BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1193 - 481: Are You Sure It Can Work?
Hazel had doubts in the heart. She could understand the Sloane family wanted Stacy to get treatment, and they were concerned about Stacy\'s safety. But judging from the current situation, it seemed they got a little too nervous about Stacy\'s safety. It looked as if… they were on guard against something.
Hazel got out of the car, holding a beautiful doll in her arms.
Joshua furrowed slightly. He asked with doubts. "Are you sure it can work?"
Before he arrived, he thought about what kind of gift he should give to Stacy, but Hazel vetoed everything he mentioned.
As Hazel said, the Sloane family\'s economic situation wasn\'t bad. They could give her anything that Joshua could offer. Besides, given her current situation, Stacy couldn\'t use any of it even if Joshua moved a gold mountain here.
What was more, if she was conscious, Joshua, who didn\'t misunderstand her anymore and was willing to meet her and reunite with her, was the perfect gift to her.
Hence, in the end, Hazel thought for a long time before she prepared some movie DVDs and a rag doll.
Hazel\'s thought was that since Stacy was so devastated by the death of her child that she became muddleheaded, giving her a rag doll might remind her of some memories.
In fact, Hazel had intended to try it with a real baby, but Stacy was so crazy last time when she saw Joshua that Hazel didn\'t want to risk it.
Hearing Joshua\'s question, Hazel was very sure. "Of course, it\'s uncertain! No kidding. The Sloane family must have hired some of the world\'s top psychologists over the years. They were all helpless. If Aunt Stacy is awakened by a doll that I gave to her, would they be so ashamed that they want to hang themselves with a noodle?"
Joshua was amused. "Then why do you still..."
"Whether it can work or not, we should try it," she said. She didn\'t expect much from this method, but they had consulted Stacy\'s doctor, who said they could give Stacy these gifts. Even if their gifts couldn\'t work, at least they wouldn\'t hurt her.
Joshua\'s face softened a little. Hazel cared about Stacy because she loved him. Even when she wanted to give Stacy a gift, she was so thoughtful.
Even if it wouldn\'t work, her kind feelings couldn\'t be compared with any gifts. She had done so much for him, so he should also give her something in return.
At the thought of this, he rubbed her hair. "You still call her Aunt Stacy? How distant!"
She looked at him in astonishment, and the shock on her face turned to joy, but her face soon turned red.
Did Joshua mean that he was willing to recognize Stacy as his mother? How could she be unhappy at the thought of it?
Having said that, he was hinting that she should change her address, which was hard for her. She was so thin-skinned. Joshua had to remind her all day long of changing the address and calling him "Honey."
"I\'ll call Aunt Stacy\'s mom when… she gets better..." she said timidly.
Joshua sighed. Given Stacy\'s situation, the Sloane family had prepared for the worst. After all, they had waited for her to get better for so many years. It was a question of whether they would be able to wait until Stacy regained consciousness.
Hazel immediately realized that her words cut Joshua to the quick. She bit her lip anxiously, wondering how to explain. "Joshua, I..."
"Hazel, don\'t think too much." Joshua gently cradled her in his arms. "We both know clearly my mother\'s condition. We are married and are a legal couple. Since she\'s my mother, then she\'s your mother-in-law. Don\'t worry. Given my mother\'s condition, she won\'t refuse even if you call her."
"..." Hazel was speechless. Now Stacy lost consciousness and wouldn\'t refuse even Hazel called her granddaughter, let alone mom!
Isn\'t Joshua bullying me?
When they reached the door of the ward, Joshua consciously stopped and whispered, "Go."
When he saw Stacy last time, he made him go mad. Even doctors couldn\'t tell if it was good or bad, so Joshua had to wait outside.
Hazel nodded and walked into the ward. Stacy was still staring blankly out the window as usual.
Hazel came to Stacy and bit her lip, struggling. She wanted to call her mom first, but she was a little tongue-tied.
Taking a deep breath, she finally shouted, "Mom."
Stacy\'s blank eyes seemed to flash a light.
"I, I\'m Hazel Crowe. I\'ve been to visit you a few times before. I\'m your son\'s wife…" Hazel stammered. Even if she knew Stacy couldn\'t hear her at all, that didn\'t change the fact that the woman in front of her was her mother-in-law. As a daughter-in-law, Hazel was, of course, nervous.
It seemed a touch of puzzle flashed in Stacy\'s eyes, as if… she was trying hard to understand what Hazel meant.
After a brief conversation with Stacy, Hazel gave her the doll she brought.
But, as she had suspected, Stacy didn\'t respond in the least when she put the doll in her arms.
Sure enough, it is a fantastic idea. Hazel gave a wry smile.
Nonetheless, she trusted luck, to begin with, so much that the result didn\'t make her extremely disappointed.
She also brought the DVDs. She took them out and planned to show a film to Stacy.
Those DVDs were some old movies. Hazel pushed Stacy to the TV set and showed her the DVDs to divert her from boredom.
Joshua stood in the doorway. Looking at the two women in the ward, his eyes turned dark slightly despite himself.
His mother… actually lived such a miserable life, and his father was to blame. He was not a person without feelings. On the contrary, his feelings were stronger than anyone else\'s.
Previously, he did not want to look for his parents simply because he thought they had abandoned him. Now he was suddenly grateful that he had met Hazel and that she had insisted. Without her, he might never know for the rest of his life what his mother had been suffering.
Joshua\'s fingers tightened, and unconcealed anger rose from his heart. Why could the man who had caused so much pain to Stacy and him over these years be free and unfettered?
