Lucas said, “It’s because Anya saved you back then that her body was damaged by the snake’s venom and lost the

ability to bear children forever! You should know without me telling you how much it would hurt physically and

psychologically for a girl to lose the chance to be a mother from a young age! Besides, it’s Anya’s dream to be a

mother since childhood! It’s because of you that she could never fulfill her dream! How could you be so indifferent

to her now?” xo.com fast update

Jeremy’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed and he said nothing.

What Lucas said was indeed the truth.

When he got injured 15 years ago, he was bitten by a venomous snake while he hid in a bush in a village to flee

from danger. As the venom spread, he was on the brink of death, and he lost his vision; so he could not save

himself.

He was saved by a girl who passed by. It was because she sucked the venom out of his wound that he managed to

live!

Later, the girl found him with the keepsake he left for her. It was only then he learn she was the Riveras’ second

daughter, Anya, who happened to be staying at the summer resort in the

countryside.

He also learned that because Anya did not manage to spit out all the venom in her mouth in time after saving him

that day, her body was damaged by the venom, and she lost the ability to bear children.

There was no way for him to make it up to Anya for the regret he caused her. Therefore, he was fulfilling all of her

requests and being at her beck and call all these years.

A month ago, Anya suddenly came to him in tears one day. She told him she saw one of her classmates was

married and pregnant when they met at the class reunion. She envied her very much, and she also wanted to be a

mother.

She said as long as she had a child, she would feel her life was very happy and complete, and she would not bother

him that often anymore in the future to avoid causing misunderstandings between him and Corinne.

Of course, Jeremy knew it was inappropriate, but he felt guilty. Because of that, he said yes to Anya after carefully

thinking over it for a few days.

Anya suggested that they go to Kecharia to adopt an orphan. Because only a poor country like Kecharia would not

need a marriage certificate and other complicated verifications for a couple to adopt a child.

She did not wish to tell her family as she was afraid they would stop her. She also did not trust

any other man. Therefore, she begged him to go with her as her boyfriend and help her adopt a child. She would

not trouble him with whatever came after that anymore.

It took them half a month from the time they departed to Kecharia to return after getting all the adoption

procedures done.

The child came down with a fever on the day they brought him back, so they took him to the hospital as soon as

their plane landed. Fortunately, it was no big deal.

That was also the day Corrine called him one last time when he was at the hospital before she ran off.

Thinking of the little rascal who went missing, Jeremy’s eyes became more and more bloodshot.

After Lucas said so many things, he saw that Jeremy still did not react at all. Feeling helpless, he sighed again. “Anya

has lost the ability to have children. This is not something you can fully make it up to her by helping her adopt a

child. Jeremy, Anya’s only wish in this life was to be with you. Only you can bring her happiness! Even though our

families have some residual animosity from generations ago, I’m willing to do my best to reconcile for Anya; so I

hope it’s the same for you as well!”

Jeremy regained his senses and looked at Lucas with an unfathomable gaze.

“Lucas, are you forgetting that I’m already a married man? I can’t marry again. Bigamy is illegal.”

Lucas was stunned, then he sneered.

“Married? You can’t mean your marriage to Corinne, right? To my knowledge, both of you have never been

married. The reason you brought her into your family initially was just to console your grandfather so he would go

through with the transplantation procedure.
