She went on with the rest of the deliveries, and by the time she
had lunch at two o’clock, Grace did not eat much.
Kyla Corbyn said, “What’s the matter? You’ve eaten so little.
Don’t you like today’s dishes?” When it was lunchtime at noon,
everyone in the small restaurant would take advantage of their free time and get the chef to cook
several dishes for them to eat
together.
“No, I think I ate too much before coming to work this morning.”
Grace looked aside at Nelson. “Why aren’t you eating? I’ll feed
Nelson some fruits. I’m full now anyway.”
Grace took an apple and peeled it. Then, she cut the apple into
small pieces and fed them to Nelson.
The little one obediently opened his mouth and nibbled at the
apple, occasionally smiling at Grace.

sore as she looked at the sleeping little body. Why could an
adorable child like him not hear? Sometimes, God was too cruel.
She only hoped that in the future, after Nelson got a cochlear
implant, he would be able to hear all the voices in the world and
not let this regret follow him for the rest of his life.
“I’ll take him back to his room.” Mrs. Corbyn stepped forward and
took her grandson from Grace’s arms.
Behind the small restaurant was a small, simple house where Kyla Corbyn lived with her mother and
Nelson.
Kyla Corbyn said to Grace, “You’ll be a good mother in the future,
Grace.”
A good mother… Grace gave a faint smile, but her heart was filled with bitterness. She might never get
the chance to become at mother. When she was in prison, she had once been kicked in the womb
during a beating. The doctors said it would be difficult for her to conceive in the future, and even if she

to call her as soon as you’re here so that she can come and pick.
up her order.”
With that, the receptionist made an internal call.
A moment later, Andrea Schwartz hurried out. Andrea Schwartz
was now dressed in formal clothes with delicate makeup and a
proud smirk on her face.
As soon as she saw Grace, Andrea Schwartz said, “You’re
