Chapter 491 I’ll Meet You In Midgard

Chapter 491 I’ll Meet You In Midgard

Ethan, who was now being hugged by his biological mother, closed his eyes and listened to her cries of sadness.

The moment his eyes landed on her for the first time, he felt a tug on his heart, which prompted him to call out mother, wanting to know if she had been the one who left him behind on that dark stormy night.

No.

That wasn’t it.

This wasn’t the first time that he had seen her.

When he went to clear the maze under the Dud Manor, he saw her for the first time.

Heck, he even fought against her.

He already had doubts back then if the woman he fought against was really his mother, and seeing her now, all the doubts he had disappeared completely.

“I’m sorry. I was wrong to leave you behind.” Catherine cried as she held Ethan tightly. “I was wrong. I’m sorry.” nove(l)bi(n.)com

She repeated those words over and over again, asking for forgiveness for the crime of abandoning her child.

Ethan would be lying if he said that he didn’t feel angry.

He would be lying if he said that he wasn’t feeling sad.

But to his surprise, he didn’t feel any hate toward her.

Maybe this was due to his upbringing. His adoptive grandparents had raised him with love and care, even spoiling him rotten.

They filled the role of his parents and loved him unconditionally.

Of course, there were times when he would feel envious of other children, especially those whose families went on trips with their parents or took a stroll together.

He couldn’t count the number of times he had wished to have his parents with him and feel what it was like to have a family.

A complete family.

All of these and more were denied to him while he was growing up.

But now, as he felt the warmth and wetness of his mother’s tears, he realized that he wasn’t the only one who had been hurting all those years.

This woman, who was his mother, had probably felt more pain than he ever did after their separation.

So, Ethan did what he felt like doing at this time.

He wrapped his arms around his mother and held her tightly.

Catherine giggled before cupping her son’s face.

“You’re not a small-time noble, Ethan,” Catherine said with a smile. “As for lands? You don’t have to worry about that either. You will know of it once you come to Midgard.”

Ethan smiled before nodding his head.

“Mother, it’s time for me to go.”

“Mmm.”

Ethan’s mother kissed her son’s forehead and looked into his eyes.

“I’ll meet you in Midgard,” Catherine promised. “Feel free to bring your lovers if you can. I would love to meet them.”

“Understood,” Ethan replied before kissing Catherine’s cheek. “See you soon, Mother. Be safe, always.”

“You too, Ethan.” Catherine hugged the young man tightly. “Be safe for my sake, my love.”

A moment later, Ethan’s Astral Body turned into particles of light.

The moment her son disappeared from her arms, Catherine once again covered her face and cried.

She had just reunited with her baby, and yet, they had to part again.

It made her feel sad all over again.

Suddenly, a pair of strong hands wrapped around her waist from behind as if showing support to her.

Catherine turned around and buried her head in her husband’s chest as she cried her eyes out for the second time.

But her tears were not just tears of sadness.

They were also tears of joy and relief, knowing that her son didn’t hate her.

After many years of heartache, Catherine felt as if she was given a second chance at life.

A second chance to become a mother.

With this warm and joyful feelings dancing in her heart, she wished with every fiber of her being for Ethan to come to Midgard soon.

So that both of them would be truly reunited at last.
