Chapter 460

Eloise and Sean saw this scene when they were outside the room and their hearts were in excruciating pain.

They did not dare to go disturb them. At the same time, they did not dare to tell Madeline that Jackson was actually her biological son without careful consideration.

Eloise covered her mouth when she saw this. She swallowed her sobs and ran away quickly.

“Ellie!”

Sean called out to Eloise in a low voice. Then, he looked at Madeline longingly before chasing after his wife.

Eloise went back to her room and collapsed on her bed. She covered her face as she started bawling.

Even though Sean was also in debilitating sadness, as a husband and a man, he had to be stronger and more composed than Eloise at this moment.

“Ellie, stop crying. Don’t be like this.” Sean patted Eloise’s shoulder and comforted her. “No matter what, our daughter is still alive and she’s living her best life. We should be happy and proud of her.”

Eloise cried even harder after she heard that.

Of course, she knew she should feel happy about that.

However, everything from the past resurfaced in her brain. The scenes of her hitting and yelling at Madeline were replaying in her head, as well as the scene of Madeline vomiting blood and gasping for air because of her sickness.

When she thought about those, Eloise felt that it pained her just to breathe.

“Why am I such a failure as a mother? Even if she was just a stranger, I shouldn’t have hit or yelled at her…”

Eloise was blaming herself furiously. She lifted her red eyes and looked at Sean.

“Sean, do you know? I used this hand to hit our daughter so many times. I called her a vile woman and a b*tch. I even cursed that she’d go to hell. I told her that she deserved to be abandoned by her parents…

“How could I be so despicable? I even said that she was just pretending when she vomited blood from her illness. I said she only did that to get Jeremy’s attention!”

As Sean listened to Eloise, his eyes reddened as his Adam’s apple bobbed. “Eloise, stop talking.

Please stop talking…” he muttered. He was also involved in the horrible memories that Eloise mentioned. He had also been heartless and cruel to their daughter.

Eloise was crying like she was a burst dam. She cried so hard that she could not breathe.

“Sean, how could I have treated my daughter like this? What blinded me back then? I didn’t even notice that she’s our flesh and blood. She looked at me again and again with those eyes. Why didn’t I notice that her eyes are almost the same as mine…”

“Same goes to me…” Sean lowered his head in remorse. “Every time I saw Eveline, she gave me such a familiar feeling. However, with Meredith misguiding us, I completely lost my sense of judgment and hurt our daughter so deeply. Ellie, my heart hurt as much as yours.”

“Sean, I’m so ashamed to acknowledge Eveline. We’ve wronged that child so much…” Eloise fell into Sean’s arms and was in a state of despair.

Sean held Eloise and took a deep breath after he closed his eyes. Then, he sighed long and hard.

“You’re right. We are too ashamed to acknowledge the child. We also have no right to ask her to come home.”

“Sean…”

“Ellie, let’s give the right to choose to our daughter.” Sean made a decision.

Eloise understood what he meant. She did not want to make this decision, but she was also scared that Madeline would refuse to acknowledge them after they exposed this secret.

Sean smiled and wiped away the tears on Eloise’s face.

“As long as our child is healthy and safe, I’ll be happy even if she only calls me Mr. Montgomery.”

Knock, knock, knock.

After Sean said that, there were knockings on the door. Then, the maid’s voice came from outside the door.

“Sir, Madam, Young Master Jackson has already fallen asleep. Miss Quinn said she’s leaving and asked me to inform you.”

“Ask Miss Quinn to wait for us. We’ll go down now.”

Eloise and Sean washed their faces quickly in the toilet. After they recomposed themselves, they rushed downstairs.

When they saw the figure in their living room, Sean and Eloise called out with smiles on their faces, “Miss Quinn.”
