You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 106

Joanne looked displeased too. "Nathan, you haven't been back for a few days. Grandma missed you very much. She had told the chef to make your favorite dishes just for you..."

"I know, I will visit her tomorrow," Nathan answered and hung up.

"Grandma, that Irene is so evil!" Joane's hatred for Irene could not be put into words. "She is using her son to hang onto Nathan, meanwhile she's fooling around with Jordan. Word also has it that she is still meeting her ex-husband. What on earth is she up to?"

Britney was too fuming with anger. The relationship between Irene and Nathan had always been something she found intolerable. When she found out Irene was born from a poor family, she had opposed their relationship. However, she hadn't expected that Irene's father was actually Steven. If Irene had come clean about her identity earlier, Britney would not have been against their relationship.

On the other hand, Irene would rather break up with Nathan than reveal her true identity. This showed that Irene didn't love Nathan at all despite him being completely head over heels for her. Because of that, he had been living a single life for so many years.

"Grandma, Irene is a troublemaker. With her around, Nathan will never be able to start afresh in a new relationship. You should make it clear to Irene. Get her to disappear and never show up in his life again."

Joanne's statement made sense. Since Irene had no feelings for Nathan, she should stay away from him. Their occasional meetings would only give Nathan false hope. Britney sighed slightly and said, "Let me think about it first."

Jordan could not believe that Irene was Myra's daughter. Not long after Irene left the hospital, he pulled out the drip from his hand and left the hospital to look for Malcom.

Seeing Jordan come looking for him, Malcom was over cloud nine. However, he ended up being greeted by Jordan's exceptionally cold attitude. Jordan hissed, "Get in the car. I have something to ask you."

Malcom opened the door and got in the car. Jordan said bluntly, "Is the woman you like named Myra Nelson?"

"Who told you that?" Malcom asked.

"Just tell me, is it Myra or not?" Jordan's eyes were twinkling with a hint of fierceness. Malcom was silent for a while and nodded.

"B*stard! You are a b*stard!" Jordan shouted at Malcom. "You are a coward. You're not even a man! Since you love Myra, why did you marry another woman? Why did you get together with Marie? Don't you feel ashamed of yourself?"

Malcom remained silent. His silence made Jordan even angrier. He growled, "Why did you marry my mother if you don't love her? Why did you give birth to me? How can I have a father like you? Go to hell!"

"Jordan, I'm sorry!" Looking at the furious Jordan losing his temper, Malcom felt guilty and apologized.

"What can your apology change? Can a single apology make up for my mother's twenty-odd years of suffering? Can a single apology make up for all the years of love I've missed out on?"

"Malcom, why do you only feel guilty towards the dead? Have you forgotten the living? Do you know what my mother has been through all these years? She was a rich young heiress. But because of a b*stard like you, she has spent all her years in solitude. How could you bear to treat her that way?"

"Compared to the dead, she's living a much better life!" Malcom said with a sad smile.

"What did you say? How can you be so coldblooded and heartless? What did she do to make you treat her this way?"

Jordan had never dreamed that Malcom would say such a thing. He grabbed Malcom's collar and bellowed, "Malcom, you are the root of my pain and my mother's. Why don't I put an end to all that today? Let's just die together!"

"Jordan! You are crazy!" A painful look flashed across Malcom's face. "How much do you know about the past? Let me tell you the truth. Lydia brought all this suffering upon herself!"

"You!" Jordan raised his fist to Malcom. Faced with Jordan's potential assault, Malcom was not afraid at all.

"Jordan, who told you that Myra stole me away from your mother and you? Who told you that your mother was the victim of this tragedy? The truth is a completely different story! If Lydia did not entrap me with her so-called love, I would have never broken up with Myra. Then she wouldn't have married someone else, and she wouldn't have passed away at such a young age!"

Malcom pushed Jordan's hand away from his collar and roared, "Just like how you have no feelings for Joanne, I never intended to marry Lydia Klein. I told her very clearly that I wouldn't marry her. I loved Myra, but what did

she do to me? She promised me she would let go of me. But behind my back, she plotted against me and set me up so Myra would see her in my bed. Because of that, Myra broke up with me. Your mother has never been blameless in this tragedy! I became like this because of her! Do you understand?"

"Bullsh*t!" Jordan did not believe that his gentle mother would pull such a plot.

"You can go ask Lydia whether this is all bullsh*t or not. After that night, she got pregnant with you, and her mother forced me to marry her. I was in so much pain after losing Myra, so I lost all rationality. I agreed to marry Lydia, but we were never in a real relationship."

Malcom smiled bitterly and added, "We could have just lived peacefully like this, but she just had to push Myra even further. Do you know how Myra died? She got into a car accident the day your mother invited her out! The culprit escaped, but even a fool could tell that that was too much of a coincidence. Lydia is spending her life in solitude because she is atoning for her sins!"

"No, that's not true! It can't be true!"

"This is the truth. I've never thought of seeing her. I've given her countless chances to divorce me over the years, but she refused it! Let me make it clear, the only people I feel sorry for in my life are you and Myra. My conscience is clear when it comes to anyone else!" Malcom said firmly.

Jordan sat in the car in a daze. If what Malcom said was true, that the car accident was not an accident, that would mean that his hatred towards Myra was nothing but a joke. It was Lydia who killed Myra. It was Lydia who made Irene lose Myra at such a young age. He should be the one who felt guilty, not Irene.

In his memory, Lydia was always gentle and kind, totally different from the insidious and vicious woman that Malcom had described. Meanwhile, Malcolm had always been a ruthless man. Everything he had said must be make- believe, lies. Jordan did not believe Malcom; he wanted to confirm it with Lydia himself.

Jordan insisted on going home although he had yet to fully recover. David booked a ticket immediately and went home with Jordan.

After flying for more than ten hours, Jordan and David returned to the Reed home. He didn't go see Pedro. Instead, he immediately went to look for Lydia in the yard.
