Marley looked at Rose and tried to smile. Although it was a little stiff, Rose felt his kindness.
"Marley, nice to meet you." Rose smiled softly, "I have come to see you many times with Bright and
spoken to you. He has told me a lot about you. We are happy to see you wake up today."
"Yes. Marley, take good care of your health and love yourself from now on, okay?" Bright held Marley's
hand tightly.
Marley had mixed feelings inside. But his eyes were gloomy. It seemed that he did not care about his
health at all.
Seeing Marley like this, Bright was unhappy, "Marley, I am here. Everything will be okay."
"Marley, Bright and I have a daughter. She is five years old. You have not met her. She's very cute.
We'll bring her to see you when she has the weekend off. In fact, she has come to see you while you
were sleeping and knows you are a great uncle. When you get better, Bright and I will take you home.
With Doris and us to talk to you, you will not be bored." Rose mentioned Doris to attract Marley's
attention. He had never seen Doris and might be interested in her.
Marley's eyes suddenly lit up with surprise. It could tell from his eyes that he wanted to meet Doris and
wanted to know what this lovely niece was like.
"Marley, do you want to see Doris?" Bright also felt Marley's thoughts, "I'll bring her to talk to you some
day."
Marley nodded slightly, but both Bright and Rose saw it.
It was a good thing that Marley wanted to see Doris. It meant he was still attached and wouldn't ignore
his health too much.
At that moment, there was a sound from the door of the ward. Bright and Rose turned around and saw
Francis and Stefan. Hallie did not come here.
This made Bright relaxed.
"Is Marley really awake?" Francis was a little apprehensive on the way. He was afraid he had heard
wrong.
"Dad, Marley is indeed awake." The one who answered him was Rose.
Rose came forward and helped Francis. He walked haltingly and came to sit down on the chair beside
the bed.
"Marley, you're finally awake. I have been looking forward to it for years. Today, I am happy to see you
wake up." Francis said with tears in his eyes, because they had waited too hard for this day.
Marley could only speak with his eyes.
Bright then said to Francis, "Dad, Marley is happy too."
"Good..." Francis nodded repeatedly, holding Marley's hand and patting it gently, "Marley, since you are
awake, take good care of your health in the future. I'm looking forward to climbing mountains with you."
Marley blinked gently twice to agree.
Francis was very excited and could not hold back his tears anymore. Tears fell down.
"Dad, we should be happy since Marley wakes up." Bright held Francis' shoulder lightly.
"Yes. I just can't help it. It's too hard for us to have him back." Francis had been doing business for
many years. But when he faced his sons, he would be soft no matter how strong he was.
"Dad, everything will be better and better in the future." Rose also took tissues to him.
Francis wiped his tears and did not want to worry Marley, "Marley, have a good rest."
"Marley, it's Stefan," Stefan also interjected, "Marley, Mom was going to come to see you too. But she
was sick. She'll see you when she's well. Please don't mind."
Marley's face changed for a moment when he heard Stefan mention his mother.
Bright said to Stefan, "Stefan, it is okay you come to see him instead of her."
Francis stayed with Marley for more than two hours before he left with Stefan.
Only Bright and Rose stayed with Marley in the ward. When the night went dark, they repeatedly told
the doctors and nurses to take care of Marley before leaving.
When they were back to Ginkgo Villa, Doris was already asleep.
Rose took a shower and talked to Nora on the phone, "Nora, you know what? Bright's brother is awake.
We're all very happy. Bright respects him the most. So, that's a relief for him. How are you doing?"
"I've been so busy that I can't think about anything." Nora was so tired that she fell asleep soon, so that
she didn't have time to think about people or things she shouldn't care about.
"How busy can you be as a pregnant woman?" Rose laughed at her.
"Nathan is such a scum. I'll definitely get rid of him for the people and put him in prison this time." Nora
gritted her teeth in hatred, "The more evidence the better. I really can't wait to see what his arrogant
face looks like when he cries."
"The Mills family is not a family to be trifled with. Be careful with yourself and the baby. Safety is the
most important thing." Rose reminded her. After all, it was not wise to go against the Mills family. Many
people were not brave enough to do such a thing.
"I know. I'm not a child anymore. I'll take care of myself." Nora reached out and touched her rounded
belly, "Rose, it feels so good to be a mother. The little life in my belly is so close to me. It is a feeling I
have thought I would never know in my life. Now I only want to give birth to the baby safely and take
good care of it."
"Once a woman becomes a mother, her child will come first. When the child is born, there will be more
for you to worry about." Rose also remembered how hard she was when she got pregnant.
She hid from everyone like a thief. No one could help her share the pressure of being pregnant and
having a baby. If it wasn't for the child in her belly, she didn't know how she could survive.
When Bright came out of the bathroom, he saw Rose leaning against the bed and holding her cell
phone. There were tears on her face.
"Why are you crying? Are you uncomfortable?" Bright walked to the bed and pressed his palm against
her forehead.
"No." Rose shook her head, "Nora said the baby would recognize me as a godmother after it was born.
I just suddenly think it's really hard for a woman to be pregnant and have a baby."
"Are you blaming me for not being with you when you were pregnant?" Bright was acute.
"No." Rose's eyes were slightly starry and clear, "I just feel sorry. But you and I were strangers at that
time. No one expected that we would be together in this lifetime."
"If you had known you would be my wife after all, you should not have run away." Bright's voice was
charming.
"So you are blaming me now?" Rose raised her eyebrows.
"If you were given a chance to have no regret, would you accept it?"
"What do you mean?" Time couldn't possibly start over.
"Let's give Doris a brother or sister. This time, I will be with you all the time and listen to you..." Bright's
eyes were deep. He approached and kissed on her lips.
Rose took the initiative to wrap his neck with her arms. He pressed down, and they lay on the soft bed.
It was a hazy and pleasant night.
