Chapter 25
Inside the Fletcher family’s house, it was still warm as spring and not affected by the cold weather outside.
Elliott had just changed his clothes and pushed open the door of the room, only to see his wife just sitting up from the bed, rubbing her eyes and sleepily asking him where he had just been.
Elliott paused for a moment, his eyes darkening as he remembered the scene just now, then he casually walked up and hugged her, giving her a kiss.
I didn’t go anywhere, I just went to the port to buy you some food.
Helen’s eyes widened as soon as she heard this, and she looked outside.
With such heavy rain, what will you do if you catch a cold?
Don’t worry, I’m in good health. Besides, our child wants to eat, so as a father, I must satisfy them.
He then raised his hand and gently touched Helen’s abdomen, his eyes filled with tenderness.
When it comes to children, Helen also raised her hand to cover his large hand, looking tenderly at her own belly.
She never imagined that she would become a mother one day.
She hurt her body because of the tragic news of Carter’s “sacrifice” at first, and then so many things happened later that doctors said it would
be difficult for her to conceive a child with her body.
But she happened to encounter that one in a million chance.
Facing this hard–won child, Helen cherished him especially, so she rarely paid attention to external matters. Whatever Elliott said was what it was, and she didn’t want to inquire further.
Elliott also saw this in Helen, which is why he kept Carter’s visit to the island a secret.
He didn’t want his wife to be hurt by such a person again.
After dinner. Elliott stayed by Helen’s side until she fell asleep, and then he went downstairs.
Due to Helen’s pregnancy, the Fletcher family and the Spencer family specifically hired many people to take care of them.
Seeing him coming down, the nanny who was originally standing by the window walked over to greet him.
“Sir.”
Elliott nodded, “Still there?”
The nanny replied hastily, “I have been standing for another night.”
“Hmph.” Elliott sneered, “We don’t need to worry about him anymore, whatever he does has nothing to do with us.”
After that, he reminded the nanny, “Helen has been experiencing some pregnancy symptoms recently, so please make the dishes less greasy.”
Last time the Spencer family sent salted pork and bamboo shoots, we
stewed them together.
“Okay, sir.”
After the servant left, Elliott walked over to the landline and made a phone call.
Hello, please transfer the call to the Hollinan family, thank you.
Although Elliott no longer paid attention to Carter, Helen couldn’t stay cooped up at home forever. She would always need to go out for a walk or work. So, in order to prevent Carter from disturbing them again, he called the Hollinan family to come and take Carter away.
At most one month, otherwise I will have to ask someone to “invite”
Carter back.
When he said this, a flash of fierceness passed through Elliott’s eyes.
It was another rainy night, and Carter couldn’t say for sure how many days it had been since he stood outside the Fletcher family’s house.
He clearly felt that his body was about to give out, but he still hadn’t seen Helen.
Soon the rain was pouring down harder and harder, and the lights in the Fletcher family’s house went out one by one.
As the last light went out, the brightness in Carter’s eyes also dimmed. completely.
He knew that today was another day of guarding the empty space.
His heart suddenly felt as if it had been hollowed out, leaving only endless despair and coldness.
Those words of Elliott’s were echoing in his cars again at this moment.
But he just couldn’t accept it.
They used to love each other so much, she even wanted to die for him when he “sacrificed” himself.
But now she doesn’t even want to see him.
“Ah…”
Carter’s mouth twitched with a bitter smile as he looked up at the dark. sky, rain hitting his face, as if even the heavens were mocking him.
With a loud thud, he could no longer support himself and his eyes went black, crashing heavily to the ground.
The heavy rain continued to fall mercilessly, as if it wanted to completely engulf him and her in this cold world.
In a daze, he seemed to hear someone urgently calling out to him.
Carter…
