Chapter 1453
"No, that's not true!" Renee said in panic, worried that Adie would investigate her where a bouts."I'm safe, and
nothing has happened to me in years. So, don't worry, take care of Abby, and listen to Margaret. Understand?"
Before Renee could end the call, Adie said bluntly, "No, Mommy, you've gotten into a lot of trouble in the past few
years, and you still get into trouble. I think something's happened to you, and that's why you don't want to video call
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtus... How about this, Mommy? Turn your camera on for a second and let me see you; I'll believe you if there's really
nothing wrong."
"Umm, well..." Renee stammered, then blurted out, "What are you saying, Adie? I'm hiking with my friend, and the
signal is bad. I'll hang up first!" After that, she quickly ended the call, feeling guilty.
"You're so lucky, Ms. Everheart! Your children are cute and smart, and they love you so much!" Lisa remarked,
looking wistful.
"I'm lucky, but they're not..." Renee sighed miserably and explained, "They've been having a difficult and frightening
life with me. They've suffered a lot because I'm not qualified to be a mother."
"No, you can't say that. I think they're lucky to have a kind and accomplished mother like you. You might think it's
difficult for them, but I think they're happy being with you."
Although Lisa was young, she loved children, and was jealous of Renee's happy little family. However, their family
had suffered a great misfortune, and the children would be heartbroken once they realized their mother was now
blind.

"I can leave?" Renee turned to Lisa and asked in surprise.
"Of course! You've donated your eyes to our master, so we'll do anything you want. If you want to leave, you can,
but... I suggest you wait for a month until your injuries are healed to avoid any infection after the surgery. Plus, Mr.
Jovan hasn't woken up yet, and I'm sure he'll want to thank you in person. It'll be a waste if you leave now."
"No, we can't let him know that I was the one who donated the eyes to him." Renee sounded firm. "I know him-he
gave up his eyes to Stefan for me, and if he learns that I've given up my eyes for him, I don't think he'll accept it
that easily. All of you have to keep it from him."
"But your sacrifice will go to waste then!" Lisa protested. Eloise had warned Lisa not to say things like this, but Lisa
felt that the situation was unfair for Renee. Renee had sacrificed so much, but she wouldn't even get a thank you!
