Chapter 253 Create the Right Impression
Linda’s face turned pale. She could not help but tremble after hearing her mother’s shocking words.
“Mom…”
Rose sighed helplessly. “Linda, you should know this by now. It was because he has no interest in you that we concoct plans for you to save his life and find ways to ruin his impression of Elisa.”
Linda clutched her blanket tightly and did not say anything.
Rose saw this and knew Linda must be heartbroken. Thus, she continued softly, “Linda, once you are my age, you might understand love is not as important as you think. Position, power, and wealth are the ones that truly matter. A person can still live well without love. But if you don’t have money or power, you will starve to death.”
“There is no inseparable love in this world. That’s why I came up with plans to get Gareth to marry you so that you have a better life. Later, you can take control of the Wickam family. Once you give birth to a son, your position in the Wickam family will be fully secured. Then, you will be in a good position even when you are old.”
Linda’s face turned even paler. She did not know what to say.
Tears began to roll down her cheeks.
“Mom, I really want to make him love me. I’ve already experienced Gareth’s gentleness, so I don’t want him to suddenly turn cold with me. Now, he behaved as if he would leave me at any time. Even though he stayed with me the whole night, he hardly said anything. I sensed his remorse, but there was nothing else…”
“A man’s pity is more than enough. Linda, you mustn’t be obsessed with love and lose your rationality! Even if he doesn’t love you, you can still slowly cultivate his love after you marry him. The most important thing now is to stay focused and get him to marry you! Do you understand?”
Rose placed emphasis on the final three words and finally made Linda see her point. Linda breathed in softly and nodded. “I understand.”
“You have seen the Wickam family’s attitude toward you. This is already enough. Since Gareth asked you to give him two months, you should wait. Furthermore, you are not to pester him in these two months. We can’t behave like how we did in the past. Thankfully, Monica was willing to admit that it was her idea this time. Otherwise, Gareth would have an even lesser opinion of you.”
Linda’s eyes flashed with a hint of anger. Last night, she stood before him in a revealing strapped dress, but he showed no desire for her. Instead, his expression turned cold, and he even tried to make her leave. If her mother did not come up with this plan, Gareth would have felt disgusted with her yesterday.
“How long should I stay in the hospital this time?”
Rose smiled. “A week is enough.”
“A week?” Linda was surprised. “I was in a risky condition yesterday which dragged on for a few hours. Isn’t a week too soon?”
“Our hospital has advanced medical treatment. Since you were able to wake up from a coma and recover well last time, why would the Wickam family suspect anything?”
Linda frowned and still felt it was too soon. However, Rose smiled. “Silly, even after you are discharged a week later, it doesn’t mean you have recovered fully. You still need to remain in a wheelchair and let your assistant assist you. Furthermore, you must behave as if you are a responsible person and not abandon work. You must create the right impression no matter the situation.”
