เข้าสู่ระบบWhy cling so tightly to the past? Some things could be resolved by one person alone.Besides, saving a life was a virtue beyond measure. Sometimes, taking a step back opened the door to a wider horizon.The greatest redemption was to let go of the past and keep moving forward."Yvonne, we've been enemies for so long. But the more I think about it, the more ridiculous it all seems."One hand resting on her belly, Aurora radiated a quiet maternal warmth."Honestly, I don't think there was ever that much hatred between us. Couldn't we have just talked things through?"Yvonne froze."Aurora, do you really mean that? I never imagined you'd say something like this."Aurora smiled warmly."Of course I do. Why would I lie to you? I've always felt there were too many misunderstandings between us that were never cleared up. If we talked them out, wouldn't we both feel better?"Yvonne's lips parted slightly, but no words came out.As she looked at Aurora, who had truly let go of the past, she sud
The more Edwin thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed.If he really ended up with Yvonne, would their future children inherit her lack of judgment?The thought alone made him want to put some distance between himself and her.Philip saw right through him and didn't mince words."What is it, Edwin? I thought you liked Yvonne. Now that you've seen what she's really like, are you starting to look down on her too?"Absolutely not. I haven't even officially approved the two of you being together yet, and now you're already thinking about breaking it off. Did either of you bother asking for my opinion?"Edwin hadn't expected his fleeting thoughts to be read so easily."Dad, do you really have to put it like that?"Philip let out a cold snort."Maybe you should stop calling me Dad. You let that little vixen cloud your judgment, and I couldn't stop you even if I wanted to."The truth couldn't be any clearer now. Yvonne is the problem. How many more times do I have to spell it out for
She simply hadn't found the right opportunity to settle the score with Yvonne."Yvonne? What are you doing here?"Aurora was the first to speak.Sometimes, the best approach was to seize the initiative and catch the other side off guard.At once, Yvonne put on an innocent expression."Miss Walton, I'm here today to apologize to you. I'm sure Lucas has already told you."Aurora turned to Lucas with a puzzled look.She wasn't blaming him. She simply had no idea what Yvonne was talking about.Besides, she understood exactly why Lucas hadn't told her.She was pregnant, and he was worried the stress would be too much for her. If the situation was even more complicated than she'd imagined, it meant far too many things had spiraled beyond anyone's expectations.She completely understood why Lucas had kept it from her.What she didn't understand was what had happened to make Yvonne say something like that."So, Lucas never told you."The knowing smile in Yvonne's voice made her intentions pain
"And besides, as long as that child comes from you, we'll be overjoyed. You're the only daughter-in-law the Carter family will ever recognize."I don't care who else comes along. The only grandchildren I'll ever acknowledge are yours."The pointed remark made Yvonne's face burn with embarrassment.How could she not sense Diana's hostility toward her?She couldn't understand it. Diana had always been courteous before, carrying herself with the grace expected of the matriarch of a prominent family.But now, perhaps because of everything Yvonne had done, she had truly angered her.Yvonne could clearly tell that Diana didn't even want to look at her.More than that, what Diana felt toward her was closer to resentment than simple dislike.The realization left Yvonne deeply uncomfortable.Just then, Edwin casually slipped his arm through hers."It's okay. You don't have to care what my mom thinks. She'll come to love you too."He spoke with complete confidence."As long as you're willing to
Michelle and Charles exchanged awkward glances.Neither had expected things to spiral this far.If Edwin was no longer a Carter, what value did he have to the Song family?If he married into their family without the Carter name behind him, he'd be useless.At that point, he'd be nothing more than dead weight.The disdain in their eyes was impossible to miss.Even Yvonne was less than pleased.She asked Edwin to come because she wanted his support.She never intended to spend the rest of her life with him.Otherwise, she would have accepted his pursuit back there without hesitation.If she had, she wouldn't have needed to fear Aurora anymore.Edwin had been pursuing her for so long that many already saw her as practically part of the Carter family. If she accepted him, she'd officially become a Carter, giving her far more leverage against Aurora.The thought both tempted and repelled her.She didn't want her future to become so predictable, as though the rest of her life had already bee
“What is wrong with you, Lucas? Are you heartless? Yvonne has already apologized to you. Don't you feel even the slightest bit sorry for her? Haven't you realized where you went wrong?“And besides, she's made herself perfectly clear. She wasn't trying to run away from any of this. Can't we at least give her a chance?“Everyone deserves the opportunity to make amends after making a mistake.”Edwin looked at Yvonne with sympathy before reaching out to gently pat her on the head."Yvonne, I know you've suffered a lot of unfair treatment. All I can do now is help you seek justice and make sure no one bullies you again."My request is simple. I just hope you'll grant me this one thing—stop putting yourself through this kind of humiliation."The moment those words fell, every member of the Carter family turned to look at Edwin.Philip, in particular, slammed the tip of his cane against the floor, glaring at him with undisguised fury."Edwin, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Are
It was not something that happened once or twice. From childhood to adulthood, her mother always treated her this way.She was always biased and siding with Tessa no matter the situation.So, Aurora gradually learned to step aside.But things were different now. Aurora had Lucas’ devotion, and with
At that moment, Lucas was alone in his office.He stared at the documents on his desk, a flicker of confusion crossing his expression.He hadn’t expected things to unravel into something this complicated.All Aurora wanted was to sort through her belongings, yet she had uncovered one of her family’s
“Madam Grace, I understand why you’re doing this. You’ve carried the Walton family on your shoulders for so many years.”Arnold had always admired Grace deeply.After following her for so long, he knew exactly what kind of person she was.That was why he chose to stay by her side.Many people never
“Fine, I think you have a point.”Megan finally gave in. Her reluctance to bring her cousin along had been simple.She just felt that with her cousin around, she would never be able to relax. He had been serious since they were kids.If anything, she feared him more than her own parents.She always
