Chapter 426 She Was Not His One and Only
When Evelyn returned to the ward, Lucy was secretly wiping her tears with a tissue. Evelyn looked at her mother, sitting by the bed and in her fifties. She felt very upset. The previously peaceful days at home were disrupted by Jerry, causing turmoil and unrest. And now, because of Mia, his father was
so angered that he ended up in the hospital.
Evelyn felt that everything was because of herself. She felt she was willful and disobedient, and if she had been more diligent in living a steady life, even if she was alone, there wouldn’t have been so many twists and turns.
She owed her family too much.
Thinking of this, she almost burst into tears again. She quickly held back her tears, fearing that Lucy would be sadder if she
saw it.
She pushed the door open and went in. The ward was filled with all kinds of beeping sounds from medical equipment,
which sounded cold and ruthless.
“Mom, go and have a rest. I’ll stay here and watch.” Evelyn
patted her mother on the shoulder and choked with sobs.
Lucy grabbed her palm and sobbed, “Evelyn, we had always been honest and kind. Why are we still facing such a
situation…”
A bitter taste filled Evelyn’s throat, and she felt aching at the root of her tongue. Her mom was right. What had they done. wrong to deserve all this? They had been doing everything
right.
She suppressed the emotions and said, “Mom, I’m sorry. When Dad recovers, I’ll move out from there. I’ll listen to you, okay?”
Lucy had witnessed Huston’s actions. Several hours had passed, and it was the most critical time for Ben, yet Huston didn’t come to see him even once. She was deeply disappointed in him.
“Okay, when the time comes, go home with us. You still have a
home.”
Evelyn clenched her hand tightly and closed her eyes gently. “Yes, we can go home together.”
“Your father and I have never wanted you to find a rich man with good conditions. We can’t afford to marry into such a rich family. These people have seen too much and don’t know how to cherish love. In the end, it’s you who will suffer a loss.” Lucy
had a good impression of Huston before, but now that impression had deteriorated significantly.
Evelyn wanted to slap herself. Every word of Lucy was like a dagger stabbing into her heart. It was ridiculous that she had never known Huston truly after being with him for so long.
He was too deep and too guarded. She foolishly believed that those walls would never be used against her. Now, facing this
situation, she realized her regrets.
What love? What one and only?
