Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 98

Martha's eyes darkened when she heard the word "daddy".
She could tell that Jimmy was really curious about his father who he had never met before in his life.
Eventually, Martha did not have the heart to break his hope and she answered, "I did."
When she was in U Country, she told Jimmy that his dad was far away and out of reach.
She didn't want Jimmy to know the existence of Stefan.
Also, she didn't think Stefan want to know the existence if Jimmy.
But as Jimmy grew up, he had more and more fantasy and expectations for the father he had never met.
Then Jimmy's happy voice was heard.
"Mommy, when will he come to see me?"
Martha was stunned when she heard it. She lowered her eyes and was silent for a moment.
Then she replied, "I don't know it yet... Jimmy, the most important thing now is to take care of yourself. Don't let me worry, okay?"
"Okay."
The phone came Jimmy's disappointed voice, which made Martha feel sorry.
She was afraid to let Stefan know Jimmy's existence.
Because she couldn't afford to lose Jimmy. He was her only hope in life for the past several years.
"Mommy, it's late at night on your side, right?"
The boy's disappointed voice came from the phone. Martha could sense that he had lost interest to chat with her.
"Well, it's bedtime here."
"Mommy, you should go to sleep now. I want to go play with Uncle Rupert."
"Well, be a good boy."
A few minutes later, the phone was hung up. The room was quiet again, Martha lowered her eyes and was lost in thought.
...
At the moment, it was still in daytime in U Country.
In the hospital, after the boy hung up the phone, his little face was full of disappointment.
He could hear from Martha's words that his father hadn't even known he existed, or maybe his father just didn't want to come see him.
Jimmy tilted his head and looked at Uncle Rupert beside him.
"Can you take me to Mommy, Uncle Rupert?"
And Daddy.
Of course, he did not say it out. After all, he knew that both Martha and Rupert didn't like to hear him mention his father. Rupert gently touched his head and said in a gentle voice, "Not now. You are still weak in health."
"After you get better, I will take you to see your mommy. Is that okay?"
Jimmy heard this, pouted, and then stuck out his tongue cutely, "We can secretly go have a look at my mommy, just a look."
Rupert touched his head, smiled, but did not agree.
Jimmy did not hear any answer and knew that it was a "no".
The boy curled his lips, his eyes dimmed and he said listlessly, "I don't want to celebrate anymore..."
If only he could sneak out.
He wanted to see Mommy, Grandpa, and... Daddy.
He hadn't even met them. What if he went to Heaven one day before he could?
Rupert looked at him in distress and smiled, "Jimmy, I prepared a gift for you. You will like it."
"Thank you, Uncle Rupert..."
Jimmy nodded, then looked up at Rupert with a big smile.
He rolled his eyes, thinking of something in his mind.
Since Uncle Rupert wouldn't take him there, he could go himself.
He just needed a perfect plan to escape from the hospital.
Everyone in the hospital knew how smart a boy he was. If not for his weak health, he would have made the smartest person in the whole hospital!
He decided to go see his heartless daddy in person and ask him why he didn't come to see him.
