Chapter 1117 My Mom's Kidney

After that, she turned towards Cherise, seated in the first row behind the altar, and murmured, "Thank you." With Alexis's age and

family background... That could be the only time. The child she was pregnant with during the accident that she deliberately

caused. She had wanted to perish with her child.

When she regained consciousness, she was convinced the child had died. Terrified that others would think she still cared for

Lennon, she consciously masked her genuine emotions, insisting she felt no attachment to the child, maintaining that it didn't

matter that the child was gone. Perhaps... only Cherise saw beyond her facade. Otherwise... How else could she have covertly

rescued the child...

With tears brimming in her eyes, Cherise bit her lip, fixing her gaze upon Lucy, unable to voice a single word. They were

inseparable allies, bonded after experiencing many obstacles together. With just a glance from Lucy, Cherise realized that Lucy

knew everything. No further dialogue was needed. She brushed away a tear, offering Lucy a reassuring smile, and whispered,

"You've got this."

Lucy's lips curved into a tight smile as she nodded, "Thanks." Swiveling to face Lennon, she began, "Mr. Belcourt, there's

something | need to address. Regardless of whether this child is ours, you don't have the authority to approachand dictate that

this son can't call my future husband 'Dad."

"What makes you think you have the right to connect with my child or disrupt my wedding? Is it because my mother's kidney was

transplanted in you? Or is it because your sister confined me, subjectingto daily abuse after | becpregnant with your

child?"

"Or perhaps it's because your family pushedand my father to a breaking point, forcing us out of Adania? Or maybe it's because

your sister hitwith a car, causing the accident that leftunable to conceive again?"

"Lucy!" Colin's voice sliced through the air, his brows knitting together in a deep furrow as he stood steadfast by her side. He

couldn't bear toprehend the extent of Lucy's suffering at the hands of this man. Moving swiftly, he positioned himself

protectively in front of Lucy,manding, "That's enough, Lucy!" He knew all too well the difficulty of laying bare one's wounds in

such a public forum.

"Lennon, speak up!" Lucy's laughter rang out bitterly, causing Lennon to flinch. "Don't tellyou're oblivious to what the Belcourt

family secretly did to me! You've been playing your role well, pretending you're unaware, oblivious, and ignorant!" Lucy's laughter

was tinged with bitterness. "Lennon Belcourt, why do you insist on pestering me? Tell me!" She was utterly drained.

In truth, she had always envied Cherise. Despite the once deep-seated animosity between Cherise and Damien, Damien was a

man of integrity who put Cherise first. But what about Lennon? He owed everything to the kindness of the Belcourt family. Violet

had saved his life, and the Belcourts had been his benefactors. Thus, he could only offer her hollowfort as he watched her

endure injustice.

"Lennon, if it wasn't for your kidney, | wouldn't still be caught up in this mess with you." Tears trickled down her cheeks silently, her

gaze fixed on the ceiling as she let out a bitter, incredulous laugh. "Can't you see? | only ever had feelings for you and stayed with

you because of my mom's kidney."

The hall descended into a pin-drop silence.

Lennon closed his eyes, sinking to his knees on the floor with a thud. "Lucy." He opened his eyes again, the pain evident in his

gaze. "I didn't pretend to be ignorant about my family's actions. | just... | have my own battles to fight."
