Chapter 1002
Even though Clait was older now and her eyes had changed slightly from when she was young, the basic features,
like the shape of her eyes, should not have changed much “Yeah, especially those eyes, they’re full of kindness
when she looks at people, but there’s also this strength in them That was Sonya’s most vivid memory of Comelia’s
mom
Back in the day, Sonya used to wonder how could there be such a captivating woman in the world. She appeared
delicate and never got too emotional, almost as if a gust of wind could blow her over Yet, she gave off this vibe of
strength, as if nothing could faze her
Sonya continued, “Nelly, I don’t know what your mom went through, or what happened between you two. I’m not in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe position to make excuses for anyone. But I gotta say, your mom is a really good person. Maybe she had her
reasons for leaving you guys back then. Give her a chance to explain.”
Comelia, “Thanks. I will
Sonya, “Both your dad and grandma passed away. We thought you had no family left. Now you’ve found your sister,
and your mom’s back. Wouldn’t it be great if you guys could reconcile and live happily as a family?”
Comelia. Yeah.”
Abigail, Mom, it’s getting late. Let’s eat.”
Sonya, “You guys have a seat, Ill go get the soup”
Abigail, Tll help you”
Sonya, “No, you and Nelly sit down.”
Abigail, “Okay”
Allen enthusiastically asked, “Dylan, fancy a drink?”
Dylan replied, “I’m a lightweight. I’ll get drunk after one drink. But if you don’t mind me talking a lot, I’ll join you”
wwww
The head director of Hartley Group was willing to have a drink with him. Allen’s impression of him shot up. “In that
case, let’s have a few drinks. I don’t know if you’ll like the food my wife made.”
Dylan, “I grew up in an orphanage, had my fair share of hard times. I find everything delicious now”
Dylan’s candidness won Allen’s trust, who reciprocated with frankness. Abigail tried several times to stop it, but
failed
As Dylan drank more, he became more talkative. “I like your daughter Abby: I want to marry her. Would you agree

When he said that, Cornelia and Abigail weren’t surprised, but Allen and Sonya were taken aback. Fearing Allen
might do something inappropriate, Sonya jumped in, “Abby already has a fiancé. He just left Rosenberg today.”
Dylan, “Her fiance is unreliable. Don’t be fooled by his facade. Choose me I’m more dependable than him.”
Cornelia couldn’t stand it anymore, “Please watch your words.”
Dylan retorted, “Ms. Stewart, this isn’t work hours, it’s my personal time. I have the right to pursue my own
happiness…”
Before he could finish, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Everyone was taken aback. Cornelia reacted the fastest, Tll call an ambulance. We need to get you to the hospital.”
Dylan waved her off, “No need, it’s just my chronic disease. I have medication in my car. Ms. Stewart, could you get
it for me, please?”
