"My girl." Lumia ultimately recognized her daughter after quite some time and called out to her long-lost daughter. Roxie wheeled her wheelchair over in front of Lumia a s this would allow her mother to see her face more clearly.
The old woman had already burst into tears. Her dry pupils gushed out with tears. She was tongue-tied but still managed to say the words, "My girl. You're my little girl."Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Roxie's face was still cold because in her memory, this woman had never been kind to her.
She looked at her coldly and asked, "Have you been well?"
After asking this sentence, Roxie felt that it was a silly question.
Lumia clearly looked like she had led a very tough life.
However, she unexpectedly nodded again and again before replying, "I've been doing well, my girl. There's no need to worry about me."
Roxie was slightly stunned.
Even so, Roxie sneered at her, "Why should I worry about you?"
The old woman was stunned for a moment, but the loss in her eyes disappeared in a flash. It was as if she was humbly trying to please Roxie. "Yes, yes, you're right. There's no need for you to be worried for me. As long as you're well, I'm well."
While she was talking, she suddenly burst into tears.
It seemed difficult to conceal her sorrow. "It's all my fault. I was useless and I couldn't protect you so I lost you. You must have had a hard time all these years. Whenever I thought about you being out there all alone with no one to care for you and love you, I felt nothing but sadness."
Roxie said, "When I was by your side, no one loved me and cared for me either, right? Besides hitting and scolding me, and asking me to beg for food, how else did you provide for me?"
The old woman covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.
"I truly regret it. I've felt nothing but guilt over the years. I regret giving birth to you because I'm not a good mother. I won't ask for your forgiveness, my girl.
I just wish that you'll live a good life and forget all of those unhappy memories in the past. If you kept holding onto grudges, it won't be good for your body."
Roxie looked at the woman's flushed red eyes. They were blood-shot, cloudy, and dull. They seemed like a pair of eyes that had been crying for far too long.
She felt inexplicably restless in her heart.
"I've earned a lot of money now, so I can treat your sickness. I can also give you food and clothing. Tell me, how much do you want? For the sake of giving birth to me, I'll try my best to meet your requirements."
When Charles heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

However, the old woman shook her head desperately. "My life's already ruined, and don't expect to get rich. You should keep your money, my girl. Life is not smooth-sailing. Remember, you need to have some money saved up so when things go wrong, you can take it out for emergencies."
Roxie fell into deep silence.
Then, she told the maid, "Place her in the bedroom next to mine."
The maid nodded and said, "Yes."

The old woman felt overwhelmed by this and said There's no need, my girl. I'm sick. Me staying here with, you will only cause trouble for you. Just send me back. Now that I've seen you, I have no more regrets in this life. I'd be happy even if
die."
Roxie replied, "You can stay here. Let's find a time for you to remarry my father."
The old woman objected again and again. "No. I'm not remarrying him. I hate him! If it weren't for him, would I have been so miserable?"
The old woman was still brooding over something. "When you disappeared, I begged him to look for you but he only cared about his own life. He has never thought of you as his own daughter."
Then, Roxie turned her cold eyes toward Charles.
