Chapter 506

Shannon quickly wiped her tears and wrapped her arm around her mother's before walking up the steps.

“I'm fine and doing well. I've led a peaceful life all this while. There weren't any killings, bloodshed, or gunfights. My days have been so peaceful that I have gradually forgotten what it was like to live like a lifeless puppet.”

Before Ivy could ask further, Holden shot a glance at her, signaling for her to stop pressing on for answers.

Ivy sighed softly before saying, “My health has deteriorated over the past few years. Otherwise, I would have looked for you personally. After almost six years of endless searching, your brother was still unable to find you. I thought you were already...”

The woman stopped short and immediately corrected herself. “What am I talking about? I take it back. You're standing in front of me right now. Seeing that you're safe and sound, there's really nothing more I can ask for.”

Shannon's expression brightened as the corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile. She was relieved to see her mother, and the gloomy air that was previously surrounding her seemed to have dissipated.

“Mother, I'm just grateful that you are still alive. By the way, you must have heard about Holden's kid, right?”

A shocked expression appeared on Ivy's face at once. Subconsciously, she looked toward her son and asked, “Is what your sister just said true?”

Holden smiled and replied, “He went out with his mom to visit her friend. They will be back in the afternoon. Please be patient and wait for a while.”

Ivy was ecstatic to hear that. However, her overexcitement had probably triggered her ailment, and the woman started coughing violently.

“Mother, are you okay?”
