Chapter 807 Make Your Thoughts Clear
“I can’t let Lucas live in a bad environment all the time. He needs his family and needs to be taken care of. I can’t give him too much. But no matter what, leaving or staying won’t change our relationship. Lucas came to this world healthy because of you, and I will never forget it in my life.” As Evelyn spoke, the scene five years ago when she was about to give birth in Eoland flashed through her mind. Thanks to him, she could give birth to the child without worries.
After listening quietly, Bert straightened up and looked at her. “Are you done?”
His calm reaction made her feel a little better. Evelyn raised her hand to smoothen her hair beside her ear, feeling a little weak.
“Yes.”
“When are you going back to Eoland?”
His tone was very calm as if what he had just heard was not a big deal. Even she said that she would go back to Eoland.
Communication with such a person was simple, but it also made people panic. No one knew which sentence let the man read
one’s mind.
“In the next two days.” Evelyn didn’t hide it from him and told Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
him her plan truthfully. “My identity was removed five years ago. Now I have to go through the formalities again. It’s a little troublesome.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the living room fell into unbearable silence. The air was so quiet that the sound of the second needle turning could be heard.
Before Evelyn came, she had expected this to happen. She had a lot to say, but she didn’t know where to start.
She felt sorry for Bert and his love.
“Is it because of him that you stayed here?” Suddenly, the man’s low voice sounded in her ear.
Evelyn was stunned for a few seconds before she realized who he was referring to. Her heart was beating fast. She lowered her head and refused to lie. “Yes.”
Bert felt as if his heart had fallen to the bottom of a valley with these two words. His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as if his emotions were surging up and down. The corners of his mouth twitched bitterly, but he couldn’t smile. “I shouldn’t have let you
come back.”
These words came from the bottom of his heart.
He had never done anything that made him regret it. In the past 30 years, he had thought that nothing made him feel uncomfortable when he thought of it, but now he finally had it. Letting her go back was the biggest mistake he had ever made.
There was no such thing as letting go of a relationship. It was just a favorable position. He exchanged five years for an opportunity, but he was defeated by his arrogance.
“Bert.” Evelyn felt uncomfortable and called his name. “Don’t say that. I let you down. I’m sorry.”
“You don’t have to apologize. As I said, I don’t need you to respond to my feelings for you.” He had always regarded himself as a gentleman. He didn’t want to force her, nor did he want to force her. Most of the time, it was he who made her passively accept this friendship. Why should she be sorry?
“Don’t say that. I’ll remember how good you are to me and our child. I appreciate what you’ve done for us.” To a certain extent, Evelyn’s feelings for Bert were different from anyone else. It was very special, and sometimes she couldn’t even explain it clearly.
“Five years ago, you accidentally saved me by the reservoir in Jewel City. Later, we met in another province. This was destined, but I took you away. I forced myself to get along with you for five years. I know that maybe one day you will leave.” He had been traveling around the world for so many years and had seen all kinds of storms. He had looked down on everything. He had thought about such a day, but he didn’t expect that he would be so sad.
“Don’t say that. It’s a good thing for me to meet you.” Evelyn didn’t want him to think so lowly of himself. She had never thought about it.
“Sometimes, I also wonder how deep your fate with Huston is so that you can reunite in a foreign country five years later.” All his requests could not overcome the arrangement of fate.
If it could be said that having experienced so much between Evelyn and Huston was fate, then losing her was also fate.
