Chapter 457 - 457 An Eye For An Eye457 An Eye For An Eye
Selma Payne’s POV:
“What do you mean... The odds are against him?”
I felt like I had fallen into an ice cave.
“I have to be honest with you... The existing medical records and standards may not be of any help toward His Highness’s condition. This means... it means...” he stammered.
At this moment, my parents arrived. They were at a ribbon-cutting event at a nursing home funded by the royal family, and now they had rushed back after cutting short their trip.
Craig told my parents about my son’s condition, and my mother’s legs immediately gave out as she fell to the ground.
My father’s expression did not look good either. He said seriously, “I allow you to use any method or medicine as long as you can ensure the safety of the little wolf.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis hands trembled slightly, obviously not as calm as they seemed.
Craig could only nod in agreement, even though everyone could see the ominous feeling in his nervous expression.
My son was transferred from the warm nursery to the ICU. We watched the medical staff working in and out of the window, but the little wolf’s condition deteriorated. My mother had already stopped crying. She understood that as a grandmother, she had to be strong. But now, I wanted to cry again when I saw the little wolf’s heart rate and blood oxygen decreasing.
“Selma, my child.” My mother embraced me, and my tears could no longer be held back. “He will get better. Don’t worry. We will do everything to ensure his safety.”
My father pulled my mother and me into his arms, silently comforting us.
But fate had abandoned us once again.
My son’s condition had stabilized for now, but this did not mean he was safe. On the contrary, his condition was still on the bottom line, and if he were not careful, he would be consigned to eternal damnation.
My father did not even care about the little wolf’s secret and called the best experts in the Lycan pack for a consultation, but it was to no avail. Just like Craig had said, the current medical methods could not help my son.
The werewolf grandmasters also researched the little wolf’s condition, but this time, neither medicine nor sorcery was of any use, as if...
It was as if the heavens were determined to take back this child, cutting off all the paths he had left.
‘Fate, why are you so cruel to me?
‘After my lover, you’re going to take away my child too?’
I practically stayed in the accompanying room outside of the ICU. Dorothy and Emma took turns accompanying me. My mother stayed by my side all the time. Even my father put off all the government affairs that he could and stayed in this small accompanying room to pray for a miracle.
We spent three days anxiously. In these three days, I threw everything to the back of my mind. Other than my son, I couldn’t think about anything else.
On the third day, Master Kevin came to me. Only then I remembered I had to deal with a child I had never met.
I immediately connected these two things. Could this be retribution? Was it because I intended to murder someone else’s child, so my child was the first to suffer the backlash of the evil consequences?
Thus, I didn’t wait for Master Kevin to state his intentions and said directly, “We won’t do anything. That child, that child of the Evaria Family, let him live.”
Master Kevin did not say anything. He asked obediently, “As you wish, Your Highness. So do we need to take him away? To an orphanage or somewhere else?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIndeed, I could keep this child alive, but I must make him disappear.
However, which place could guarantee absolute safety, an orphanage or a foreign place? The Evaria Family might come after hearing the news, so I must ensure this child was completely free from their influence.
However, I couldn’t think of a better idea with my chaotic and exhausted mind. Sending the child away was the only and safest way.
Suddenly, I saw my child, my dying wolf cub.
“If I want the pregnant woman and the child to disappear together, can your friend do anything?” I asked Master Kevin, “Fake their deaths or run away from home. Do anything. Make the pregnant woman and her child disappear from the Evaria Family’s sight, and then... Bring them to me.”
Yes, bring them to me.
Why did I have to send that child away? I just needed to ensure he disappeared from the Evaria Family’s world. Was there anywhere safer and more reassuring than being by my side?
Besides...
I always had a secret and couldn’t show it to anyone. Perhaps my evil thoughts toward this child caused my child to suffer retribution. Since that was the case, I must double the compensation to him and let him grow up without any worries and live a wealthy life. Call me a hypocrite or a superstitious person, but as a mother, I was willing to do anything to ensure my child’s safety.
Master Kevin didn’t expect me to make such a decision, but he didn’t say anything. He only said, “If that’s the case, my friend will have a falling out with the Evaria Family...”
