Chapter 367 This Is My Daughter
But now, the girl Nicole had only dreamed of stood right in front of her.
No, she was even more stunning than Nicole had ever imagined.
Nicole had thought her daughter might resemble her or her father, but she never expected a girl could blend the best features of both parents so perfectly. This was beyond her wildest dreams.
As Nicole gazed at Josephine, a wave of emotions washed over her, leaving her at a loss for words.
It was a feeling she couldn't describe, but it surged through her, making her heart race.
"Mom," Gerald called out, but she was lost in her own world; her focus was solely on Josephine.
Josephine couldn't see anyone else either; her gaze was fixed on Nicole.
When she meet Gerald, Josephine didn't feel much. Even knowing Gerald was her biological brother, she felt more shock than joy.
But at this moment, looking at Nicole, Josephine suddenly felt a deep sense of grievance and wanted to cry.
So, Nicole watched as Josephine's tears began to fall.
Josephine didn't make a sound, just cried silently.
Nicole felt a sharp pain in her heart. She looked at Josephine and asked Gerald, "Gerald, what's going on?" Her voice was trembling.
Seeing Josephine cry like this, Gerald couldn't wait any longer. He said directly, "Mom, this is Josephine. She's the Lily we've been searching for! We've found your daughter!"
Nicole was stunned and swayed. Ulysses quickly supported her.
"What did you say? She... she really is..." Before Nicole could finish her sentence, she saw Josephine's tears and couldn't help but start crying too.
Nicole couldn't speak, her eyes blurred with tears. She looked at Josephine and suddenly stepped forward to hug her tightly. She cried out loud, startling everyone else.
Gerald had never seen Nicole like this in his entire life.
Even when Josephine was lost, she only cried silently, as if her tears would never end. But now, it was as if she had found an outlet and was releasing all her emotions.
Josephine cried even harder.
Gerald's tears also couldn't be stopped.
Ulysses was stunned, and as he watched, his eyes grew hot, and he couldn't help but sniffle and wipe his eyes.
Laura was recording with her phone, her vision blurred by tears.
Gerald supported Nicole, "Mom, stop crying, don't make yourself sick."
But Nicole was lost in her emotions. She clung to Josephine tightly, unwilling to release her.
Back then, Josephine was so small when she was lost. Not being able to find Josephine was her fault as a mother; she had lost her. This time, she would hold her tightly and never let go!
Finally, Gerald had no choice but to say to Josephine, "Josephine, let Mom sit down first. You can talk, but don't cry. Mom's health isn't good."
Josephine wiped her tears and gently patted Nicole's back.
"Lily... my daughter." Nicole sobbed, still unwilling to let go of Josephine.
"Let's sit down and talk." Josephine had to support her arm and help her sit down.
Nicole held her hand, tears still streaming down.
This was her daughter. Without a doubt, this was her daughter. There was no need for a test; she knew Josephine was her child.
When Nicole finally calmed down, Gerald spoke up, "Mom, if you keep feeling unwell, Josephine's gonna feel so guilty."
Josephine wiped away Nicole's tears. "Please don't cry. I'm back, and I'm not going anywhere."
But with that, Nicole's tears started falling again.
Josephine sniffled, tears welling up in her eyes, "Please, Mom, don't cry."
Nicole's eyes widened, tears streaming down once more, "What did you call me?"
"You are my mom," Josephine cried, looking at her, "Mom, I'm back. I'm so sorry for making you wait all these years."
"My child!" Nicole hugged Josephine and cried out loud again.
Josephine was about to hug her back when suddenly, the crying stopped.
Nicole had gotten too emotional and fainted! Everyone was startled. Fortunately, Josephine was a doctor. After a quick check and some treatment, Nicole woke up.
Before she even opened her eyes, she said, "My child, my daughter."
Josephine held her hand, "Mom, I'm here, I'm right here."
Gerald chimed in from the side, "Mom, calm down. If you keep crying, you'll really scare Josephine!"
Nicole was much better than before. She looked at Josephine, not wanting to blink.
"Your name is Josephine?" Nicole said, liking it more and more, "What a beautiful name."
Finally, they could have a normal conversation. And Ulysses finally believed that this really was his biological aunt.
Nicole looked at Josephine, liking her more and more. Knowing what Nicole wanted to know, Gerald briefly explained Josephine's story.
Josephine also talked about her upbringing. What she did as a kid, what high school she attended as a teen. Finally, she mentioned Jeffery.
"I have a grandson?" Nicole was overjoyed, "Why didn't he come with you?"
Josephine quickly said, "He did. I'll call him to come over."
Laura quickly offered, "I'll make the call!"
Josephine nodded and continued talking with Nicole.
Soon, Stuart brought Jeffery over.
Nicole had just fainted and was now lying on the bed. She asked Josephine to help her sit up. When she saw Jeffery come in, she couldn't take her eyes off him.
"Is this my grandson?" Nicole's voice choked, "Come here, let me see!"
Josephine went over to bring him closer and said to him, "Jeffery, this is Grandma."
"Grandma?" Jeffery looked up at her, "Is this the grandma you told me about before?"
Josephine shook her head, "No. This is my biological mom, your biological grandma."
Jeffery was relieved and immediately stood obediently in front of Nicole's bed, "Grandma!"
Nicole's heart melted instantly. She pulled Jeffery to sit down, looking at him over and over, holding him in her arms, "Oh! Grandma's good boy!"
Gerald whispered to Ulysses, "You're done for. You'll be out of favor from now on."
Ulysses said, "Jeffery is young. I'll let him have it."
Gerald said, "I mean, you better behave from now on, or no one will help you when I beat you up."
Ulysses glanced at him. Gerald raised an eyebrow.
Nicole and Josephine were too engrossed to pay attention to them. But Jeffery walked over and looked up at Gerald, calling out, "Uncle?"
Gerald squatted down, "Jeffery, I'm your uncle. This is your cousin, Ulysses. He's got your back from now on."
