Chapter 109: Elena calls Bess
“So I’m going to identify with Bess.” Elena didn’t hear the deeper meaning of Albert’s words and just said what she thought.
“You’re going to tell Bess all about it?” said Albert, shocked. He was wondering if this was considered betrayal.
“Yes, one of them is my husband and the other is my family, I don’t want to see either one of them get hurt, moreover, I think that the affection thing is not one-sided, maybe Fred’s father was at fault back then too? He can’t put all the fault on mom.” Elena solemnly said.
She thought about this matter for a long time, including her own matter, just like Fred and Bess, if Fred did not cooperate, Bess no matter how passionate, no matter how much to Fred that, nothing could have happened, so she thought that twenty years ago, maybe it is the same.
“This, perhaps only the parties concerned know it, but I heard Fred said, his father kept a diary, maybe that has a record, or you ask your mother, so that the year is very clear.” As a bystander, Albert really did not know what to say, he said a little improperly, this may destroy the couple’s feelings.
“There’s a diary?” Elena was shocked, but yet also more interested in reading that diary, was it because of what was written in it? Why else would Fred’s hatred run so deep.
“I just heard Fred mention it, or you could ask Fred and take a look, it’s just that no matter what, the other party is your mother, I’m afraid it’s most difficult for you.” Albert was quite embarrassed, and really hoped he wouldn’t make any serious mistakes this time.
“I understand, Albert, I’ll call him.” Elena nodded her head, by which time the bed had been moved over and the two children had gathered around.
“Okay, I’ll leave you to rest tonight then, I’ll come and pick up Jeffery and Jack first thing in the morning to go out.” Albert nodded his head, their mother and son’s sleeping problems were solved, he still had to make a trip back to Wisky Bar.
“Albert, thank you.” Elena said gratefully, “Jeffery, will Jack give Uncle a ride for Mommy?”
Whatever would happen between her and Fred, but she decided to let Fred meet the two children.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“Okay, Uncle, we’ll see you off.” Jeffery jumped out of bed pleasantly and the two brothers sent Albert away.
Elena turned off the TV, he wanted Bess to meet the two children before Fred did, it was not too late for the wedding to take place.
Although it was late, Elena, who couldn’t sleep, decided to give Bess a call.
And Bess in another hospital, who was complaining to her mother, saw that it was Elena on the phone and deliberately said, “Elena, Fred and I are busy today, we have to work on the wedding lately, when we are done, I will come back to you, and also, we already got our license today.”
“Bess, is it okay if I want to see you?” Elena took a deep breath.
“Elena, didn’t you understand what I said, this lady has to prepare for the wedding and take wedding photos, she doesn’t have time to go for now.” Bess said in a fiery voice.
“In that case, may I ask if your mommy is in China? Can I see her?” Elena knew that Bess must not be able to see her because she was in the hospital, so she said again.
“No, my mommy is back in America, what are you trying to provoke? Elena, that’s my mom, do you think she’ll believe your bullshit?” Bess glanced at her mother at her side and said smugly.
“Don’t worry, I wasn’t going to say that, I have something else to confirm to your mother, please ask her for me, would you please ask her for me? Please ask her if she knows Gary Costa?” Elena vaguely heard a different voice from Bess’s phone and guessed that it should be her mother somewhere.
“Come on, Elena, what are you trying to do again? That Gary Costa is not someone from your family again, is he? How could my mom ……”
“Bess, give me the phone.” Bess was saying, but her mom held out her hand for the phone.
“Mommy, you don’t really know any Gary Costa, do you?” Bess asked her mom in shock as her hand pressed the phone.
“Just give me the phone.” Carole reached over and took the phone.
Seeing mommy walk out with the phone, Bess shouted from the bed, “Mom, that woman is a mistress, she stole Fred from me, you don’t want to be fooled by her.”
Carole took the phone outside, looked at the phone and didn’t hang up, and said into the phone, “Are you still there, please?”
“I am, you are–” Elena heard a different voice but did not know how to address it, it seemed a little abrupt to call out to her mother now, but it was clearly her mother if she called out to her aunt was also strange.
“I’m Carole, who is Gary Costa to you?” Carole’s voice changed tone a bit, as if she had realized Elena’s identity.
“I’m his daughter, Elena, I’m 28 years old, can I see you for a moment, Ms. Carole?” Elena thought for a moment and decided to call Ms. Carole first.
“Yes, child, where are you? Can we meet tomorrow at a location?” Carole’s voice seemed overly excited and all a bit unclear.
“I’m sorry, I’m in the hospital, I can’t be discharged for a short time, can you come to Sunshine Hospital, OB/GYN ward 6346 please?” Elena at this time but incomparably calm, the two children to send Albert out has returned, this will be Elena is around.
“Mommy, uncle has gone back, who are you talking to on the phone?” Jeffery was almost on top of Elena.
“Idiot, you’re on top of Mommy, move away.” Jack saw it and wailed.
“Okay, I’ll see you first thing in the morning then, son, are you married already?” Carole, who heard the child’s voice over the phone, said with a trembling voice.
“Yes, Ms. Carole, it’s already late, I’ll leave you to rest, we’ll see you tomorrow.” Elena knew in her heart that Romy
“Okay, I’ll be on time tomorrow.”
Elena hung up the phone, unable to hide the excitement in her heart, went to America to look for her twice, the first time the person was not there, the second time because she saw Bess and did not have the courage to go in. Tomorrow, tomorrow finally she can see her mommy.
“Mommy, who are you going to see tomorrow?” Jack had just been listening intently to his mother on the phone, and this time Elena asked as soon as she hung up the phone.
“Baby, tomorrow morning, the person coming will probably be your grandmother, so you must be polite oh.” Elena was really afraid that the two kids would say the wrong thing tomorrow, but it was hard to kick the kids out.
“Yes, I will.” The two children said in unison.
The next morning, Elena woke up and wanted to get up and go get breakfast by herself, but Kevin came in and scolded Elena so much that he sent her back to the hospital bed.
“Brother, my mom might come.” Elena said to Kevin.
“Mom, you informed her?” Kevin said in surprise, but when he saw the look on Elena’s face, he then understood somewhat and wondered, “You contacted Carole?”
“Yes, there were some things I had to figure out.” Elena nodded her head, she had wanted to meet her mother ever since she found out about her birth five years ago. She had guessed that she might be an illegitimate child, she just never thought that her mom would be the mistress.
Kevin was silent for a moment before saying, “Then do you need to call Dad over?”
“Brother, thank you, I don’t want Mom and Dad to worry.” Elena thought for a moment before slowly shaking her head.
“Okay, you eat breakfast first, if she comes later, I’ll be responsible for watching the door always, right?” Kevin always agreed unconditionally to any of Elena’s requests, he had been like this since he was a child, even today when Elena was married and even as a wife, Kevin was still the same.
Half an hour later, Elena and her son had just finished breakfast when Carole arrived. Seeing Carole appearing in the hospital room, Elena didn’t have half a doubt that she looked so much like her mother.
Elena got out of bed excitedly, obviously having a lot to say, but at this moment she couldn’t say anything.
As soon as Kevin saw it, he was eager to take the two children away, “Jeffery, Jack, Uncle is taking you out to play.”
“Mommy, we’re not leaving, we’re staying to protect Mommy?” Jeffery hugged Elena’s leg, no matter who this person was, they would not leave, after they left that day, mommy was hospitalized, they were afraid of losing mommy, so last night the brothers made a decision to stay with mommy every step of the way.
“Brother, let them be.” Elena looked at the two children and said.
“Auntie Carole, sit down, I’ll go out and buy some drinks, what would you like to drink please?” Kevin had no choice but to turn to Carole.
“Coffee, please.” Even as she spoke, Carole just looked at Elena.
“Elena, your name is Elena, right?” Carole excitedly took Elena’s hand.
“Yes, Ms. Carole, please sit down.” Elena suppressed the excitement in her heart.
“You don’t feel well go back to bed first.” Carole said, coming forward to help Elena, but Jeffery and Jack stood in front of Elena, obviously to stop Carole’s approach.
“Jeffery, Jack, don’t be unreasonable.” Elena pulled away from the two children and returned to the bed herself, standing too long was really uncomfortable.
“Daughter, I’m sorry I didn’t do my …… best,” Carole looked gloomy and bowed her head, not daring to face Elena directly.
“In fact, I see you today is not to say goodbye, just want to ask you, do you know Edward Garner?” Elena stammered for a while, before saying.
“How do you know Edward Garner?” Carole blushed a little, her eyes a little panicked.
“Fred is Edward Garner’s son and my husband, and I-”
Elena only said the name of her father-in-law and husband, Carole stood up in shock, “What? Fred is Edward’s son? Did you say Fred is the president of The Cloud Group?”
“Yes, he is also my husband, in fact you can tell by looking at these two children, they look almost identical to Fred.” Elena saw the look on Carole’s face and her heart sank downward, could it be that her mother was really a mistress back then?
And who was her father, and who was Bess’ father? Would they be the same father?
“Yes, it’s like, it’s like ……” Carole reached out to touch the child’s face, but Jeffery looked down and avoided it.
Looking at Carole’s expression, Elena said arduously, “Back then, did you really have to intervene in their marriage? Did you really have to be the third party?”
