CHAPTER 467 GIFT FROM SAM'S MOTHER

The Smith family was in the States, so it was night time when they arrived.

Yvonne couldn't go through the long flight and fell asleep. She didn't even wake up when the plane landed. In the end, Sam carried her off the plane and pushed her in a wheelchair.

As for the hospital, Sam’s mother had made the arrangement, so Sam took Yvonne over there directly.

It was noon when Yvonne woke up the next day.

She listened to the deliberately low voice in her ear, moved slightly, and opened her eyes.

"Ah, Yvonne's awake," a gentle female voice sounded.

Yvonne looked at her subconsciously. After seeing her face clearly, she was surprised. "Mom?"

Sam’s mother was the one who spoke.

When Sam’s mother heard Yvonne calling her ‘Mom,’ her heart melted and her eyes were red. Then, she answered, "It's Mom, it's Mom."

Yvonne tried her best to sit up.

When Sam’s mother saw that, she glared at her son who was on the side. "What are you dazing off for?

Help your sister up."

Sam raised his eyebrows and shook his head dubiously. Then, he stepped forward to help Yvonne sit on the bed.

"Mom, what are you doing here? This is..." Yvonne looked around at her surroundings.

Sam's mother sat beside her bed and held her hand affectionately. "This is the hospital and I came here to see you, Yvonne. It’s great that we finally meet!" i

Yvonne blushed and lowered her head. "Well... I'm very happy too."

Sam's mother's expression became more loving. "Your dad can't make it since he has something to do at the company. He’ll come see you when he has time."

"It doesn’t matter. He... he can come at any time," Yvonne said and waved her hand.

She had never met Sam's father nor had she spoken to him, let alone call the man her father.

So at this moment, she couldn't address him that way and she was too embarrassed to say it.

She felt like she couldn’t wait to become the daughter of the Smith family if she said it and that wouldn't look good.

"Yvonne is very considerate." Sam’s mother smiled cheerfully and immediately thought of something. She then asked Sam to bring her bag over.

She rummaged in her bag and found a small gift box for Yvonne. "Yvonne, this is a gift from your father and me."

"A gift?" Yvonne was surprised by the sudden behavior of Sam's mother. When she came to her senses, she shook her head and refused. "Mom, take it back. I can’t accept this."

She felt ashamed to accept the gift as it was only their first meeting.

However, Sam’s mother insisted on it. "Yvonne, this is a gift from a mother to her daughter. How can I take it back? Be nice and take it!"

After speaking, she put the gift box into Yvonne's hand directly.

Yvonne turned to Sam for help.

Sam shrugged. "Mom's right. This is a gift for her daughter, so you should keep it. Besides, I should've prepared a gift for you as an elder brother, but I never thought of this. I'll make it up to you next time."

"No..."

"You can't refuse!" Sam directly cut Yvonne off when she was about to refuse.

Yvonne opened her mouth and she was speechless. She lowered her head, feeling touched and complicated at the same while looking at the small gift in her hand.

Sam's mother touched her face. "Open it and see if you like it?"

Yvonne looked at Sam's mother. With her encouraging

eyes, she nodded subconsciously. "Okay."

Afterwards, Yvonne pulled the ribbon on the gift box and opened it. It was very luxurious and contained a beautiful sapphire necklace.

When she saw the necklace, Yvonne shook her hand while holding the gift box and her mouth was wide open. "This... this is too expensive!

Sam's mother covered her mouth and laughed, "How i s that expensive? My daughter deserves the best.

Come on, let me put it on for you!"

She reached for the box in Yvonne's hand and was about to take the necklace out.

But Sam stopped her. "Mom, it’s not convenient for Yvonne to wear it in her current condition. Let her wear it when she shows up for the party that we're going to hold for her in the future."

When Sam's mother heard this, she looked at Yvonne’s appearance for a moment and nodded reasonably. "You're right, I'm not thoughtful enough. Well then, wear it at the party."

After speaking, she put the necklace back in the box and returned it to Yvonne.

Yvonne was relieved that she didn't have to wear such a valuable necklace, and then she asked in confusion," What party?"

"Well, we’re going to hold a party for you to announce the return of the daughter of the Smith family," Sam replied.

Yvonne pursed her lower lip worriedly. "Won't the people find out that I'm not the real Shannon? It doesn’t matter if they break me down, but I'm worried about Grandma. She finally met her long-lost granddaughter, but if someone tells her that her granddaughter is fake, she won't be able to accept it."

Sam looked at Yvonne with his kind eyes. "Yvonne, you're such a kind child. Don't worry, no one will break the news. When Shannon died, we didn't announce it to the public at that time. Even Shannon's funeral was held secretly. The public only knows that the daughter of the Smith family is in poor health and has been in a nursing home."

Sam continued, "That's right. After so many years, the outside world should have long forgotten about what Shannon looks like. With your appearance now, we can say that the daughter of the Smith family has recovered and is healthy now."

Yvonne understood and she no longer worried about i t. However, she still couldn't be happy.

She raised her hand and touched the bandages on her face. "That's good, but I don't know if I can still recover in this condition. If I can't recover, you guys won’t be able to hold that party."

Upon hearing this, Sam’s mother and Sam looked at each other, then laughed out loud.

Yvonne had a question mark on her mind. She didn't know what they were laughing at.

"I haven't told you yet. We were just talking about this before you woke up.” Sam’s mother looked at her gently.

Yvonne tilted her head. "What's the matter?”

"It's the burn on your body.” Sam pointed to the bandages on her face and body. "A top medical and aesthetic expert came to diagnose you in the morning, but you were asleep, so you don't know about it. After checking on your burn degree, he gave us an answer!"

"What’s the answer?" Yvonne’s heart pounded like thunder.

Sam replied with a smile, "The answer is that it can be cured!"

Yvonne was stunned.

After a while, she regained consciousness. Her body trembled with excitement and tears of joy flowed from her eyes. Even the words she spoke were stuttered with joy, "Can it really be cured?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Yes, it's true. Dr. Peter is the best medical and aesthetic expert in the States. If he says that it can be cured, it can definitely be cured.” Sam nodded with certainty.

Yvonne's mouth shriveled and she cried.

Both Sam's mother and Sam knew that she was too happy, so they didn't stop her from crying.

When she was almost done crying, Sam said, "Dr.

Peter did skin research three years ago. He wanted to make synthetic human skin for patients who needed skin transplants. As you know, many people who have skin grafts have obvious skin color differences, and some of the stitches are even visible."

"I know, this happens because the patient’s skin can't completely blend in with the transplanted skin," Yvonne answered.

Sam gave her an admiring look. "Yes, and Dr. Peter is a perfectionist. He doesn't want his patients to face those circumstances, so he's been studying artificial skin that can be completely blended with the patient's original skin."

Upon hearing this, Yvonne took a bold guess. "Did he succeed in his research?"
