Chapter 1329Someone praised, "They love each other so much! I'm jealous of them!"A middle-aged woman said, "The girl is too delicate. It's normal that she is tired when she is hiking in the mountain, but how can she let him carry her?"Luke heard that and turned around to look at the middle-aged woman.He explained, "My wife has sprained her ankle. She can't walk."He couldn't allow others to criticize her in front of him.The middle-aged woman's face turned red. She apologized, "I'm sorry that I don't know that. Be careful. The mountain road is rugged."They walked far away. Brad pointed at a place and said, "Mom, there is a forest. I would like to go there!"Before Eileen replied, Luke said, "I take you here to have fun. Go there as you wish."Eileen looked around and found that the forest was undeveloped. When she wanted to stop Brad, the exultant Brad had tramped across the grass and headed for the forest.Luke said, "I will keep an eye on him." He quickened his pace an
Chapter 1330Brad knew that he was wrong and kept silent.Eileen criticized him coldly, "If you didn't run around, we would have made our way down the mountain. Now we are stuck here because of you."Brad bowed his head and apologized, "Mom, I'm wrong."Eileen said, "The sign read 'It's undeveloped'. It means that we can't go there because it's dangerous. Do you understand?"Brad said, "I got it."The sound of running water became louder. There was also the sound of the wind.It was quiet in the cave. They heard these sounds clearly, and their hearts beat fast involuntarily! They were terrified!Brad shivered and said, "Mom, will wolves and tigers run inside?"Eileen kept silent but became anxious.They hugged each other tightly.When she couldn't bear it anymore, she heard footsteps and a familiar voice. Luke said, "I'm back."Finally, she was relieved and calmed down.Eileen took a deep breath and relaxed.Luke picked up some dry firewood. He took out his lighter and li
Chapter 1331Luke narrowed his long eyes, suddenly crouching down in front of her.Without saying a word, he held her ankle and took off her shoes and socks."What the hell are you doing?" Eileen kicked her legs with annoyance."Be quiet."Luke raised his eyelids, glancing at her.Looking at her swollen ankle, he wrapped his left hand around it, put it on his thigh, and applied the crushed green herbs in his right palm to the swelling. "How does it feel?""Cool, then hot," She replied truthfully, "Are these wild herbs?""Yeah, just now while you were asleep, I went to the woods again, collecting some herbs and dry firewood..." he said.Hearing this, Eileen gazed at him.His white shirt was scratched by tree branches, messy and soiled.In her memory, he wasn't the man who would do such a thing.According to the status of the Bennington family in Lanechett, he was born with a silver spoon.Meanwhile, Luke divided the firewood into four piles.He set fire to them with the li
Chapter 1332Thinking of what she had done just now, she suddenly became angry."Why are you laughing? Is it so funny?" He thought she would still care about him, but it was obvious he was wrong.A stupid woman would be moved by a little kindness of a man. However, she was not stupid.Luke put Brad on his lap and then held Eileen in his trench coat.The three were close together.When he accidentally touched her cold hands that were as cold as ice, her brows immediately frowned.He held her wrists with his big hands and put them on his sturdy waist under his shirt. The body of a man was different from that of a woman.She was cold and shivered, as if she had fallen into an ice hole.However, his body was hot and just like a stove.“Don’t move your hands away, and just hold my waist like this; otherwise you will feel uncomfortable at midnight. "Luke said again.Her hands were so cold that he trembled when she touched his body.Eileen knew what he was saying was the truth, so
Chapter 1333"I won't take your word for it!" Eileen sneered."You'll find out tomorrow. Go to sleep now. It's too late." Luke said."..."After the two of them had argued for a long time, she couldn't help but get sleepy and close her eyes.He also closed his eyes. They could only hear the sound of the wood burning in the fire.Early the next morning.Eileen woke up first and saw the light outside the cave. Obviously, it was dawn.Her shoulder felt heavy, so she looked over.She saw Luke's head was resting on her shoulder, and he was in a deep sleep.The firewood around them was still burning.She thought he definitely didn't sleep well all night. Otherwise, without more firewood, the fire would have gone out.At this time, Brad stretched his arms and said, "Mom, good morning."Hearing Brad's words, Luke woke up. He sat up slowly, twisted his stiff neck, which actually made a sound, and said, "Since it's dawn, let's go."Brad stroked his belly and said, "I'm hungry."Ei
Chapter 1334Eileen heard what he said clearly.She was willing to let him carry herself on his back originally.But after hearing these words, she wanted to get down from his back.She didn't want to accept his kindness, and she didn't want to have any contact with him anymore.Luke knew she was on the outs with him again.She just didn't want to remarry him, and she wanted to keep a distance from him.Instead of letting her get down from his back, he strode forward.Eileen was unhappy, so she began to struggle on his back."There are many tourists around us. If you don’t feel embarrassed, you just continue to struggle on my back. You know I am not shy."Eileen felt tired and angry, so she hit him heavily on his back, venting the anger.It would take only 20 minutes to reach the top of the mountain by cable car, but they spent three hours walking to the top. Furthermore, many people looked at them along the way.Her stomach started to hurt again, and she bit her lower lip
Chapter 1335Eileen said, "It doesn't matter. I've applied medicine. I don't need to go to the hospital and I'll be fine after a few days' rest. "Ruben felt relieved and sat opposite her. They gazed at each other. Ruben said in a deep voice, "Please be my girlfriend!" Eileen was stunned. When she came to her senses, she said, "I already turned you down before.""I'm not joking. I'm serious! I felt wonderful when I first met you. Every time I think back on that day, I will picture your appearance in my mind. That feeling was especially wonderful."Ruben said with emotion, "You said before that you didn't want to accept a new relationship in a short time. I guess you might have said that because of Brad. Actually, I'm okay with Brad.""I like Brad very much. I can love him exactly as much as you do. It's not a problem at all. Please be together with me." Eileen was about to say something when Ruben interrupted her and said, "Don't answer me right now. Give me an answer in two d
Chapter 1336Ruben said with a smile, “Your son is indeed the best reason for you two to get back together, but you have to think about the whole thing from her standpoint. For the sake of Brad, she has endured this marriage for eight years. It’s not just several months or a couple of years, but eight years!”“To let Brad grow up healthily and happily in a complete family, she has devoted her youth and happiness for so many years...”After saying that, he paused and turned to look at Luke, who was standing opposite.Luke was clearly in a bad mood. His face darkened and he stared back at him with sharp eyes.Pursing his thin lips, Luke wore a sullen expression.Ruben then continued, “You haven’t given her any happiness and care during your marriage, and she is already thirty years old. Do you know a woman’s youth is short-lived?”“If Brad is too young to stand and walk by himself and needs her mother’s care and love, Eileen would never agree to divorce.”“But Brad is eight years old now
