Chapter258
Terrence agreed, and then he and Bethany got their marriage
certificate smoothly.
Last time, Terrence broke his promise and exposed Bethany in
public. Luckily, the people who knew about it were just
acquaintances of the Duarte and McConnell families, so it
wasn’t a big deal. This time, he planned to make Bethany
completely public, but the McConnell family definitely couldn’t
agree to that.
Terrence went to the cemetery. There were already fresh
flowers and offerings there. Looks like Evangeline had been
here.
After going to the cemetery, Terrence went to Linden Manor
too.
There were a lot of my mom’s things in her room.
After Terrence went in, there were fresh chrysanthemums and
Mom’s favorite orchids inside.
These things were always done by Evangeline before.
Terrence didn’t let Krista in, he said he wanted to be with his
mom alone.
Krista didn’t plan to go in either.
She finally got a chance to be alone with Terrence, and she
wanted to make the most of it.
Terrence just kept picking food for Bethany all night and didn’t
really eat anything himself.
She ordered some takeout, and then opened a bottle of red wine.
Although Bethany left Vespera Villa, her business wasn’t
completely settled, so she didn’t contact Julio.
But she went back to her own little apartment.
In their own place, it seemed like people were a lot more
relaxed, without that kind of pressure they felt at Vespera Villa.
Actually, today was Terrence’s birthday.
No wonder Terrence never celebrated his birthday in the past.
So, today was actually his mom’s death anniversary.
She once threw a birthday party for Terrence, and he even got
mad about it. Back then, she felt pretty bad.
Chapter258
Now I knew there was a special reason he wouldn’t celebrate his
birthday, and it didn’t really feel like anything anymore.
I found out the answer too late.
Maybe if it had been earlier, she might have felt all her
grievances were gone, and she might even have gone to
apologize to Terrence and felt sorry for him.
So, everything was arranged by fate.
He and she were from two different worlds. From the very
beginning, they shouldn’t have gotten together.
Tonight, I guess neither Krista nor the McConnell family could
sit still.
Let them deal with each other.
Only with these, she could leave smoothly tomorrow.
Krista got everything ready and took a deep breath.
During this time, Terrence seemed to care more about Bethany.
Luckily, her appearance made Bethany lose her obsession with
marriage.
She didn’t really dare to show anything in front of Bethany, and
she was also worried that Bethany would tell Terrence if she
Chapter258
found out something.
There was no need to worry about it anymore, it was Bethany
herself who wanted to give up on Terrence.
She thought, as long as she tried hard, she could definitely win
Terrence’s heart back.
Krista went to knock on the door.
“Terrence.”
Terrence came out of the room, and his handsome features
looked a bit gloomy.
Krista knew he was feeling sad now and said softly, “You
haven’t eaten much tonight, right? You must be hungry. I asked
the restaurant to send some food over. Eat something before
you go back.”
“Had no appetite.”
On days like this, he really couldn’t eat.
Krista looked sad, “I never had a birthday since I was a kid. Can
you just have a birthday meal with me? No cake, no birthday
wishes, just a meal, is that okay?”
Krista was born on the day Terrence’s mom died. Terrence’s
Chapter258
grandparents only had Terrence’s mom as their child. After
Terrence’s mom died, on their way home from the hospital, they
found newborn Krista.
