The Don's Orphan Wife Is A Mafia Empire Princess (Elara) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 61 Auntie Leah’s Nice, But I Want Mommy

“I admit I was wrong before, and I promise to change from now on.”

“I should have never underestimated your medical skills. Wouldn’t it be better for both of us to shine together in the medical

field from now on?”

Ethan Miller looked at Evelyn with deep affection, gripping her hand and speaking excitedly.

Evelyn looked calmly at Ethan Miller, feeling a sense of sadness.

The fact that Ethan Miller wanted to reconcile with her now was merely a reflection of her value in his eyes.

If she hadn’t showcased her medical skills today, she would be just another housewife in Ethan Miller’s mind, someone to be

directed at home.

Ethan Miller would never come to realize his mistake.

Moreover, there was Leah Foster involved between them.

After a moment of thought, Evelyn challenged him.

“Ethan Miller, if we don’t get a divorce, what will happen to Leah Foster? How do you plan to handle that?”

Her gaze fixed on Ethan Miller’s eyes, unwavering.

A flicker of guilt crossed Ethan Miller’s expression, and he stammered.

“Oh, Evelyn, are you still jealous? I’ve already told you, Leah and I are just friends-you’re reading too much into this.”

Evelyn scoffed, surprised that Ethan Miller still wanted to enjoy the benefits of having both.

She ruthlessly shattered Ethan Miller’s fantasies.

“Ethan Miller, don’t even think about it. If you don’t want a divorce, then how about you sever all ties with Leah Foster?”

Of course, Ethan Miller was reluctant and tried to explain himself.

“Evelyn, can’t we all just get along? Why does it have to be a choice? You are my wife, and she’s just my friend.”

Listening to Ethan Miller’s extremely irresponsible words, Evelyn felt a chill run down her spine.

It seemed all her love had been in vain.

She once thought Ethan Miller was gentle and caring, someone worth devoting her life to.

But now, it felt like she was rummaging through a dumpster for a man.

“Enough, Ethan Miller. I’ll return that line you once said to me: you are truly disappointing.”

“Our relationship ends here. Since you refuse to divorce, we shall go our separate ways.”

With that, Evelyn was done debating and turned to leave.

But Ethan Miller insisted on blocking her path, unwilling to let her go.

“Evelyn, why are you being so petty? You used to be the kindest person.”

Ethan Miller began using guilt to manipulate her.

“Leah is just a vulnerable girl; she can’t possibly take your place as Mrs. Miller.”

Evelyn remained silent and kicked toward Ethan Miller, aiming for the lower regions.

Fortunately, Ethan Miller had learned to be alert after numerous unexpected attacks from Evelyn.

He dodged quickly, avoiding her strike.

But by the time he realized what had happened, Evelyn was already far away,

Ethan Miller wanted to pursue her but was lost for direction.

When Ethan Miller returned home, William Miller was sitting on the couch playing video games, with Xu Yan beside him.

Upon seeing Ethan Miller, William Miller rushed over and shoved the game console into his hands.

“Dad, Dad, play games with me!”

Ethan Miller wasn’t in the mood; he didn’t want to play at all.

Yet, when he saw William Miller’s eager face, he recalled the arguments he’d had with Evelyn, how it upset their son, and how Evelyn always ended up compromising for him.

Compared to him as a husband, Evelyn had always cared more about their son.

So he patiently took the game console from William Miller and sat on the couch to play.

However, distracted by his thoughts, Ethan Miller was not particularly skilled at the game.

After losing a few rounds to William Miller, he became increasingly frustrated and tossed the game console onto the table.

“Okay, a little game time is enough. You’re still young; you need to balance work and play.”

William Miller looked unconvinced and glared at his father with disdain, unflinchingly criticizing him.

“Clearly, it’s because you’re just bad at this. You can’t even compete with Mom; she used to win a lot when we played together.” Thinking about Evelyn made William Miller’s mood drop instantly, his expression looking glum.

“I wish Mom were here. She would definitely play games with me.”

Hearing William Miller mention Evelyn, Ethan Miller’s eyes brightened for a moment.

Just as he was about to say something, Leah Foster felt a sense of crisis.

She quickly leaned in beside William Miller, smiling as she spoke.

“William, Dr. Hart is probably busy; how about Auntie plays games with you instead?”

William Miller instantly rejected the idea, his tone full of defiance.

“I don’t want that. Auntie Leah is worse than Dad at games. You’re both too silly; I don’t want to play with you.”

Leah Foster felt a pang of embarrassment and, despite her seething anger, put on a sad face, her false tears lingering, looking pitiful.

“William, Auntie just hasn’t had much experience with games. Give me a few days to learn; I’ll definitely be able to play with you, right, Ethan?”

She deliberately glanced at Ethan Miller, hoping he’d stand up for Evelyn as he normally would.

But today, Ethan Miller was lost in thought, completely oblivious to her plight.

Instead, he kept glancing at William Miller, his expression contemplative.

Then without warning, Ethan Miller picked up William Miller in his arms.

“William, do you really miss your mom?”

Leah Foster felt everything slip out of her control. What was happening?

Why was Ethan suddenly so changed towards Evelyn after just a brief outing?

What on earth had transpired in such a short time?

Leah Foster’s expression shifted as she eyed Ethan Miller with suspicion.

At that moment, Ethan Miller had no time to pay attention to Leah Foster; he was focused on coaxing William Miller.

William Miller nodded, fiddling with his fingers,

“Dad, when is Mom coming back? Does she really not want me anymore?”

Ethan Miller didn’t answer William Miller’s question right away; instead, he asked.

Chapter 61 Auntie Leah’s Nice, But I Want Mommy

“Do you want your mom to come back? Isn’t it nice having Auntle Leah around?”

Leah Foster stiffened slightly, but there was a flicker of hope in her eyes.

After thinking for a long time, William Miller firmly nodded.

“Auntie Leah is nice, but I still want Mom to come back.”

“Mom will play games with me and make a lot of delicious food. Auntie Leah can’t do that, Dad. When are we going to get Mom back?”

Leah Foster heard this and felt like she could explode from rage.

After spending all this time with William Miller, she thought she had won him over completely.

Who knew this little brat still had a soft spot for that wretched Evelyn?

What was so special about her? Did the father and son not hate her before?

Now, just a few days apart, they suddenly fell in love again?

Indeed, only status and wealth were trustworthy; men like Ethan were utterly unreliable!

“Ethan, since William wants his mom, why don’t you go pick up Dr. Hart?”
