Win Her Back novel Chapter 731

Edmund nodded slightly to show his understanding. It was hard for anyone to accept such a family background. It was normal for her not to call him grandfather.

He struggled to stand up and took out a letter from the drawer of the bedside table. She opened it with a trembling hand. The yellow paper was full of a strong sense of age.

"I always regret that I was angry with your mother and didn't pick you up! But your mother is stubborn. She would never give in unless she couldn't hold on.

However, it was too late when I realized it. I followed the address and found that you and your mother had left. I haven't heard from you since then.

I thought your mother was blaming me, so she left in a fit of anger. I don't expect to be separated from her by accident. How can I accept it?"

Hester's nose twitched when she heard what happened in the past from him. In her memory, her mother did send a letter. At that time, she was too young to know what was written on it.

Now she remembered that this letter carried all her hopes! Her father was addicted to gambling and couldn't extricate himself from it. He had no choice but to ask his father to help her. But what came next was indeed the debt collectors, and things had been smashed endlessly.

"My mother has never blamed you. It was her fault. She deserved it. She doesn't hate anyone."

"Really?"

The old man's eyes trembled, flickering with a faint light. He looked at Hester, and a faint hope was ignited. Guilt almost killed him.

"Did your mother say that?"

Hester nodded slightly, thinking back to a long time ago. At that time, her mother hadn't lost her vitality because of the pressure of life, and occasionally told her something about her grandfather.

She would never forget her mother's expression, and her eyes were shining with light, very dazzling.

"When my mother was alive, she would occasionally mention to me about my grandfather. Every time she spoke, she was filled with a strong sense of happiness, without any resentment.

Sometimes in her sleep, she would cry out with guilt, and finally return to peace, but the pillow beside her ear was quietly wet. At that time, I didn't understand, but now I seem to understand slowly.

My mother was such a proud person. Even if she did something wrong, she would grit her teeth and insist on walking. She eloped with my father without hesitation and had to pay for it!"

"It's all his fault!"

At the mention of that man, Edmund was filled with righteous indignation. If it weren't for him, his daughter wouldn't have suffered so much.

Last night, he was lying on the bed. Once he closed his eyes, he could hear the cry of Rosemary, which was lingering in his ears, torturing his nerves.

He couldn't imagine what she would look like in the end. Would she be tortured to death, or would she be as old as an old man who had died for so long?

His mind was full of nonsense, which almost drove him crazy.

"If it weren't for him, Rosemary wouldn't have ended up like this. She has been well taught since she was a child. In order to keep her happy forever, I won't let her see anything dirty.
