Sweet Sorrow

Nicole was shocked and her face turned pale immediately.

"Mom..." Standing aside and sensing the weird atmosphere, Jim was frightened and held back what he was going to say.

"Jim, go get some hot water." Judy said in a harsher tone.

Not daring to disobey her order, Jim agreed obediently. Then he carried the thermos bottle and walked out of the ward, looking back repeatedly.

As soon as he went out, Judy cast a sharp glance at Nicole.

Nicole felt guilty, but she didn't dare to offend Judy. She had to move slowly to his mother's bed. After a while, she whispered, "Mom, I think it's not bad for me to divorce Austin. I felt much easier."

"Do you really think so?"

"Yes." Nicole was afraid that Judy would worry about her, so she quickly said, "Mom, I don't think it's a bad idea to get divorced. It's true. I live much more freely now, and I have more time to take care of you. I'm very happy."

Judy kept silent for a while and sighed with a hint of helplessness and sadness on her face. "Nicole, be honest with me. Did you get divorced because of me?"

Nicole was shocked. She hurriedly held Judy's hands and said, "of course not, mom, how could you think in this way? Before your surgery, I divorced Austin, not because of you."

"Then... Then why? " Judy didn't believe it.

Nicole bit her lips and didn't know how to tell her mother.

If she told her mother that she got divorced because Austin had an affair, she would be furious. But if she didn't tell the truth, her mother wouldn't believe that the divorce had nothing to do with her illness.

People who got sick were always sensitive, not to mention that their mother was afraid of being her burden.
