You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 110

Britney went to the hospital the next day to visit Irene. Irene's ankle had started to recover after treatment. Nathan was there too, holding Eden.

The three of them were playing games happily, and the ward was filled with laughter. Looking at their happy faces, Britney stood at the door and looked at them as she was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. If she hadn't stopped Irene and Nathan in the past, they would have gotten together, and their children would have already been attending kindergarten at least!

The three of them stopped playing when they saw Britney. "Grandma, you're here!" Nathan greeted her.

Britney walked in and smiled at Irene, asking, "How do you feel?"

"I feel much better after getting treatment. I don't think there's any need for me to stay in the hospital anymore," Irene replied.

"That won't do. You'd better listen to the doctor's instructions and stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation," Nathan interrupted.

"Yeah, stay in the hospital for a while longer. Don't worry; you have us," Britney said gently.

After a while, Britney left and Nathan walked her out. At the entrance of the hospital, Britney held Nathan's hand, saying earnestly, "You're very busy with work, right? You shouldn't stay in the hospital all day long. I'll call the servants from our home to come and take care of Irene."

"Grandma, don't worry about it. It won't affect my work." Nathan smiled. "Let's set aside the fact that Irene and I are good friends. You're the reason why Irene is injured. As the White family's eldest grandson, my conscience won't allow me to not take care of her."

Hearing that, Britney's expression changed slightly. Nathan seemed to be reminding her to not forget the fact that Irene saved her. Was he hinting at her to agree to the relationship between him and Irene? Britney returned home glumly.

After she got home, Britney sat on the sofa and was lost in her own thoughts. Even though she had lived for a long life and had experienced a lot of things, she never thought that she would be in such a dilemma one day.

She didn't completely hate Irene; she only felt perturbed because of Nathan's change. However, after Irene saved her regardless of her own safety, Britney suddenly found that the way she viewed Irene had changed. She even started to pity Irene a little. But when she saw Nathan and Irene getting along happily that day, that uncomfortable feeling had returned to haunt her again.

Even though Joanne was a slow person, she had asked a good question. If Irene used the fact that she saved Britney as a card of negotiation in order to get together with Nathan, would Britney object or not?

Britney felt very uneasy. People's hearts were unpredictable. She was afraid that Irene saved her because Irene had ulterior motives. While she was thinking about it, Irene had already bought a flight ticket to return home.

The day after the next day was Myra's death anniversary. She had to go back to tidy up Myra's grave.

Irene's sudden return made Britney remorseful as she realized how narrowminded she was; she shouldn't have gauged Irene with her own presumption and imagination. She felt so guilty that she deliberately went to see Irene off.

Upon looking at Nathan holding Eden and saying goodbye to Irene, Britney felt touched. They were supposed to be a couple, but they weren't able to become an item because of her selfishness. That was the first time that she thought that she was cruel.

When Irene was about to enter the security check, Britney couldn't hold it in anymore. She went forward and held Irene's hand. She told Irene something that even the latter was surprised at. "Irene, if you love Nathan, you can continue on doing whatever you're doing. I will never object to you two again!"

Sitting on the plane, Britney's words buzzed in Irene's mind. It was true that those words of Britney were heartfelt; Irene could feel that. But, they were told far too late.

If Britney had told her that seven years ago, she would have been ecstatic; but right then, after experiencing so many hardships, she had lost the courage to fall in love again.

Her only wish right then was that Eden could grow up healthily and happily. As long as Eden was fine, she was willing to suffer any trial or tribulation.

The plane landed safely at the San Fetillo Airport. Irene walked out of the security check and took a taxi back to the rented house. She reported to Thomas about Eden's condition, but did not mention her being abducted at all.

Thomas was delighted to hear that Eden's health was in a good state. After talking for a while, Irene returned to the Cook family.

On the way back, she decided that right then was the time to face Edric. During the time when she was abroad, she had received a lot of missed calls, all of which were from Haverland. She was familiar with none of them.

Irene guessed that those phone calls must be from Edric. Edric must've realized that Irene had blacklisted his phone number; that was why he tried to contact her by changing to another number.

Of course, Irene didn't care about Edric as the very purpose of her going abroad was to avoid him.

However, for Eden's sake, she had no choice but to return to him. Her ovulation period was coming soon. No matter how much she hated him, she had to compromise for Eden.

Irene pushed open the door of the Cook family's house before she saw Lily and Edric sitting on the sofa in the living room. Of course, Steven and Deborah were also there.

The four of them were chatting away happily. The atmosphere was extremely pleasant.

Her appearance disrupted that good atmosphere. Lily was the first to respond. "Irene, you're finally back."
