Chapter 4
Ethan was struck by lightning, trembling as he held the photo, murmuring, “No… How could she be dead? She only served three months in prison… I was just teaching her a lesson…”
Noel also looked frustrated, he stared at me, wanting to speak but hesitated.
At this moment, Ethan suddenly looked outside and exclaimed in fear, “The urn just now…”
I ran out with tears streaming down my face, slowly putting the remaining ashes into the box.
Ethan wanted to help me, but I pushed him away and said disgustedly, “Go away! You’re not qualified to touch Alisa!”
Ethan knelt there, tears streaming down his face, “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry…
At that moment, Megan suddenly held her stomach in pain and said, “Brother Shen, my stomach hurts so much… The baby… The baby might be in trouble…”
Ethan hesitated for a moment, glanced at me with difficulty, and then immediately went to pick up
Megan.
Look, even though he knew Alisa had died, he still chose Megan.
Megan cried as she sympathetically said, “Shen Ge, please call an ambulance for me… I can go to the hospital by myself, you… you stay here and keep Alisa company.
Ethan looked at her tenderly and said, “No, you were the most important one now.”
After saying that, he looked at me nervously and stammered, “Sister–in–law, I will take Megan to the hospital and then come back.”
I mechanically packed the remaining ashes into the urn, my gaze vacant, not even lifting my head
at the words.
However, as I watched his receding figure, I deeply felt sorry for Alisa.
This was the man she deeply loved… At that moment, Noel brought Odin in front of me and made him kneel down to apologize.
Odin realized that he had caused a great disaster and obediently knelt down.
I simply didn’t want to pay attention to them.
Noel frowned and said awkwardly, “I didn’t expect Alisa to actually… but if it wasn’t for her bullying Megan before, we wouldn’t have distrusted her so much.”
I looked up at him, this man who had been treated exceptionally well by time, once made my heart flutter, but now he is as dirty as a rat in a stinky drain.
Chapter 4
I said indifferently, “Let’s get divorced.”
Noel was slightly startled and asked, “Are you crazy?”
I sneered, “You’re crazy. What makes you think that I would still be with you, after you’ve treated my Alisa so poorly?”
Noel looked at Odin and said, “Where is the child? Weren’t you the one who loved him the most? Weren’t you always hoping that he could come back to you and be taught by you personally?”
I looked at Odin with disgust and said, “No thanks, he’s just your family’s inferior genes.”
At that moment, the funeral company’s staff arrived, and I no longer paid attention to Noel. I went
to the cemetery
With them.
After Alisa was buried, I touched her photo on the tombstone and remembered the laughter and joy she had brought me for the past thirty years by my side, and couldn’t help but feel sorrowful.
When Noel arrived, he was covered in dust and dirt, having left the cemetery.
He looked at me, his brows furrowed, a hint of compassion flickering in his eyes. However, his words remained cold as he said, “I understand your feelings of losing a good friend, but Alisa took her own life. You shouldn’t vent your anger onto innocent children.”
“Do you know? Megan was pushed by you, and she almost had a miscarriage. Now she is in the hospital for pregnancy preservation.”
I looked at him coldly and said, “Did you rush here just to seek justice for her?”
Noel was hurt by my attitude and said angrily, “Do you have to talk to me like this? Do you know that if it weren’t for me, my mom wouldn’t let you off the hook!”
It seems that all the members of the Delacruz family accepted Megan. It makes sense, considering
she was the daughter of Mrs. Delacruz’s old friend and was raised as her own daughter. And now,
she is pregnant.
Mrs. Delacruz was satisfied with herself.
I said, “Are you done talking? If
done, then get out of here!”
I walked past him, and he grabbed my arm, pulling me into his embrace. There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes as he said, “Lara, let’s not be stubborn. Come back.”
“I know Alisa’s death has made you very sad, but, compared to the deceased, aren’t the living people more important?”
“Do you know, ever since you left, I couldn’t sleep all night, and Odin also regrets it, crying and
wanting to find his mom.”
Chapter 4
“You came back, and both of us, father and son, would accompany you, slowly healing your mood.”
Upon hearing these words, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter. As I laughed, tears started streaming down my face. I angrily pushed him away and shouted, “Noel, who gave you the audacity to think that you and your son could compare to my Alisa?”
To tell you the truth, I married you just to save my life. I never loved you at all, nor did I love your
son.
“Everything about you, the Delacruz family, disgusted me!”
Noel looked at me incredulously and said, “What…did you say?”
I coldly said, “Go back and tell your good brother that when his child is grown and ready, I will definitely present a great gift.”
