Jim’s declaration made Charles and Rosalyn exchange a nervous glance.
Rosalyn let out an exhale and fixated her earnest gaze on Jim’s face.
“Jim, you have to really consider this. You’ve refused when I wanted you to marry Bonnie, and now that
she’s ended up like this…
“As your parents, we don’t want you to go through the pain of losing a loved one not long after getting
married, and besides…”
She sighed.
“Now that Bonnie is still in a coma, how can you obtain a certificate of marriage with her?”
“I’ll take care of this.” Jim fell silent for a moment, then lifted his head to meet his mother’s gaze.
“I’ll find a solution to whether Bonnie can obtain a marriage certificate in her comatose state. As long as I
get your approval… none of this will be a problem.”
Charles paused when he heard this and instinctively glanced at Rosalyn.
A split second later, he let out an exhale and replied, “Jim, you should know that as your parents, we’d
rather you have a happy and complete family, not this.
“What if Bonnie doesn’t survive after seven days? How are you going to find Harvey another mother?”
“Bonnie is Harvey’s mother, and if she dies, I’m sure that Harvey won’t want to have a new mother,
either.” Jim sighed.
“All I need is your approval, and the rest won’t be a problem.”
“You…” Rosalyn sighed.
“Are you certain?”
Jim nodded solemnly.
“Yes, I’m certain.”
Previously, he had promised Harvey he would marry Bonnie only because she was Harvey’s birth
mother, but at this moment, he knew what he truly felt.
Just a few minutes ago, when Rosalyn declared that Bonnie might not be able to survive, it was the first
time Jim ever felt suffocated.
Jim had always thought that no matter how much something affected him emotionally, it would not
manifest as a physical symptom.
However, in that split second, he felt his heart ache.
Not only that, but he found it difficult to breathe all of a sudden.
He could not put a finger on what it felt like, but he knew it was because he could not bear to lose
Bonnie.
He could not bear to be without her. Even though he never admitted this to anyone, the truth was…he
had already fallen for her without realizing it. At the thought of this, Jim let out a deep sigh said, “I
sincerely hope you’ll approve of this marriage. If you don’t…” He let out a bitter chuckle. “I’ll make you
change your mind with whatever I have.”
Charles furrowed his brows when he heard this, whereas Rosalyn sighed in response” Whether we
agree or not won’t change your decision, will it?”
Jim nodded, “That’s right.”
Rosalyn let out a bitter chuckle. “Well, there’s no reason for us to object to this, as long as you won’t
regret your decision in the future.”
“I won’t.” Jim let out a small laugh, gave Charles and Rosalyn a bow, then strode into the room.
Standing motionless as he watched Jim leave, Charles finally turned to glance at Rosalyni,” Was it…right
of us to do this?” “I don’t know, but it wasn’t wrong, either.”
