Chapter 664 The Alternative
In fact, Dan had just fallen asleep. Selena said to her adoptive parents.
"Dad, Mom, Dan fell asleep in the bedroom. We can talk in the living room. What do you want to tell me?"
Elliot and Bailey looked at each other, then nodded to Selena.
"Selena, you have also seen the current situation. Your brother has remembered his past. The doctor said that he is mentally unstable now, but it is not as serious as when he was a child. I also believe that he can recover."
Then she asked Selena.
"Have you ever thought about how you two get along when your brother wakes up?"
This kind of question made Selena confused. She asked suspiciously.
"Brother is a very good person. He is in a bad mood now. I won't disturb him. If he is still willing to accept me as his sister, of course I will still get along with him in the same way as before. Does it need to be changed? "
Selena didn’t understand it. Even if her brother remembered the past, she had lived in the family with him for so many years. Now, it was nothing that he would love her so much, because she occupied the position of his biological sister. Maybe he would mind it.
But as long as he didn't hate her, she certainly hoped to continue getting along with him in the same way as before.
Selena’s answer made Elliot sigh. At that time, Jasper didn’t remember the past. Elliot was naturally angry that Selena gave birth to Jasper’s son. But after Dan disappeared suddenly for a long time, she
had changed her mind a lot.
Elliot didn’t speak. Bailey said to his daughter.
"What your mother meant is that you and Jasper are not biological siblings after all. Dan is Jasper’s biological son. Now that he already knows that, how about finding an opportunity to tell him about Dan’s matter. In fact, Jasper cares about you. You like him. Just find a chance to tell him the truth. When the time comes, our family will still be together. You will marry in and become his wife. What do you think?"
Selena stared at her parents blankly. She didn't expect that they would make such a suggestion.
In fact, she didn’t even dare to have this kind of thought. She only hoped that Jasper would be healthy for a lifetime and could see him from time to time. As for marrying him, it was just a wish. She never dared to think about it.
Now that her adoptive parents actually proposed it in person, Selena suddenly felt a little surprised. But when she thought of Jasper's condition, she immediately shook her head.
"He only remembered the past. I am the one who occupied your daughter’s position. Who knows when he can face this matter calmly? We can't tell him the truth now. Dan and I are very good now. In this life, as long as Jasper is healthy and Dan grows up happily, I have no other requirements. Whether or not I can marry him is not important. I only hope that he can be happy. He has always treated me as his sister. I don’t want him to bear too much truth now."
Hearing what Selena said, Bailey and Elliot looked at her with guilty.
"Since you think so, after Jasper feels better, maybe one or two years later, we will tell him the truth about the child. I didn't want him to know the truth back then, because he was too young to bear it. But
he is already an adult now. We don’t need to keep this from him for a lifetime. That may not be a good decision."
After Bailey finished speaking, he and Elliot stood up.
"Selena, we won't tell Jasper about this right away. You are right. He still needs the time to recover. When the time is right, we will discuss it again."
Selena nodded. She had gone through so many things. In fact, the love and attachment to Jasper were not so important for her anymore. As long as Jasper was healthy and the child grew up happily by her side, it was more important than anything else.
After she walked her parents out of the room, Elliot and Bailey returned to their room. Elliot spoke guiltily to her husband.
"Selena has been with us for so many years. But we hypocritically tested her. Actually, think about it, if Selena really marries Jasper, this will be a perfect ending. I did worry too much before." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
They didn’t really want to tell Jasper the truth. They were just afraid that Selena would find an opportunity to tell Jasper about Dan’s matter, so they just tried to test Selena.
But Selena was so frank and caring about Jasper so much. On the contrary, it seemed that they were a bit selfish.
"Don’t think too much. Selena has always been good. Now that we know what she thought, just trust her. The most important thing now is Jasper. I hope we can see our son earlier. Go to sleep. Let’s talk about it tomorrow."
Elliot could only nod. The couple lay in bed and began to rest. The next morning, everyone came to Jasper's ward again, and the psychiatrist came out of the ward and said to them.
Jasper's condition had stabilized, but it was not suitable for everyone to enter. The psychologist let Jasper's parents in first.
Elliot and Bailey were very excited. The two walked into Jasper’s ward cautiously. They immediately saw their son sitting on the bed in a patient gown. Their always energetic son looked a little sad at the moment. His face was even deathly pale, especially on his lips.
Elliot felt heartbreak. She stepped forward to hold her son's hand.
"Jasper, are you better now? Dad and Mom are sorry for you. We have been hiding things from you for so many years. Don't blame us, okay?"
After Elliot said this, Bailey comforted his son.
"Jasper, you are already an adult. You can get through it, right?"
Jasper looked up at his parents. Apart from the confusion and pain at first, he had already calmed down.
Just thinking of his biological sister, Jasper still felt sad. He had forgotten her sister for so many years and still loved the other sister as much, as if he had completely transferred those love to that alternative.
Yes, he felt a bit complicated about Selena now. He knew that it was not Selena's fault, but he just felt that the happiness that originally belonged to his biological sister had now been transferred to Selena. But Selena was actually just an alternative.
"Dad, Mom, I'm fine. I just want to go home immediately. I want to go to my sister's cemetery. She has a cemetery, right?"
