Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 246 Do You Still Love Me?

“Look at these eyes. They’re exactly the same as Christopher’s when he was a kid!” Winnie gently tapped Rowan’s face as she gazed at him lovingly. A long-lost smile appeared on her face.

Since Zachary’s incident, Winnie seldom smiled. Her health condition had also gotten unstable.

The three siblings of the Solace family did not dare to mention Yuliana’s kidnapping to Winnie after it happened. It was not until a while ago, when Rowan’s condition in the hospital had stabilized, that they told the old woman about the child’s birth.

However, they did not dare to bring up the kidnapping. They feared that Winnie would get worried, so they only said it was a little hiccup.

“Roe is so cute!”

Beside Winnie, Zofia stared at Rowan in the old lady’s arms. She reached out to touch the baby’s hand with her fingers, but Rowan grabbed her fingers instead.

“He’s grabbing my hand. She waved to Alex next to her.

Refusing to back down, Alex stretched out a finger to touch Rowan’s other hand. Rowan grabbed that too. Alex lifted his chin toward Zofia and said, “He’s grabbing my hand too!”

Winnie looked at the three of them and smiled. “You are siblings now. You have to protect your little brother from now on, okay?”

Alex and Zofia rarely agreed on anything, yet they nodded at the same time.

Winnie was quite happy that day. She rarely got to chat with everyone. However, Rowan was far too young. After a little bit of fun, he started to feel sleepy. In the end, Winnie allowed the maternity matron, Kylie, to coax the baby to sleep.

As soon as the kid left, the smile on the old lady’s face disappeared again, as her thoughts drifted to Zachary. She sat for a while longer before deciding to go upstairs.

Annabelle accompanied Winnie upstairs.

Joyce said, “Mom has been like this for some time. She would ask to be taken to Dad’s room during mealtimes. She can only eat as she watches over Dad.”
