Ethan Martinez stroked Gerry Peary's head, his expression full of doting affection. Such a young child, afflicted with such an illness; he must be heartbroken.
Looking at Shirley Grant's appearance, he sighed.
"Sister?" Ethan Martinez called out to Shirley Grant, but she didn't respond.
She was holding her mobile phone, her eyes blank.
Shirley Grant felt a deep sorrow in her heart. Why was this happening? Did Alan Morgan not like Gerry at all? Or was it because Gerry was her child that he disliked him? She knew all too well the hatred he harbored for her from the past. Such a heart-wrenching betrayal... he must despise her to death. That's why, even now, even when she pleaded for help, he ignored her. Perhaps Alan Morgan hadn't even bothered to look for her. Perhaps Alan Morgan wished she would just disappear. Whenever she thought of this, her whole body trembled, fear coursing through her. She didn't know how to face any of it.
