True Love Deserves a Second Chance

Joyce couldn't help but stop and look in Reginald's direction.

Reginald immediately nodded towards Joyce and called out, "Miss, you're here too."

"I'm here with Sebastian for his surgery. What brings you here? Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

Reginald hesitated a bit and said, "It's not me, it's Mr. Vale. He has some cataracts and came for a check-up."

Joyce had heard from Theodore that Darren lived in Snowpeakia.

She didn't think much of it, just responded lightly, and then turned to leave.

Reginald returned to the ward. Darren lay alone on the bed, his eyes wrapped in bandages.noveldrama

There were no family members around.

Reginald felt a pang in his heart, slowly walked to Darren's bedside, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Vale, I saw Joyce when I was getting the medicine. She asked why I was here, and I told her you had cataracts."

Darren calmly said, "You answered well. Don't let her know the truth."

"Mr. Vale, if you tell her the truth, maybe she will forgive you. Even though you're blind, at least you could have the joy of your child's company and not be so lonely."

Darren smiled bitterly, "Exchanging my eyes for Joyce's lifetime happiness is worth it. But I don't want her to feel forced to be grateful to me because of this.

What I did hurt her deeply, and I have no face to ask for her forgiveness.

As long as Joyce is happy, I'm satisfied."

"But Mr. Theodore Vale will find out sooner or later. Are you planning to hide it from him too?"

"If Theodore asks, just say I have cataracts and can't have surgery. If he finds out, he might tell Sebastian, and I don't want Sebastian to feel guilty."

Reginald shook his head helplessly, "Alright, I understand. Here's today's medicine. Let me help you take it."

On the other side.

Joyce returned to the ward.

Paxon was lying in Sebastian's arms, kicking his little feet and telling him a story. Seeing Joyce come in, Paxon immediately said, "Mom, I've been taking good care of Dad. I'm telling him the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."

Joyce walked over, kissed his little feet with a smile, and said, "You're amazing, baby. I love you so much."

Paxon giggled, "Mom, don't kiss me. My feet are stinky."

"They're not stinky. I think they smell nice."

After a moment of affection, Joyce looked at Sebastian and said, "This is your second eye surgery, so you can't open your eyes for a week and can't be discharged for two weeks. During this time, you must not get emotional or cry, understand?"

Sebastian held Joyce's hand and nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll listen to you. But you don't have to stay here every day. Take Paxon to the Guise Manor. My dad can take care of me."

"I know. After dinner, I'll take him back."

As they were talking, the door to the ward was pushed open.

Bianca appeared at the door, dressed in casual clothes, wearing a baseball cap and a black mask.

Paxon immediately recognized her.

He jumped off the bed, ran barefoot to Bianca, and said, "Aunt Bianca, are you here to take me to the palace to play?"

Bianca bent down, picked him up, took off her mask, and kissed him, "Come with me and let your mom take good care of your dad, okay?"

Paxon nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I love playing at your palace."

Joyce walked over with a smile, "It's not convenient for me to go out, and I have a lot of work to do. Leonard will come to pick us up later, and we'll go to his place."

"But Leonard's house doesn't have that handsome man who dances. I want to see him dance."

Joyce was puzzled, "Which handsome man? How do you know him?"

Paxon widened his eyes and said, "The one who acted in a movie with Sophia. He performed at Aunt Bianca's place, and I saw him."

There were many people who acted with Sophia, and Joyce couldn't remember who he was talking about.

Paxon immediately took out his phone, found Sophia's movie, and pointed at Edgar, "It's him. He dances so well. I want him to teach me."

Joyce knew a bit about Edgar.

Edgar started in a boy band, then went into acting and won an award.

He had no background or resources and achieved everything through his own efforts.

Sophia once idolized Edgar and aspired to achieve success on her own like he did. Joyce patted Paxon's head with a smile, "Sophia knows him. When we get back, I'll ask her to introduce you and see if he's willing to teach you."

Paxon confidently raised his chin, "I'm so cute and smart. He'll definitely teach me."

Bianca stayed in the ward for about half an hour before receiving a call from Betsy.

"Your Majesty, you need to leave quickly. Someone found out about your private visit and is bringing a bunch of reporters to the hospital."

Hearing this, Bianca immediately put on her mask and hat, "I have to go. I'll see you next time."

With that, Bianca hurriedly left the ward.

Joyce watched her hurried figure and couldn't help but feel a bit sad, "I feel so sorry for Bianca. She has no freedom and is tied to the palace for life."

Sebastian patted her hand to comfort her, "I believe she won't be content with the status quo. The decaying palace system in Snowpeakia needs to be reformed, and I hope Bianca will be the one to do it."

Bianca hurried out of the hospital.

Just as she was about to get into the car, a swarm of reporters rushed towards her. They held microphones and chased after her, asking, "Your Majesty, what are your thoughts on the recent conflict between the two factions in the parliament?" "Your Majesty, which party do you support?"

Bianca was surrounded by the crowd.

Faced with such tricky questions, Bianca couldn't answer. Supporting one side would offend the other.

At that moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Someone is jumping off the building over there. Come and see!"

Everyone looked towards the rooftop.

Sure enough, a girl was standing on the rooftop, about to jump.

All the reporters pointed their cameras at the rooftop.

Just as Bianca was about to look up, someone grabbed her wrist.

Then, a tall figure pulled her out of the crowd.

He led her to a black car.

After the car had driven a long distance, Bianca asked, "Who are you, and why did you

save me?"

Edgar slowly took off his hat and mask.

He looked at her with deep affection, "Bianca, it's me."
