Chapter 920After that, Jaime came downstairs. Looking expressionless, Edmund informed him, “I am here to bring
mom home.”
“Hmm,” muttered Jaime indifferently.
Edmund added, “please go back to Grandpa’s, if possible. He’s quite old, you know.”
Alena gave Edmund a yank after hearing that, unsatisfied with his son’s kindness to the man.
Unmoved by her reaction, Jaime replied aloofly, ” I will consider it.” Without saying another word to him,
Edmund turned to his mother and said, “Please go get your papers. I will be waiting.”
With a nod, she circumvented Jaime quickly before rushing upstairs, as if he had been some monster.
“So you and that Chelsea something are back together?” asked Jaime, sitting in a sofa without asking
Edmund to take a seat, knowing that he would never do so.
“Yes, we are, “answered Edmund mechanically standing in the entrance, anxious for his mother’s
reappearance and to get out of the place.
Jaime took a sip of his coffee and continued to say, “Have a happy life together. Don’t mess it up the
way I did.
Edmund turned away his face.
His father had no ground to lecture him right now.
Edmund didn’t respond to the remark, leaving the father and son as silent as they had always been
around each other all these years.Alena soon came downstairs with all her papers, and walked out of the door without even taking one
look at Jaime. Before Edmund turned around and left, he raised his head towards him as a way to say
goodbye.
As Jaime sat by the window, quietly watching his wife and son until they were out of sight, he thought
there was nothing he could do to make it up with his wife, who was so obstinate and domineKatharineg
that he found it depressing to live with her.
If she had agreed to divorce back then, they would have at lest been able to make some polite small
talks with grace when they met.
But she would rather die than get a divorce, so they were stuck with each other and then finally turned
into enemies.
Alena hated him for being a womanizer, while he loathed her for rejecting a divorce, so it would never
be rightful for him to see someone else.
novelbinBut then he felt glad to think of the changes of his son. He would never have asked him to go back ever
if it wasn’t for Chelsea. She is a great kid, especially to Nelson.
Edmund wanted him to return to that home just because as a grandson, he hoped that his grandpa
would be able to see his son for the last time when it came to his death.
Edmund took his mother to a hotel, and while checking in, she asked, “I thought we would go straight to
the airport.”
Edmund said, a little impatiently, “I just spent more than 1@ hours on a plane and went straight to your
place, hardly got any sleep, so I am dying for a nap, mom.”
Edmund might have expected it from his mother, who was a selfish woman and would always be.She would never care about whether he’d got enough sleep or not. The only thing she cared was how
long it would take to go home.
He would have felt despaired again, but he wouldn’t, for he no Longer needed his mother’s love. Just
so long as Chelsea loved him and cared about him, he could ask no more.
