Chapter 105 The Sequel Of That Night (2/2)
”I'm sorry about the divorce agreement. That was not my intention. No matter what I have said earlier, it was not my intention, ” Hiram said. As he said this, he held her hand so that he could tell whether she was angry or not.
”I don't care if it was your intention or not. What I care for is the final result...” As
“Let's go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!”
Rachel thought that he had gone out to work so early probably because he wanted to make time to accompany her to XH Village.
This man always did something to move her and make it impossible to hate him.
In the afternoon, Hiram kept his promise and accompanied her back to her hometown, XH village.
When Rachel saw what Fannie was doing at home, her tears could not stop falling.
Because they hadn't started till noon, they arrived at almost 5 p.m. which was almost dinner time. When they came in, they saw Fannie cooking noodles by herself, with one of her arms leaning on a crutch and one of her legs splaying in front of the stove.
”Mom!”
Rachel put the things she brought on the table and walked to her mother. ”How can you cook by yourself?” Rachel asked her in a dumb voice. ”Where is Lily? Hasn't she come to take care of you?” Rachel asked.
”Rachel? Are you back already? It's so late. I thought you might not come here.” Fannie said, putting down the noodles, and wiping her hands quickly behind her back. She was a little embarrassed when she saw Hiram, who had also come.
”Hiram, I'm glad you are here. Take a seat, ” Fannie said. Fannie was about to walk with her crutch to sit on her wheelchair which Rachel had conveniently pushed over towards her.
Hiram stood in the courtyard, quietly looking at the mother and daughter. At this moment, he was not able to say anything.
”Mom, tell me, where's Lily? I have paid her money to take care of you and I also paid the aunt who lives next door. Where are they? Why you have to cook by yourself?”
Her mother's leg was too injured to walk on yet. Thinking of the pain she must have been through, Rachel's eyes turned red and her heart was heavy.
