At this point, it’s all because Eve forced me to do it! If she didn’t keep on protecting the child inside Elsie, I wouldn’t need to do this!
While clenching her fists tightly, Lyla glanced at the door of the ward one last time and furrowed her brows before leaving the place.
However, the two of them didn’t know that a dark figure was standing at the emergency exit as he listened to everything they said just now.
At the moment, his face looked terrifyingly dark. Even though it was a rather warm autumn, the coldness of his face felt as though it could freeze someone completely.
No one knew how much time had passed but it had been quiet outside for a long while. Finally, his eyebrows twitched slightly and he lifted his gaze, revealing the coldness within.
…
“I know that if my position in the family is under threat, I won’t mind telling him how Myra was framed back then.”
“Or are you still lying to yourself? Do you really think I don’t know what you did to me and Sean’s child at that time?”
“Is that so? Mom, what do you think Sean will do when he finds out that he has misunderstood Myra? Say, do you think he will try to get back together with her??”
“Looks like you do know that Myra was driven out of the family because of my little scheme. What are you going to do about it, though? You knew about this but you still didn’t stop me!”
…
In the past, all Sean knew was that he and Lyla had a child, but it was later killed by Myra.
In his two years of marriage to Myra, he purposely went looking for many other women just to insult her. He was willing to have one night stands with them instead of even touching her so that he could tell her that he was insulting and punishing her! Initially, he planned to leave Myra and be together with Lyla again without hesitation when she came back.
During his time with Lyla, he kept on telling himself that she was the woman he loved. She was his first love and it wasn’t easy to get her back, so he thought that he should be together with her.
However, at the same time, he realized that he kept on thinking about Myra.
He would unwillingly remember how good she had been toward him and the company in the past, and he even subconsciously ignored what she once did to his child.
However, he was wrong…
He was wrong about everything…
The person who killed his own child wasn’t Myra at all, but his own mother whom he trusted the most!
As for Lyla, he always thought she was kind and at least truthful toward him, but he was starting to question what he heard just now.
It was she who plotted to drive Myra out of the Chase Family… It was she who killed the child inside Elsie… She is the one who always puts on a façade in front of me… At the moment, Sean was clenching his fists so tightly that his veins were popping out. If only I knew all of this… If only I knew…
Suddenly, he took out his phone and tried to call Myra, but she had already blacklisted him on her phone long ago.
She isn’t willing to see me because I hurt her… It’s because I didn’t trust her…
There was an endless pit in his heart and it was growing deeper and deeper while his mind was filled with panic. He seemed to feel that he could no longer hold onto Myra.
Suddenly, he ran down the stairs and rushed into his sports car. As he turned the steering wheel, his movements suddenly halted.
At that moment, Lisa was rendered speechless. When he was furious just now, Myra hadn’t even come here yet but he was already going on and on about separating her and Tony. Maybe he said something over the top to her when she came back, which probed Tony to protect her.
“I really can’t understand where Tony’s temperament comes from. He is nothing like my past self!”
Upon hearing that, Lisa was a little speechless.
In the past, she was initially engaged to another man but Sebastion plotted to snatch her over. Honestly, his unruly temperament is really not much different from Tony’s.
“It’s been so many days but he still hasn’t given me a promise about a great-grandson. Instead, he keeps on going against me!” This was another thing that Sebastion couldn’t get off his chest. He promised me a great-grandson but nothing has happened since then!
“Sit down!” Seeing him walking back and forth, Lisa felt a little dizzy. Immediately, Sebastian halted his anxious pacing and he sat on the edge of the bed obediently. As he looked at Lisa, she said to him flatly, “The more anxious you are, the less likely it will happen.”
Her words explained what Sebastian was worried about deep down inside, so he let out a huge sigh. “If only these two have the same taste in women as Damian. Also, look at Shawn—he always finds a woman with a weird temperament! Don’t think I’m not aware that his girlfriend, Estelle, has ex-boyfriends that could line up from here to Marina Bay Bridge!”
Seeing the displeasure on his face, Lisa furrowed her brows but at the same time, her lips curled up. Then, she put down whatever she was doing and went over to sit next to him. “You only need to care about me.”
Her sudden words instantly startled Sebastian, but she already pressed her lips together and got up before walking out the door.
When Sebastian finally came back to his senses, his face immediately turned from gloomy to cheerful as he chased after her. “Lisa, I think you blushed just now!”
…
The next day when they had breakfast downstairs, Myra and Tony could clearly notice that Sebastian’s attitude had taken a huge turn.
