Chapter 218
After hanging up the phone, immediately booked the most recent flight to California. I couldn‘t wait to g
et there and find out how Tiffany Abel was able to even touch a single hair on
Lance.
I went to my parents‘ room and knocked on their door.
“Jennie, is that you?” mother‘s voice sounded from the inside of the room.
“Yes, may I speak to both of you?“| asked politely
“Of course! Come in, this is your home, you can come and go whenever you like!” father said.
I pushed opened their door and entered. Father was smoking a cigar on
Lexi Mason his huge chair by the window, while mother was reading a book on their bed.
“Dear, what‘s wrong?” mother asked, once she saw my solemn face.
“I will be flying to California later…. sorry for not telling you guys, but it‘s an emergency.” I said, my
voice weak.
“Lance?” father asked, raising an eyebrow at me.
“Yea, he‘s in a coma.” I explained.
Father and
mother are both very understanding people, they hated Lance for making my life a living hell, but they a
lso started to realize that both me and Lance have feelings for each other, so they agreed to let me go.
“When will you be back?” father asked again.
“I don‘t know. I want to investigate this accident and make the person pay
Lexi Mason for what she did!” I said, my hands balled into fists.
Mother sighed and
nodded. Father also looked worried. “Please be careful there, if you ever need any help, just call us oka
y? We‘ll put everything down and
come to you. Your mother and I finally found you and have a daughter again, we don‘t
want anything to happen to you too!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
My eyes got teary; I was touched. “Alright.” I nodded, sniffing my nose.
And with that, I left their room and started packing my stuff to head to California. I asked the family driv
er to send me to the airport. After processing all my documents in the airport, boarded the plane. The w
hole time I was in the plane, I couldn‘t even sit still. I kept fiddling around, looking around. I was nervou
s, I wanted to reach
Lexi Mason California as soon as possible.
But I didn‘t know how to react or what to say when I see Lance and Lexi.
After many hours, I finally
reached. The moment I stepped out of the plane, Timmediately dialled Lizzy‘s number.
“Jennie?” Lizzy picked up.
“Yes, I‘m in California now, I‘m heading to the hospital immediately. Are you there now?” I asked.
“Yes, yes. You can come now. Oh right, Lexi and Leo are here too. We are in the VIP ward 1.” Lizzy sai
d, before hanging up.
I called a cab and headed straight to Lance.
When I reached, I literally ran towards the VIP ward. But I stopped when I was in front of the ward one
door. I was scared. What do I say when I see them?
Just when I was about to push the door open, Leo pulled the door from inside and we came
face to face.
“Jennie!” Leo called out.
“Hey, brother. How have you been?” | greeted him awkwardly.
Leo smiled and said, “Fine, have been quite busy, plus I have been taking care of Lexi. I offered to,
because I know Lance would be furious if he found out nobody took care of her. He doesn‘t really trust
the nannies too much when he‘s not around.” Leo said.
Inodded and thanked him, “Thanks for taking care of our daughter. I‘m a failed mother…….”
“Please don‘t say that, come in.” Leo said, pulling me into the room.
Lizzy and Lexi were both on the sofa. Lizzy was reading a book to Lexi.
My dear Lexi, she was around
years old now, she looked even prettier! She looked up at me when I entered the room and she called
out, “Mommy!”
Tears started to blur my vision the moment she
called me mommy. I couldn‘t hold it in, I missed her so much! “Lexi! Come, let mommy take a look at yo
u!” I said, sniffing my nose.
Lexi got up and slowly walked towards me. She was taller, and
bigger. I squatted down and held her in my arms, hugging her tightly. I missed her so, so much! “Momm
y, where have you been? Daddy left me alone with Leo, and you left me
too.” Lexi said with her baby voice.
The bitterness in my heart started to spread. This poor child must have thought that both
her parents abandoned her! “No, baby. Daddy is here, he‘s just taking a long rest.
Mommy is here too now, mommy won‘t leave you anymore.” I said. From the corner of my eyes, I saw
Leo‘s eyes widened when I said I won‘t leave again.
