The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2482

Helen felt regret and anger in her heart. 'Why? Why did I let myself be blinded and invest my whole being into such a family? If... If I had treated Melody a bit better, maybe I wouldn't have fallen sick and left uncared for.'

Ethan and Wendy avoided Helen like the plague, afraid of catching even a trace of her illness.

"Me?" Melody breathed a sigh of relief, buoyed by the presence of Lucas waiting outside, which lifted her spirits. "I'm doing fine now, although you might not want to hear that. But ever since leaving the Sanders', every day of my life has been better than before."

Helen could discern Melody's state. If she had to pay for her mistakes in the first half of her life, she hoped her only daughter would have a smooth second half. She wished Melody would never return to the Sanders' again.

It was a pity she did not have the right or the strength to tell that to Melody anymore. Helen closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face again.

Melody sighed. She found the whole thing ironic.

"I'm going to ask you a few questions. If the answer is yes, blink your eyes twice. If it's no, blink once," said Melody.

Helen opened her eyes and looked at her daughter.

"Have they arranged for someone to take care of you?" she asked.

Helen blinked twice.

'Someone's taking care of her? If someone's taking care of her, why aren't they in this room now? Don't they know her condition requires round-the-clock care?!' thought Melody.

"Has Ethan and Wendy come to see you?"

This question made Helen feel even more heartbroken. She blinked once, unable to hold back her tears.

Originally, Melody thought she would feel a sense of satisfaction seeing this. Helen had devoted her entire life to that man and his daughter, but when she needed help, no one was there to take care of her.

"Alright... Stop crying. It's not good

for you. I have other things to take care of, so I can't stay here for long As for the rest, I'll arrange for your to be transferred to another hospital and replace someone to take care of you. The environment here is too poor."

Helen also understood deep down that Ethan and Wendy did not care about her at all. Otherwise, why would they have sent her to such a run-down hospital? The whole atmosphere in the hospital was one of deadness, so how could she possibly be cured?

She clearly heard the doctor say that

she still had a chance to recover, as

long as she was transferred to a good hospital and received daily massage and physiotherapy.

However, Ethan just waved his hand and left the hospital. He did not even spare her a glance.

After learning how heartless her husband could be, Helen basically felt like she was waiting to die in this hospital. She had no hope for her

future. However, the moment e

saw her own daughter, a glimmer of hope surged in her heart because she knew better than anyone that Melody was someone with a soft heart.

People used to think she was tough, but only those who got to know her realized that her heart was softer than jelly. Unfortunately, she realized this fact too late and guilt riddled her heart when she came face to face with Melody once more.

She felt ashamed for wanting Melody to arrange for her future care. After all, she never once showed her any motherly love in all the years they had lived together. Yet, in the end, only she was there to take care of her.

"I... I..."
