True Love Deserves a Second Chance

A single sentence made Joyce's heart suddenly tighten.

She knew this was Sebastian's second corneal surgery, and the matching requirements were already very high.

But she didn't expect it to be this high.

Seeing Joyce's pale face, Sebastian hugged her shoulders and gently comforted her, "Living donor transplants aren't that difficult. Nowadays, many people donate their organs before they die. Maybe one day I'll find a match."

Joyce shook her head with a smile, "I'm fine. Even if there's no suitable match, I don't care, as long as you're always here."

Seeing the two of them so sweet, Linda's face showed a trace of bitterness.

But it quickly disappeared.

"Mrs. Winters, I'll take him for the check-up now."

Joyce nodded lightly.

She held Paxon and waited outside the door.

Seeing Joyce's uneasy look, Paxon immediately climbed into her arms and softly comforted her, "Mom, don't worry. Dad will be fine. Even if he can't see, I can help you take care of him."

Hearing Paxon's words, Joyce kissed his forehead with a smile, "Sweetie, you're so good that it makes my heart ache."

Paxon's bright eyes blinked a few times, and he smiled with squinted eyes, "Because you protected me with your life, so I have to be good to you."

Joyce looked at him in surprise, "Who told you that?"

"Grandma. She said you once jumped into the sea alone to protect me and almost drowned. Mom, you risked your life to protect me, so I will protect you too."

Hearing these words, Joyce was moved.

All the past events of protecting Paxon flashed through her mind.

She had been repeatedly framed by Cordelia and Isabella, almost losing her life several times.noveldrama

Fortunately, after all the dangers, her child was still with her, and their family of three could still live happily together.

Thinking of this, Joyce hugged Paxon tightly.

She kissed his chubby cheek and said with a smile, "Good Paxon, we won't have any more disasters in the future, and Dad will get better."

Their affectionate interaction in the hallway made the man standing behind them tear up.

Darren watched them with a face full of tears.

Looking at Joyce's beautiful face, so much like her mother's, and Paxon's adorable appearance.

He longed to go over and tell Paxon, "I am your grandfather."

But he didn't have the face to approach them.

If he hadn't favored Isabella back then, Joyce wouldn't have suffered so much.

If he hadn't had Isabella released, Joyce wouldn't have jumped into the sea.

Joyce almost lost her child.

Thinking of this, Darren's tears flowed even more.

He kept murmuring, "Joyce, I'm sorry."

At this moment, Joyce's phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, she waved the phone at Paxon and said, "It's your uncle."

Hearing it was his uncle, Paxon immediately grabbed the phone and said, "I'll answer

it."

Then he pressed the answer button.

His childish voice instantly pierced Theodore's eardrum.

"Theodore, why are you calling my mom?"

Hearing this voice, Theodore's mood improved significantly, and he immediately smiled, "Nothing, I just missed you guys and wanted to call. Paxon, are you having fun?"

"Yes, but Mom is a bit sad. My dad's eyes are about to go blind, and she's very worried about him."

Theodore immediately stood up from his chair and asked urgently, "What's wrong with your dad's eyes? Why didn't I know?"

"Because he didn't want you to worry. His eyes are bad and he might not be able to see anything in the future. So, I won't compete with him for Mom. Let him look at her more while he still can."

Hearing this news, Theodore felt terrible.

He stood there, his fingers tightly gripping the phone.

He knew that with such severe injuries, Sebastian wouldn't be without aftereffects.

He was too naive to believe Sebastian's words.

He immediately asked, "Where are you now?"

"In a hospital in Snowpeakia. I'm with Dad for his eye check-up."

"Give the phone to your mom. I need to talk to her."

"Okay, but don't try to persuade her to divorce Dad. She loves him very much, and they will never be apart."

Theodore felt a sharp pain in his heart and immediately replied, "I'm not that kind of person, don't worry."

With his assurance, Paxon handed the phone to Joyce and said, "Mom, Uncle wants to talk to you. I'll go to the bathroom."

"Be careful."

"I know."

Paxon ran towards the bathroom.

As soon as he entered, he saw Darren hiding inside, wiping his tears.

Paxon looked up at him curiously, "Why are you crying?"

Hearing this voice, Darren was stunned.

Seeing Paxon's face, his heart felt like it was being stabbed.

This was the grandson he thought about day and night.

Every day in prison, he thought about this child.

He thought he was gone, but now he was so grown up and so sensible.

Darren squatted down and gently patted Paxon's head.

Choking up, he said, "I was thinking about my daughter and grandson."

Paxon blinked his bright eyes and asked, "If you miss them, why don't you go find them?"

Darren choked up, "Because I hurt them before and don't have the face to see them." "They are your family. Why did you hurt them?"

"Because I was confused and believed others' words, I accidentally hurt them. Paxon, I'm sorry."

Hearing Darren call his name, Paxon was surprised and widened his eyes.

"How do you know my name?"

Darren realized his slip and quickly said, "I heard your mom call you in the hallway earlier."

Paxon nodded a few times, "Oh, that's why. If you want to see your daughter and grandson, you should apologize to them. They will forgive you."

Hearing this, Darren wiped his tears and said, "If it were you, would you forgive me?"

Paxon immediately shook his head, "There's no 'if.' My grandpa is very good to me and Mom. He once got hurt and was in a coma for two years to save us. My grandpa would never do anything to hurt us."

Darren was deeply hurt by these words.

Benjamin had done everything a father and grandfather should do for Joyce and Paxon.

In Paxon's heart, Benjamin was his grandpa.

And he, the biological grandfather, was unknown to Paxon.

Thinking of this, Darren's heart ached unbearably.

Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at Paxon and asked, "Why are you and your

mom here?"

Paxon blinked a few times and said, "We're here for my dad's eye check-up. His eyes

are bad and he might go blind, but Mom and I will take care of him."

"I can't talk to you anymore. I need to go to the bathroom."

Paxon immediately ran to the urinal, pulled down his pants, and started peeing.

Darren stood there in shock.

Sebastian's eyes were going blind.

If he went blind, what would happen to Paxon and Joyce?

They had just started living a happy life, and now this?

Thinking of the suffering Joyce had endured and the prospect of her having to care for Sebastian for the rest of her life, Darren held his head and squatted down, crying bitterly.

When Paxon finished in the bathroom, Darren was still crying.

He immediately walked over, patted Darren's shoulder, and said, "Don't cry. If you miss

your daughter and grandson, go find them or do something to move them. Maybe

they will forgive you."

"I can't talk to you anymore. I need to see if my dad is out."

With that, he ran towards Joyce with his short legs.

Joyce was still talking to Theodore. Seeing Paxon running over, she immediately said, "I

have to go. Paxon is back."

Theodore immediately said, "Joyce, he's out."
