President's Substitute Wife

Her makeup was stained with her tears. It was only one night, but she looked a lot older.

She looked at us and asked, “how’s Dad?”

“The operation is successful.” Sean replied, but he was cold.

Michelle breathed a sigh of relief and said, “thank God.”

With that, she turned and wanted to leave.

Sean looked at her and said, “Auntie, you don’t have to blame yourself. Ward took advantage of you.”

“I’m stupid.” Michelle turned her back to us and looked down. “I knew it was impossible for such a handsome, excellent and young man to love me, but I thought there was little possibility.”

She didn’t go on and left with her head down.

I was a little worried. “Will something happen to your aunt?”

“Don’t worry. She’s good at self-regulation.” He patted me on the shoulder. “Take a break. You stayed up all night.”

“It’s okay. I’m not tired. Let’s visit Grandpa Jessop first.” I insisted.

Sean didn’t force me.

James did get out of danger, but he couldn’t even get out of bed.

After his health improved, we visited him.

Sean told James about Ward. He sighed. “His grandfather was stubborn. I didn’t expect them to be the same.”

“It’s all over.” Sean said.

James was watching Sean. There was noise behind us. He looked behind us and shouted, “Ming.”

I turned my head, too.

Ming was standing at the door.
