Chapter 1038

Yeager had shipped his parents back home. Now Hailey can chill and focus on running her club, while

Eleanor was prepping for the court stuff

The night before the court hearing, she couldn’t catch a wink of sleep. When she went downstairs for a

drink, Nina, holding a little pellow, walked up to her, and gently pulled

on her robe.

“Eleanor, don’t sweat it. I’ll definitely pick you.”

Eleanor’s heart warmed, she put down her glass, squatted down and looked at Nina eye to eye.

“Why are you still up”

Nina tilted her head and grinned.

Tm just like you, can’t sleep”

Seeing Nina’s innocent smile, Eleanor also smiled softly back.

“Are you nervous too?”

“Totally”

Nina didn’t hide her feelings at all.

“Sometimes, I do miss the days in G country, but compared to you, those don’t matter!

Aside from teaching her how to shoot, Casey had always been good to her, let her grow up carefree,

and sometimes spoilt her rotten.

Of course, she was also happy during the time with her biological father in G country.

Thinking of Ethan Ziegler, Nina’s eyes started to well up….

“Eleanor, if Ethan was still alive, you and my grandma wouldn’t need to go to court.”

Hearing this, Eleanor was taken aback, suddenly recalling Ethan’s carefree manner, her heart

clenched.

No matter what someone did in their life, once they’re gone, the bad parts fade away, leaving only the

good parts behind.

In her memory, Ethan’s features and face had all become blurred, but she could never forget his tight

grip on her hand before he died, urging her to take good care of Nina

Thinking about Ethan brought tears to her eyes, so she held them back, not wanting Nina to see her

sorrow, and embraced the little girl.

“Nina, parting due to death is something we all have to face in life. Your father just left a bit earlier, but

his love for you is still here.”

Nina seemed to understand Eleanor’s words, curling up in her arms and nodding lightly.

“Then Eleanor, will you and Bernard also leave me like this one day?”

Eleanor reached up and patted her little head gently.

“We’re older than you, so it’s normal for us to leave first.”

Nina’s eyes filled with tears. Then won’t I be left alone in this world?”

Eleanor reassured her. “Not at all. I will have a baby in the future, and the new baby will grow up with

you, so you won’t be alone”

Hearing this, Nina stopped crying and looked at Eleanor’s belly.

“Then Eleanor, when will you have a baby?”

The conversation came back to children again.

“Don’t rush, it will happen.”

Nina gave a hum, and curled up in Eleanor’s arms again, seeking comfort.

Looking at the tightly embracing adult and child, Bernard’s lips curled up slightly

In reality, as long as he was there, there was no need to worry too much about anything.

The custody trial began on time.

Chase was fully prepared, successfully leaving the opposing lawyer speechless.

In this case, the first choice for custody should have been Evelyn, no matter what, her odds of winning

should have been higher

But Chase based his argument on the deceased’s will, then brought up Evelyn’s adamant refusal to

accept her daughter–in–law, even going as far as to destroy evidence of the child’s parents, and

successfully convinced the judge.

Apart from Chase, George and Pearce also testified, accusing Evelyn of treating Emilia poorly, even

not allowing her to be buried with Ethan after her death.

They argued that such a mother couldn’t possibly be good to the child, plus the child herself wanted to

choose Eleanor, so the trial went extremely well.

The judge quickly announced in court that the custody of Nina would be awarded to Eleanor and her

husband.

Evelyn, who failed to win custody, watched Eleanor and Nina happily high five each other, a dark

shadow gradually filled her eyes.

When everyone left the court, Evelyn suddenly rushed over from behind, snatched Nina from Eleanor’s

hands, and held her in her own arms
