Butter she felt a little unwell, so I arranged for


    the driver to send them back to the hotel first.”


    “Mrs. Smuckler sure is emotional that her eyes will turn red when she lights a candle,” Jonathan


    said thoughtfully.


    “She probably thinks it’s a pity that your father died young.” Rosalie sighed. “Speaking of which,


    Mrs. Smuckler has had a rough time. Today, I discovered that her difficulty in walking is due not only


    to the joint injury from an ident but also to a past incident where the hamstring in her leg was


    torn.” Jonathan’s body suddenly stiffened. “Her hamstring was torn?”


    “Yes. Mr. Sabatini said it was because she hadn’t been treated well at that time, so walking became


    more and more difficult as she grew older,” Rosalie exined.


    As Rosalie said that, she saw the grim look on Jonathan’s face. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling


    unwell?” “I…” Jonathan took a deep breath and rubbed his forehead. “You may go to sleep first. I


    suddenly remembered I’ve got some business to take care of. I’ll deal with it in the study.”


    Then Jonathan left the room and hurried to the study.


    09:47


    After walking into the study, Jonathan closed the door abruptly and leaned against it.


    The conversation with Kurt in the detention center shed through Jonathan’s mind. At that time,


    Kurt had mentioned one thing. “By the way, Mr. Youngblood, haven’t you been looking for your


    mother? Let me give you some clues. After your father died, your grandfather once found your


    mother and asked someone to tear the tendons of one of her legs. Your grandfather intended to


    cripple your motherpletely, but unfortunately, your mother escaped…”


    “The tendons of one leg… Could it be a coincidence?” Jonathan wondered. “Besides, Mrs.


    Smuckler ispletely different from my mother as I remembered. But… anyway, I have to check it


    out! Only by investigating it can I feel at ease!”


    Walking to the desk, Jonathan took out his phone and dialed Carlos’s number. “Carlos, I want you to


    help me find someone. I need to know all that she has been through. Also…”


    When the call ended, Jonathan looked down at his chest through his shirt. There was a scar. Even


    after so many years, the scar was still there.


    It was left by his mother.


    If possible, Jonathan didn’t want Kaylie to be his mother. Because if she was, it would lead to a bad


    situation when the time came.


    However, no matter what, Jonathan still had to find out the answer. He had once resolved to find the


    woman who had abandoned him and Lucian and then make her pay for what she had done.


    After Lillian stayed in the hospital for four days, she was finally discharged.

    Her baby was safe for now, but ording to the doctor, it would be better for Lillian to stay in bed


    more often during the first three months. She would also have to take progesterone shots every day


    at amunity health center.


    After being discharged from the hospital, Lillian went back to her office and applied for a long leave.


    The director called Lillian into the office and asked, “Are you pregnant?”


    “Yeah, I’m, but the fetus is unstable. The doctor asked me to stay in bed for the first three months as


    much as possible,” Lillian replied. “I’m sorry. I know that my pregnancy has caused trouble to the


    institute.”


    There were limited positions in a small architectural design institute like theirs. If Lillian wanted to


    take a long vacation, it was inevitable that her colleagues would have to share her work or they


    would have to hire another employee. However, if they recruited another employee, the new one


    would be ced in an awkward spot when Lillian returned.


    “I’ll find a way to deal with the work at your hand, Lillian. You are an old employee of the institute,


    and I won’t make things difficult for you. You can take a long vacation, but there are some tasks that


    you must handle. You need toplete them at home,” the director said.
