Leukemia, how could it not hurt at all?
Maureen didn’t want him to be so sensible.
“How about Aunt Katherine and | take you out to play today?”
Ethan immediately agreed: “Okay.”
Maureen changed his clothes, and the three of them left the hospital to go shopping and play around the zoo.
They didn’t know that someone in a hidden spot was taking photos and videos of them.
Afterwards, they sent all the videos and photos to Heather.
When Heather saw the photos and videos, she was puzzled: “Isn't Roy still in Karaville?
When did he cback?”
The secretary shook her head: “I'm not sure either. Our people barely managed to get these photos.
Maureen's got the young master’s men tailing her. Our people can’t get close.”
Ever since those sent to investigate Maureen and Jacob got spotted by Geoffrey, Heather's been extra careful.
Her people dare not go near their place.
Heather stared at the photos, realizing how much she still didn’t know.
“Keep digging. | want to see what other secrets Maureen's hiding.”
“Yes.”
Meanwhile, Maureen and Katherine took Ethan to play with a few Reenies. They headed back soon since he
couldn’t handle the strain.
They agreed to bring Ethan ha few days before Christmas Holidays.
After leaving the hospital, Katherine comforted Maureen in the car: “Once your baby’s born and we get the cord
blood, Ethan can have his surgery. After that, he’ll be just like Jacob.”

She rubbed her belly: “Wonder if it’s a boy or girl this time.”
“A girl would be perfect - you'd have both! Ethan and Jacob would love a baby sister’
Katherine said
Maureen definitely wanted a daughter too, but she'd love either.
“By the way, Katherine, what are you planning to do?”
“What do you mean?”
“How will you handle things with your dad?”
Maureen sensed her friend hadn’t moved on from her first love with Tyler.

Katherine leaned back in her chair, gazing out the window. “I don’t know. Seeing you with Geoffrey, and Ethan
and Jacob... maybe | should just listen to my dad and get married.”
“Katherine, don’t marry just for the sake of marriage,” Maureen urged.
Katherine took a deep breath. “Isn’t that what most people do in the real world?”
“Reenie, do you regret getting married?”
Regret?
“I regret marrying Geoffrey. But I'll never regret having Ethan and Jacob.”
“So | hope you'll give this serious thought.”
Katherine shook her head. “Forget it. People regret marrying someone they love too. Choosing someone you
don’t love won't change that outcome.”
“At least my heart won't get broken.”
Maureen understood her decision was final. No point pushing further-everyone walks their own path. Consider it
life experience.
After dinner at home, Katherine bid Maureen farewell.
Before leaving, she hugged her friend tightly.
“Reenie, | hope we both find happiness from now on.”

Maureen patted her shoulder. “We will.”
Katherine was reluctant to leave.

Back in the car, she called Scott: “Dad, I've decided. Please arrange blind dates for me.
Without fully catching Scott’s response, Katherine dazedly hung up. Rolling down the window. the biting wind did
little to clear her mind
That online saying held truth-reality eventually molds us into the very people we despise.
Katherine didn’t cry, merely feeling numb.
In Small Town. goose-feather-like snowflakes fell ceaselessly.
Maureen stood on the balcony watching Katherine's retreating figure, engulfed by profound loneliness
Geoffrey entered unnoticed: “Why standing out here?”
He'd detected her presence through the icy breeze and soft breathing.
Blindness heightened his other senses.
Maureen turned toward him: “Just watching the snow.”
“Want to build a snowman?”
Geoffrey suddenly asked
He remembered Maureen loved snow, loved building snowmen like a child-though he used to call it childish
Maureen hadn't expected this suggestion. A flicker of light crossed her eyes, vanishing instantly “No. It's too cold
outside. And it’s childish”
Geoffrey's throat tightened
Maureen walked inside. “I need rest. Leave.”
She expected him to linger stubbornly like last night. Instead, he left without protest.
Relieved she didn’t have to force him out, Maureen immediately locked the door and barricaded

Chapter 209
Once in bed, she fell asleep swiftly.
Early next morning,
Maureen woke to find only light snow drifting outside, sunlight breaking through.
She drew the curtains and headed to wash up when-
Countless tiny snowmen dotted the snowy yard.
Eyes widening in astonishment, Maureen slid open the French window and stepped onto the balcony.
There stood Geoffrey, meticulously shaping another snowman.
Heart tangled in a mix of emotions, she descended and crunched through snow toward him. “What's all this?”
“Today's room. Snowmen.”
Geoffrey parted his thin lips, as though stating the most ordinary fact.
But Maureen knew clearly that the old him would have despised this.
