Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 501: The Love Between Us…

Mommy is gone.

Even if she doesn’t want to, doesn’t wish to accept it, she still has to.

As Mommy’s daughter, she can’t let Mommy remain lying in the morgue; Mommy’s funeral arrangements are waiting for her to handle.

"Girl, Malcom is already handling your Mommy’s matters. You’re in a weak body condition now and need to rest well..." Charles Moore hurriedly spoke, following Serena Sterling.

Serena Sterling went to the morgue.

At this moment, Malcom Moore was there, keeping vigil, standing in for Serena Sterling, paying final respects to Victoria.

He could have directly taken Victoria home.

But Luna is not awake, and some things still require Luna to do personally; he cannot overstep the boundaries.

Seeing Serena Sterling approaching, Malcom Moore spoke with a hoarse voice, "Luna, shall we take our aunt home?"

Serena Sterling nodded, "Alright."

After speaking, she slowly knelt before Victoria’s remains, "Mommy, I’m taking you home."

The procedures at the hospital were completed, and the Sterling family’s hall of repose had been set up... All of this was arranged solely by Malcom Moore and Charles Moore. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Serena Sterling personally watched as Victoria was placed in the coffin, personally took her back to the Sterling Manor.

She, dressed in white, knelt before Victoria’s coffin, continuously crying, refusing food and drink, crying.

Within a year, she had sent off the two most important people in her life.

Oh, how cruel fate is.

Malcom Moore was heartbroken but knew persuasion was useless, so he could only accompany her, dressed in mourning as well, kneeling alongside her...

Serena Sterling cried for a long time, and eventually, she fainted from crying too hard.

Malcom Moore immediately carried her inside to rest, while he continued to kneel before Victoria’s coffin, receiving those friends and relatives who came to offer condolences.

Serena Sterling woke up, saw the environment she was in, and immediately got out of bed, stumbled outside, running to Victoria’s coffin.

She stared dumbly at everything before her, speaking in excruciating grief, "Malcom Moore, I’m begging you, whether I faint or not, let me stay here and guard Mommy, can you?"

Malcom Moore, distressed, nodded, "Alright."

Serena Sterling spoke no more, tears streaming down as she knelt by Victoria’s coffin, silently burning paper offerings.

Malcom Moore kept his promise, holding her tightly, allowing her to remain in his arms, accompanying her in sending her Mommy on her final journey.

Yet, as sorrowful, as anguished as she was, Serena Sterling didn’t forget the most important things: she needed to entertain all the friends and relatives, to grandly send Mommy off.

With Malcom Moore’s help, Serena Sterling meticulously organized the funeral, personally laid her Mommy Victoria to rest in the cemetery, alongside her daddy Lori Sterling.

From the moment Victoria passed away, Malcom Moore hadn’t left Serena Sterling’s side for even a moment.

He abandoned everything at Morris Group, constantly accompanying and guarding his girl, hoping his presence would soothe some of her pain.

Even if it couldn’t, he hoped his presence would let her feel warmth.

With his actions, he told her: he was always there, would always accompany her, guard her, she would never be alone...

Facing everything Malcom Moore did, Serena Sterling did not resist, only accepting it silently and despondently.

Three days later, having sent Victoria off, Serena Sterling finally succumbed, overwhelmed, falling ill.

She developed a high fever, unconscious.

Malcom Moore, heartbroken, immediately took Serena Sterling, in feverish unconsciousness, to the hospital.

Afterwards, he remained by her bedside, never leaving, guarding her.

The next day, Serena Sterling’s high fever subsided, and she awoke from her unconscious state.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man sitting there, asleep.

Serena Sterling did not wake him, nor make any sound, only silently watching the weary yet still handsome, charming man before her.

During these days, he didn’t leave her side, managing everything for Mommy’s funeral.

Mommy and Daddy made a good choice; he truly was a man worth marrying.

She would fulfill Mommy and Daddy’s wish, and marry him, regardless of how much he had hidden from her, or if he was with her merely to repay a debt; she no longer minded.

But that was all.

Mommy was gone, and between them, things were no longer the same.

Because of her obstinance, Mommy was hospitalized due to anger and finally passed away, forever leaving her.

Indeed, she was obstinate; she shouldn’t have done that!

But what about him?

If he hadn’t hidden things, had he explained everything truthfully, would she have acted so recklessly?

Probably not, right?

[The plane crossed the horizon of love

But couldn’t fly across my heart

The love between us

Can only be a memory for one

You’re far away

It makes me heartache

The sunlight shines in my eyes

Making me cry

You’re my only one

...]

Suddenly, Malcom Moore’s phone rang.

Upon hearing the ringtone, Malcom Moore opened his eyes.

Seeing Serena Sterling awake, he didn’t rush to answer the call but instead looked at her tenderly and spoke, "Honey, you’re awake?"

After speaking, he leaned forward, reaching out to feel Serena Sterling’s forehead.

Sensing her temperature was normal, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Good, no more fever."

After taking Serena Sterling to the hospital, he continuously stayed by her side. Her fever had subsided once in between, but soon after, it spiked again.

Later, when Serena Sterling’s temperature was controlled again, he sat there unaware of when he fell asleep.

So, the first thing he did upon waking was to check Serena Sterling’s temperature, ensuring she hadn’t developed a fever again.

Serena Sterling looked at Malcom Moore, reminding him, "Your phone is ringing."

"Yes, I know." Malcom Moore nodded before taking out the phone to answer.

The call was from Malcom Moore’s company.

Originally, due to the engagement, Morris Group’s stock prices plummeted, and the company faced pressure from various fronts.

Though most of it had been salvaged through Malcom Moore’s efforts afterward, as the new CEO of Morris Group, there’s still much for him to handle daily.

But since Victoria’s passing, Malcom Moore never went to Morris Group, remaining by Serena Sterling’s side.

Now the company called, hoping Malcom Moore could make a trip to the office.

Malcom Moore coldly refused, "Speak over the phone directly. I can’t leave from here, can’t..."

Serena Sterling reached out, tugging at Malcom Moore’s clothing.

Because of Serena Sterling’s action, Malcom Moore paused, halting his unfinished sentence.

Then, he told the person on the other end to "wait a moment," and gazed tenderly at Serena Sterling, "What’s wrong, Luna?"

Serena Sterling looked at Malcom Moore, speaking softly, "Go ahead; I’m fine."

Malcom Moore, worried about Serena Sterling, opened his mouth trying to say something, but her calm voice sounded again, "I’m really fine, go ahead."
