Hard To Say Goodbye novel Chapter 35

Looking at the series of expression on little Hugh's face, Murphy couldn't help laughing. He knew that little Hugh endured the bitterness of coffee. He didn't spit it out and drank it. What a brave child he was.

Nora rubbed her eyes and looked at everything in front of her. She couldn't believe that the neat freak, Murphy, would drink coffee in the same cup with little Hugh. It was unbelievable.

But all of this really happened and existed.

"Does the coffee taste bitter?" Murphy asked little Hugh.

Little Hugh answered, "It's a little bitter at the beginning. It won't be bitter after you drink it. The coffee is delicious."

My God!

Little Hugh could also drink bitter coffee. Thinking that her son might have some connection with Murphy in his life, Nora suddenly stopped all her imagination and forced herself not to think about it.

Murphy said to little Hugh, "Life is like coffee. It's bitter first and then sweet. You have to remember that only when you have a hard time will you become a better person."

Little Hugh nodded, not fully understanding what he meant.

In fact, it was difficult for a child of only three or four years old to understand these words, but Murphy didn't know why he talked so much today.

Maybe it was because he liked Nora too much! Love me, love my dog.

Looking at his watch, it was half past six. Murphy was about to stand up and go home. This time, he could send Nora back, and was allowed to go upstairs and have a seat at her home. That was enough, and he was satisfied.

Sometimes it was just a coincidence. Otherwise, how could it be? It was just a coincidence.

When Murphy was about to stand up and leave, the doorbell rang.

Nora thought something bad was going on. When Grace came back and let her see this scene, what would she think? That was also the reason why she didn't want Murphy to go upstairs.

In the end things will mend. What could she do?

Hearing the doorbell ringing, little Hugh happily ran to open the door while shouting, "Godmother, godmother is back."

Murphy had lost his memory, so he didn't know who Grace was at all?

He always thought that Nora and little Hugh lived together. If he had known there was another person in Nora's house, he would not come here. Because it was too rude for him to come to Nora's house for the first time without greeting her.

It seemed that he didn't know enough about Nora.

When Grace entered the room, she was surprised to see that Murphy was at home. Because Nora had told her that Murphy had lost his memory, so she came to her senses in an instant. What a shrewd woman!

Seeing Grace, Murphy also stood up. After all, he was an uninvited guest.

They greeted each other for a while and then sat down.

"It's late. I should go now," said Murphy. Then he stood up.

At this time, little Hugh was unhappy. He pouted and mumbled, pulling the corner of Murphy's clothes, "Don't let uncle go. Let him have dinner at home."

After all, little Hugh didn't know what had happened between the adults. He just wanted to have fun, because there was no guest at home at all.

It was not that Nora couldn't persuade little Hugh, but that she didn't want to see him unhappy.

It was the first time that Murphy had dinner at Nora's house. He felt very warm had a feeling of home.

It was getting late. Murphy told little Hugh "It's time to go to bed. Get up early tomorrow morning and go to school." Little Hugh nodded and said, "I know. I'm going to bed."

After that, Grace took little Hugh to take a shower and then went to bed.
