To be honest, Edna and your mother were best friends from childhood and they knew each other very well. If this hadn't happened, maybe they would have been friends for a lifetime. But her good friend held her husband tightly and caused her to lose her unborn daughter, which really hurt your mother. So her condition was really terrible then. If Edna hadn't said these words to irritate your mother, she would not have become sober. In a way, Edna's plan of getting your mother active worked at that time. After that, Edna accepted her father's arrangement and married Gary. Then she left Imperial Capital with him. Since then, there had been no connection between your mother and Edna. Even when Gary was recalled to Imperial Capital after a few years, they both avoided seeing each other." Sean sighed deeply when he mentioned the past.
"Jesus! Edna caused my mother to lose her daughter? No wonder my mother reacted so fiercely when she heard Edna's name." Zed was shocked by the truth and sighed.
Jean sighed as well. "A woman's life is really not easy, especially our mother's. Zed, we must be nicer to Mother in the future. I didn't expect she had suffered such a tragedy in her life." Jean's eyes turned a little red when she spoke these words. She was also going to be a mother, and naturally felt Jade's pain at that time.
Sean, who was ignored by both of them, looked at them bitterly and remorsefully. "If you want to scold me, just do it! If I had pushed Edna away immediately, your mother would not have rolled down the stairs. I am the one responsible for all the trouble. It's because I'm such a jerk that your sister wasn't born. I am the reason behind your mother's sadness." Sean covered his face with his hands in pain.
"Father, it's over, so don't blame yourself anymore. If mother really blames you, then she wouldn't still be living with you. As you said just now, mother and Edna were best friends and knew each other very well. So deep down, mother must know that nothing happened between you that day. Otherwise, she would have left you."
Sensing his pain, Jean hurried to comfort him.
"You're right." Sean nodded in agreement as soon as he heard the words. Somehow, Jean's words managed to control his emotions. "I always wanted to explain things afterward, but your mother never let me. In the days that followed, it seemed as if it had never happened, but I knew she carried a lot of pain with her."
"Father, mother doesn't need your explanation. All she needs is your love. Now that she is willing to travel around the world with you, you have to put your past behind. So you better stop grieving and blaming yourself," Jean continued in her comforting tone.
Hearing Jean's words, Sean looked at her excitedly. "I feel much more comfortable after confiding in you both. Earlier, I felt like a culprit. But today, I can feel the weight lift off my shoulder," he said in a choked voice.
Zed and Jean saw the pain on Sean's face fade away and was replaced with relief. They smiled and nodded. "Father, it's all over. My biggest wish is to see you and my mother live together happily," Zed said.
"Yes." Jean chimed in and said,"Father, now that Zed and I are about to have a baby, you and mother are going to be grandparents. You should be happy."
"Who said it was over?" Jade, who had been away, suddenly appeared at the stairway and stared at Sean with a cold face. "In the past, I have never spoken about it with Sean. That's only because I wanted to give Zed a happy life. Now that Edna is appearing, I would like to talk about it. Sean, don't you have each other in your hearts? Go back to her now!"
Jade's face was furious and her eyes were glaring at Sean fiercely.
Sean hadn't expected Jade to pop up. There was a flash of embarrassment on his face. He stood up somewhat bewildered and looked at her, not knowing how to explain it.
Zed and Jean looked at each other and then sighed heavily.
"Mother, father and Edna were innocent. Why do you say such words to sadden him?" Zed hurried up to Jade and led her closer to Seam, trying to improve the situation.
"Innocent? If they were innocent, I wouldn't have seen them hugging. Not to mention that it has happened a long time ago, but he still remembered it vividly. You heard what he said just now. He himself admitted that he was a little moved when Edna held him. Sean, since you are interested in her, why don't you go to her? Why are you still here?"
The more Jade talked, the angrier she became. Her red face depicted the fury she was feeling.
