Gluey Love Between Us -
Chapter 503
He suddenly couldn't stand it anymore.
He must know how Jaida was doing right away.
He had sat there and thought for a long time. He admitted he had been a jerk back then.
He had seen the helplessness and despair in Jaida's eyes.
But he had ignored it, not saying a single word or asking any question.
Her design had made a lot of money for the company, becoming the best seller in River City in the third year.
But after she had left, everything she had earned was given to Rebecca.
Phillip looked at Eden and asked directly, "Your mother, how is she doing these years?"
When Eden heard that, she was surprised.
Then she suddenly realized that her mother was Victor's mother.
And Phillip's ex-wife!
She said, "She is having a good life now."
When Phillip heard this, he felt much more relieved.
He said, "I'm glad to hear that!"
He spoke in such a deep tone that there was a hint of pain in his tone.
Eden had always been a thoughtful person. When she heard the words with a hint of helplessness and pain, she looked at him deeply with her clear and bright eyes. Jaida had told her everything. When Eden saw Phillip, she felt nothing but anger and hatred.
But after a second thought, she found she had no right to hate.
Everyone had his own life and the right to make his own decisions.
Phillip looked at her. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Director Bleu, how did you and Jaida become daughter and mother?" He wanted to know more about Jaida. He had carefully thought about what Graciella had said and suddenly found that he really didn't know Rebecca well.
In the past few years, he had never seriously thought about her.
He had been too busy. Rebecca knew his temper and always catered to him.
Therefore, he had ignored a lot of things.
Eden looked at him and thought Jaida might still hate him.
When Jaida had told her the story that day, she had cried very sadly.
Eden said lightly, "Maybe it's fate. I met her in Gate City. Later, we found that we were on good terms, so we became a family."
"Fate?" Phillip asked as if he was talking to himself.
Eden nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
Phillip asked again, "Then, who is your father?" His real purpose today was to know this.
Jaida remarried. He wanted to know who her husband was. He wondered whether he treated her well and could give her a good life.
He was old now, and he felt deep guilt and selfblame for the mistakes he had made years ago.
Today, after his daughter had called him and enumerated his faults one after another, he had finally known how terrible he had been before. When he had been young and arrogant, what a bastard he had been!
Eden stared at him for a while and asked, "Mr. Alwynn, why do you want to know who my father is?" Phillip was choked by the question and lowered his head in shame. He frowned with a faint trace of pain between his brows as he said, "I just want to know about your mother..."
"She is very good. She and my dad are in love. My dad treats her very well. He is the best husband and the best dad." Eden seemed to know what Phillip was going to ask, so she suddenly interrupted him. Deep down, she had anger. Many people didn't know what they had got until they lost it.
Phillip looked very regretful now.
But it made no sense to cry over spilled milk. No matter how guilty he felt, it couldn't remove the harm he had done to others. Phillip looked at Eden with a bitter smile and said, "You know what I want to ask. It seems that Jaida has told you about the past." Eden nodded slightly and said, "She was in a lot of pain when she talked about those things. I don't think she wants to see you." She thought no matter how brave Jaida was, she couldn't forgive Phillip's betrayal.
Eden had seen it with her own eyes. When Jaida had talked about the past, the light in her eyes collapsed. Her ex-husband, who had once been regarded as the best man in the world, had betrayed her and her family. She had lost everything in an instant. Her lips could not help but tremble while she had told Eden the story. It could be seen that the events of that year had been a great blow to her.
Phillip nodded in pain. "I know she doesn't want to see me. I made a lot of mistakes in the past. I want to make it up to Jaida, Victor, and Graciella."
Eden had her own principles. She could forgive men for their cowardice, but she would never forgive for their betrayal.
She laughed and said, "Mr. Alwynn, didn't you abandon my mother for the sake of living the life you have now? From the moment you abandoned her, you have lived the life you think suitable for yourself. It's not wrong for you to pursue an ideal life. But as a family, as a husband, what you have done is really irresponsible."
Eden's tone was mocking. She wanted to seek justice for her mother. However, she knew that no matter how much hatred she felt in her heart, it was a waste of time to say anything more.
Those who betrayed would be condemned by people.
Cheating husbands would come to no good end.
But selfishness, viciousness, ruthlessness,
calculation, and betrayal could really make a person's soul fall into the pain of hell.
Phillip nodded heavily and said, "I admit it. I was indeed irresponsible. But I'm relieved to hear that your mother is leading a good life now."
Eden looked at him. His hair was greying at the sides. As a magnate in the business world, he had always been proud and arrogant since he had been young.
But he had been unwilling to give warmth and care to his wife and children.
Victor felt too much pain in his heart. Graciella was also harboring strong hatred.
Her mother had told her Graciella, her sister whom she had never met, had never called Phillip father.
What went around came around. Ever since he had started harming his family, his family had also been hurting him in return.
Eden said in a serious tone, "The clock can't be turned back. I remember when I first met Victor, he had a car accident on the highway. Do you know what he looked like at that time?" Phillip looked at her in a daze and recalled what his daughter had said.
