Chapter 198
Lucinda first answered her birth mother''s question, then whispered to Fiona, "My birth mom is not in
a good state of mind. She always mistakes my real brother for my dad andpletely forgets about
her own son."
In a desperate attempt to be remembered by his mother, Keith even changed his name to Ethan
Blue.
Lucinda felt a pang of sadness. For all these years, she was treated like a princess in the Moore
family, while her birth mother and brother had a hard time.
Fiona looked at Janice with a deep sense of pain in her heart.
As a mother, she could totally understand Janice''s pain.
Looking at Keith, Fiona''s heart ached as well.
A child who was not remembered by his own mother, for all these years, despite having his mother
by his side, was unable to enjoy her love.
"Let''s all go in," Savannah suggested.
"Lucy," Janice was very dependent on Lucinda. She was holding a doll with one hand and tightly
grasping Lucinda''s arm with the other, fearing Lucinda would leave her.
She hadn''t been out for a long time; her usualpany was the servants at home, all of whom
looked down on her.
Over time, Janice became afraid of strangers and crowded ces.
"Mum, don''t be scared. Let''s go inside and talk." Lucindaforted her.
Janice nodded, perhaps feeling that her reaction would lead to misunderstandings, so she
awkwardly smiled at everyone.
Everyone went into the house.
The Moores were a bit nervous, especially the elderly.
Stefan noticed their difort and naturally sat next to Madison.
The elderly were familiar with Stefan; after all, he was Lucinda''s husband, and Stefan and Ike
Moore were college ssmates. Even though they weren''t close friends due to personality
differences, Stefan would visit the Moores every year.
The Moores had a good impression of him.
But then, after he graduated and got busy taking over thepany and dealing with various issues,
he didn''t have time to visit the Moores until he stabilized thepany and had time to pursue
Lucinda.
Before he could start his pursuit, Lucinda, pressured by her mother to get married, took the initiative
to rent him as a boyfriend, and he tricked her into bing his wife.
Stefan didn''t say it, but when Lucinda proposed to rent him as a boyfriend, he was thrilled.
He had done so much behind the scenes, just wanting to make her his wife, and she willingly fell
into his trap.
Honestly, heughed every time he thought of this.
After the servants served coffee, desserts, and fruits, Stefan kindly introduced which desserts were
delicious and asked the elderly to try them.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.
With him by their side, talking, the elderly soon rxed and became natural.
Lucinda gave Stefan a look of appreciation and gratitude.
She was caught up with Janice, needed to take care of Janice''s emotions, and couldn''t ignore
Fiona.
At this moment, her adoptive parents were on her left, and her birth mom and birth brother were on
her right.
The Andersons waited until both families'' emotions were stable, and then Savannah lovingly looked
at Stefan.
Stefan detailed the whole thing.
Only then did the Andersons and Moores understand the truth.
While sympathizing with Janice, they were also amazed at the magic of blood rtions.
When Lucinda was only half a year old, she was stolen from her home by her father''s pursuer. Even
though the Blues immediately investigated and pursued Elisa after discovering this, they only found
Elisa''s body in the end, not baby Lucinda Blue.
Mother and daughter had been separated for 23 years, during which they hadn''t met. But Lucinda
had dreamed of her birth mother twice recently, which was the magic of blood ties.
So, how did Vincent Moore find Lucinda?
Vincent recalled the scene at that time and said, "My biological daughter was also just half a year
old at that time, but she had neurostoma. Even though we were willing to do everything to treat
her, the situation was not optimistic. The doctor told me that our daughter was critically ill and that I
should be prepared."
"I was in great pain, but I had to face reality. On that day, after the doctor told me about my
daughter''s condition, I didn''t return to the ward but walked out of the hospital in a daze. I didn''t know
where to go, so I took a bus and let it take me anywhere."
"When I passed by the cemetery, I thought of the doctor''s words that I needed to prepare a funeral
for my daughter. So I got off the bus near the cemetery and walked to the cemetery, nning to
choose a burial site for my daughter. It was very quiet near the cemetery, with few people."
"As I was walking, I heard a child crying. At first, I thought I was hallucinating, because how could
there be a child near the cemetery? But the cry was too real, so I followed the sound and really saw
a child in a ditch by the roadside. She was also half a year old, crawling around in the ditch, crying
with her head up."
"I immediately jumped into the ditch and picked her up. After I picked her up, she kept grabbing my
clothes and stuffing them into her mouth. I guessed she must be starving. She was dressed nicely,
which I couldn''t afford for my child at that time. She was also wearing a gold ne."
"The ne was engraved with ''Lucy''. I didn''t know who had dumped her in the ditch; if no one
had found her, she would have died. My heart ached for this little girl, so I took her home. I didn''t
know if anyone saw me at the time."
"I was just back at the bus stop with her when I received a call from my wife, telling me that my
daughter''s life was hanging by a thread. I quickly ran towards the hospital with the little girl in my
arms. As soon as I got back to my daughter, she passed away."
As they talked about the past, everyone in the Moore family shed tears.
This was the first time Lucinda found out how she was picked up.
She was brought here by the real Lucinda; she consoled the real Lucinda''s parents for their loss;
she became their daughter in ce of the real Lucinda.
Fiona couldn''t help but sob uncontrobly on her husband''s shoulder.
For the past 23 years, although she treated Lucinda as her own daughter, she always knew that
Lucinda could not rece the daughter she lost. The pain of losing a daughter still hurts when she
thinks about it.
"Mom!" Lucinda hugged Fiona tearfully.
Fiona cried for a while, realized they were at the Anderson family, her daughter''s husband''s home,
and tried to hold back her pain. She wiped her tears on her husband''s shoulder, gently patted
Lucinda''s hand, and said with a trembling voice, "I''m okay; it''s been 23 years; I''ve made it through."
She took over Vincent''s words and said, "Only a mother who has lost a child can know what that
feels like. It really feels like the end of the world; it''s extremely painful. My daughter was also a
lovely baby before she fell ill; every time I see Lucy, it''s like seeing my daughter. I couldn''t resist her
charm, and so we brought Lucy home, told the world that Lucy was cured, and let her take our
daughter''s ce."
