Chapter 764 The Child Is Innocent
Chapter 764 The Child Is Innocent
"Terence, there is nothing to talk about between us." Hester walked out slowly from behind a big tree. She looked at Terence with a solemn expression, as if he was a stranger.
Perhaps since the day she came back, there was no need to care about the previous grudges. She still couldn't figure out why she changed her name or why she denied her true identity when she met him.
"Since Hester died at that time, there is no need to correct this mistake now. I'm Sakura now, not Hester at all!"
"You finally admitted it." Terence said with his face unchanged and his dark eyes fixed on Hester.
She had been strongly against it for so long. And he had always been waiting for her to admit that she was Hester. He didn't expect that when this day finally came, the consequences would be so heartbroken.
Hester raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that he would focus on the ownership of the name, which made her feel a little ridiculous. "Mr. Terence, what you said confused me. The name is just a code name. I have my own choice."
"Code name?" Terence was so angry that he laughed. He looked at Hester with deep eyes, not knowing how to express his surging feelings at the moment.
If it was really as easy as she said, then the three years he had been thinking about was just a waste of time.
He couldn't accept this fact and would never agree. His love could never be ended by an apology or a joke.
"Hester, don't forget that you pestered me at that time. Don't you think it's too late to pretend to be lofty?"
"Terence, show your respect!" Leo warned Terence viciously. He even dared to bully the Liu family in this place, it was obvious that he looked down upon them.
"Hester is my cousin now. I will never allow you to bully her like this! Since she said the name was a code name, then it was a code name!"
If it weren't for fear of being rejected by Hester, he would have discussed with his grandfather and changed her name and surname!
"Go back, boy!" Edmund waved his hand tiredly and didn't want to argue with him anymore. He was really not capable of dealing with the matters of the younger generation.
"Grandpa Edmund, I came here today just to ask her a question. I will leave after that!" Terence's black eyes sparkled. He nodded and said.
"I have nothing to say to you!" Hester turned around and said coldly.
"Hester, let him ask if he wants. Just for once. In this way, you won't have to be entangled with each other in the future, right?"
Edmund said in an indifferent tone. It could save some trouble in the future, so he had to fight for killing two birds with one stone.
This boy from the Qi family was able to handle everything alone at such a young age, so his ability should not be underestimated. Edmund was not sure that he could figure out all the things behind it.
He knew how there were a lot of secrets.
"Yes! Hester, you really should make some things clear to him. Don't act like a child, or such a thing will happen again in the future."
Leo had been with Edmund for many years, so he understood his intention in an instant and tried to dissuade her. As long as it was beneficial to his cousin, he would not refuse.
Hester's eyes turned slightly. After thinking for a moment, she nodded in agreement.
"Follow me!"
Since it was a private matter, she had to avoid the elders.
Terence had no objection to this. He nodded at Leo and Edmund and left with Hester.
The two people, one in front of the other, maintained a short distance from each other and were carefully on side.
"What do you want to say?" Hester frowned and stood by the lake. She exhaled a mouthful of air and broke the silence first as she looked at the calm lake.
Since he didn't open his mouth, it was the same to let her speak. After all, the matter should have an end.
"Do you really have no feelings for me anymore?" Terence opened his thin lips cautiously with complication.
He looked calm, but his fingertips curled up nervously, with slight white, revealing the true emotions in his heart.
It seemed that he would never forget her! Otherwise, why didn't he let her go back then?
Hester smiled and said, "Mr. Terence, you are so good at joking!"
It was not just that she had no feelings for him, but that she had already given up.
"Don't be so harsh to me. It's not suitable for you!" Terence's eyes were complicated and his eyebrows were slightly narrowed, which was hard to see clearly, but there was also a touch of sadness in his eyes.
"Mr. Terence, you must be kidding. Hester, who used to be obedient to you, was dead three years ago," Hester said coldly, turning around and looking into his dark eyes.
"Have you forgotten? She was killed by you. I tried to get her back, but you were too cruel. I really can't do anything about it!"
Sweat dripped from Terence's palms, and a touch of heartache flashed across his pale face. He looked away from her eyes in a hurry and felt particularly guilty.
He didn't want this result at all. He just wanted to sit down and chat with her calmly. Why did his intention change? It was like the smell of smoke filling the air, as if they would fight with each other with weapons in the next second.
"Hester, I admit that I was wrong at that time!"
"I can't take your apology!" Hester's heart ached, and her fingers trembled imperceptibly. She forced a smile and said, "Everyone needs to grow up. I'll take the past years as my tuition! After all, to grow, one had to pay the price! I'm living a good life now. I just want to completely separate from the past!"
Terence's dark eyes flashed a trace of pain, his fingertips trembling, and his body standing straight aside. A pure black handmade suit wrapped his long body, making people fancy. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"It seems that I have been dreaming. You will never forgive me for what I have done."
"It's good that Mr. Terence knows it! I have something else to do. Bye!" Hester was relieved and her expression softened.
Although this person was stubborn, he still had a little self-knowledge.
Hearing her words, Terence smiled bitterly, with mixed feelings in his heart. "But the child is innocent!"
