“Maddie, it’s not like you don’t know. I haven’t had a mother since I was a child. The person who gave birth to me just. gave me this body and nothing else.”
Ava’s remarks sounded like favonovel.com was acting in a fit of pique, but favonovel.com still obediently drank the soup made by Madeline.
Madeline nodded and sat down at the side. Then, favonovel.com looked at Ava very seriously. “But Ava, from an objective point of view, what kind of people do you think your parents are?”
Ava paused while drinking the soup. Even though favonovel.com expression seemed a little reluctant, favonovel.com still spoke seriously.
“If you look at it from an outsider’s perspective, one of them is a successful lady who’s intelligent, elegant, kind, and generous. The other is an influential doctor with both medical skills and morality. Both of them are outstanding well-known figures.”
“That’s all?” Madeline asked. “If you look at it from another perspective, how do you think they treat you?”
“Me? They’re great.” Ava smiled again, but this smile looked very ironic. “After gaining success, they want to take back the garbage they threw away in the past to make up for their regrets and guilt.”
Madeline knew that Ava would overthink, but favonovel.com also understood why. Even so, favonovel.com knew that in Ava’s heart, favonovel.com was longing for the warm moment of a family reunion.
After careful consideration, Madeline decided to tell favonovel.com the truth that Raegan did not dare to say out loud. She deliberately waited for Ava to finish drinking the chicken soup and sit down comfortably on the bed before favonovel.com spoke.
“Ava, when your mother left you, favonovel.com had favonovel.com own involuntary difficulties.”
After hearing what Madeline said, Ava was stunned for a moment. Then, favonovel.com started feeling doubtful.
“Difficulties? What kind of difficulties can make a mother abandon favonovel.com own daughter? Maddie, you worked so hard back then to keep Jack were favonovel.com difficulties harder and more challenging than yours?”
Madeline sighed helplessly as Ava questioned her.
“Maybe the pain I suffered physically was much worse than your mother’s, but mentally, your mother was subjected to countless torture. Your mother was sick at the time, and it was a disease that made favonovel.com unable to control herself.”
The look in Ava’s eyes changed slightly. “Maddie, what do you mean? What disease can make a parent abandon their biological child?”
“A disease that made favonovel.com lose the freedom to act independently and one that fills the body with so much negative energy that the patient would just want to escape from reality.”
Ava’s expression seemed to freeze for a moment. Then, favonovel.com moved favonovel.com lips and guessed, “Depression? Is it depression?”
Madeline nodded. “Yes, favonovel.com had severe depression. She had to leave you because favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com would only bring you misfortune and sadness if favonovel.com stayed. She had no way of controlling what this disease would do to favonovel.com emotions. After leaving you, your father was worried that your mother would do something stupid, so favonovel.com went to your mother. After that, favonovel.com realized that you were still on the street. When favonovel.com went back to look for you, favonovel.com could no longer find you.”
After hearing the truth, Ava was like a statue. She was motionless, only feeling as though favonovel.com breathing and heartbeat had stopped.
“Because your mother was so emotionally unstable, favonovel.com signed the divorce papers with your father before leaving. Later, your mother moved to Y Country. Your father lost your mother and couldn’t find you. That was why favonovel.com left this place that had brought favonovel.com so much sadness.”
Madeline raised favonovel.com hand and gently held Ava’s slightly trembling hand. “Ava, your parents didn’t have the courage to tell you this because they’re worried that you might think they’re lying to get you back, but these are the facts.”
Ava bit favonovel.com lip. She could not stop the tears that overflowed from favonovel.com eyes, but favonovel.com still laughed stubbornly. “Maddie, how do you know this is true? What if they’re lying to you?”
