The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 2355

Angeline’s heart became tighter listening to Roxie’s story about her childhood. It was the kind of numbing pain that pierced into her soul, heart, liver, and even her lungs.

Angeline held onto Roxie tightly as if she was holding a newborn baby. She pressed her weak head into her arms. Roxie’s tears were pouring like heavy rain that kept on flowing.

Angeline looked at Roxie, who was getting weaker and weaker because of her illness. She felt even more sorry for her. “You have to listen to Mommy, Roxie. You have to be strong and survive this hurdle. Then you’ll have endless happiness in the future.”

Roxie suddenly said softly, “I’d like to see them, Mommy.”

Angeline knew that Roxie was referring to her parents. Although she hated her heartless parents who had no sense of responsibility, it was still Roxie’s wish. Hence, Angeline said to Roxie, “Alright, sure. Mommy will look for them.”

After settling Roxie down, Angeline walked out with red eyes.

When Jay saw Angeline’s expression, he knew that she had just been done crying. He wiped her tears away in distress. After Roxie got hurt, Angeline’s heart was always on the brink of a breakdown. She would feel the same way toward any of her children.

Jay was deeply moved by Angeline’s great and boundless love, but he felt distressed over Angeline’s health. He tactfully persuaded Angeline by saying, “Leave Roxie’s matter to me, Angeline. You’re not in good health and shouldn’t be so emotional. Think about it, if your anxiety relapses and triggers your somatization disorder, who’ll take care of Roxie and the others? Before you show love to your children, you must first love yourself.”

Angeline plunged into Jay’s arms and sobbed uncontrollably. She said in a choked up manner, “Our Roxie lived such a terrible life in the past, darling.”

Jay said, “I know, I heard it all from out here. Don’t worry. I’ll find a way to look for Baby Zetty and she’ll know of a way to cure Roxie’s disease. I’ll make sure Roxie stands up again. She'll be happy and healthy for the rest of her life.”

With Jay’s solemn vow, Angeline’s pain from earlier was slightly more relieved.

Inside the ward, after listening to Jay and Angeline’s conversation, Roxie stopped crying and started laughing again.
