Win Her Back

Chapter 731 It's So Good To Have You Around

Edmund nodded slightly to show his understanding. It was hard for anyone to accept such a family background. It was normal for her not to call him grandfather.

He struggled to stand up and took out a letter from the drawer of the bedside table. She opened it with a trembling hand. The yellow paper was full of a strong sense of age.

"I always regret that I was angry with your mother and didn't pick you up! But your mother is stubborn. She would never give in unless she couldn't hold on.

However, it was too late when I realized it. I followed the address and found that you and your mother had left. I haven't heard from you since then.

I thought your mother was blaming me, so she left in a fit of anger. I don't expect to be separated from her by accident. How can I accept it?"

Hester's nose twitched when she heard what happened in the past from him. In her memory, her mother did send a letter. At that time, she was too young to know what was written on it.

Now she remembered that this letter carried all her hopes! Her father was addicted to gambling and couldn't extricate himself from it. He had no choice but to ask his father to help her. But what came next was indeed the debt collectors, and things had been smashed endlessly.

"My mother has never blamed you. It was her fault. She deserved it. She doesn't hate anyone."

"Really?"

The old man's eyes trembled, flickering with a faint light. He looked at Hester, and a faint hope was ignited. Guilt almost killed him.

"Did your mother say that?"

Hester nodded slightly, thinking back to a long time ago. At that time, her mother hadn't lost her vitality because of the pressure of life, and occasionally told her something about her grandfather.

She would never forget her mother's expression, and her eyes were shining with light, very dazzling.

"When my mother was alive, she would occasionally mention to me about my grandfather. Every time she spoke, she was filled with a strong sense of happiness, without any resentment.

Sometimes in her sleep, she would cry out with guilt, and finally return to peace, but the pillow beside her ear was quietly wet. At that time, I didn't understand, but now I seem to understand slowly. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

My mother was such a proud person. Even if she did something wrong, she would grit her teeth and insist on walking. She eloped with my father without hesitation and had to pay for it!"

"It's all his fault!"

At the mention of that man, Edmund was filled with righteous indignation. If it weren't for him, his daughter wouldn't have suffered so much.

Last night, he was lying on the bed. Once he closed his eyes, he could hear the cry of Rosemary, which was lingering in his ears, torturing his nerves.

He couldn't imagine what she would look like in the end. Would she be tortured to death, or would she be as old as an old man who had died for so long?

His mind was full of nonsense, which almost drove him crazy.

"If it weren't for him, Rosemary wouldn't have ended up like this. She has been well taught since she was a child. In order to keep her happy forever, I won't let her see anything dirty.

That's why she was easily cheated by that man."

Hester frowned and tentatively patted the old man's hand. Edmund was indeed a good father. He built an iron wall for his daughter, free from worldly interference.

"Mom always says that people are destined. She said that she accepted it, so she never blamed you. In her opinion, you are a good father who is responsible for your duties, but she is not a good daughter, and has failed your expectations!"

Edmund's gray hair was a little messy, and his head was drooping. The quilt in front of him was wet by a drop of tear, and then the second drop, and then the third drop.

That morning, Hester had accompanied Edmund for a long time. Listening to his suppressed cry, she was almost drowned in too much emotion.

She didn't know what was on her mind. She just felt sad, but she didn't know how to comfort him. As a strict father, he had to act like a superman in front of his children and could not cry.

However, everyone forgot that he was just an ordinary person. A person who would cry and feel pain.

As a result, Eric led a group of people into the bedroom and solved the problem thoroughly.

Hester was sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. On the left was Rowena, and on the right was Eric. The three of them were a little cautious because they had never met each other before.

"Hester, I'm your aunt, Rowena. If anyone dares to offend you in the future, just tell me. I will help you!"

Rowena said first. She loved her own niece the most. Her niece had suffered so much, so she must take it back double.

Eric frowned and didn't take her words seriously. No one dared to offend the Liu family, so they didn't need to stand up for her!

But Hester didn't know what the Liu family was like!

"Hester, although your aunt's words are a little harsh, there is no problem at all. But with the support of the whole Liu family, you don't have to be afraid of anyone else.

Your mother is our favorite sister. She has suffered so much for that man. We will not let him go!"

Hearing Eric's firm words, Hester nodded slightly and clenched her fists. That man was her father! But why did she relax for a moment when her uncle said he wanted justice?

Sometimes she really doubted if she was really cold-blooded and indifferent to her own father.

"Don't worry! From now on, I can stand in front of you openly, and if someone plots or harass you, I will absolutely deal with them all without mercy."

Seeing so many people scramble to express their positions, Leo touched the tip of his nose awkwardly and thought about it carefully. It seemed that except for these, he really didn't know what else he could do.

"You don't have to worry too much about your own condition. The previous rehabilitation treatment is very successful. You will definitely recover."

Hearing everyone's words, Hester's eyes were slightly moist. She lowered her head awkwardly, trying to hide her panic, and the corners of her mouth could not help rising.

"It's so good to have you around!"
