The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140

“I think that ointment is really effective, after rubbing it, my whole belly feels warm and so comfortable, right, Cedrick?”

Maricela said this and then looked up to ask Cedrick.

So she was waiting here to show off that Cedrick rubbed her belly?

Lucille shook her head with a smile, “I don’t need to get checked. Besides, infertility isn’t necessarily the woman’s problem. I suggest Cedrick get checked properly. Hmm, this holistic health clinic probably has a men’s health department, right?”

Hearing this, Cedrick’s face turned green.

“Oh dear, don’t be like this.”

Lucille smiled with a concerned look, coaxing Cedrick patiently. “I know men care too much about saving face–they’d never admit shortcomings in this area. But if you’re sick, get treated! Don’t avoid seeing a doctor!”

Lucille spoke openly at normal volume, unconcealed. Instantly, several people in the waiting area overheard and turned curious looks toward Cedrick.

No matter how tightly Cedrick furrowed his brows or darkened his expression, he couldn’t escape the audience’s prying eyes. He gritted his teeth, whispering, “Lucille, don’t talk nonsense!”

“I’m being kind! How is this nonsense?

I want you to become a father soon too!

Right?”

Lucille waved her hand. “I won’t disturb your appointment. Bye–bye.”

Lucille turned and walked out of the holistic health clinic.

She realized something: wherever she went now, she no longer cowered like before, carefully hiding, afraid others would discover she was lame.

Yes, her legs weren’t good, that was a fact, but it wasn’t her fault, nor was it a stain, why should she be ashamed of it?

Love truly makes one humble.

Or rather, loving someone who doesn’t cherish you back makes one humble.

Once she decided not to love anymore, it was as if she suddenly held her head high.

Thinking this through, just now at the holistic health clinic, no matter how despicable Cedrick and Maricela were, it didn’t hurt anymore; nothing was more uplifting than her own soaring.

Cedrick seemed to be calling her name from behind, while Maricela was calling “Cedrick“.

In the end, “Cedrick” would stay by Maricela’s side as always, just like every time he had to choose between her and Maricela.

To her, it didn’t matter anymore; “Cedrick” never belonged to her. Giving up something that wasn’t hers might be sad for a short while, but everything would pass.

Lucille hailed a taxi and headed straight to Grandma’s house.

As soon as she reached the gate, she shouted for Grandma, unable to wait.

Grandma came out to greet her, gave her a big hug, smiling from ear to ear.

Lucille had a patch of hair shaved off due to stitches on her head, quite noticeable, so today she deliberately tied a messy bun to cover that spot.

Luckily, Grandma didn’t notice.

Grandma held her hand and led her inside, just like when she was a child coming home from school. The aroma of food was already in the air, the familiar scent every time Lucille returned.

Grandma handed her the express delivery bag with the passport.

She quickly opened it, and for those two visa pages, she looked back and forth, over and

over.

She told Grandma which page was the student visa and which was for this tour, Grandma beaming, praising her nonstop, truly giving her full emotional support.
