Chapter 288
Bella‘s POV: I didn‘t look at Herbert, because I was worried that when I saw his gloomy eyes, I would
forgive him. I went on to say, “I hope we won‘t have any relationship in the future, and don‘t say
anything more about being together for the sake of our children. In the future, I don‘t want to have
anything to do with you other than our two children!” “I‘m tired. I want to rest,” I continued. After a
moment of silence, Herbert said, “I‘m leaving.” “I‘ll ask Connor to send Lucky back tonight,” said
Herbert. “Thank you,” I said. Herbert didn‘t say anything.
Then I heard the sound of the door closing. I quickly turned around. As I expected, Herbert had left.
The next moment, I covered my mouth and couldn‘t help but burst into tears.
I couldn‘t control my feelings. But I wouldn‘t forgive him. Once he got close to me, my body would
tremble uncontrollably.
All this was because of the harm he had done to me in the past.
I just wanted to live a quiet life now. I really didn‘t want to get involved in emotions again. Therefore,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtalthough I felt so much pain in my heart. I told myself that as long as Herbert didn‘t continue to pester
me, I could live a peaceful life.
I couldn‘t be defeated or sad. I had to work hard to make my current life better.
One of the effective ways to prevent sadness was to make myself busy so that I had no time to think
about the current problems. Perhaps everything would be better. I picked up the rag and began to
clean. It took me about four hours to clean up everything, I was already very tired. But I still had to
continue preparing dinner. After all, Lucky would be back in the evening. But after a little rest, I began
to go into the kitchen to prepare dinner. As soon as dinner was ready, there seemed to be a knock on
the door.
Gary had sent Lucky back. Theld Lucky in my arms and kissed her. Lucky hadn‘t seen me for a few
days, and she was very affectionate to me as well. A pair of chubby hands touched my face. I missed
this little guy so much. I put her on my lap and said with a smile, “Lucky, do you miss me?” “Yes.” At
this moment, Lucky could only say one word, but I was already very excited. “Mommy made you egg
fried rice. Mommy will feed you, okay?” I asked with a smile. At this time, she put her finger into her
mouth and looked at the egg fried rice on the table, drooling.
“It seems that you are really hungry. Mommy will feed you.” 1 scooped a spoonful of rice and put it into
her little mouth.
Lucky was very happy that she finished all the dinner I had made. It wasn‘t until Lucky took a shower
and I coaxed her to sleep that I lay on the pillow wearily. When I finally didn‘t have to do anything, I
remembered the painful look in Herbert‘s eyes. But it didn‘t take long for me to fall asleep because I
was too tired. The next morning, Herbert didn‘t break his promise and sent a car to pick Lucky up early.
After Lucky left, I immediately typed a personal resume and prepared to start looking for a job. After
sending a few resumes, I bought some fruit and food and went straight back to my mother‘s house. I
hadn‘t been back for a few months. I missed mom very much.
I hope Mom wouldn‘t be angry about the wedding anymore.
Ding... Dong... Ding... The doorbell rang twice, and someone came in to open the door. As soon as the
door was opened by the person inside, I shouted with a smile while holding something in my hand,
“Mom...” I didn‘t expect that the person who came to open the door was not my mother, but another

I glared at him. “Why are you at my mother‘s house?”
“Bella, this is also my home.” Ryan emphasized. I sneered and said, “Your home? You haven‘t come
back for almost 20 years. Is this still your home?” “Anyway, I’m your father. If you talk to me like this
again, I‘ll teach you a lesson!” Ryan‘s tone was a little fierce. Hearing this, I said with disdain, “It‘s been
nearly 20 years, and you‘ve been a father for someone else. What‘s wrong? Do you come back
because people dislike you now?”
Although I didn‘t know why Ryan suddenly appeared here. But his beach pants, vest, and slippers
showed that he had already lived here, so I was very angry. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Ryan was furious.
Now I didn‘t want to talk to him, so I directly reached out and pushed him away. Then I rushed in and
shouted, “Mom, are you at home?”
At this moment, mother ran out of the kitchen.
“Bella, you‘re here!” Mother said.
“Mom, why is he here?” I pointed at Ryan and asked, “He...” Mother didn‘t dare to look into my eyes
and didn‘t say anything. I also guessed what was going on, and I was very agitated. “Mom, why did you
do this! You actually let Ryan live in our house? He is a man who once abandoned us!”
“How can you talk to your mother like this?” At this time, a woman‘s voice came from behind.
