Chapter: 1795
�I�� Renee bit her lip, starting to sweat. Why did Adie have to be so smart? She hadn�t even eaten nutritious food when she was pregnant with him! In just a few minutes, he had almost dug the truth out of her.
However, considering how naive Abby was, maybe her food intake during her pregnancy had nothing to do with it. The twins were just too different.
�Okay, Mommy. I know you�re tired, so you should go to bed. I�m sure your eyes will get better after some rest. Abby, you should go to bed too.� Adie patted Renee�s shoulders and said to Abby, �Go and sleep with Margaret, Abby. I�ll take care of Mommy.�
�No, I want to take care of Mommy too because I�ve promised to be her eyes forever.� Shaking her head, Abby hugged Renee tightly and refused to let go.
�Listen to me, Abby-just go to sleep. Mommy�s eyes might have recovered when you wake up, or� it might all just be a nightmare,� Adie said reassuringly.
Eventually, Abby went to bed with Margaret obediently because of Adie�s coaxing.
�Can you tell me the truth now, Mommy?� After Abby left, Adie turned to Renee.
Although he was the same age as Abby, he was more mature and rational. Sometimes, he was even more mature than adults. Besides, he didn�t believe that Renee was blind because of sickness; he firmly believed that it had something to do with Jovan. However, he understood Renee�s reluctance to tell the truth because she didn�t want to make Abby and Margaret worry. Thus, he came up with a way to send them away.
�You�re a smart kid, Adie. You should know that no one can take away my eyes. I�m not that weak.� Renee reached out and felt around, finally managing to grab Adie�s hand.
Adie immediately understood what she was saying, and his eyes glossed over with unshed tears. �I know. You willingly gave up your eyes to Jovan��
Renee didn�t say anything, silently admitting to it.
�He should have refused even if you were willing because you�re not the one who owed him! How could he take your eyes�� Adie wiped away his tears furiously, feeling
frustrated and outraged.
Although he didn�t understand the strange relationship between Stefan, Renee, and Jovan, he knew the normal relationship between a creditor and a debtor. The debtor should be the one paying the creditor, so it shouldn�t be Renee who had to pay this price.
�Come with me, Mommy. We�ll go to Jovan and ask for your eyes back!� Adie tried his best to pull Renee up as if he wanted to go see Jovan right away.
�Calm down, Adie.� Renee understood Adie�s pain and why he reacted that way. She whispered, �I did it willingly, and I won�t ask him to return them. Plus� he didn�t even know about this.�
�You mean you didn�t even tell him after you did it? Do you think you�re some kind of saint?� Adie was fuming now.
He wanted to ask Renee if she had thought about him and Abby when she so generously gave up her eyes, but he stopped himself. He knew she would be filled with grief and self blame if he asked her that.
�I�ve just had the surgery, so I�m a little tired, Adie. Can you help me back to my room to rest?� Renee asked Adie softly.
She was really tired and couldn�t stay awake anymore. JrNovels.com
