Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 22

The light was on in the balcony, and Sara's face was hidden in the darkness. Winnie couldn't see the expression on Sara's face clearly.

"Mrs. Sara, since you didn't have much food this afternoon, I made your favorite red bean cake. Have a try." As Winnie spoke, she put the red bean cake on the table. The color of the red bean cake was bright, making her mouthwatering.

With a faint smile, Sara said, "thank you, auntie Winnie. Please have a seat and chat with me. I'm really bored alone."

With a smile on her face, Winnie felt Sara seemed to be very different from usual. She was not as aloof as before, just as friendly as daughter, which made her can't help but get close to her.

"Have some cakes too, auntie Winnie." Sara handed a cake to Winnie, and Winnie reached out her hand to take the cake.

She had cooked so many cakes and tasty food, but she hadn't the mood to taste before. Winnie was moved.

"Mrs. Sara, you seem to be in a bad mood recently." Winnie took a bite of the red bean cake and asked cautiously.

"Something happened to my business, so I'm not in the mood. Auntie Winnie, just call me Sara."

Winnie nodded happily and said, "okay. Next time, when there are only two of us, I will call you Sara. If Mr. Jacob is here, I will still call you Mrs. Sara."

Nodding her head, Sara didn't say anything.

"Auntie Winnie, how many years have you served here?" Asked Sara.

"More than twenty years. When I first came here, Mr. Jacob was still very young. In a blink of an eye, He is already 30 years old." Winnie narrowed her eyes, as if she was recalling the past.

"Then what happened later?" Asked Sara, resting her head on her hand.

"Later, his mother died of cancer, so Mr. Jacob changed a lot in temperament."

"I've never heard of this before. I only heard that my mother-in-law passed away a long time ago, but I don't know these." Sara sighed that she didn't know much about Jacob.

"Let's talk about you, auntie Winnie." Sara changed the topic.

Winnie paused. For so many years, no one cared about what she had experienced in her life. She didn't expect that Sara would care about her.

"I'm a rural person. I got married at an early age. After my husband got sick, he needed a lot of medical fees, so I had to work as a nanny in the city. Fortunately, I met Mr. Jacob's mother, and she gave me a lot of money when she knew it, so I became a nanny and served here. However, my husband hadn't been cured and died in less than two years. And I don't children. I don't want to marry again, so I have been staying at home as a nanny in the Shi clan. Mrs. Mandy was really a good person. She not only paid me to train in cooking, but also brought me some clothes that I wouldn't buy... Unfortunately, God is blind. Such a good person passed away so early. " Winnie's face was full of sadness, as if the past was still vivid in her mind.

Taking a sip of wine, Sara thought, 'what a lonely life! No one cares about her. How did overcome those difficulties? If it were anyone else, they would have been unable to stand it anymore. But Winnie kept smiling all day long, which made Sara respect her.

In fact, those completely unknown or unrecognized by the public were not insignificant as those great men. It was just that the world had gone too far in pursuing the so-called meaning of life. Many people pursued meaning all their lives, but in fact, they were just deceiving themselves. No matter what the meaning was, what people wanted was just a more fulfilling life. Who could say that Winnie's life was not fulfilling?

Sara closed her eyes and didn't say anything more. The paleness of her words did not reveal her inner fluctuation. If it weren't for her indifference by nature, she would have been crying.

Winnie continued, "in fact, I'm not bored at all. I'm at home every day. I would clean the floor, and then water the flowers when I have time. Sometimes I learn how to cook new dishes from the video, and then go out to buy vegetables. Mr. Jacob didn't want me to bother to go to the market, saying that he had an assistant, but I still like to go by myself. After all, I can feel that I'm not aliniated from the world, so I enjoy going to the market every day. "

"Auntie Winnie, I'm sorry. We didn't care much about you before." Sara asked with concern.

"No, no, No. Mrs. Claire, you don't have to say that. This is the life I chose for myself. I can't blame anyone. But Mrs. Claire, you must be happy. Don't be too sad. Any obstacle in your life will be overcome. "

Looking at the bright smile on Winnie's face, she felt that her heart was almost melting. From childhood to adulthood, she had always been told to be strong in life. Everyone only knew what to say, but no one knew what to do. It turned out that being cured was such a simple thing.

Facing the night and the summer wind, she felt warm all over her body.
