Life After Prison

Megan was the one who answered. “Diane, why don’t you take a guess? It’s a piece of good news!”

Diane smiled coldly. “Oh really? But I don’t think either of you would actually come bearing good news to me!”

Felicia smiled. “Diane. Your dad and I know you and Selene had suffered a lot for the past few years. But we did it for your own good. We were afraid you are going to suffer misery if you had the baby. Besides, you refused to tell us who the father of the child is. We had no choice. For the sake of the family, there was nothing we can do when Catherine wanted to kick you out of the house.”

Diane smiled faintly. “It’s already in the past and I don’t want to remember it. I just hope the future will get better and the same goes for our lives!”

Felicia smiled. “Of course, it is going to get better. Do you know why we are here? We’re here to bring you back.”

“Bring me back?” Diane was stunned and shocked. She did not expect the reason her parent and sister to come to visit her today to bring her home. This was something that she would never think of in the past.

“That’s right, Diane. You can go home now!” Megan repeated.

Judith and Maurice exchanged looks with each other. They could see each other frowning and looking worried because Diane’s family did not mention Severin or Selene.

‘Are they going to bring Diane back and leave Selene here?‘ they thought.

William smiled. “Diane, it’s not just you. Severin and Selene can go and stay together with us too!”

“Yeah! That’s a good thing!” Judith was thrilled to hear that. She consoled Diane. “Look. Your parent loves you. If they are willing to accept you, Selena, and Severin back in the house, it means they have forgotten about the past. It’s a good thing!” This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“That’s right! All of you can go back. You can pack your things and go back today!” Felicia quickly said. Regardless of that, Diane did not look happy like they thought she would. She frowned and started thinking deeply.

Megan was curious why Diane did not feel touched or overwhelmed. “What’s the matter, Diane? You do want to go back, do you? Or you don’t want our family to recognize Selene and Severin?”

Diane did not answer immediately. After a few seconds of silence, she said, “Why did Catherine suddenly change her mind? Allowing me to go back? And also accepting Selene and Severin?”

Felicia’s expression changed a little as she was feeling quite embarrassed. Despite that, she tried hard to smile. “I mean it has been over so many years. Catherine is always fond of you! She thought you brought disgrace to the family when you were pregnant. Look how big your daughter is now. What feud is there to hold on to? We are after all a family, right?”

“That’s right! Diane, please come back!” Megan also tried to convince Diane. “Although Severin is useless and an imbecile, he is still Selene’s father. We would try to accept him!”

Judith and Maurice looked embarrassed and did not dare to refute. All they did was lower their heads and said nothing.

The gaps between both families were too huge. They knew Severin is very hardworking and treated them very well. He was however not exactly the best match for the daughter of the Sanahans. Knowing that fact, Maurice and Judith had low self–esteem when it came to facing. Diane’s family.

Diane was unhappy to hear how Megan talked about Severin. “Who are you calling an imbecile? From what I see, he is not an imbecile! He’s a passionate man. He has medicinal knowledge! He would stand out with bravery and fight for us when his parent, me, and Selene got bullied!”

“What’s the use of standing out when he has no power? That’s just an act of an idiot!”
