The Ripe Time for Parting Chapter 10
Looking at the man before him, Leo froze for a moment before suddenly realizing that this was his father.He swung his small backpack and slammed it against the man’s back: “Who allowed you in? Get out!”“Leo! I’m your dad!”Gavin didn’t dodge, a shattered look filling his eyes.“Didn’t you used to love it when Daddy came home? Daddy will never leave again, alright?”Leo glared at him as if a sworn enemy.“I wish I’d never see you ever again!“You promised to take me to the park, but you went with other women every day instead!“When I got sick, you never cared either!“Whenever you came home, you only made Mommy cry. You’re the worst person in the whole world!”Gavin was struck silent.Seeing how strongly Leo resisted him, he slunk away in defeat.Yet he didn’t go far, choosing instead to rent a small apartment nearby to settle down.Every day when I dropped off and picked up Leo, I could catch sight of his figure standing not too far away.As long as he didn’t try to harass me or dis

He forced half his body through the opening.“Evelyn, you have no idea what I gave up just to come find you.“Please, just hear me out, will you?”Realizing he wasn’t going to give up easily and that throwing him out might cause a scene among the neighbors, I let out a sigh and allowed him inside.Nearly half a year after our last meeting, Gavin looked considerably haggard.The bangs he once took time styling before stepping out the door were now almost covering his eyes, and a shadow of dark stubble covered his chin.The moment he sat down, his eyes turned instantly red.“Evelyn, I knew you’d be here.“I was a bastard and a fool—I almost cost our son his life. I’m sorry. Please, can you give us another chance?”He reached out to hold my hands, but I pulled away.“If you came all this way to talk me into going back with you, you can save your breath.“Leo and I are doing very well here. Now that you’ve come in and said your piece, please leave.”“No, no, no...”Gavin scrambled down to

After being discharged from the hospital, I took Leo back to the small home I once had in Crestview.Back in our university days, Gavin had even visited this place with me once.He said he wanted to understand where I was born and raised, and he even went behind my back to buy the small apartment I had been renting.“From now on, this is your hometown home. After we get married, we can come back to visit often.”“If I ever bully you in the future, you’ll have a place to go.”“Unless my apology is sincere enough, don’t you dare go back with me.”The way he looked when he said those words was still vivid in my memory, yet now, everything had changed beyond recognition.Leo let go of my hand and began excitedly mapping things out.“This is Mommy’s room, and this is Leo’s room!”Once we cleaned the place up, I took him by the hand to a nearby kindergarten.Leo adapted very quickly.The environment at this kindergarten couldn’t compare to the elite school he used to attend, yet he was visib

With a loud crack, Gavin’s phone dropped down and smashed against the floor.“Gavin, did Evelyn go complain to your mom, telling her not to let the doctors come?” Stella pouted.“I model for a living, you know. What am I supposed to do if this leaves a scar?”She was still babbling endlessly when a backhanded slap sent her tumbling to the ground.Gavin gritted his teeth: “Was it you two who blocked my wife’s number?”Terrified into a dead silence, Luna shrank to the side like a timid animal.Stella stared in stunned silence as she clutched her cheek, tears spilling out before she could even open her mouth.“If anything happens to my son, I’ll bury you both with him!”Gavin sped like a madman all the way to the hospital, but no matter where he searched, there was no sign of Leo or me anywhere.As Dr. Bell walked by, Gavin grabbed him by the collar.“How is Leo?“Where are my wife and son?“He had brain cancer—why the hell didn’t you tell me?”The barrage of questions left the doctor mom

Meanwhile, Gavin rushed to Stella and Luna’s villa. Stepping out of his car, he caught the exact moment Stella plunged from the second floor.“Stella!”He sprinted forward in absolute terror, only to find her lying flat on a first-floor safety air cushion, grinning up at him.“Got you scared, didn’t I?”The girl leaped excitedly into his arms, wrapping her hands tightly around his neck.“Did you feel that adrenaline rush?”Only then did Gavin notice his own heart hammering like a war drum.“You scared the hell out of me! Don’t pull this ever again!”He scooped Stella up into his arms in a bridal carry. Just as he turned to head inside, Luna came bouncing down from upstairs.“What about me? I came up with the idea! Stella, you’re not hogging him all to yourself!”The two girls giggled and bickered noisily.The corners of Gavin’s mouth twitched into a smile. This was precisely why, even knowing full well it was a lie, he couldn’t stop himself from running to them.It wasn’t that he didn’

“No one is leaving. Continue with Leo’s surgery.”Upon seeing the person who had just arrived, Dr. Bell immediately stopped and rushed back into the OR.Hearing the vaguely familiar voice, I turned around in sheer disbelief.“...Mia?”Gavin’s mom didn’t so much as glance at me as she let out a scoff.“Can’t even summon your own husband back from a side chick—you truly are a failure of a wife.”I collapsed onto my knees, tears streaming down my face.“Thank you...”His mother had never liked me, yet I was still her daughter-in-law in name.She had kept people around to monitor my every move at all times.In my past life, when Leo was diagnosed with brain cancer, I was already divorced from Gavin, so she likely had no idea about his condition.It wasn’t that the idea of reaching out to her had not crossed my mind back then. But having left Gavin, I had no way to contact her at all.I never imagined that this time round, her intervention would be the very thing that saved my son’s life.“
