Crawling Back To Her Series Redemption and Refuse novel Chapter 126

Book10 Chapter15.

Side story 1.

After Charles and Evelyn divorce, the atmosphere in the Evans family remain gloomy for quite some time.

That unwelcome woman has finally left, but the anticipated relief never comes.

Charles has always been a man of few words, and post-divorce, he has become even quieter.

He is busy with work, either on business trips or on his way to them.

Even when he returns home, he often collapses into bed without a word.

Aaron, on the other hand, is blissfully unaware, dragging the nanny around, running here and there, and throwing tantrums whenever things don't go his way.

But one day, he suddenly asks, "Where's Mommy?"

The nanny doesn't know how to respond.

Aaron is smart. He crawls under tables, searches through the closet, and looks in the garden, but finds nothing.

Hmm? Where does Mommy go?

Children tend to forget quickly, but Aaron is clever. He can even vividly recall the last time he saw Evelyn.

That morning, before leaving, Evelyn has bent down with a smile and pats his head, saying, "Aaron, Mommy is leaving."

"I used to wish you were a good and obedient child, but now I understand you're different from me. You have the right to be willful."

"In the days to come, I hope you'll be happy."

At that time, Aaron hasn't taken those words to heart.

He has been annoyed by Evelyn's lectures and resented her controlling ways.

But in this moment, as he remembers her words and looks around the vast villa, realizing there is no trace of Evelyn in any corner, he finally begins to feel a twinge of sadness.

That evening, when Charles returns home, Aaron boldly takes hold of his hand.

"Dad, did you and Mommy have a fight?"

Charles stops in his tracks and looks down at him.

Aaron's innocent face is scrunched up with concern. "Can't you apologize to Mommy and make up? I haven't seen her in a long time."

"I want to eat the Buffalo Wings Mommy makes! Can we have that tonight?"

Charles watches the self-assured look on Aaron's face. At first, his expression is blank, but it gradually turns into a sinister smile.

"I didn't have a fight with her; I divorced her."
