Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 499 Months To Live

Clenching her jaws tightly, tears began to slide down Cherise’s cheeks. “So you mean…”

“Your mother’s time is running out,” the doctor said, releasing a heavy sigh.

He lifted his hand, gently patting Cherise’s shoulder. “Make the most of the time you have left with her.”

“She chose not to bring her personal doctor along, fearing that you would discover her illness.”

From behind, Zachary took slow, deliberate steps towards her. “Aunty Charisa once told me that she wanted to spend the remaining time she had left to see if you were doing well,” he revealed softly.

“She couldn’t bear to get too close, fearing it would cause you pain in the end.”

“She never forced you to acknowledge her as a mother to prevent the heartbreak she knew would be inevitable.”

“She was scared that as soon as you developed an attachment, she would have to leave you.”

Zachary let out a faint sigh. “Cherise, don’t resent her for coming into your life so late.”

“Aunty Charisa never expected her body to fail her so soon.”

“She had hoped… hoped to wait until she saw you with your own family, leading a blissful life, before approaching you.”

“But now, it seems she’s run out of time.”

Hearing Zachary’s words, Cherise was inconsolable and started sobbing uncontrollably.
