"Mom, don't you feel wronged at all? How can you endure this?" Yvonne said.
She couldn't imagine how her mother had managed to endure all this over the years.
"Even if it was for the sake of love, love isn't supposed to be so one-sided! Isn't love about mutual giving? But what has Dad given you?"
All these years, Geoffrey had been taking from Xyla, while Xyla willingly let him. She had been really foolish.
"Vonnie, I know you feel sorry for me, but I made these choices. Love can take many forms, not just one. I'm willing to be that fool. Over the years, your dad hasn't loved me, but I can't find fault with him in any other way. Perhaps this is also a punishment from heaven because I insisted on marrying a man who didn't love me. I'll just have to bear this suffering myself."
"Why should you be punished? Dad married you for his own reasons. If there's punishment to be dealt, it should be to him!"
"Vonnie, he's still your father. No matter what happens between him and me, he has never mistreated you. Please don't speak of him that way. Can you do it for my sake?" Xyla asked earnestly.
Yvonne wiped her tears away. "Mom, does he know you speak up for him? He only thinks of other women. Why are you so kind? Sometimes it really makes me angry. If you weren't so kind, Dad might not have divorced you or been so obsessed with Sydney."
"There are already enough bad people in this world. I don't want to be one more bad person," Xyla said. Her gaze was gentle, but filled with helplessness.
"Mom…" Yvonne was crying uncontrollably, her face wet with sweat and tears.
Xyla's gaze fell back to the red marks on her daughter's neck.
"Vonnie, you still haven't told me what happened to your neck?"
Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Unrealistic. What a comedy. If Sebastian and Rosalie are cousins, their families must have already prevented them to be together abroad. Isn't it bizarre that nobody is doing something to let them know of their family relationship? And pls stop putting Aurora in a high pedestal. Your readers want Rosalie to be genuinely happy,free of stupid misunderstanding. Thank you....
Another garbled story with lots of gibberish. Absolute rubbish. I got to chapter 26 and can't anymore...
Too many people involve.. sigh~ this is like the most angst novel i've read.....
I just wish one thing...that the writer will not bring too many unnecessary and unrealistic twists,too many misunderstanding,miscommunication that gives the reader the hint not to continue with the novel. In the long run, We lost our interest in this kind of unending plot....
Thanks for the update !...
