Chapter 317
However, he was right about one thing. After I woke up, I felt significantly better. Despite vomiting out
so much blood, I was actually more energetic. When I walked, I was not as weak as before.
For some reason, the house started leaking after the rain. While Jenny went to get someone to fix it, I
was bored. Hence, I wheeled myself out and wandered around aimlessly. Before Jenny left, she had
reminded me sternly that I should not venture outside casually. If I had to leave, I must bring Lucas
along.
However, I was not a child. If so many blind people could live independently, I could too. When Jenny
noticed my nonchnt look, she directly summoned Lucas over. I spread my arms out to Lucas
helplessly. “That’s what happens when my friend’s even more worried than I am.”
“Just like my servants.” Lucas pointed at his bodyguards and servants behind him. “Three of them need
to follow me, or I’m not allowed toe out.”
I burst outughing. Now that I was feeling more energetic, my mood was better too. “Let’s visit the
school. I miss those kids.”
“I’m thinking of the same thing too. I brought a kite because the sea breeze’s pretty strong today. I’ll
teach them how to fly a kite. You should join us!”
I did not know how many kites Lucas instructed his servants to buy. However, when the shop owner
heard them speak, he was so excited that his voice trembled. He patted his chest and promised that
not only would he deliver the kites to them, but he would also teach the kids.
The kids cheered as they ran into the shop and rushed out with a kite in hand. Those who did not
manage to get their hands on the big kites took the smaller kites meant for toddlers.
Sitting on the beach and listening to their joyful voices, I smiled. Darius really knew how to find a
suitable ce. When I said that I wanted a peaceful and tranquil ce, he found this small town for me.
It was the best fit for me.
Since I could not see, I sat in the wheelchair and listened intently. The kids were running on the beach,
while the breeze blew gently. Even though I could not see it, I could still imagine the scene of the kites
flying in the sky.

An older boy walked over and shoved a kite into my hands. “Ma’am, my kite can fly the highest. It’s
extremely pretty too. I named it ‘Blessings,’ and I’m giving it to you now.”
Blessings… What a great name!
These kids probably did not understand the troubles of not being able to see. However, instead of
anything bad about my eyes, they kept trying to think of ways to cheer me up. They’re such beautiful
angels!
Upon that thought, I subconsciously ced my hand on my stomach. I used to be pregnant with
Christopher’s baby. It’s a pity that my baby is gone…
While holding the kite in a fluster, I wheeled my wheelchair forward carefully, afraid that I would drop
the kite. But I was not paying much attention, so I identally let go of the strings. I quickly bent down
to pick them up. However, at that moment, someone walked over, picked the strings up, and stuffed it
into my hand.
“Thank you!” Although I could not see, I could hear that it was an adult’s heavy footsteps. Thinking that
he was Lucas’ bodyguard, I thanked him and asked, “Did the kite drop?”
The person did not answer, and I could feel an intense gaze staring at me. Feeling awkward, I ignored
him and started fiddling around with the strings clumsily. Suddenly, the man beside me snatched the
strings and ran around me for a while. After he stopped, he returned the strings to me.
I guessed that he helped me because the kite was about to fall. Hence, I said gratefully, “Thank you.
This is a blessing that a kid gave me.”
Despite that, the man remained quiet and stood beside me without saying anything. After a while, the
wind became stronger, and the footsteps around me became messier. Just as I was feeling dizzy and
quite chilly from the cold wind, a warm coat draped around me. Someone buttoned the coat for me
meticulously, and I felt warm again.
Thinking that he was Lucas, I smiled and said, “Lucas, you’re sick like me, but why are you still draping
a coat around me like a gentleman? Wear it quickly! If you start coughing again, your bodyguards will
kill me.”
