Plus, he would indeed have a long, long time to recuperate his body, but he would never be free again.
When Niamh followed Kendrick out of the hospital, Mr. and Mrs. Jones could not help but thank them. The reporters were super confused.
Mrs. Jones was the one who broke the news that she was going to come to the hospital to accuse Kendrick, so why were they thanking him now?
Furthermore, all the doubts seemed to be in that old letter.
However, this letter was destroyed by Mr. Jones not long after.
He did not want people with ulterior motives to find this letter and neither did he want his father’s resting soul to be disturbed.
After stepping out of the hospital door, Niamh felt much better.
The sun poured over her face and her whole body was warm. The dim and dark unhappiness disappeared like mists.
“Kendrick, I want to buy a bunch of flowers to take home.” She smiled and suggested.
Of course, Kendrick would not refuse. Therefore, he drove Niamh to a nearby flower shop.
As it was difficult to find a parking space that was nearby, Niamh asked Kendrick to wait on the side of the road. She would return after buying the flowers.
Niamh quickly got out of the car and walked into the flower shop. The dazzling array of flowers came into view and Niamh felt even more wonderful.
She walked straight to the baby’s breath and picked a powder blue bouquet.
This was her baby girl’s favorite flower.
She had not forgotten.
Niamh chose the flowers and paid for them. Suddenly, the familiar voice of a woman came from behind her.
“Hello, I want a bunch of yellow roses.”
Yellow roses?
Niamh suddenly thought of the woman with two children holding a bunch of yellow roses whom she saw on the side of the road that day.
However, what surprised her at the moment was the woman’s voice.
It was clearly Cathy’s voice!
Niamh turned around suddenly and looked for the owner of the voice. Coincidentally, she caught a young woman holding a bunch of yellow roses walking toward the door of the flower shop.
This thin figure belonged to the woman she saw at the door of the flower shop that day.
‘Is this Cathy?’
This thought appeared in Niamh’s head while she was in disbelief.
“Cathy!”
She yelled toward the woman’s back, but the woman seemed to turn a deaf ear and walked directly out of the door of the shop.
Niamh turned around and tried to catch up. The salesperson in the shop hurriedly called out to her, “Madam, you forgot your flowers.”
“Thank you!” Niamh took the packaged baby’s breath and hurried out of the flower shop.
Kendrick had been looking in the direction of the shop. At this moment, he happened to receive a call from home. When he raised his eyes and looked over, he saw Niamh running out of the flower shop in a hurry.
His heartstrings were tightened as he got out of the car to run toward Niamh without hesitation.
“Nia, what’s wrong?”
Niamh glanced at both sides of the flower shop. “Kendrick, did you see a young woman coming out of the shop before me?”
Kendrick frowned and tried to recall. “My mom called me just now to ask me something, so I wasn’t paying attention. What’s wrong?”
“I think I saw Cathy.”
“Cathy?”
“Yeah!” Niamh nodded solemnly. “She bought a bunch of yellow roses and left.”
“Nia, are you really sure that it’s Cathy?”
“I didn’t see her face so I’m not a hundred percent sure. However, that voice really belongs to Cathy!” Niamh was extremely sure. She looked around again, and suddenly, her eyes landed on a woman who was on the crosswalk.
“There!”
Niamh pointed to the sidewalk not far away.
Kendrick followed Niamh’s gaze and saw a young woman holding a bouquet of yellow roses.
The height of the woman was indeed similar to Cathy’s, but the woman was very thin and petite. Just like Niamh, she had short hair which fell to her ears. It was a hairstyle that looked clean and refreshing. Her hair was making it difficult for them to see the features of her side profile.
Cathy had also saved Kendrick before, so Kendrick was quite concerned about whether Cathy was still alive.
He held Niamh’s hand tightly and hurried over in the direction where the woman was heading. The red light opposite the road came on, so Niamh and Kendrick had to stop and wait.
While waiting, Niamh and Kendrick saw a little boy and a little girl walking to the woman from one side.
The two children appeared about a year old and looked very smart and cute. She could tell that they were a pair of twins at a glance because the facial features of the two children looked almost exactly the same.
Although she could not hear what they were talking about, Niamh could read the boy and the girl’s lips. They were calling the young woman their mommy.
Niamh froze for a moment. ‘If this is Cathy, are these her children?
‘If this is Cathy, then the father of these two children…’
Just as Niamh was pondering silently, a familiar figure of a man suddenly appeared in her vision. He was walking toward the young woman.
“Kendrick, look at who it is.”
Kendrick raised his eyes and looked over when he heard Niamh’s reminder, then a look of surprise appeared on his face.
“Adam?”
“Yes, it’s Adam!”
Niamh was even more convinced that she had not made a mistake.
“The woman’s voice that I heard on the phone that night was the same as Cathy’s, and now Adam appears next to this woman. What is the relationship between them? If it is Cathy, why is she with Adam?”
Her heartbeat sped up a bit and she could not wait to see the face of this young woman.
At this time, the light turned green. Niamh and Kendrick quickened their pace and walked over, but coincidentally, Adam took the woman and two children into a car nearby.
It was too late when the two of them caught up.
However, it was also because of this that Niamh felt even more suspicious.
This woman with Adam was very likely to be Cathy.
Although Niamh did not know what Cathy experienced afterward, it would be exceedingly fortunate as long as she was still alive.
After returning to Waldburg Manor, Niamh and Kendrick did not tell Felipe about the incident. They were worried about giving Felipe false hope before they were certain.
After knowing that Jackson and Lillian were doing their homework in the room at this moment, Niamh hid the bouquet of baby’s breath behind her back and walked into the room.
“Jack, Lily.”
Jackson and Lillian paused at the same time when they heard that. They raised their eyes to see that Niamh was coming and then the children blinked as if they were in a daze. It was because Niamh was always not home a while ago, and when she finally came back, she was very cold with them. Her indifferent and unfamiliar attitude toward the siblings before had puzzled them.
Niamh knew that she had neglected the children when she was not right in the head. She showed a loving and gentle smile while reaching out to the two children. “Jack, Lily, what’s the matter? Don’t you remember your mother?”
Jackson and Lillian returned to their senses. The two of them put down the pens in their hands and ran toward Niamh at the same time with their short and chubby legs.
“Mommy!” Jackson hugged Niamh’s beautiful legs before raising his clear and big eyes at her. “Mom, do you recognize me now?”
“I’m sorry, Jack. Mommy was sick before and didn’t mean to ignore you.” Niamh stroked the little guy’s cheek. Seeing Lillian smiling and silently watching her, she handed the bouquet to her. “Lily, this is for you.”
The little girl stretched out her hand to take Niamh’s bouquet. She wanted to thank her, but it seemed that something got stuck in her throat. The only word she could say now was ‘Daddy’.
Niamh squatted and pulled the two children into her arms while feeling heartbroken.
“Jack, Lily, don’t be mad at me. I’ll never be apart from you again.”
Her gentle promise and the sense of steadfastness while holding her children warmed up her heart.
When Felipe passed by the door of the room, he happened to see this scene. He could not help but think of the past few years after looking at Lillian’s cute little face.
