Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 550

At that moment, King Ducasse, who was sitting nearby, saw the scene and his expression darkened.
He had always thought that his mother's gentleness and elegance were just a way for her to hide her own suffering from others.
But now he realized that his mother had suffered so much without him knowing.
King Ducasse felt sorry for his mother at this moment.
Fortunately, everything had been revealed. Otherwise, he would have almost...
As King Ducasse was lost in thought, Catherine's mood also eased a lot.
After she calmed down, she looked at Martha with a smile on her face and said,
"I was too extreme before. Can you forgive me for what I did to you?"
Martha nodded vigorously and replied in a gentle voice,
"That's all in the past. Besides, my mother didn't kill you. On the contrary, it was my mother who indirectly caused your pain."
"I should apologize to you instead."
Catherine smiled even more when she heard the apology from Martha.
Now she realized that as long as her sons were fine, the past grudges could be let go of.
King Ducasse relaxed completely.
Since they had talked things out today, why not celebrate? He suggested they stay together for lunch.
Martha exchanged glances with Stefan, and then both agreed readily.
Catherine saw them nodding their heads, and smiled even more deeply than before.
That afternoon four people enjoyed a pleasant lunch at the royal palace together which brought Stefan closer to Catherine.
Whilst, King Ducasse finally let go of his feelings for Martha.
After lunch Catherine took hold of Martha's hand lovingly, looking into her eyes, saying -
"You are such a good girl! It is lucky indeed that Stefan can marry someone like you!"
Martha couldn't help but smile when she heard Catherine's words. "Meeting him was also my lucky chance," she replied with a smile.
After speaking, Stefan and Martha exchanged a glance, both with a hint of laughter in their eyes.
King Ducasse, who was standing on the side, still felt a bit uncomfortable seeing this scene. But he had no more resentment towards them since he knew that he could never like Martha as much as Stefan did. So he decided to let them be.
After saying goodbye to the three of them, Martha left the palace and returned to the Lucas Residence.
As soon as she walked into the living room, she saw Sam sitting on the sofa looking relaxed.
Sam raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Martha. "You're back."
"Sam," Martha called out with a smile before walking over to sit down on the other side of the sofa.
She didn't believe that Sam was just sitting here because he had nothing better to do. He must have been waiting for her all along.
As expected, Sam's cold voice sounded again in the living room, "Have you resolved your issues?"
Martha was slightly stunned at first but quickly understood that Sam was referring to her relationship with Stefan.
After regaining her composure, she nodded gently and said, "Clark killed my mother; it has nothing to do with Catherine."
The obstacle between them was the fact that Stefan was Martha's enemy's mother. However, now that they knew Clark was irresponsible for Elsie's death, there was no longer any reason why they couldn't be together anymore.
If the past was thought about objectively, Martha's mother's escaping from the marriage indirectly caused Catherine's miserable life.
To get revenge, Catherine had been sending her people to revenge against Martha's mother.
Now everything had been resolved, so let bygones be bygones!
When Sam heard what Martha said, his eyes darkened and there was even a hint of sarcasm in his tone when he spoke next,
"I never thought it would be Clark."
Sam knew Gage always coveted power.
However, from early on, Gage had been excluded from suspicion
Sam even thought someone within royalty might have done something bad against Elsie!
But the truth turned out being so someone who had always kept a low profile - Clark!
This man, who gave up family influence long ago and only focused solely on business, ended up setting up such an enormous trap which almost everyone fell into!
Martha smiled bitterly and nodded, "I never thought that Uncle Clark, who was always kind and friendly, would be like that."
After a moment of silence, Sam spoke up.
"So now you've avenged your mother."
"Yeah, my mother can rest in peace now," Martha agreed before turning to look at Sam sitting next to her.
"Has the doctor come to see Grandma? What did the doctor say?" she asked.
Sam sighed helplessly before answering, "She takes medicines of that kind for too long. It's going to take some time for her body to recover. She's getting old, so it all depends on whether she can recover herself."
Martha felt a pang in her heart and lowered her head without saying anything.
Since she just came here, Grandma had always been enthusiastic towards her.
Even though Grandma couldn't speak, Martha knew Grandma must have missed Elsie very much over the years
Also, with what Clark had done to Grandma over these years, it must have been hard for her as well.
After a moment of silence between them, Sam suddenly asked,
"When are you planning on leaving?"
"What?" Martha snapped out of it abruptly and looked at Sam with confusion in her eyes.
His eyes darkened slightly as he spoke with an unusual tone,
"When are you planning on going back?"
From the beginning he knew that Elsie's daughter would be just like Elsie - not attached to power but rather yearning for family love and hoping for a home.
And since Martha still had a child and a father overseas, then she would definitely go back.
Thinking about this made his heart feel complicated because he had missed Elsie so much all these years.
Now Elsie's daughter was leaving too... he hoped she could find happiness for herself.
