Chapter 208: Chapter 208

Keira Olsen hung up the phone and turned to Lewis Horton, her eyes still shining from recent tears, “Mrs. Olsen has woken up.”

Lewis subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the bedroom, hesitating, “I…”

“You stay here with Grandma, I’ll go back to see her.”

Keira didn’t want to make him feel uncomfortable, so she simply left these words behind and walked out.

Lewis didn’t insist, saying to Tom Davis, “Drive Keira over.”

Sitting in the car, Keira was extremely anxious; she, who always drove at thirty miles per hour, now wished the car could go even faster.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the hospital’s inpatient building.

When Keira got out of the car and was about to run upstairs, she suddenly paused, glancing at the parking lot instinctively.

She saw that the spot where Uncle Olsen had parked was now empty.

Presumably, Uncle Olsen had already returned to the capital?

This thought merely flickered through her mind before Keira entered the building and ran up to the third floor.

Panting at the doorstep, she saw Taylor Olsen alternately crying and laughing as he fed water to Mrs. Olsen, who looked at him helplessly.

Hearing footsteps, Mrs. Olsen slightly turned her head to look toward the door.

For a moment, their eyes met.

Keira felt as if she were rooted to the spot, standing there, not knowing whether to enter or retreat.

She stared blankly at Mrs. Olsen.

Her emotions were too agitated and complex to understand.

As a child, every time she saw Mrs. Olsen speaking gently to Isla Olsen, she was envious. She had often thought, how wonderful would it be if Mrs. Olsen were her mother?

She never imagined that one day this dream would come true.

At this moment, the look in Mrs. Olsen’s eyes was filled with compassion, pity, and the same tenderness and intense affection she showed Isla.

Keira’s nose began to tingle again, her eyes gradually filling with tears.

She wanted to say something, but her mouth opened and then closed, not knowing what to say to express her feelings at this moment…

As she struggled and even felt the situation was becoming awkward, Mrs. Olsen suddenly smiled at her. She had just awakened, perhaps after a long sleep, and her cheeks were rosy.

She spoke softly, “Keira, what are you standing there for? Come here…”

Keira could no longer control her emotions and walked straight over, standing by her bed.

Mrs. Olsen pointed to the edge of the bed, “Sit.”

Keira sat down like a puppet, still staring blankly at Mrs. Olsen.

Everything in front of her seemed like a dream…

Happiness had come so quickly that she, who had been miserable for 22 years, was caught off guard.

As she was thinking about what to say, Mrs. Olsen spoke first, “Keira, I need to say sorry to you first.”

Keira was startled, “Why?”

“It’s my fault for not protecting you well enough, allowing you to be secretly switched at birth, and though you were always under my watch, I couldn’t recognize you. I had to watch you being oppressed, being insulted…”

Mrs. Olsen said, her voice choking up, “Keira, I’m not asking for your forgiveness, I just want to say, it’s all my mother’s fault.”

Mother…

Keira Olsen’s tears, which she had just suppressed, streamed down again as she suddenly stepped forward and tightly hugged Mrs. Olsen. “Mrs. Olsen, I have never blamed you. I’m so happy. You don’t know how thrilled I was to find out I’m your daughter…”

Mrs. Olsen, however, began to cry. “Silly child, do you still call me Mrs. Olsen now?”

Keira Olsen paused, then she opened her mouth and called out, “Mom.”

“Yes?”

Hearing her response, Keira Olsen felt it was all so surreal. She feared everything before her eyes was just a bubble, so she softly called out again, “Mom?”

“I’m here.”

Keira Olsen then put more strength into her embrace and called out again, “Mom…”

“I’m here.”

Keira Olsen suddenly felt very aggrieved.

She felt aggrieved for herself for the past 22 years. Her nose tingled with the onset of tears, and just as she was about to say something more, Taylor Olsen spoke beside her, “Keira, your mom has just woken up, it’s best not to get too emotional…”

Keira Olsen then suppressed her own emotions.

She quickly wiped away her tears, pushed away Mrs. Olsen, and then looked at her with a smile, “You’re okay, right?”

Mrs. Olsen, seeing her red-rimmed eyes, tenderly reached out and touched her face. “I’m fine. It’s just that thinking of all the hardships you’ve endured, I got a bit overwhelmed… I never imagined Poppy Hill would be such a person. I shouldn’t have been kind-hearted on a whim back then, only to end up harming my own daughter!”

Mrs. Olsen said this and then coughed twice.

Taylor Olsen immediately helped her by gently patting her back, “Alright, alright, Shirley, calm down. She’s now suffering the consequences she deserves! I heard both her legs are broken, and one of her arms is fractured. She’ll spend the rest of her life rotting in the hospital, never being able to escape!”

Hearing this, Keira Olsen looked towards Mrs. Olsen, “Mom, and Isla…”

She hesitated, not knowing how to break to Mrs. Olsen the news about Isla’s fate, considering Mrs. Olsen had raised her for so many years, and they shared real affection.

At this remark, Mrs. Olsen’s eyes softened noticeably.

But she quickly became resolute again. “Her ending, your dad told me all about it. It’s her own fault for choosing the wrong path. At this point, no one else is to blame!”

Mrs. Olsen mentioned this and then lowered her head to cough twice more.

Seeing this, Taylor Olsen hurriedly handed her some water.

After drinking a couple of sips, Mrs. Olsen couldn’t help but turn to him, “Taylor, go home and rest a bit. You’ve been up too long; don’t let your health fail.”

Taylor Olsen, however, shook his head. “Shirley, I’m not leaving. I want to stay with you the whole time!”

Mrs. Olsen gave a bitter smile, “If you stay here, that must mean you didn’t shower yesterday. You’re starting to smell…”

The weather in Oceanion was quite hot and humid, making one feel sticky without a daily shower.

Upon hearing this, Taylor Olsen immediately sniffed himself and then stepped back, “Then, I’ll go home and take a shower, and then I’ll come back to stay with you.”

He stood up to leave the room.

Mrs. Olsen then said, “Ask Aunt South to make a pot of seafood porridge for you to eat… and bring the leftovers when you come back.”

Taylor Olsen nodded and then reluctantly left the room.

His demeanor was like that of a newlywed, causing Keira Olsen to feel almost embarrassed to watch.

After Taylor Olsen left the room, Mrs. Olsen took Keira Olsen’s hand. “Keira, please don’t blame Taylor, alright? He has always thought Isla was my daughter all these years, which is why he neglected you…”

Keira Olsen looked down. “I don’t blame him, but I have no feelings for him.”

Jodie South didn’t force the issue, “That’s enough, if there’s no father-daughter bond, besides, he’s not your father.”

Upon hearing Jodie South mention this, Keira Olsen took the opportunity to ask, “Mom, then who is my real father? Is it Uncle Olsen?”
