Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 358

Chapter 358 Do You Like Him?

Hailey said, “It’s been a few hours. I told her that you weren’t home. She said that she would wait for you to come back.”

As soon as Elaine came, Hailey felt that something was wrong and called Yuliana. However, Yuliana was probably driving at that time and did not answer her call. Yuliana changed Rowan’s shoes and said to Hailey, “Halley, take Roe upstairs.”

“Yuliana, why don’t I take Rowan up and come down later? I think Ms. Moss…” Hailey did not complete her sentence when she realized that Rowan was still there.

Elaine was not a good-tempered woman. Hailey was afraid that Yuliana would be bullied.

Yuliana smiled and said, “No need. I can handle it.”

Just as she finished speaking, a loud voice rang out.

“Yuliana, you’ve left me here waiting for a really long time!”

Elaine stood about 15 feet behind Hailey, chuckled coldly, and looked at Yuliana, who was standing at the

entrance.

Yuliana raised her eyes and looked at her. She pursed her lips slightly and said nothing.

“Mommy, who is she?” Rowan reached out to grab Yuliana’s clothes and curled his fingers. He was obviously a little uneasy.

Yuliana withdrew her gaze, squatted down, and said with a smile, “This lady is a friend of mine. Can you go. upstairs with Granny Hailey first? She wants to talk to me.”

Rowan did not say anything and stared at Elaine.

He thought Elaine looked familiar. It seemed that he had seen her somewhere, but he could not remember.

Maybe she really was Yuliana’s friend.

Rowan loosened his grip and said, “Okay.”

Yuliana gave Hailey a meaningful look.

Hailey understood and took Rowan upstairs.

Elaine’s gaze landed on Rowan for a moment.

She had to say that his face was exactly the same as Christopher’s.

She did not like children at first, and she did not even want to have a child in her twenties.

However, when she saw Rowan, she could not help but feel jealous.

“I don’t have the habit of talking at the door. Ms. Moss, let’s go to the living room.”

Yuliana walked past Elaine and went to the living room.

Elaine stopped thinking about it and followed Yuliana.

When they arrived at the living room, Yuliana glanced at the cup that was placed on one side of the coffee table and sat down on the opposite couch.

“Ms. Moss, I’ve been driving for many hours. I’m very tired. If you have anything to say, just say it. Let’s make this quick.”

Yuliana’s voice was gentle but sharp.

She did not appear as gentle and generous as she was at Elaine’s house that night.

Elaine smiled and said, “Yuliana, you’re quite good at pretending. You pretended to be gentle in front of Caleb and my parents, coaxed them….skillfully, and changed your attitude when you were speaking to me.”

Yuliana smiled and looked at Elaine placidly. She said, “What about Caleb and me? It’s our business. Not to mention that you are just a cousin. Even if you are my sister, you don’t have a say in the matter. In front of your parents, I behaved respectfully as I considered Caleb’s feelings. If you have come to visit me with kind intentions, I would like to welcome you with a smile. However, are you coming over with kind intentions?”

Elaine’s face was completely gloomy. She pursed her lips and said again sarcastically, “Yuliana, you can really speak well.”

Yuliana lowered her eyes and massaged her wrist gently. After two seconds, she suddenly raised her eyelids and looked at Elaine. She got straight to the point and said, “You came to me because of Christopher, right?”

Upon hearing that, Elaine could not help but stand up. “Yuliana, aren’t you ashamed of yourself? You’re already with Caleb. Why are you still holding on to Christopher? You divorced Christopher three years ago. He doesn’t belong to you anymore!”

She had been regretting her decision since the day she called Christopher and asked him to break up on impulse.

However, she could not let go of her pride and hoped that Christopher would take the initiative to look for her. But she also knew that she was the one who had invested more in the relationship, so she asked someone to inquire about Christopher’s whereabouts and got to know that he had taken Rowan to Romdale.

Hence, she thought of Yuliana again and went to check Yuliana’s whereabouts.

It was exactly as she had guessed.

After listening to Elaine’s words, Yuliana slowly looked at the former’s twisted face and suddenly. remembered the first time she saw her in the underground garage.

Elaine had been wearing a mask and a hat, revealing only her eyes.

Yet, even so, it could be guessed that there was a beautiful and delicate face under the mask and hat.

She had a kind of arrogance, which would only show if she had absolute confidence.

However, jealousy and humility were the only things she had left.

Yuliana slowly calmed down and said, “I didn’t hold on to him. I have already told him at your house last time that there would be no possibility of me and him getting back together. A few days ago, I went to Romdale on a business trip. My son probably wasn’t used to being away from me and kept crying, so Hailey contacted his father, Christopher. Perhaps Christopher was worried about him, so he took him to Romdale to see me.”

She explained the causes and consequences slowly, paused, and continued, “In the days that we were together in Romdale, nothing happened between Christopher and me.”

Upon hearing Yuliana’s explanation, Elaine felt sullen. It was as if her gloomy feelings went away like how air would escape from a punctured balloon in an instant.

She sat back slowly in a slight trance. After a long time, she smiled mockingly. “However, as long as there is a bond between you, your relationship will never end.”

Yuliana asked, “What do you want me to do?”

“Don’t see him again.” Elaine raised her red eyes and looked at Yuliana for a moment. “Don’t let him see your son again. I know it may be selfish, but your relationship is sensitive, right?”

Yuliana was silent for a few seconds before she replied, “Okay.”

“Thank you,” Elaine smiled at Yuliana. She lowered her eyelids, raised her hand, and wiped her tears. She smiled slightly and said, “Yuliana, do you believe me? I have never done this before.”

Yuliana replied, “I believe it.”

“I really like him. For the first time in my life, I love someone so much. Even though I know that he was in prison and had a child from a previous marriage, I still like him,” Elaine sighed with self-mockery. “Even I feel that it is incredible. I haven’t known him for a long time. Why do I like him so much?” She paused before asking Yuliana, “Back then, did you like him as much as I do now?”

Yuliana did not answer.

Elaine sorted out her emotions and got up, “I take back what I said before. Although we can’t be friends, you are a very nice person. I apologize for disturbing you today.”

Then, she left Yuliana’s house.

Yuliana sat on the couch and did not get up to see her off. She only covered her face with her hands and wiped it when she heard the sound of the door closing.

“Mommy!”

Rowan rushed over.

Yuliana was stunned for a moment and reached out to touch him. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Rowan tilted his head and stared at Yuliana’s face for a while. “Mommy, what’s wrong with you?”

Yuliana shook her head. “I’m fine. I just feel a little sorry for you, Roe.”

Rowan could not understand it and leaned into Yuliana’s arms. “Mommy, you don’t have to say sorry to me. I love you. I love you the most! I love you this much!”
