Hearing Nicole entrusting Lucas to her, Cara nodded quickly.
“Madam, don’t worry, I will take good care of Lucas.”
“Take care of yourself, too. By the way, Mr. Morty and I have already agreed on letting you visit Mrs.
Shaffer soon.”
Cara was stunned by this.
Luna was also very excited.
“Mrs. Green, is this true?”
“It’s true, but maybe this is the last time that you can meet each other, Cara, you have to be mentally
prepared.”
Nicole knows Cara’s desire for family affection, but this is so serious that there cannot be any
exception. It was a favor to let Cara meet her.
Cara knew it too. She nodded, feeling a little down.
Because of the impact of this incident, Nicole’s parting mood eased a little.
Cara was sent out in a special car in the afternoon, accompanied by Luna.
Actually, they didn’t need to bring Luna with them, but Cara knows Luna’s feelings for Mrs. Shaffer. She
wished to give them a chance to say farewell.
When she sat in the reception room seeing Mrs. Shaffer came out in a prison uniform. Even though it
was the first time they met, Cara’s eyes were full of tears.
Mrs. Shaffer’s eyes were calm at first, but she became a little excited when she saw Cara.
“You shouldn’t come to this kind of place.”
“Mom…”
Cara had thought she couldn’t call out this word. But the moment she saw Mrs. Shaffer, she just yelled
that word out naturally, not knowing it’s because of family relationship in her heart or it’s something else
that she couldn’t even tell. Not only did she yell out the word, but also burst into tears directly.
Mrs. Shaffer was crying for Cara’s calling.
“Yeah! Mom’s here!”
She never thought that she could hear her daughter call her mother before her death.
Mrs. Shaffer wanted to hug Cara, but she knew she couldn’t.
Through the glass, Mrs. Shaffer stretched out her hand to portray Cara’s face, engraving the face over
and over in her heart.
“Mom, are you okay inside?”
Cara had heard of many things in prison and she was very worried about it.
Mrs. Shaffer smiled and said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. It’s just that there will be no relatives by
your side in the future. You must take good care of yourself. I don’t want you to be rich, as long as you
are safe and well. It’s all my fault. I was forced to send you away back then. Don’t blame me for this
please.”
“No! I don’t blame you for this!”
Cara knew that if Mrs. Shaffer hadn’t sent her away secretly back then, she might not be able to
survive, nor to know Nicole and the others, let alone have the current life.
She was just regretful, for that she had no chance to provide for Mrs. Shaffer in this life.
The mother and daughter would be separated just as soon as they got to know each other. And it’s
likely that they be parted forever. This felt really heartbreaking.
Hearing that Cara didn’t hate her, Mrs. Shaffer suddenly laughed.
“My daughter is the kindest child. But unfortunately, you were born in the wrong family. I heard that you
already have a boyfriend, right? Is his name Laurence? Mom didn’t have the chance to get to know
him. Luna knew that I still have some deposits in the Citibank in the name of Luna. You can regard it as
the dowry that I gave you. This is the last thing I can give you.”
Cara felt extremely uncomfortable.
“Mom, I don’t need it. Actually, I just want to be with you if I can.”
Cara knew this was her daydream, but she couldn’t help but keep thinking about it.
How could Mrs. Shaffer not be thinking about it?
But there was no turning back once you put your feet on the wrong track.
She looked at Cara sadly, wishing to stop the time.
Luna burst into tears.
Mrs. Shaffer’s accusation had not yet been established. But judging from her protection of Cody, her
sentence would not be too easy. There was even a slight possibility that she was sentenced to death.
“My lady!”
Luna cried and looked at Mrs. Shaffer.
Her whole life was ruined by Cody.
Cara made way for Luna and went outside alone.
The cold wind slapped her in the face. She was down but not full of remorse.
She had always known that the laws could not tolerate anyone’s blasphemy.
Luna came out a few minutes later, with red and swollen eyes. Although she tried her best to endure
the sadness when she saw Cara, everyone could tell that she was heartbroken.
Cara patted Luna’s shoulder gently, and whispered, “Luna, my mother is in a calm mood. She has been
a good start and end in her life.”
“My young lady, I just feel extremely uncomfortable in my heart. I have followed lady since I was a girl,
until now, I...”
Luna could not help herself but burst into tears, and Cara could only comfort her.
It was already night when the two came back. Cara went back to the room exhausted, only to see
Laurence, who should had been impossible to shown up, sitting on her bed and flipping through the
photos.
She was stunned, thinking she had hallucinations.
Laurence couldn’t help laughing when he saw how childish she was.
“Why? Don’t you recognize me anymore?”
“Why… Why are you here? Didn’t Nicole say that it will take a few more days?”
Cara was happy. She ran over quickly, and plunged directly into Laurence’s arms.
The warm feeling made her believe that all of this was real.
Laurence hugged her gently, and said softly, “I miss you, so I came here non-stop.”
Cara’s face flushed suddenly.
When did this man learn all these sweet words?
But she missed him too.
Smelling the fragrance on Laurence, Cara eventually felt relieved and calmed down.
“I went to see my mother just now. If I had known you were coming, I would have taken you with me
and let my mum see what her son-in-law looks like.”
“There will be a chance.”
Laurence’s words made Cara’s mood down again.
“There will be no chance. I heard that the result of the first trial will be revealed tomorrow, and my
mother may...”
She couldn’t say anything about this anymore.
Laurence knows Cara’s desire for family affection. Now she finally found her family, but she did not
expect the parting would be so soon.
He didn’t know how to comfort Cara. He could only hug her tightly and use his body to warm her up.
Cara also knew that she shouldn’t be so decadent. After hugging for a while, she smiled and said, “I
heard Mrs. Green say that you plan to join the army in Capital City?”
“Um.”
Laurence nodded with gentleness in his eyes.
“So, I’m going to propose to you. Cara, would you marry me and be my, Laurence’s, wife?”
The proposal came too suddenly, and Cara was completely stunned.
“What? You are not willing to marry me?”
“No! I’m willing to marry you!”
Cara knew that if someone still wanted to marry her at this moment, then that one must be really loving
her.
No flowers, no rings, nothing, but Laurence’s love was enough for her.
What she wanted was not material.
Hearing Cara’s promise, Laurence laughed out loud like a devil who’s going to ruin the whole country.
With a Bang in the sky, something seemed to explode in the sky. Cara was taken aback by that
sound.
