Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 1664 The Shaffer family’s Downfall

"Miss, it's too aggravating for you to be like this."

Luna, somewhat sad to see Mrs. Shaffer like this, raised her hand to wipe her tears.

But Mrs. Shaffer said contentedly, "Aggravating? Maybe. But now that I see her, I don't think it's a big deal. Now my life is coming to an end, but I can see her alive and can even anticipate her peaceful life afterward. I feel that God has been good to me. My bond with her was too short in this life, but hopefully, I can make it up to her in the next. Perhaps not having a mother like me would be a blessing to her."

Cara listened as if she knew the identity of the person in front of her. She tried to open her eyes to look at her mother, but unfortunately, she couldn't.

Mrs. Shaffer sat with Cara for a while. She knew that it was almost time, then kissed her forehead reluctantly and turned to leave.

It was the first time Cara had ever felt a kiss from her mother, and she couldn't help but feel her heart jolted. She hated how powerless she was now, and wondered if Mrs. Shaffer would return later.

Chad Shaffer had come to his senses outside. After all, he was a man. After talking to Morty for a while, he saw Mrs. Shaffer come out with red eyes. He slightly froze, then sighed and said, "Can I go in and see her?"

His attitude took Mrs. Shaffer by surprise.

"Of course you can. You're her grandfather."

Chad Shaffer gave a bitter smile and then walked in.

He looked at Cara on the bed and said with tears, "Cara, I'm sorry for you. I didn't know about you even in the earlier years. Now I know, but there is nothing more the Shaffer family can give you. I hope you won't blame me."

After saying that, he gently touched Cara's head and took out a piece of emerald from his pocket, and put it around Cara's neck.

"I went to the temple shortly before you were born and asked for this for you, hoping that it would keep you safe. Unfortunately, after you were born, I thought you were dead and I didn't give you this. Today I am finally putting it on you with my own hands. My child, you are strong. I know you have suffered too much, but you have pulled through. Of all the descendants of the Shaffer family, I think you are most like me. Blair said you might not make it, but I don't think so. You are my granddaughter. How could you not make it? Not to mention you're worried about Laurence, aren't you? I know all about you, but I have to tell you that if you keep lying down, Laurence could be in danger. So you must cheer up."

Cara's heart ached suddenly.
