Chapter 1235
“But… Even if we can use these to deal with the outsiders, Zephyr won’t easily buy it,”
Harriet said worriedly.
“So what even if he really suspects, or if he really discovers about the truth? Can he
expose it? Is he going to give up his current family and a part of his career for Riley who’s
not even normal?” Peter was dissatisfied with his daughter who looked as if the world was
coming to an end. “Don’t forget that you and Zephyr still have a child.”
Harriet’s eyes lit up instantly. Yes, there was Hendrick between her and Zephyr. He was
the only direct grandson of the Scott family. Even if Zephyr still had feelings for Riley, he
would never let anything happen to the Summer family and Harriet herself!
“By the way, is Hendrick still abroad?” Peter asked.
“Yeah, his grandparents are taking care of him. They said they wanted him to take a good
look around before school,” Harriet said.
“You should follow him as a mother. He’s your son, after all. How can you always leave him
with other people? Be careful if he doesn’t have any feelings for the Summer family and
you in the future!” Peter reprimanded her.
“Yes, yes. I’ll definitely take care of Hendrick more in the future,” Harriet hurriedly said.
She secretly exchanged a look with her mother.
Her father did not know, but she and her mother knew that Hendrick was not her child. He
was the child of Riley and Zephyr.
If it was not for her physical condition that prevented her from getting pregnant, she
would not use all means to get Riley’s child and raise him.
Only God knows how she would think of Riley every time she saw the child’s face. And as
he grew older, there were more and more resemblances of Riley on his face. She was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreally worried that one day, someone would discover that the child looked like Riley and
thus know that Riley was his biological mother!
If that day were to come, she would rather disfigure the child’s face to keep the secret.
No matter what, no one should find that Riley was the biological mother of the child!

Amelia accompanied Riley into the single-room ward. In the ward, Riley kept saying to
Amelia in a hoarse voice, “Thank you… Amelia. Thank
you…”

“You haven’t spoken for a long time. Your throat will hurt if you say to much at once. We
can talk as much as we want when you get better,” Amelia said.
Riley nodded and looked at Amelia’s bulging abdomen. At that moment, a trace of regret
rose in her eyes.
If at that time… Her child should be seven years old now if he was still alive. What a
shame… She failed to protect his life and lost him just like
that…
She stretched out her battered right hand, wanting to touch it but hesitated.
Seeing this, Amelia took the initiative to hold Riley’s hand and put it on her abdomen. “It’s
already six months, so maybe you’ll get to see the baby soon. You must be the godmother
of my child.”
The fog in Riley’s eyes became thicker. “Okay, I’ll be the godmother of the child…” she
murmured.
Amelia told Riley about her own situation and had Riley rest peacefully in the hospital. The
Youngblood family and the York family would be responsible for protecting Riley. Now, due
to the intervention of the media and the preliminary diagnosis of this psychiatrist invited
by Wyatt, the Summer family dared not take Riley away by force.
After all, the Summer family would only be pestered by more gossip if they were to
forcibly take her away again.
Apparently, Riley was tired after such a long time. She fell asleep in no time. Looking at
her best friend’s sleeping figure, Amelia could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Riley was still normal and did not suffer from any mental illness. Although today’s
diagnosis was only a preliminary one, she believed that the subsequent consultation
would be fine.
After coming out of the ward, Amelia said to Warren, “Riley can be proven to be a normal
person. She doesn’t need any guardians. That’s all for now. But I’ll stay in Lommore for
some time to accompany her. You can go back to Lofbury or Strico first if you want.
There’s no need to stay

here anymore.”
Warren paused and said, “What? Are you going to turn your back on me now? You’re going
to abandon me since Riley’s out of trouble?”
“No, I didn’t mean that!” Amelia hurriedly said, “I’m just worried that y stay here for a long
time will affect your work, and that’s why I suggest you go back.”
He sneered, “Don’t always look as if you’re worried about me. Don’t forget that you once
said that you didn’t have any feelings towards me when we were in Strico. Amelia, I’m
merely diluting my feelings for you, not my memories. I still remember every single word
you told me.”
Her face turned pale, and she bit her lower lip tightly with her pearl-white teeth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, several people who looked like reporters suddenly appeared out of
nowhere with cameras in their hands.
These people gathered around them, and all they talked about was Riley. Obviously, they
wanted to get some special information from them.
“I’ve already said what I need to. There’s nothing else to say,” Amelia said.
“How can it be? I’ve never heard that the eldest daughter of the Summer family had a
friend like you before. Are you hiding some other intentions since you suddenly appeared
to prove that Riley is not a mentally ill person?” While saying that, they took their phones
and snapped many pictures of Amelia.
Amelia frowned and suddenly felt that familiar pain in her abdomen.
The pain felt like it was the same one that happened in Lofbury… She remembered that
the doctor once said that this pain would become more frequent as time went by.
However, she had been in good health since she came to Lommore. Little did she expect
that the pain would recur at this time.
Warren noticed Amelia’s strange behavior and immediately asked, “What’s wrong?”
“My stomach… It hurts a little. Go… Go to the hospital,” Amelia endured the pain and said.
“Okay, hang in there. We’ll be right there.” Warren held Amelia and was

about to leave.
However, those reporters did not want to let go of them like this.
“Get lost!” Warren scolded, but the reporters got closer and closer. Questions never stop
coming out of them. Moreover, they confronted Amelia directly, “Why do you even need to
pretend? It’s just a few questions. What’s so hard to answer? Or is it because you’re
guilty?”
