Kneeling for a Second Chance (Sebastian and Valeria) novel Chapter 137

Martha had plucked a strand of Selena's hair and had planned to take it to the lab for a DNA test.

However, Nicholas had stopped Martha and chastised her for it. He had claimed that her age was catching up to her brain and that she was acting on impulse.

Martha had been arguing with him for almost a lifetime, and her rebuttal to her words were solid.

"Not only do I read those silly novels, I'm also planning to act in them. I've already signed a contract with the entertainment companies under our family, and filming will start soon.

"I'm not just funding the whole drama, I'll also be playing the role of a madam from a wealthy family."

After taking a few bites, Nicholas was so annoyed that he got a headache and left the table.

The butler quickly went to the kitchen to have the chef prepare another meal, brought it upstairs, and tried to persuade Nicholas.

Nicholas sighed and said, "Just let her do what she wants."

…

Valeria had taken a few days off from school.

A week later, Valeria had brought Lucy to the hospital for a follow-up. The doctor said Lucy's eyes had recovered nicely, and Lucy just needed to watch her diet and rest at home for a full recovery.

Another two days later, Valeria had to return to work, so she was planning to hire a caregiver for Lucy.

Lucy had been lying on the sofa, listening to an audiobook. "I don't want a caregiver. I don't have any difficulties moving around, so why would I need a caregiver?"

If the issue was with how she couldn't see, then she could always just walk slowly.

Lucy was staying in her home, the place where she had lived for more than half of her life. She didn't need her eyes to know where everything was.

Then, Lucy added, "You can just ask Lenny to act as my eyes. If I'm hungry, I'll just order some takeout. Don't worry, Selena and I won't end up starving."

Hearing Lucy's words, Valeria burst out laughing.

"Do you think I don't know how to order takeout or something? I'm telling you this now, but I know how to do plenty of things out there," Lucy said animatedly.

Unfortunately, since Lucy couldn't see, she couldn't play cards and banter with her two friends.

Valeria asked Lucy about it a few more times, but Lucy was adamant about not hiring a caregiver.

Then, Valeria took Lucy's phone and opened the TikTok app to send an emoji to both "LifeTranquility" and "SunshineSmile".

Before Valeria left, she reminded Selena to use Lucy's phone to call her if anything happened.

When Valeria had returned home from work, Lucy told her that Leo had been visiting often for the past few days.

Martha would come with him sometimes, and it seemed that Lucy and Martha had hit it off.
