Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 606

I reached out a hand to hold her, but it was already too late. She tumbled forward as she fell down and knocked her forehead against the tombstone. Seeing that, I rushed over to help her up. As I bent down, I noticed the injury on her neck. My gaze darkened, and I lowered my eyes.

“Mom, are you okay?” My voice was full of concern.

“I’m fine.” Mom looked exhausted. She fell onto me weakly as soon as I helped her up. She panted heavily, trying hard to respond to me.

I glanced at Crystal, who was looking around beside us. However, I did not manage to ask her any questions in the end. After all, she was an outsider, so it was inappropriate to tell her everything.

I rolled up my sleeves to clean up the grave with Mom. Then, I put a bouquet of lilies in front of the tombstone.

On the tombstone was a picture of a handsome-looking man. He was smiling brightly, with a hint of mischief in his eyes. It was a charming and attractive smile. Uncle Robert must be famous back then!

I crouched and prayed inside my heart, Uncle Robert, this is my first time here. I’m sorry that I never showed up over the past few years. If you’re watching Mom in heaven now, I hope you can bless her with a happy life. That’s my only wish.

Suddenly, a drop of warm water fell on the back of my hand. I turned around confusedly and noticed that Mom was wiping her tears. She was trying so hard to hold herself back that I could not even hear

her sobs.

It was such a heartbreaking scene and tears began to roll down my cheeks uncontrollably. I never understood how much Mom had suffered. Grandma used to tell me that Mom had a hard life, but I could not imagine her pain. Surprisingly, I could sense her agony right at that moment.

“Mom!” I stood up and wrapped my arms around Isabelle. “It’s okay, Mom. Everything will be fine no matter what happens. Don’t be sad. You still have me by your side. I’ll protect you, okay? I’ve grown up now.”

I sent Mom home after leaving the cemetery. Mark was the first person who appeared in my mind as soon as I walked out of the house. I had so many questions that I wanted to ask him. What’s going on? Why is he doing that to Mom?

I knew he was the one who did that. After all, no one else would dare to lay a finger on her. Molten rage rolled through me as my eyes reddened. I gritted my teeth hard, my body trembling in anger. Although Mark is my biological father, he doesn’t have the right to treat Mom like sh*t. That’s really too much. A couple will never do that even if they get into an argument.

Back then, Lyle hated me a lot, but he never mistreated me. How dare Mark do that? How can he?

“I’m sorry, Miss. You can’t enter.”

“Get lost!”

“Miss, you can’t go up without an appointment. Please stop right here, or I’m calling the security guards.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

As soon as I reached Goldstein Corporation, a man walked forward to stop me from going upstairs. I wouldn’t have made a fuss under normal circumstances, but I was so furious right then I could not even think straight. I pushed him away hard and roared, “Do you know who I am? How dare you get in my way? Get lost!”

The receptionist got terrified upon seeing my vicious expression. She stood there with a helpless look, but she did not plan to move away. It was fortunate that I was considered famous in the company. After a man approached her to tell her my identity, she swiftly walked away.

I headed upstairs and walked toward Mark’s office. Before I could push the door open, Christopher’s voice sounded from the inside. My expression changed drastically as I stood still in front of the door.

“Mr. Goldstein, are you sure you want to get involved in this? I can ask Darius to stop pursuing this matter, but you can’t hide it forever. Someone will definitely find out what you’re doing right now in the future. If that happens, Eve is the one who’s going to get upset. Why don’t you give up now and stay away from all these crimes?”
