Chapter 698 Snuggle Together
“Put him on the bed and let him sleep by himself,” Cora reminded.
“No need. I want to hold him a little longer. He likes sleeping like this, so let him.”
Looking at the innocent face in his arms, Byron suddenly said, “Cora, Tell me about Martin’s childhood.”
“What do you want to hear?”
“Anything is fine,” Byron said.
A small child like him, calling him “father” today.
That miraculous feeling made him wish he could go back four years ago and protect him, who had not yet arrived in this
world.
“Martin’s birth was a miracle. When I was pregnant for more than six months, I had a placental sinus rupture. At that time, I had to stay in the hospital to save the baby, even having to do everything in bed. But I managed to sustain the pregnancy until more than eight months, and Martin was still born
prematurely…”

Cora approached Byron and looked at Martin sleeping soundly in his arms, her eyes unintentionally becoming
gentler.
During that time, her mental state was terrible because of
Byron’s “death“.
But Martin’s toughness and resilience, like a ray of light, made her persevere and move forward in the dark time.
“Although he was very small at birth, he couldn’t even get
insurance. But he grew up quickly afterward and became
chubby in six months. Let me show you some pictures of him when he was a baby.”
Cora said with increasing happiness, flipping through the
photos stored in her phone for Byron to see.
Then, Byron saw Martin, around six months old, chubby and
incredibly cute.
However, Byron paid more attention to how Cora looked at that time. She was so thin, almost just bones, and her eyes were dimmed.
Martin was born prematurely and lacked various congenital
conditions, but he transformed in six months to become
plump and no different from a normal child. This was

undoubtedly deeply related to Cora’s careful care.
But at that time, Cora had just experienced the pain of losing her husband, and her mental state was extremely poor, yet she had to take care of and nurture the child alone.
Thinking about all this, Byron truly felt heartache and guilt.
His voice hoarse, he said, “Cora, I really regret it. If I had contacted you earlier and brought you and Martin by my side, you wouldn’t have had to endure everything alone.”
Cora wanted to look up at him, but he covered her eyes with
his hand.
Cora then stopped looking and just leaned on his shoulder.
“Everything is in the past. And during that time, we were both at fault. You don’t need to blame yourself excessively. Just be grateful that we have all survived…”
This time, regaining what was lost made Cora understand the
preciousness of reunion.
So she had already decided to completely let go of everything
from before and live a good life with Martin and Byron.
“Well, after your face heals, we will have our wedding.”
“Okay…”

The two held hands, leaning against each other happily.
The next day, when Sara came to see Cora, she happened to see the doctor changing the medicine on Cora’s face.
“What happened? Is it infected?”
When Sara came in, she noticed that the wound was slightly red and swollen, and there were some blisters, causing her to worry.
“Yes, it’s probably because the gauze quality was not good enough yesterday. I’ve already changed to a more breathable
one now.”
Cora replied calmly, but Sara still couldn’t help but worry. *Should we ask a specialist to come and take a look? It would be troublesome if it leaves a scar.”
“If it leaves a scar, would you not recognize me?” Cora suddenly asked.
