Yes, Christma said as she pulled out the emerald pendant she had been wearing around her neck.

After seeing the exquisite, glittering imperial emerald, Sharon gradually calmed down. “You have to keep that safe I can’t stress enough how important it is.”

“I know. You’ve said it’s a family heirloom, so don’t worry. I’ll guard it with my life,” Christina reassured.

However, just as she was about to probe further, a nurse entered the ward and interrupted their chat. “It’s time for the patient to rest. Please leave.”

“Rest well, Mom,” Christina said, gently patting Sharon’s hand. “I’ll bring the two little ones along on the

next visit.”

Knowing she’d see her adorable grandchildren soon, Sharon couldn’t help but smile. “All right, then.”

When Christina stepped out of the ward, her gaze immediately fell upon the tall and lanky Nathaniel standing by the window.

Christina approached the man and held his arm, appreciating how she could feel his toned muscles even through his clothes. “Let’s head home.”

Before long, the couple was back in the car and on their way home. “How was the chat with your mother?” Nathaniel asked softly.

With that, she looked up at Nathaniel. “I have this nagging feeling that Mom’s keeping something from me. Are you also doing the same?”

The man flinched a little as his fingers instinctively stiffened. “No.”

Just like that, his simple one-word reply dispelled all of Christina’s worries.

“You head home first. I have a cocktail party later, so I’ll attend it for a while before returning.” Nathaniel added.
