All Chapters of Withered Yet Freed: Chapter 21 - Chapter 25

A man in a black suit stood at the center of the stage, holding a bouquet.Seeing this, Nelson was almost certain they had entered the wrong venue. This was clearly a wedding, not an anniversary celebration.He turned to his father, saying, "Dad, quickly call Uncle Andrew and ask which hall they're in. We should go there now."Richard's expression had already changed when he spotted Sarah's face in the video.Despite Nelson's urging, he didn't make a call. Instead, he said gravely, "We're not in the wrong place."As he spoke, he looked toward the bride slowly walking toward the center of the stage—it was Sarah.Nelson also saw the bride, but with his nearsightedness and Sarah's stunning appearance today, though she looked somewhat familiar, he didn't make the connection.Guests at the tables watched the beautiful bride with admiration. "The Winters and Paterson children are truly exceptional—a perfect match of talent and beauty.""Indeed. I heard the families have been friends

"Nelson, I suddenly realize that for these three years, I've been a complete fool. To think I loyally stood by someone l

There wasn't the slightest resemblance to Nelson anywhere."Doctor, is it possible you've given us the wrong baby?" Richard had been so excited about this child, and now he was equally terrified and angry.Restraining his emotions, he questioned the doctor.The doctor responded very carefully, "Mrs. Jackson was the only woman in labor. There's no possibility of a mix-up. If you don't believe me, you can immediately request a paternity test."The doctor made this suggestion mainly because he worried that when Lucy regained consciousness and saw the baby, she might cause a scene at the hospital. So he suggested they take both mother and child for paternity testing.The doctor's words left Richard completely hopeless.Nelson was on the verge of collapse. People gathered around him, looking at his ashen face, wanting to say something but unable to find any words."Karma. This is all karma..." Nelson said, suddenly breaking into laughter. He had betrayed Sarah, so he deserved to be m
