Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 515

Cora pursed her lips and glanced at Martin, who was busy drawing on the side.

Byron could tell from her expression that she was reluctant to answer the question.

However, considering Martin's treatment, she eventually gave in.

Her voice was noticeably hoarse as she replied, "Yes, Martin is growing up in a single-parent family."

"Where is his father?" Johnson inquired further.

"His father and I separated before he was born due to a misunderstanding..."

Given the follow-up treatment for Martin, Cora's response was comprehensive, as she revealed the story of how she angrily told her ex-husband that she had the child aborted.

She also spoke about her initial thought of committing suicide after hearing news of her ex-husband's death.

"But I couldn't bear to do it, especially knowing how much he had anticipated Martin's birth. So I went to Leucrest Town alone and gave birth to Martin there.

"After delivering Martin, I worked at a local medicine clinic to earn a living for us.

"Martin was more obedient than normal children, rarely crying or being unreasonable. I felt lucky about it at first, but as he grew up and couldn't speak, I became worried.

"I couldn't stand hearing people call Martin a mute. It hurt me deeply. They even used his inability to speak as an excuse to reject him from attending kindergarten..."

As Cora described the difficult years she spent raising Martin alone and people's ridicule of Martin, she cried, almost losing control of her emotions.

Byron felt as if his eyes were burning.

He had never imagined that she had endured such hardships in the past four years.

If she hadn't mentioned it herself, he wouldn't have believed that this gentle and delicate woman had single-handedly raised Martin and grown stronger, facing the maliciousness of those around her.

Hearing her reason, Byron was ready to push the door open and explain to her.

But before he could act, Cora added, "More importantly, I have decided to let go."

Byron saw the look on Cora's face, the one without any trace of love, the same one when she begged to see Johnson.

He realized it must have been his lack of a clear refusal to Nora's arrangement at Nora's celebration party that deeply hurt her.

Therefore, Cora made up her mind not to love him anymore.

Yet, despite the deep misunderstandings they once had, Byron hadn't been able to let her go.

Now that all the misunderstandings were cleared, and he knew she had given birth to Martin and raised him so diligently, he was even more certain that he couldn't let her go.
