170.Chapter 170
While they were eating, Irene served Jonathan some food and started talking about his car. “Why did you let Teresa drive your car? Leven wondered why your car wasn’t in the garage and told Heidi about it.”
Jonathan frowned, pretending not to hear. He had just gotten home and was annoyed by such comments “Let’s just eat and not talk about it,” he said curtly
Nonetheless, Irene persisted. Today, in front of your aunt, I must lecture you. It’s men three years since the divorce, Teresal s your ex wife! Who lets their ex–wife use their car? Aren’t you afraid people will laugh at you?”
Jonathan instantly lost his appetite. He placed his fork down and calmly retorted, “Is it illegal to let my ex–wife drive my car?” “You” Irene fumed. “Heidi, look at your nephew! He’s driving me crazy. He just can’t forget that woman
Heidi supported Irene. “Jonathan, your mother is right. You’re handsome and wealthy Don’t waste your time on one woman. A sensible person does not dwell on the past.”
“Heidi, I’m not sensible.” With that, Jonathan left the dining table.
Donald stood up. I’ll go check on Jonathan.”
Edward also lost his appetite. He got up, saying, “Mom, stop. Also, Irene, Jonathan’s just getting over a fever. Can’t you let him eat his hot meal in peace? He’s had it rough for always being on the move.” With that, he left.
Irene looked helplessly at Heidi. “See? It’s always my fault somehow.”
Heidi patted Irene’s shoulder, “Don’t be upset, Irene. Young people don’t understand. Tomorrow’s the 19th. We should visit Dad!”
Irene calmed down a bit. “Another year has gone by so quickly.”
“I know, right?” said Heidi.
January 19th was Irene and Heidi’s father, Gordon Zimmer’s birthday. He was over 70 this year. However, Gordon was peculiar, unlike the endearing Hayden.
Gordon preferred living alone at his old home and didn’t like being disturbed or making phone calls. Every year, Irene and Heidi would make a quick visit and leave some money to show respect.
If trene and Heidi stayed too long, Gordon might yell or even hit someone
After all, Gordon was Irene and Heidi’s biological father. They must visit him at least once a year. Whenever this time arrived, Irene and Heidi would get worried. They exclaimed inwardly, “Here comes another round of beating!
Early the next morning, Irene and Heidi set off for Fairlake. After traveling so far to see their dad, a few flower pots came crashing toward them as soon as they stepped inside.
“Get out! Didn’t I tell you? Don’t come see me unless you find Fiona!” Gordon yelled.
“Dad, you need to accept that Mom passed away a long time ago!” Heidi said helplessly. “It’s been years, and she left a farewell note=”
Before Heidi could finish her sentence, another flower pot came crashing toward her. It landed right by her feet, startling her enough to step back and yell, “Ah!”
Tears welled up in Gordon’s eyes as he trembled and said, “Fiona will never die! She’ll come back to me one day!”
Irene and Heidi didn’t dare say a word.
It was clear that Gordon could only live for another few years. He grew weaker each year, his hands trembled more, and he seemed to be holding on just to see Irene and Heidi’s birth mother
Irene and Heidi were fraternal twins born five minutes apart. Their father was Gordon, and their mother was Fiona Zimmer Right after they were born, they were taken away by a malicious mistress who was infatuated with Gordon
To create discord between Gordon and Fiona, the mistress bribed the doctor and lied to Fiona, telling Fiona that both Fiona s children had tragically passed away.
Devastated, Fiona fell apart. Meanwhile, Gordon, influenced by the mistress, believed that Fiona was still attached to her childhood sweetheart, who was also her old flame, and treated her with cold indifference.
Whenever Gordon saw Irene, he would go crazy, asking if she had stolen Fiona’s face One time, he even grabbed Irene by the neck, maxiously asking where Fionn was.
Due to that. Irene didn’t want to visit. She would always visit with Heidi. Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to come alone
