HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 66

The boy’s mother clasped her hands together, looking uneasy.
Estelle sighed again and said directly, “You want me to take care of your child after you die, right?”
The boy’s mother lowered her head and dared not look at her. Then, after a while, she nodded slowly.
“Why do you bring up your son on your own? Where is his father?” Estelle carefully asked.
“He... remarried a long time ago, and he has another child,” The boy’s mother said with a bitter smile. “He is a capable man. From the beginning, I knew he would definitely have a bright future, and I was not good enough for him. I shouldn’t have married him, or I wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
“You mean when his career took off, he abandoned you and your son and then married another woman, right?” Estelle asked.
The boy’s mother nodded and then said, “He remarried the daughter of a rich family. Now, he is the general manager of a big company while I’m just an uneducated woman.”
“Do you know which company your ex-husband works in?” Estelle asked.
“He seems to be working in Hans International Corporation. It’s a jewellery company.”
Hearing this, Estelle couldn’t help showing a wry smile.
‘The boy’s father was the general manager of Cristofer's company? What a coincidence.’
“What’s your ex-husband’s name?” she asked.
“Miss, why do you ask about this? You want to go to him?” The boy’s mother was stunned.
“Shouldn’t I go to him? His son is seriously ill. As a father, he has the legal obligation to pay the medical fees for his son, doesn’t he? How could he be so ruthless in abandoning you and your child?”
Hearing this, the boy’s mother was a little flustered and said, “Even if I go to him, I won’t be able to get anything from him. Forget it. Miss, I don’t want to get you involved in it. After I die, my son will be alone, and no one will take care of him. He’s still so young...”
Estelle took a deep breath and said, “I’m sorry. Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do to help you.”
The boy’s mother was not surprised at the answer. “I’m the one that should say sorry. I was so abrupt to make such a request to you just now. You’ve helped us a lot before. And I shouldn’t ask for more. I’m so sorry,” she sadly uttered.
“I didn’t mean that,” Estelle said, “If it were in the past, I would help you. But now I don’t have much money. Besides, I may also die soon.”
Hearing this, the boy’s mother suddenly raised her head and asked, “What? You also...”
“I have cancer, too,” Estelle said. “I’m also at the advanced stage of lung cancer.”
The boy’s mother bit her lower lip and looked at her in astonishment.
Estelle then continued, “I had an operation to remove the diseased part, but I don’t know when I will relapse. Maybe I will never relapse, and maybe I will die tomorrow.”
The boy’s mother looked at her with mixed feelings and didn’t know what to say. In her eyes, there was her pity for Estelle and her worry about her son’s future.
“But I can help you find a good welfare house. If your ex-husband refuses to raise your son, it’s the best choice to let your son grow up in the welfare house.”
The boy’s mother took a deep breath and nodded, saying, “I see.”
“Tell me your phone number. I’ll call you after I find a suitable welfare house,” Estelle said with a smile.
“Okay. Thank you, Miss.”
When they came out of the cafe, the little boy was squatting obediently outside, waiting for his mother.
He seemed to sense something was off and was not in a good mood. When he saw his mother, he walked over and held her wrist. Then he said, “Mom, I miss you so much.”
His mother chuckled and said, “I just talked to this aunt for a few minutes, and there you are, acting like a spoiled child.”
“I know. But I miss you so much,” The little boy said sweetly, burying his face in her soft belly. “Mom, have you finished talking to this Auntie?”
“Yes.”
“Then let’s go to your next workplace. We are going to be late,” The boy urged his mother.
It was not until then that his mother realised that she still had work to do. She looked at the time and said goodbye to Estelle in a hurry, “Miss, I have to go...”
Before she finished her words, Estelle nodded and said, “Go ahead. Take care. I’ll call you if I get any news.”
“Thank you.” 
Then the boy’s mother trotted away with the boy.
Estelle watched their figures until they were out of sight. Then she went into the hotel with mixed feelings.
She unlocked the door with her fingerprint when she got to her room.
“You’re finally back.” The voice of Mr. Mysterious came from the wine cabinet as soon as she entered the dark room.
“Yes, Sir. I’m back.”
Mr. Mysterious asked, “How has your mother been recently?”
“She is getting better,” Estelle said as she changed her shoes and slowly walked into the room. “Sir, you went to the hospital and paid two hundred thousand dollars in advance for my mother’s medical fees, right?”
Mr. Mysterious nodded and answered, “Yes. Let me know if it’s not enough.”
“It is enough. Thank you, Sir,” Estelle said.
Mr. Mysterious suddenly turned to look at her and asked, “What’s the matter with you? You seem to be in a bad mood.” He could feel that she was down in spirits.
Instead of answering his question, Estelle asked, “Sir, what else can I do for you?” 
“Why do you suddenly ask me such a question?”
Biting her lip, Estelle said in a low voice, “Since we knew each other, you’ve already given me about one million and five hundred thousand dollars, and almost half of them was spent on the luxury rings. I... I really don’t know how to repay you.”
Mr. Mysterious chuckled and said, “You want to repay me? In romantic novels, the heroine usually repays the hero who helps or saves her by marrying him.”
Hearing that, Estelle didn’t say anything.
Mr. Mysterious then asked gently, “Have you considered what I proposed yesterday?”
“Sir, may I ask you a question?”
“Sure.”
“If I agree to be your girlfriend, will you leave me someday?” Estelle asked.
Mr. Mysterious, who was selecting wine from the wine cabinet, paused. Then he asked, “What on earth do you want to say?”
