Chapter 222


    Chapter 222 Having Her Apany Mom


    After Annabelle returned from Yarwood, she did not stay long in Juxshire and departed to Southeast


    Region with Yvette. She went to several countries within half a month and only learned about Zachary’s


    ident when she returned to the country.


    She had been living in the Sce residence for several days.


    Initially, she only wanted to go over to visit Zachary, but when she saw Winnie was worried sick and


    couldn’t eat or sleep well, she could not rest assured and nned to stay in the Sce residence to


    apany Winnie for a few days.


    Since Zachary returned from the hospital, Winnie talked to him every afternoon. Even if he could not


    respond, she still insisted on chatting with him.


    While apanying Winnie, Annabelle shared with Zachary the exciting things she encountered


    during her


    trips.


    What the senior needed was nothing more thanpanionship and confiding.


    It was understandable for Winnie to adore Annabelle since thetter could chat with the seniors


    patiently, teaching them what was trending for the youngsters nowadays, and she was very good at


    cheering them up. Naturally, she was likable.


    Winnie’s mood improved significantly with Annabelle apanying her recently.


    When Yuliana arrived, Joyce picked her up and said, “The atmosphere at home has been dull since


    Dad’s ident. Even Alex has been much quieter now. The house only became a little livelier with


    Annabelle around.”


    Before going over, Yuliana had contacted Joyce, and thetter told her about Annabelle staying in the


    Sce residence.


    Although Joyce’s job was not as busy as Kendrick’s and La’s, she still had routine work to deal with


    every day and couldn’t stay with Winnie at all times. Besides, Joyce had a different temperament from


    Annabelle and was not good at making Winnie happy like Annabelle.


    Having Annabelle apany Winnie made Joyce feel at ease.


    Yuliana knew what Joyce meant.


    Joyce was afraid that Yuliana might feel ufortable when she saw Annabelle and thus specifically


    exined the situation to her.


    Yuliana was no saint and could not bring herself to not mind at all.


    However, she was not selfish to the extent she wanted everyone rted to Christopher to stay away


    from Annabelle as well.


    Moreover, the Sce family and Christopher did owe Annabelle great kindness, and Annabelle was


    considered to have grown up in the Sce residence. Naturally, her rtionship with the Sce family


    was unique. As such, Yuliana was rtively calm when she heard Annabelle had been in the Sce


    residence recently.


    She smiled and said, “It’s good to have her apanying Mom.”


    Upon hearing that, Joyce looked at Yuliana and said, “Yuliana, I really don’t know whether to say you’re


    generous or stupid.”


    In truth, Joyce had also experienced simr things before.


    When she had just married Kendrick, there were always women who had affairs with Kendrick before


    marriage arriving in the Sce residence. At that time, Winnie was quite dissatisfied with her and felt


    she could barely hold up the position and the temperament as the matriarch of the Sce family.


    Winnie was particrly fond of the daughters of prestigious families. One of them had even been with


    Kendrick for some time.


    It was because of her experience that Joyce understood that feeling. She couldn’t help but feel sorrier


    for Yuliana


    Not to mention, Annabelle was different from the daughters of prestigious families.


    Yuliana pursed her lips and smiled. “Joyce, I’m neither generous nor stupid. Instead, I know there are


    things that I can’t change. Unless I break things off with Christopher, I have to ept Annabelle’s


    existence.”


    She looked at Joyce and said, “But I don’t want to break things off with Christopher.” Even so, she did


    not want to put up with it, making herself feel wronged.


    Therefore, the best way was to adjust her emotions and make herself not care too much about others.


    All she wanted was Christopher. She couldn’t care less about anything else as long as Annabelle did


    not cross the boundary.


    Momentarily stunned, Joyce thought about Yuliana’s words carefully. After a moment of silence, she


    suddenly said with a smile, “Yuliana, it’s Christopher’s blessing to have you as his wife.”


    Yuliana followed Joyce to visit Zachary,


    Right after the door opened, they heard Annabelle whispering to Winnie. Her light and amusing tone


    was very contagious. Even Winnie was smiling.

    Annabelle heard the noise and nced at the door. Seeing Joyce and Yulianaing in, she swept


    her gaze across Joyce and met Yuliana’s eyes.


    “Mom, Yuliana is here,” Joyce said with a smile.


    Winnie only noticed someoneing into the room when she heard Joyce’s voice. She turned around


    and smiled gently at Yuliana, reaching out her hand at her. “You are here.”


    Yuliana stepped forward to hold Winnie’s hand. She took a look at Zachary in the bed and asked,


    “How’s Dad these days?”


    “As usual.” Winnie heaved a sigh.


    Yuliana said, “Give it some time. I’ve been searching online for some cases ofa after brain injury


    recently. In fact, there are still many cases of recovery. Dad is getting older, and his self-repair ability


    will be slower. It will take some time.”


    “Really?” Winnie’s eyes lit up instantly.


    Yuliana nodded. “Yes. It’s true.”


    She had read a lot of information and cases and had previously talked to the doctor in the hospital.


    There was still a possibility for Zachary to wake up. It was just that the probability was low, ording to


    Zachary’s test result at that time.


    Doctors were very cautious in that regard. Without great confidence, they dared not give patients and


    their families too much hope.


    Winnie was overwhelmed by Yuliana’s words and held Yuliana’s hand tightly with an excited smile. She


    then looked at Zachary in the bed and said, “Zachary, did you hear that? You do have a chance to


    wake up. Come on, don’t leave me alone!”


    Annabelle had mixed feelings when she saw the disappointment on Winnie’s face vanish and be


    reced by confidence.


    She had been trying every means to cheer Winnie up in the past few days. Although Winnie’s mood


    had indeed improved, it was only temporary. She would fall into despair again whenever she saw


    Zachary lying quietly in bed.


    Yet, Yuliana had rekindled Winnie’s confidence with just a few words.


    Annabelle sat for a while and went out


    Yuliana chatted with Winnie for a while in the room and then shared with thetter the cases she had


    found online and also some nursing knowledge.


    It took Yuliana a lot of time and effort to gather the information.


    Since some of them were foreign cases written in Uprian, Yuliana was worried that Winnie might not be


    able to understand them, so she tranted them into Clusian. She would check the information online


    and make a note if she did not understand the terminology.


    Winnie naturally paid attention and listened carefully since it was rted to Zachary.


    Yuliana was not sure if it would work. Seeing Kendrick hire a family doctor and a nurse while she


    herself was not contributing anything, she hoped the materials she found would be helpful.


    After Yuliana was done exining, Winnie was very grateful to her. She patted the back of Yuliana’s


    hand. “Yuliana, thank you!”


    Yuliana said with a smile, “Well, I can’t help with anything besides looking up some information.”
