Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 1028

The elder Mr. Williams spoke up right away, his voice serious. “Your mind’s still under the effects of the medicine, and you haven’t fully recovered yet. Don’t push yourself to remember things you can’t recall. That won’t help you at all. Just let things happen naturally. Your master will make sure you get better. For now, just focus on resting and getting stronger.”

Mr. and Mrs. Davis watched their daughter with worried eyes, joining in to comfort her. “That’s right, Camila. Don’t force yourself. No matter what happens, we’ll be here for you.”

Seeing how tense they were, Camila couldn’t bear to make them worry any more. “Okay, I promise. I won’t try to force myself to remember anything.”

Then she glanced over at Mr. Williams and Dennis, her voice a little hesitant. “Can I see my daughter?”

Even if her memories were gone, just hearing the word “daughter” stirred something deep inside her chest. Somehow, she was sure she really did have a little girl, and it mattered to her more than anything.

Dennis met her gaze with so much gentleness. “Of course. I’ll head home soon to pick up a few changes of clothes for you and I’ll bring her here. But right now, why don’t you eat something first, okay?”

“Okay!” Camila nodded right away. She suddenly noticed how hungry she was, and there was no way she was letting all that delicious food go to waste. She finished her meal quickly.

After she ate, Melissa cleared the table, and everyone started getting ready to leave.

Dennis stood at her bedside to say goodbye. “I’m going to take your parents home. Wait here for me, Camila.”

“Okay.” Camila nodded, watching as they walked out the door.

Dennis and her parents got home in no time. Melissa seemed calmer now after seeing her daughter.

As soon as they stepped inside, Lillian was already waiting, bouncing on her toes.

The little girl ran up and wrapped herself around her father’s leg, looking up with big, shining eyes. “Daddy, what took you so long? Where’s Mommy? Why didn’t she come home with you?” she asked in her sweet, soft voice.

Dennis lifted her into his arms, holding her close. “That’s what I wanted to talk to you about, Lillian,” he said gently. “Mommy’s sick right now. She’s getting treatment and can’t come home just yet.”

She was completely absorbed when a soft, sweet voice called out, “Mommy!”

Camila glanced up and saw a tiny blur racing toward her. In the next second, a warm little body flung itself into her arms, holding her tight.

The little girl was absolutely adorable, with features so delicate she looked like a real-life doll. Camila felt an instant rush of affection, so strong it chased away any hesitation. She hugged her daughter back, holding her close.

Lillian cuddled in her arms, not wanting to let go. But then she remembered what Daddy had said about Mommy being sick. She carefully slipped out of the embrace and took Camila’s hand, gently guiding her to sit on the edge of the bed.

Her big, bright eyes sparkled with concern. “Does your head still hurt, Mommy? Do you feel bad anywhere? If you do, you have to tell me, okay? I’m here to take care of you. I can even give you a massage!”

Hearing that sweet little voice, Camila’s heart felt so full and warm. This little girl was just too precious. She couldn’t help but lean in and nuzzle Lillian’s soft cheek. “With you here, Lillian, nothing hurts anymore. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.”

Dennis watched them together, his eyes full of warmth. No matter what memories were lost, the bond between mother and daughter was something that would never fade. It was just part of who they were.
