Chapter 174 Name Change
“There’s nothing wrong with going to Florida for kindergarten…”
Edwin pulled a long face, and he said impatiently, “Don’t worry about the kindergarten. Leave it to me.”
“But about Florida…”
“They can just drop out. After all, they are just in kindergarten now. They can go to school in
Philadelphia.”
Philadelphia was much bigger than Florida.
There were several kindergartens for children from rich families in Philadelphia.
Julianna couldn’t help but frown.
It seemed that he was serious about meddling in the children’s affairs.
Given the situation, she could only endure.
“Alright then. It’s time to send them back.”
“Ann, Mommy, we don’t want to go back…” Alex and Bruce hid behind Julianna.
They didn’t want to be apart from Julianna anymore.
“Edwin, why don’t we let them stay here?”
“This is the hospital. They shouldn’t stay here.
“Go back now.”
Julianna had no choice but to squat down and coax the two boys, “Guys, go back now. Mommy will pick
you up another day.”
“What another day?”
She paused and then said, “When Ann is discharged from the hospital, Mommy will go and pick you up.
“You know Mommy has to spend all the time taking care of Ann right now. Be good, OK?”
The two boys pouted and said with a grievance, “Alright then.”
“Ann, we’ll come to see you another day.”
Ann looked at Alex and Bruce reluctantly. “OK. Bye, Alex. Bye, Bruce.”
“Kason, send the boys back.”
“Yes, Mr. Keaton.
“Children, let’s get back.”
“Goodbye, Mommy. Goodbye, Ann.”
“Bye, my babies.” Julianna squatted down and kissed Alex and Bruce on the faces.
Alex and Bruce turned around and left reluctantly.
“The patient is recovering well. She can undergo a second operation tomorrow.”
“Thank you, doctor.”
“You’re welcome. This is what we should do.”
The second day arrived.
When everything was ready, the second operation began.
When Edwin was about to be pushed into the operating room, Julianna looked at him gratefully. “Thank
you, Edwin.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ann is my daughter. Even if you don’t beg me, I will still save her.”
Soon.
The second operation was over.
After the doctor left the ward, his face was full of joy. “The operation was very successful. The chances of
recovery are very
promising.”
“Thank you! That’s wonderful!” Julianna could not help but cry because of her great happiness.
She thought, I want nothing but Ann to be well, to be alive.
I am willing to give anything in exchange for Ann’s life.
Edwin was pushed back to the ward.
“Mr. Keaton, Mrs. Keaton will be back today,” Andy rushed in and reported.
“Is that so?”
“Yes.”
“Help me up. I’ll go and pick up Grandma.”
Before Edwin could get up, the door of the ward had already been opened.
Melina sat in a wheelchair while being pushed in by Savion.
“Grandma, why are you here?”
After Melina came back from Canada, she directly came to the hospital to visit Edwin. She didn’t even
have the time to go
home.
“Edwin, you still didn’t listen to me, did you?” Melina couldn’t help but let out a long sigh when she saw
that Edwin donated
his bone marrow after all.
“Grandma, Ann is my daughter. I can’t stand by while seeing her suffer.”
“Sigh. Fine. At least the operation was successful.
“By the way, I talked to you before about changing the kids‘ names. How is it going?”
Edwin froze, and he frowned as he persuaded Melina, “Grandma, let’s get back to it after Ann recovers.”
“Why do we have to wait till she recovers? It won’t affect her recovery.”
“Mrs. Keaton, we have the names ready,” Savion replied solemnly.
“Alex will be Josh Keaton, and Bruce will be Zain Keaton.
“The names can come into effect right away.”
“Very good.” Melina nodded in satisfaction.
“Grandma, let’s talk about this later, OK? Julianna hasn’t agreed. If you insist on doing this, she will be
sad.”
Melina’s face darkened as she said, “They belong to the Keaton family. Of course, they have to take the
surname of our family.
“She can go to a lawyer if she wants.”
“Grandma…”
“Ahem.” Melina coughed weakly.
Edwin couldn’t say anything else.
Melina was very weak. He could not bear to go against her wishes.
Soon, Julianna heard about the name change.
“What?
“Edwin, you said you’d change Grandma’s mind.”
Edwin sighed, “Julianna, I hope you look at the bigger picture.
“Grandma is not in good health, and she wants the kids to become members of the Keaton family
officially. Can you grant that?”
Julianna was very angry. “Edwin, how could you go back on your word?
“I was kind enough to let the kids accompany her. How could you snatch them away like this?”
“Julianna, no one is trying to snatch them. You are still the mother of the kids,” Edwin said after a pause.
“They are my kids as well. I, Edwin, am their father.
“Since they are my kids, of course, they will take my sumame. There is nothing wrong with changing their
names now.”
“No! Absolutely not,” Julianna refused sternly.
“They are my kids! None of you can take them away from me!”
Edwin choked in anger. He gritted his teeth and roared, “Julianna, why are you so stubborn?
“Do you have any idea how many women want to give birth to children for me?
“They should feel lucky to have Keaton as their surname!”
Julianna said furiously, “Maybe it’s true for others!
“But not me! I never thought being a part of the Keaton family was a great honor!”
Edwin looked at Julianna angrily.
“Julianna, I don’t want to argue with you. You have no choice but to agree to this.”
“No! I will take my kids away.
“I’m their guardian. You have no right to do this.”
As Julianna spoke, she stood up and was about to look for Melina.
“Julianna, stop right there.
“Grandma is not in good health. She shouldn’t be stimulated.
“Let me talk to her.”
Edwin knew Julianna. He had no choice but to persuade Melina again.
Melina was furious when she heard that Julianna did not agree.
“If she really doesn’t agree, here’s another solution.
“The two boys will live with us. She can have Ann.”
Edwin looked worried. “She won’t agree to that, Grandma. Unless I remarry her.”
Hearing that, Melina frowned and looked at Edwin. “What do you think?”
“I…” Edwin was in a mess.
“Are you going to marry Katelyn or remarry Julianna?”
Edwin thought, I can remarry Julianna,
But it seems that she doesn’t want to remarry me.
Besides, Katelyn and I have come to this point.
If I break up with Katelyn, maybe she’ll try to kill herself again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI don’t want anyone else to risk their life over this.
The only thing I can do now is take care of Katelyn,
:
In the Reece’s place.
“Mom, what should we do now?”
“Humph! Julianna uses her kids to keep Mr. Keaton by her side. Why can’t you do better? You let me
down!” Shayla looked
annoyed.
Katelyn said angrily, “Edwin doesn’t even want to touch me. What else can I do?”
“Didn’t I tell you before? You can drug him.”
“Is that going to work?” Katelyn frowned.
“Why not? We have to give it a try no matter what. We can’t let that bitch win!
“Call him now!”
“OK.”
Beep! Beep!
Edwin’s phone rang.
“Yes.”
“Edwin.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Are you in the hospital now?”
“Yes.”
“I made soup for you. I’ll bring it to you now.”
“No need.”
“You must be very weak after two surgeries.
“I made the soup for you. I put in a lot of expensive ingredients. Have some, OK?”
Edwin said impatiently, “I said no need.”
“You don’t want Julianna to see me, right?
“It’s fine. She can have some, too.”
“Hey…”
Katelyn had already hung up the phone.
Half an hour later.
Katelyn came to the hospital with the thermos.
Edwin was arguing with Julianna, and they suddenly heard someone knock on the door.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me.
“Edwin, Julianna.
“I’m not intruding, am I?”
“No,” Julianna replied coldly and left the ward.
