As time went by, Lydia was very restless. Her stomach was still swollen, but Elizabeth hadn't come back. It was almost half-past eleven in the morning, and they were going to have lunch soon. She tried to walk, but it tortured her so much, so she could only give up. Moreover, she was obviously very uncomfortable, but she had to try her best to maintain her image, and she couldn't gulp in pain with her face twisted. At this moment, she did not blame Elizabeth. After all, Elizabeth was pregnant, and she was kind enough to go back to get the medicine for her. She couldn't ask too much, could she? Therefore, she sat quietly in her seat and silently endured the uncomfortable feeling which was caused by eating so much. "Mom." As soon as Lydia heard the voice, she was delighted and immediately turned back. When she saw James, she frowned slightly and felt a little guilty. However, she was experienced, so she immediately smiled, "Jimmy, what a co
After lunch, Elizabeth felt embarrassed and didn't dare to stay downstairs to look at Lydia's dejected face, so she hurried upstairs. James went to see her after the meal, but he didn't say a word to her. A minute later, he turned around and went out very arrogantly. Elizabeth was speechless. Didn't he say that he wouldn't blame her for having eaten outside? Why did he behave so coldly? Although she thought so, in the end, she just grabbed the remote control and begun to watch TV sulkily. After all, James might be angry, so she didn't dare to act recklessly anymore. James returned to the bedroom again and wanted to see what she was doing, only to find that she was crying, and her eyes were red and swollen. James panicked and ran to her in a hurry, "What's wrong? Honey, why are you crying?" Elizabeth didn't say anything and just sobbed, which looked so pitiful. "Honey, say something! Why are you crying? Huh?" He was really anxious. Before
In the end, Elizabeth naturally didn't fulfill her wish, but she did not think too much, followed James downstairs obediently and ate the food at home. However... she was a little absent-minded. While eating, she was still thinking about the program she had just watched. She couldn't help but think of the scene of Jodie coming to see her and even kneeling down to her... She could refuse her directly at that time, but she became hesitant after watching the TV program. It was really touching for a mother to do that for her daughter. In fact, she knew how wealthy Zena's family used to be. Jodie used to be a rich and powerful lady, but she was willing to work as a cleaner just to fulfill Zena's wish. She really did not like Zena, but... she pitied Jodie from the bottom of her heart. "What are you thinking about? Hurry up and eat it." James urged her in a soft voice, "It won't taste good if it gets cold." "Mm." Elizabeth responded perfunctoril
"I didn't say that I wanted to do so. Alas! Just have a look! I've brought it for you." Looking at the book in his hand, James had no choice but to read the contents Elizabeth found for him quickly and then closed the book. "What do you think? The experts said so." James frowned and said helplessly, "Honey, you've watched a lot of TV programs and news. So, how can you really trust those so-called experts? Uh-huh?" "What?" "For example, last time, an expert said that eating raw loach is good for health, but what about the result? Uh? Moreover, a so-called expert said that some people suffer from hair loss, especially many women whose hair is very long, and they lose a lot of hair while combing their hair. Therefore, he said that the only way is not to comb their hair. Bah! Don't you think it's ridiculous?" Elizabeth was silent for a moment, and then said after thinking, "But... you bought these books for me, and you let me read them. You even... asked
"Elizabeth, you haven't been out for a long time. Are you feeling good now?" There was a driver on the driver seat, so Evelyn didn't dare to speak too loudly and whispered in Elizabeth's ear. Looking at the car driving out of the gate of the neighbourhood, Elizabeth was in a good mood. She was like a bird which had been locked in a cage for a long time and finally had a chance to fly to the sky. Words couldn't describe how delighted she was. "Of course!" Elizabeth was very excited, "You don't know how boring it is for me to stay at home every day. Fortunately, my mother-in-law and others all treat me very well. They are not like the harsh mother-in-law and indifferent husband in TV dramas, but..." Elizabeth pursed her lips, "I'm so bored." "Alright, don't say that. See, we've come out now. Let's have a good day today. What do you think?" Elizabeth squinted her eyes and smiled, "Of course, but..." She was about to speak, but she immediately shut up when she looke
Elizabeth got out of the taxi and looked at the remote and deserted place, frowning subconsciously. No one would like this kind of place, and she was no exception. However, she had come here after making lots of effort. If she left, she would have done everything in vain. After signing the register, Elizabeth was taken to a small house. She thanked the people who brought her here, and then sat in the chair and waited for Zena quietly. In fact, Elizabeth's heart was very calm. Yeah, she came here just because of Jodie. Zena's business had nothing to do with her. There was no complicated feeling in her heart, as if what she was going to meet was just a stranger who had nothing to do with her. However, in the late autumn, the weather had become very cold. In the prison, it seemed to be colder than outside. She held her arms, trying not to warm herself a bit. Lowering her head, she looked at the ground in a trance. After waiting for about five minu
Zena nodded and then smiled faintly, "Well..." She pursed her lips, "Is Xavier... all right?" Elizabeth was stunned, and then replied, "Mm." "I knew he would be all right." Zena sighed. The smile on face was somewhat bitter. "..." Regardless of whether Elizabeth was interested in listening or not, Zena said directly, "Thinking of the past and my present, I feel that it is like a dream. In the past few years, Xavier... lived a hard life. I know it all." "At that time, in order to get him, it could be said that I used all kinds of methods. But... I did the wrong thing. Once people start to do a wrong thing, what they do next will all be wrong, except for the day when they come forward to admit their mistakes." "It has been so many years. Perhaps you don't believe me, but in the first few years, I felt guilty and sorry for him. However, at the same time, I thought that it was worth it, because I could accompany him by his side and chat with him, althoug
Zena looked at Elizabeth nervously with caution and uneasiness in her eyes that Elizabeth had never seen before. "..." Elizabeth pursed her lips and was hesitating. At this time, Zena explained in a hurry, "Don't worry. I won't make things difficult for you. I..." Zena swallowed and said awkwardly, "I know that I should feel lucky because you came here today. In the future... I won't bother you anymore. You know that Jimmy is angry with me and hates me. He knows that I wronged him and did something terrible to you. According to his temper, even if I asked my mother to find him, he wouldn't come here." "As for Xavier... he must hate me to the extreme now. How could he come here?" Saying this, Zena slightly raised his head. After a long time, she blinked his eyes. When she looked at Elizabeth again, she had successfully forced back the tears in her eyes, but her eyes were a little red. Looking at Zena's eye-catching white hair, the new but not stylish unifor
