Chapter 616: Chapter 616: He Does Not Regret at All, But He Admits Defeat

"Mama, mama..." Teddy felt very uncomfortable being carried by his biological father like a briefcase, continuously calling for his mama with his tiny mouth.

Abigail took a deep breath, calmed herself down a bit, and reached out to Teddy, "Teddy, come to mommy."

This time, Brandon Piers did not make things difficult for Abigail and handed Teddy over to her.

Although he did hand Teddy to Abigail, he did not relax and stayed close to the mother and son.

Abigail hadn’t been close to the little guy for a long time. She held the soft little boy in her arms, happily touching his cheeks, his nose, and his ears.

What could be more precious than something regained after being lost?

Teddy was also very excited in Abigail’s arms. After staying for a while, he started to squirm, wanting Abigail to hold him and let him bounce.

It was the first time Abigail held Teddy after regaining her memory, and she was very indulgent with the little guy. But before she could let Teddy bounce on her a few times, Brandon, who had been guarding Teddy like a thief, snatched him away from her.

"Mama, hug." Teddy was displeased, continuing to reach out to Abigail for a hug.

"Daddy’s hug is the same." Brandon would never indulge the little guy and his tone carried a bit of threat.

Abigail’s hands felt empty, and she was somewhat displeased with Brandon.

"Be good, wait until your wounds are healed, and then you can hug him." Compared to his impatience with his son, Brandon’s attitude towards Abigail was entirely different.

"But..."

"No buts." Brandon mercilessly interrupted Abigail.

After he finished speaking, Brandon looked down at his increasingly sturdy son in his arms. Regardless of whether the little guy was willing, he called Aunt Claudia and Juliet Rosa in and handed the little guy to them.

However, knowing that Abigail missed Teddy, Brandon did not let them take him away. He allowed the two women to play with the little guy in the ward.

The little guy had recently started learning to walk, wobbling forward after crawling, which was both frightening and extremely cute.

Before long, the ward was filled with the laughter of women.

Brandon took a glance and quietly left the ward.

"Master Brandon, we’ve found out that it was Hearst Foster who had some leverage on the third master, forcing him to use his connections to get someone out and leaking information about Jeffrey Foster to Hearst." Alex reported in a low voice.

Brandon had already suspected this result. He coldly curled his lips. Whether it was really forced or not was debatable. Considering his third uncle’s style, the third master must have figured out his whereabouts and found Jeffrey Foster and Abigail. He must already know how important Abigail was to him.

Hearst Foster wanted Abigail dead to avenge Jeffrey Foster and also to help the third master attack him.

If there was an opportunity to strike at him, how could his third uncle let it go?

"Keep a close watch on the third branch’s actions. We’ll settle the score when we return. As for Hearst Foster, I think someone will handle him." Right after saying this, Brandon saw Jeffrey Foster coming out of the neighboring ward.

Their eyes met, and neither’s expression was good.

Seeing this, Alex moved aside slightly, worried that the rivals meeting might lead to a fight.

Unexpectedly, Jeffrey just glanced at them and then headed toward Abigail’s ward.

"She is busy," Brandon casually glanced at Jeffrey and spoke unceremoniously.

"Is Master Brandon so insecure about himself?" Jeffrey looked at Brandon mockingly.

"Ha, what right does a loser like you have to say such things?" Brandon retorted.

"Do you know why Abigail chose you? It’s only because you’re Teddy’s father. You just took advantage of her rebirth. If we hadn’t misunderstood each other from the start, do you think you would have had a chance?" The thing Jeffrey regretted most was not recognizing Abigail the moment she was reborn.

If he had recognized her at the beginning, she wouldn’t have had the chance to fall in love with Brandon.

Even when he first saw Brandon’s chest wound being stitched up, he should have recognized Abigail. But unfortunately...

Regret tortured Jeffrey, but he couldn’t turn back time.

Brandon was deeply hurt, but he would never admit defeat in front of Jeffrey. Instead, he looked at him contemptuously, "Jeffrey, you have to admit luck is a part of life. And I just happened to have it."

The remark made Jeffrey’s face extremely uncomfortable. Unlike Brandon, luck was probably what he lacked most in his life. Thinking of what the doctor just said, Jeffrey clenched his fists tightly for a while and then released them with self-mockery, "I have something to say to Abigail. After that, I’ll leave Durin."

Seeing Jeffrey’s stance, although Brandon was very unwilling, he knew that if he didn’t agree, Jeffrey wouldn’t let him feel at ease.

As Brandon stopped talking, Jeffrey knocked on Abigail’s ward door.

Hearing a "come in," Jeffrey then pushed the door open and entered.

As he walked in, he saw Abigail lying on the hospital bed. Aunt Claudia and Juliet Rosa were standing on either side, helping the handsome little boy, not yet a year old, walk towards Abigail. When they saw him come in, one of them picked Teddy up.

The little guy was not very satisfied, hmming and wanting to go to Abigail’s arms.

Abigail didn’t expect Jeffrey to come in. She looked at Teddy, "Aunt Claudia, please take Teddy out to play for a while."

The two women responded, coaxing the little guy as they left the ward.

After they left, only Abigail and Jeffrey remained in the ward.

Seeing Jeffrey’s expression, Abigail knew he had something to say to her.

"Abigail..." Jeffrey gazed lovingly at the person on the hospital bed. Her complexion had improved over the last three days. The smile from playing with the child had not completely faded, making her look gentle and sweet, completely different from when she was with him.

"Yes." Abigail responded. Since her memory had started to return, her feelings towards Jeffrey had become very complicated.

She couldn’t forgive him, but she also couldn’t treat him like an enemy.

"I’m sorry." Hearing Abigail’s indifference, Jeffrey bitterly smiled and said a difficult apology.

Abigail didn’t know how to respond and didn’t answer him.

At this point, Jeffrey became more certain that Abigail remembered everything, "I know you can’t forgive me, and I’m not here to ask for your forgiveness. When I took you away from Swallow City, I was mentally prepared for you to regain your memories. I just didn’t expect it to be so soon..."

Truly, it was too soon. If it had been a little later, she could have stayed by his side a little longer.

"You shouldn’t have lied to me." Listening to Jeffrey, Abigail’s feelings were mixed. She had loved him since she was a girl, loved him for ten years. Her youth’s happiest moments were intertwined with him. She never thought they would come to this.

"I know." How could Jeffrey not know? When he lied to her about Grandpa Smith’s death, he knew if this day came, Abigail would never forgive him.

But at that time, his mind was filled with possessing her, making her sever ties with the past.

Regret?

Probably not. He didn’t regret it at all, but he admitted defeat.
