Chapter 1248: Chapter 1245: Feelings Can Be Gradually Cultivated

"No matter what decision you make, Mom can understand."

"Madam White..." Annie Lawrence seemed to have cried her heart out, her shoulders trembling, and she sobbed, "Am I...am I not dreaming? Are you really my mother?"

"It’s true."

Madam White still couldn’t bring herself to like Annie.

However, seeing her own daughter cry like this, she couldn’t bear it.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she reached out, gently pulled Annie into her arms, and spoke tenderly, "As long as you’re willing to accept me, I’m of course your mother. Annie, don’t cry, it’s Mom who’s sorry for not finding you sooner. Are you willing to give Mom a chance to make amends?"

"Will you come home with Mom? Your dad, your brother Gary, and I will treat you well in the future."

Annie collapsed into her arms, hugging her and crying even more sadly.

She couldn’t stop sobbing, her body seemed to tremble.

Seeing her like this, Madam White was even more reluctant to part with her.

She thought, it didn’t matter if she didn’t like Annie now.

Feelings could gradually be cultivated.

And Annie’s flaws and shortcomings could be slowly corrected in the future.

She couldn’t reject her daughter just because she didn’t meet her expectations, unwilling to open her heart to accept her.

Even if Annie were a beggar now.

Would she abandon her then?

The fact that her Cecilia had survived safely until now was already a blessing.

As for other things, she shouldn’t ask too much.

With these thoughts, Madam White’s mood calmed down a lot, and she no longer found Annie as repulsive as at first.

She truly liked Joanna.

It’s just that, there was no mother-daughter fate between them in this lifetime.

However, Annie and Joanna were now sisters, so by recognizing Annie, she would also be essentially forming a mother-daughter relationship with Joanna.

After comforting herself with these thoughts, Madam White felt slightly better.

"I...I..." Although Annie was willing in her heart, a thousand times over, she pretended to be hesitant and troubled, "But, if I go back to the White family, my adoptive father and mother will definitely be sad."

"They raised me, I can’t...I can’t just abandon them."

Because of Annie’s words, Madam White’s impression of her improved instantly.

She liked filial children.

Annie was still thinking of her adoptive parents and considering their feelings, which added a lot of points in Madam White’s heart.

"Of course, we don’t want you to abandon them. You have a duty to your adoptive parents. If you abandon them, it would be so ungrateful. Annie, even if we acknowledge each other as mother-daughter, they are still your father and mother."

"Asking you to return to the White family isn’t asking you to abandon your previous home. In the future, whether it’s the Lawrence family or the White family, both will be your home. Our family still needs to show gratitude to your adoptive parents; they have done a great kindness to both you and the White family."

"If you’re willing, you can have two homes in the future."

"If you’re not willing..."

Before Madam White could finish speaking, Annie raised her tearful and swollen eyes, filled with longing, and said, "I’m willing, I’ve been thinking about you all for more than ten years. I’ve always wanted to find my birth parents."
