Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 202

"I've done a lot of thinking these past few days."

"If it weren't for you, the old man would probably be dead by now."

"If it weren't for you, that monster might have succeeded in his plot against Damien."

"You are a benefactor to the Clarke family, and you're a good person."

As Marianne spoke, her eyes reddened.

She reached out, wanting to pat Grace's hand, but then hesitated, afraid of touching her injuries. Her hand hovered awkwardly in the air.

Grace stared blankly at Marianne.

She never thought she would one day hear an apology from her.

In the Hart family, no matter how much she did, it was always wrong.

In the Ward family, even sacrificing her life was considered her duty.

No one had ever apologized for misunderstanding her.

"Mrs. Clarke... no, Mom."

Grace's voice was a bit hesitant as she said the word.

"You're being too kind. I saved Dad because he's my elder, and also... because he's Damien's father."

"I didn't want to see Damien heartbroken."

That simple sentence completely broke through Marianne's composure.

What a wonderful girl.

After all she'd been through, all she could think about was not wanting to see Damien get hurt.

"Yes, yes," Marianne said repeatedly, secretly wiping away a tear.

"The soup is still hot. Drink it while it's warm."

"From now on, I'll have to trouble you to take good care of Damien."

"That boy is stubborn. You're the only one who can handle him."

It was a request, but also an affirmation.

Marianne opened the thermos, personally poured a bowl of soup, and handed it to Grace.

The broth was rich and fragrant.

As Grace held the bowl, tears suddenly streamed down her face.

"Thank you, Mom."

She lowered her head and took a sip.

It was a little salty.

Perhaps from Marianne's tears.

But it was the best soup she had ever tasted in her life.

Damien stood by, watching the scene with a smile playing on his lips.

He walked over and wrapped an arm around Grace's shoulders.

"Don't worry, Mom. She takes very good care of me."

"For the rest of my life, I'll treat her like a queen."

Marianne burst into laughter through her tears and shot her son a look.

"Alright, alright. A son finds a wife and forgets his mother. I won't be a third wheel here."

"The old man still needs me, so I'll head back now."

Marianne picked up her bag, but paused at the door.

She looked back at Grace.

"When you're all healed up, come home for dinner with Damien."
