Chapter 380 The One He Treasured Has Always Been Her
The airport in Springbury wasn’t large. Outside the security check, the old lady waved at us, saying,
“That’s enough, don’t see me off. Go back, go about your business.”
Walter and I nodded with a laugh.
Emma looked at me, a hint of a smile playing on her thin face, and said calmly, “Tabatha, thank you for
taking care of me these past few days.”
I shook my head, still unable to help worrying about her, saying, “Sister-in-law, the doctor has urged
you to take good care of yourself during this period. Don’t overthink, just focus on recuperating.”
She nodded, her gaze still gentle, and said, “Yes, alright, come back early after you finish your work.
The old lady and I will return to the old house to prepare for the Spring Festival. Come back early so we
can all spend New Year’s Eve together.”
After speaking, she gave Walter a slight smile, which served as a greeting. Hermosa didn’t want to
leave, but all the adults had left, so she reluctantly followed.
The child didn’t know what had happened, only knew that he hadn’t had enough fun this time before he
was taken back.
Watching the group leave, an indescribable heaviness filled my heart. Not hearing William’s voice, I
pursed my lips, looking at Walter, I asked, “Didn’t the eldest brother come?”
Walter nodded, his brows furrowed slightly, “Sister-in-law didn’t want to see him, so he didn’t come
along.

I pursed my lips and left the airport terminal.
Indeed, we saw William outside the building. However, in just two days, his face had turned pale, his
checks were sunken, and he looked much more haggard and worn. He saw us coming out.
He jogged up and looked at me and Walter, asking, “Did they board the plane?”
Walter didn’t speak to him, he didn’t even acknowledge him.
I didn’t want to talk to him either. I glanced at him and missed him getting in the car with Walter. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
In the car, Walter started the engine. In the rearview mirror, I saw William, who, after watching for a
moment outside the airport. building, also got into his own car.
“Initially, I shouldn’t have called him,” I began, feeling that I had harmed Emma. If I had sought
someone else when Rachel was in trouble, if someone else had saved Rachel, perhaps today’s events
would not have happened.
Walter seemed to understand what I was saying. With one hand on the steering wheel, he glanced at
me sideways, his voice low and restrained, “The one who is wrong is the one who made the mistake, it
has nothing to do with you. If I had been the one to save her back then, would you not be afraid that
you would be the one suffering today
I pursed my lips, sighed slightly, “If she had taken a liking to you, pursued you, at least it wouldn’t be
like this now.”
Walter frowned, “Tabatha, what do you mean by that?”
Knowing he misunderstood, I said irritably, “I mean, you won’t be as confused as your elder brother, I’m
praising you, what are you
thinking?”

He pursed his lips in a faint smile, saying, “Indeed.”
I glanced at his arrogant demeanor, and my mood improved a bit. Indeed, if Rachel had fallen in love
with Walter, at least she wouldn’t have ruined a reputation for no reason. Moreover, although Walter
was annoying, he wouldn’t casually give people opportunities. He would feel guilty for the kindness of
others, but he wouldn’t let others take advantage of him because of their entanglement.
Back at the hotel, the incident at the scenic area had already become known nationwide. The scenic
area was, sealed off. Walter had a lot on his plate, and I couldn’t help him. So, after arriving at the
hotel, I let him handle the company’s affairs.
When William arrived, Walter had already left.
I had nothing to talk about with him, had no intention of engaging in much conversation, and was
planning to return to my room. I didn’t want to be stopped by him, “Tabatha.
I looked back at him, pursing my lips, “What’s the matter, big brother?”
He looked at me, his expression one of despair and helplessness, “Do you have time? Let’s talk.”
I instinctively frowned, not understanding what he could possibly have to discuss with me. Seemingly
sensing my thoughts, he said, “Up to this point, I know the damage has been done and I can’t rectify
anything. Emma doesn’t want to see me, but there are many things I hope she understands. Everything
is not as she thinks it is.”
It sounded like he wanted to explain through me to Emma.
moistened my lips and fell silent for a moment before saying, “Alright, let’s talk.”
Seeing that I was willing to listen, he pointed to the outdoor café

outside the hotel and said, “Shall we talk over there?”
I nodded, accompanied him to the café, and sat down after ordering two cups of coffee.
He went straight to the point and said, “I met Emma when we were young and we loved each other for
many years. I love her very much. I never thought of betraying her, not in the past, not now. We have
children, we have relatives, all of these are what I cherish the most.”
