You Hit My Heart
Chapter 524

“Let me think about it." Cecelia's long brow furrowed.

Charlotte had been with Cecelia for a while, and when she sawCecelia's hesitant expression, she was afraid that Cecelia would rejectJacqueline.

She stepped forward and took Cecelia's arm before she could open hermouth, "Mom, can you come into the room with me alone for amoment, I want to talk to you alone.”

Cecelia glanced at Charlotte and nodded her head in agreement.Charlotte looked back at Jacqueline with a wink, telling her that shewould figure out what to do next.

Jacqueline was silent, her brow furrowed. Now she could only dependon Charlotte to convince Cecelia.

Charlotte and Cecelia both walked into the bedroom on the first floor,and Charlotte casually locks the door behind her.

Cecelia turned around and just spoke, “Charlotte, what do you have tosay?"

To her surprise, Charlotte fell to her knees with a thud, and before shecould say anything, her tears flowed first.

"Mom." Charlotte's voice was hoarse and choked.

"What's wrong, Charlotte, why are you kneeling? Get up quickly."Cecelia hurriedly squatted down and helped Charlotte up.

"Mom, I know I'm sorry to the Heath family, and I know I shouldn't havemade this request. But mom, I really don't want to postpone myengagement. You know, it was so hard for me to be able to marry theman I love, and I have gone through a lot of ups and downs inbetween. Now that Luther has finally accepted me, I really ..." Shegently bit her lower lip.

After a pause, she said with a low sob, "Mom, I didn't expect mygrandfather to pass away suddenly. I am so sad, I miss him so much.Poor grandpa couldn't see me get married, but if he could be there, hewould be happy for me. But now, what should I do? Mom, I am soembarrassed. I don't know how to choose, oooh ..."

Cecelia sighed, how could she not understand her daughter's mind?"Charlotte, I can see what you're saying. Grandpa passed away, and noone could expect it. But according to the rules, it is not advisable tohave a wedding within three months after a funeral. I also know thatafter three months, your belly could be very big. Whether it's anengagement or a wedding, it would not look good. Hey, let me thinkabout it. This is something I have to discuss with your father as well."Charlotte heard that Cecelia wanted to discuss with Ralph, her heartscreamed. Ralph was never someone who would care about her loveor her reputation and for him, everything must be in the interests of thefamily first.

No, Cecelia must not ask Ralph. She must replace a way to get Cecelia tosay yes.

Her body went limp in Cecelia's arms, and with her usual trick, shesobbed with seemingly real emotion, "Mom, can you just pretend Ididn't say what I just said. I'm the one who asked too much. I deserveto die for thinking this way. My grandfather was the closest person tome, and he left me not long after I finally got a chance to stay with him.I, I... want to stay with grandpa ... I'm not getting engaged, oooh ..."She cried and covered her stomach, pretending to be in pain as sheslowly slid down Cecelia’s side.

Cecelia bent her head and saw beads of sweat on Charlotte'sforehead, her face pale, and she asked anxiously, "Charlotte, what'swrong with you?"

“I, I, my stomach hurts ..." Charlotte's teeth chattered, "Mom, the baby,my baby..."
