My Second Husband novel Chapter 1053

Benedict said, "I'm telling the truth."

"I've thought it through. Perhaps it's because I've died once, but instead of wasting my life to pursue someone who can't put me in their eye, it's better to devote my time to other meaningful commitments. I have been in poor health since I was a child. If it weren't for my parents, who kept on saving me again and again, I would have truly died."

"I noticed that Mom has seemed to age a lot when I woke up just now. I feel extremely guilty for that. Therefore, I'm sorry!"

"Naomi, I said that I would love you forever, but I might now need to quit that mission early!"

Although his words were not pleasant to the ear, Naomi was overjoyed for him from the bottom of her heart.

Naomi gave him a sincere grin while saying, "It's okay! No matter where you go, I hope you'll always be happy and able to make your wishes come true!"

Benedict nodded and replied, "Alright, you too!"

"Yes, I will!"

"So, when do you want to marry Nelson?"

Naomi was taken aback for a while before saying, "Uh, we're still planning things out for the time being. We might have an engagement before the marriage. However, we will only do that when all the matters have settled and after we get my parents' blessings."

Benedict pursed his lips and said, "Well, I wish you a happy engagement. I might not be able to attend your wedding since I'm going to Country M after I've recovered. There's a very famous medical university there, and I might go there to study medicine."

Naomi was gobsmacked.

"You're going to study medicine?!" He had not shown any intentions of learning medicine since he was a child.

Benedict said with a faint smile, "Are you that surprised? Truth be told, the answer is rather simple. I've wanted to learn it since I was a child because I wanted to know more about my own body. It would be best if I could cure myself so that my parents wouldn't have to worry about me. It's just that later onwards, I..."

He glanced at Naomi and instantly turned away.

"I gradually forgot about my original goals due to a lot of incidents. Now that I'm ready to live for myself, I should do what I like."

Naomi nodded and said, "Okay! Then, I hope that one day, you can become a world- renowned doctor. When I consult you in the future, remember to give me a discount!"

"You'd better not come! I don't want you to get sick because of a discount."

Naomi was baffled for a second before she let out a laugh.

"You're right!"

The sun shone in through the big window on the other side of the bed. Naomi and Benedict looked at each other and laughed.

It seemed that ever since their relationship had changed, they hadn't genuinely beamed at each other as they were doing at that moment.

Naomi really cherished the moment, and she also wished the best for him.

Benedict, on the other hand, finally decided to get over Naomi and move on. Seeing how elated Naomi was, he eventually let go of his worries.

He would have his own life in the future.

May God bless them.

Thea waited restlessly outside the ward as Eudora and Tina were accompanying her.

She asked nervously, "What are they talking about?"

She was a bundle of nerves.

Benedict had just woken up. She was afraid that Naomi would say something unpleasant and irritate him.

She liked Naomi a lot, but Benedict was her own son nonetheless.

Eudora comforted her, "It'll be fine. Naomi will know what to do."

"That's right! Benedict isn't a presumptuous guy either. Don't worry about them!"

Thea still seemed troubled as she said, "But..."

In the end, it was Harley's words that soothed her nerves. He said, "It would be better for the young ones to let them resolve their matters by themselves. We should believe in Benedict!"

Looking at Harley's reassuring smile, she felt a little at ease at last.

"Alright then!"

However, an absurd situation took place a few moments later.

Thea kept looking inside as the other parents, who had consoled her, did the same too.
