Chapter 1317Brad answered, "Dad, I'm not going to tell you! It's useless to ask me. Why not play with your friends or go to the bar if you are free? I remember you were busy before. You didn't come home for half a year. Why do you have so much time now?"Eileen noticed he was typing and asked, "What are you doing?"Shaking his head, Brad said, "Dad asked where we are. I didn't tell him. Mom, is Dad afraid that you'll be snatched away by Mr. Lyall? So he keeps asking?"She hadn't thought about it. Stroking his head, she said, "It seems like you've watched a lot of TV dramas lately."Brad smiled. "Actually, after living with Dad for some time, I find he's quite nice. He's not as cold as before and won't easily lose his temper."Eileen smiled without saying anything.Since she intended to break it off with him, she had forgotten the past and didn't love him anymore.She was not cruel. She had persisted for eight years.She had loved him for eight years but got nothing.He did n
Chapter 1318Ruben frowned."You invited me to dinner several times. I thought you were just welcoming your colleague, but now it seems not to be true, so stop in time."Ruben said, "You are the first woman I have a good feeling about. It's lucky for me to meet you. I don't want to give up.""You're rich and handsome. You can make better choices. I'm not the best."Eileen said softly word by word."I'm divorced with a child, and I'm a cripple. Can your family accept me?"Moreover, you have a good feeling about me just because you spent time with me. If we reduce the contact and the time spent together, you'll find that the so-called good feeling will turn into friendship.""Why are you so sure? Do you know me that well?" Ruben asked."No, nor do I want to know you that well. You are just my colleague. There is no need to know you that well."Eileen's face was cold. "Thank you for your help these days. From now on, except for the necessary contact at work, please don't be arou
Chapter 1319Luke didn’t pay attention to what she had said but kept asking questions.Eileen looked at him and said with a smile, "Mr. Bennington, this is my privacy. I don't have to answer your questions. Our conversation is over. You can leave now."She deliberately called him 'Mr. Bennington' and distanced herself from him.Upon hearing this, Luke became furious.He walked towards her with big steps and pulled the coat on her. It pissed him off when he saw Eileen wearing that man’s coat.Eileen wriggled and her cheeks flushed with anger. "Let go of it!""This coat is ugly!"Luke tightened his grip on the coat. He had to take it off her body.Eileen was furious and kept kicking and cursing at Luke.In the end, she became quiet and let him take off the coat.Luke gazed at her when he noticed the change in her attitude."What the hell do you want to do? We are divorced! I don’t like having you around so often!""I want you to understand that I will start a brand new life
Chapter 1320'A different feeling? What does he mean?'After freezing for a few seconds, Eileen asked him calmly, "So?"Luke narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "I can't tolerate you wearing another man's coat. Nor can I tolerate you hanging out with him!"Eileen laughed out loud, "Luke, is this your different feeling? It's just your sheer possessiveness. You've always been domineering and selfish."She had thought that he had a thing for her or even loved her.How ridiculous!She pulled her hand away from his palm and looked at him quietly, "Luke, do you think I'm trash? When you didn't want me, you threw me away. When you want me, you pick me up. Do you think I am at your disposal without any self-respect? When you hate me, I have to get out of the way. Now that you say you have a different feeling, I have to return to you gratefully. Why? Even if you say you love me, I won't look back at you! Let it be, and I'll move on with my life. What's more, you're a scum!"Luke frowned.
Chapter 1321 Selfish? Domineering? Sheer possessiveness? Was he? Luke was lost in thought. On the other side…Eileen was lying in the bathtub. Her body was soaked in the warm water. Her eyes were closed, her fingers shivering slightly. Luke’s words still echoed in her ears. They were so clear, so powerful! However, she no longer wanted to be with him. After eight years of hurt and having enormous scars on her heart, she no longer wanted Luke's affection! Stepping out of the bathtub, she put on some soft and soothing music. She wanted to scrub the memories and traces of the night. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep. But she couldn't sleep. Maybe it was after an hour or two that she finally fell asleep. What Luke felt for her was not love, just possessiveness. She had been his woman. How could any other man possess her? Eileen knew him well.Early the next morning… Brandy pushed open the door and walked into the room. Looking at the mess in the room,
Chapter 1322Mental illness?If other people implied Luke had a mental illness, he would definitely deal with them.But this was his son.Luke didn't know what to say.No one knew what he was thinking about.While they were talking, Ruben kept knocking on the door.The maid had prepared the breakfast for them, but they didn't come out of the room."Okay. Go wash your face and brush your teeth." Saying that, Luke patted Brad's shoulder gently.Nodding, Brad went to the bathroom, washed his face, and brushed his teeth.Luke went to the dressing room and changed his shirt and suit pants.After that, they walked downstairs.Suddenly, Luke seemed to think of something and gazed at Brad, who walked in front of him.After pausing for a few seconds, he said, "What do you think if your mother and I get back together?"Brad slipped and almost fell down the stairs.Luckily, Luke grabbed his collar quickly.Brad said, "Dad, are you kidding me?"Luke let go of him, ignored his ques
Chapter 1323"Dad, how come you're so experienced? Will you also be like that after you and Mom remarry? That's why you know so much about..."Before Brad could finish his words, Luke couldn't resist tapping on his head. "I'm not the same as those men!"Brad muttered, "Since you are all men, what's the difference?"Fortunately, Luke didn't hear this.Otherwise, he would be mad.In the end, Brad said softly,"As long as Mom is happy, she doesn't need to worry about me at all. I don't care whether her future family will like me or not, and I won't get involved with them to make it difficult for Mom. I don't believe what you said, Dad."Mom has no money or a house, and she is lame, so if Mr. Lyall doesn't like Mom, what does he want from her? Mom is very poor. She has nothing!"Hearing this, Luke boomed with a frown, "Eat your meal!"In fact, Brad was tempted to say that his mother was very beautiful.Many people who had seen her said so, but Brad bit his tongue.After that, B
Chapter 1324In the past, she always wished for a warm and happy family.Whether rich or not, they could have lived in peace.Yet now, she realized it was too much to wish for. He might be a good father, but never a good husband!The dinner was soon ready, but only enough for two people.Luke looked calm.He didn't cheekily help himself this time.Instead, he held the cup of warm water, staring at the mother and son thoughtfully.Eileen frowned.She felt quite uncomfortable seeing him like that.She didn't want to quarrel with him in front of Brad, so she could only endure.Children were always happy. They had no worries and could sleep quickly after a meal.After a while, Brad fell asleep with rosy cheeks, looking cute.Eileen sat on the edge of the bed, covering him with the quilt.As she saw the man out of the corner of her eye, she said, "I don't want to have a row with you or wake Brad up, so leave now.""When are you going to remarry me?" He asked flatly.Eileen
