When Carle was in high school, she knew that her son liked Liz. She felt that the two of them could get
together in the future since they were well-matched in various aspects.
It was a shame…
Holly sighed silently and didn’t say anything.
Elisa also sighed slightly. She looked at Holly and saw that Holly didn’t have her usual cold expression.
Instead, there was a gentle smile on her face. Elisa’s guilt and complicated feelings increased.
“Mrs. Semoa, with my current situation, you should know that… I am not worthy of Carle.”
Holly’s eyes flashed slightly, and she looked at Elisa subconsciously. “We don’t mind.”
Elisa’s gaze trembled slightly. Sheena and Rachel were a little perplexed.
Although they were close to Carle, they didn’t interact much with his family. They would meet older
members of his family from time to time, but they didn’t know them well.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHolly’s manner expressed that she didn’t mind Elisa being divorced as long as the two of them were
willing.
This was why she didn’t stop the two of them from getting together when she heard it from her son.
Elisa took a breath in and shook her head gently. She said with a bitter smile, “Mrs. Semoa, my current
circle is a little chaotic. Others might think that I’m being reckless. How can you trust me so easily?”
“I’ve watched you grow up. Would I not understand your character?” Holly looked at Elisa as if wanting
to advise her, but she stopped because she didn’t have an aggressive personality.
Elisa sighed and said softly, “Thank you for trusting me, Mrs. Semoa. It’s just that… I might disappoint
you.”
Understanding flickered across Holly’s eyes. She smiled lightly the next moment and said, “Have you
decided?”
Elisa nodded. There was guilt in her eyes as she said, “I am ultimately unworthy of Carle, and I have
never thought of Carle as a boyfriend. He’s like family to me.”
Holly sighed. “Carle just isn’t lucky enough.”
Rachel and Sheena sat at one side. They didn’t interrupt, and they didn’t know what to say.
The room suddenly quietened.
Even Elisa didn’t know what to say.
A server suddenly knocked at the door and broke the silence.
The food that they had ordered was served. The server politely told them to enjoy their meal before
leaving.
In a flash, the air in the private room was quiet once more.
Rachel picked up her cutlery at once. “Let’s eat! The food here is pretty good. I’ve been wanting to eat
here for quite some time.”
Holly couldn’t restrain her smile. “Greedy cat. You’ve loved food the most since you were young.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRachel suddenly burst out laughing. “Without a desire for good food, what’s the point of living? I have
to eat well!”
Sheena looked at her disdainfully at once. “Look at yourself. You’re the most well-fed among all of us,
and you’re still thinking of eating!”
“Hey! You’re the ones who are too skinny! My figure is the norm! I’m five feet four, and I weigh one
hundred and four pounds. Am I fat? Am I?!”
“No, you’re not! You’re the norm!” There was a rare smile in the corner of Holly’s lips.
The air became lively because of Rachel. It wasn’t as solemn as before when everyone spoke. When
they were done eating, Holly looked at Elisa, and there was a gentle smile on the corner of her lips.
“Liz, you asked me out today to tell me this so that I can find a way to communicate it to Carle. Am I
right?”
