Too Late to Love Me Now Chapter 9
I didn't see Edith again over the next few days. I thought she and Blake had gone back home.But on my way home from shopping, I ran into them."You're still here?" I asked.Edith said stubbornly, "I won't leave until you change your mind."Blake looked at me with open jealousy and resentment."Go home. I'm not changing my mind," I replied.Edith shook her head.I didn't want to say anything more to her, so I pushed past her and kept walking.Edith bought a place here and lived upstairs from me.Thea was worried about it. "You're not falling for that old woman again, are you? George told me how badly she treated you before. You can't forgive her."I placed a piece of chicken on her plate. "That's not something you need to worry about. Just eat."Thea chewed her food with a sulky expression.After Edith moved in, there was always something left outside my door. Umbrellas on rainy days, expensive health supplements, and carefully prepared dishes.I knew who they were from, a

Edith helped Blake to his feet. She looked furious. "Who are you? This is between Connor and me. Why are you getting involved? Don't you have any manners?"The moment she finished speaking, Dad slapped her hard across the face."You're the last person who has any right to call Thea rude. If anyone here has no manners, it's you!" Dad snapped. "Connor already broke up with you. Why won't you leave him alone?"Edith covered her swollen cheek and was breathing hard with anger, but she didn't dare do anything to Dad.She could only explain quietly, "I never agreed to the breakup, so Connor is still my boyfriend. George, could you please give us a moment alone?"Dad scoffed and took a step back. "Stay away from me. I don't want you upsetting me and then accusing me of pretending to faint. I'm old. I can't take that kind of accusation."Edith's face went pale, then flushed red.Blake couldn't help stepping in to defend her. "George, you're the elder here. How can you be so petty? Bes

Dad and Thea chatted in the living room while I went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.My hands were wet, and I lost my grip on the knife. It fell to the floor.I was about to bend down and pick it up when a slender hand reached down and picked it up first. Thea had come up behind me without me noticing."Here," she said."Thanks. What do you feel like eating today?" I asked.Thea smiled at me. "I like everything you make. Let me help you with the prep. It'll make things easier for you.""You don't have to…" Before I could reject her, Thea was already washing the tomatoes."I already feel bad enough for eating at your place. I'd feel even worse if I just sat around and did nothing."Looking into her beautiful eyes, I couldn't bring myself to refuse. "Alright."I had assumed Thea would only come over for dinner once. But after that, she came over almost every day.She didn't just bring groceries. She brought us gifts too.Dad quickly got used to Thea dropping by for meals.

"Connor, the view here really is beautiful. It's so peaceful."Dad sat by the floor-to-ceiling window. With his glasses on, he gazed out at the view. He hadn't smiled this freely since Mom died.We had settled here because Mom had always said she loved this place.I draped a small blanket over his legs. "We can enjoy views like this every day from now on."Dad took a sip of his tea and smiled. "Did you take care of everything back home? Those two pieces of trash haven't bothered you again, have they?"I was silent for a while, then I shook my head."No. I blocked them both and never gave them our address. They won't bother me again.""That's good," Dad said. "I always thought Edith was trouble, but you loved her and kept giving her chance after chance. I'm glad you've come to your senses."I watched the birds flying outside.Then I said softly, "Yeah. I'm glad I finally saw the truth."Without Edith and Blake in my life, living abroad felt so much easier.My days were simple

At the hotel restaurant, Edith sat at the table, staring down at her phone.More than 20 hours had passed since Edith sent her messages to Connor, and she still hadn't received a reply."How could this be?" she muttered.Connor had always replied to her messages right away. He never took more than an hour.Blake sat beside her. "He still hasn't replied?"Edith nodded, clearly unsettled. "He's really sticking to his guns this time," Blake said.He patted Edith on the shoulder. "Don't worry. He can't stay away from you. Just wait. He'll definitely come back tonight."His reassurance made her feel a little better.Blake was right. Connor loved her.After all these years, no matter how far she and Blake went, Connor had always forgiven her.She just had to wait a little longer. Connor would come back.Edith put away her phone and shot Blake a glance. "You should go. I already told Connor it would just be the two of us tonight. He'll be upset if he sees you here when he gets he

Dad was taken into the ER and brought back out an hour later."There's nothing seriously wrong with him. Just make sure he doesn't get too upset. Let him rest and take good care of him. He'll be fine."The nurse wheeled Dad into his room.I leaned over the side of the bed and held his hand. When Dad woke up, I fed him breakfast.Then, I went home to get our luggage and bring it back to the hospital."I've already put the house up for sale. Once you're discharged tomorrow, we'll go straight to the airport," I said.Dad gently patted my hand. "Okay. Don't blame yourself. What happened to the tie wasn't your fault."I blinked hard, my eyes dry and sore. "Yeah. I know, Dad."When I got home, my bedroom door was slightly ajar.I was sure I had closed it yesterday.Frowning, I pushed it open.A heavy, intimate scent filled the room. Edith and Blake were lying on my bed, with clothes scattered all over the floor.I stared at the scene before me in disbelief. "Why would you do this
