Chapter 953: Chapter 956: Discovering the Second Personality (6)

“Joan, how could you…”

Lily stared at the heavily pregnant Joan Wellington before her, her face a mixture of surprise and disbelief.

When she had left, Joan was still an unmarried maiden.

But now, she appeared sporting a big belly.

It looked like she was at least six months along.

“Lily, is it really you… You’ve really come back!”

Joan was so thrilled to see Lily that she immediately lunged towards her.

With a belly over six months pregnant, Lily was startled and truly prepared to catch her.

A large hand intercepted her halfway, deftly wrapping around Joan’s widened waist and pulling her into an embrace.

“Joan, you’re not being obedient again.”

Winston gathered Joan into his arms.

Even though he spoke to her with a poker face, his tone was utterly tender.

Stoic Winston could actually have such a warm side; not just Lily, but Sadie almost jumped in surprise.

“Winston, you and Joan… You two?”

Lily suddenly understood, no wonder Winston had been requesting to stay in Eastonia with Daddy over these few years.

So this was the reason.

“Lily, I am now Winston’s wife. I’m sorry, because we were secretly together before, so I didn’t let Winston tell anyone about our marriage.”

Her relationship with Winston wasn’t blessed by her family.

This man, seemingly cold but who catered to her every whim and doted on her, went so far as to follow her parents’ wishes to break up with her, so as to avoid a fallout with her family.

Back then, she defiantly left home and didn’t ask for anything except for his hand in marriage.

From that point on, she became his wife.

“Joan, silly… why are you saying sorry, I can’t congratulate you enough.”

Joan, now with a significant bump, had a radiant look that made it clear Winston was taking good care of her.

With her pregnant self nestled in Winston’s strong, comforting arms and her laughter, she seemed genuinely blissful.

“Lily, Winston has already told me about your situation. In truth, I have always been hesitant about whether to tell you the truth, because it might be somewhat cruel. So before you returned, I thought since you decided to move on, it would be better not to disturb you. But now…”

“Joan, what exactly happened? All I want now is to find Ethan, I just want to make amends to him…”

Seeing Lily like this, Joan couldn’t help but feel sorrowful.

She said softly, “Lily, even if you want to make amends, Ethan might no longer be able to accept them. Because He… He no longer exists in this world.”

“No longer exists… No, that’s not possible; I had just parted ways with him.”

Even if the Ethan she knew only called her ‘Lily’, at least, he had once called her ‘Little Lily’.

“I don’t believe Ethan would die; I don’t believe it.” Lily shook her head, her eyes wavering.

“Lily, you’ve misunderstood, Ethan isn’t dead. He… He’s just asleep…”

As Dylan Wellington’s sister, who Ethan had doted on as his little sister since childhood, Joan intimately knew everything that happened to the Lucas family after Lily Gray left.

She explained everything to Lily in detail about what had transpired in the Lucas household during the years she was away.

Joan had completely cut ties with the Wellington family one year ago.

Therefore, she was crystal clear about the events that occurred in the three years from Lily’s departure four years ago to one year ago.

Especially because of her identity, Joan even knew why Ethan’s alternate personality did not remember Lily Gray.
