Chapter 1487

After a week, Renee was getting used to being blind. She adapted quickly, and Margaret and her children took great care of her. She learned about current events through voice messages and Braille, which she picked up quickly, so she was quite up-to-date despite staying at Everheart Manor all the time. She found out from the news that the Hunt and the Murphy families had fallen out with each other, and naturally, the marriage between Stefan and Seraphina was off. Thanks to that, Hunt Enterprise was facing its biggest crisis due to financial and technical issues, and many felt that the Great Eight of Beach City might be reshuffled.

Renee didn’t know what to feel when she heard the news. She was neither happy nor sad, and felt like an onlooker calmly reading about people from another world. Finally, she could distance herself from that mess, and the thought of it gave her peace of mind.

After driving Adie and Abby to school every morning, Margaret would lead Renee to the pagoda tree in the front yard of the manor for sunbathing. She would lay on her bean bag and enjoy the warm sunlight, breathing in the fresh air and the lovely scent of the tree. Although the days seemed longer, they were precious to her.

“How are you feeling, Ms. Ren? Do your eyes hurt? I’ve made some medicine to reduce inflammation and swelling, remember to put them on your eyes briefly before you sleep. It’s very effective.” Having excellent medical skills, Margaret had been researching ways to help Renee’s eyes recover quickly. A transplant would be possible as long as they found a pair of eyes suitable for Renee that her body didn’t resist. In the meantime, they had to take great care of her eyes to ensure a perfect transplantation when the time came. However, finding such a pair of eyes was extremely difficult, and though Renee seemed to be adapting well to her new life, Margaret felt devastated at the thought of Renee being blind her whole life.

“Thank you, Margaret. You’ve done a lot for me, so don’t be sad or blame yourself. To tell you the truth, I’m much calmer and happier now.” Renee tried to reassure Margaret, knowing how upset she was. However, it only made Margaret sadder.

“Ms. Ren, you’re the one who’s injured but you’re trying to comfort me. Why are you so nice? I’m really useless… I promised your mother to take good care of you, but something this terrible happened to you. I… I…” Margaret sobbed, unable to speak. Eventually, she took a deep breath and calmed herself, wiping her tears away. “It’s getting windy. Let me go and get you a blanket, Ms.

Ren. Please wait for me and call for me if you need anything.”

“Go on, Margaret. I grew up here, so I know my way around. Don’t worry about me.” Renee smiled.

She remembered every part of the manor, and she could live there even if Margaret and her children weren’t around.

Margaret entered the villa to look for a blanket while Renee lay down under the pagoda tree, enjoying the serenity of the quiet morning. The breeze ruffled her hair, bringing along the sweet scent of flowers, and the sunlight warmed her skin.
