A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 475 As It Was Back Then

"Damn, I don't regret it!"

"If one day you regret it, tell me!" She lowered her head so he wouldn't see her red eyes.

"There won't be that day!" He assured.

In the afternoon, Macey was going to see Mabel, and Charles accompanied her. They got a call from Leila, so they went back to the base to pick up Leila. And finally, the three of them came back. They wanted to give Mabel a surprise, so they didn't tell her in advance.

Leila realized that they had really made up when they sat in Charles' car! Looking at her sister's shy look, she understood what had happened last night.

The two sat in the back seat while Leila held her hand. She was excited beyond words.

"Leila, from today onwards, I am your brother-in-law!" Charles drove in front and didn't forget to announce his new status.

"Brother-in-law?" Leila was stunned.

"I just got a marriage license with your sister!" He said.

"Ah..."

"What? You have a problem with that?"

"No, no, how could I? Brother-in-law! Oh, good, Charles, welcome you as my brother-in-law. You must make my sister happy in the future!" Leila said very ingratiatingly. "No problem!"

Macey did not speak but looked out the window quietly. Could she really have the so-called happiness?

When the car arrived at the house, Charles saw Nora's car while her driver was waiting at the door. Seeing him, the driver greeted politely. "Mr. Read, hello!" "What's Boss doing here?"

"Boss comes often these days!" The driver said.

The three of them frowned. What was Nora doing here?

Walking to the door, Leila was puzzled when she heard the sound of her mother talking to Nora from inside. All three of them paused. They did not open the door and froze at the door.

Because they heard Nora say, "Mabel, after all these years, now you still refuse to forgive me? I really meant well in the beginning! It's just that I shouldn't have told your sister on her wedding day with Brian!" "Let bygones be bygones!" Mabel said quietly. "That's fate. I'm sorry for my sister after all!"

"Don't blame yourself. It was not your fault. After all, it was you and Brian who met first! After all, you were the one who was with him that night. He was the one who misunderstood and thought it was April!" Leila was frozen, and so was Macey.

The two looked at each other for a moment, stunned, and stiffened in the doorway.

"What can I do if he and I met first? Did you think he thought it was my sister he was with that night, so he married her and wanted to be responsible for her? Do you think that if you hadn't run to tell him that it was me that night, maybe I wouldn't have been a mistress between my sister and Brian in this life and spent all my youthful years in loneliness!"

"I'm sorry! I was not supposed to tell him. If I hadn't talked too much and let you go, maybe this wouldn't have happened. I really thought he would call off the wedding with April. But no, he married April anyway!"

"You're wrong. He knew it was me that night. He did know! I'm not blaming you for this. I'm mad at you for doing that to Macey and Leila, for hurting so many innocent people for the sake of dead ones!" "How is that possible?" Nora was stunned. "Why did he marry your sister when he knew the truth?"

"Nora, don't you understand? He was in love with my sister too! He first fell in love with me, got me, and found my sister more beautiful. He wanted both the peony and the hibiscus. He fell in love with me and my sister at the same time. My sister was right when she said that Brian was our sisters' destiny in this life. Actually, what's the point of blaming you? It has nothing to do with you. After you told him the truth about that night, didn't he still have a wedding? Didn't he come back to me after the wedding night? He just wanted me and my sister, and he wouldn't let either one go!"

Mabel's voice had the emotion of being disillusioned with this human world after all the vicissitudes. "It was my lack of self-respect. I shouldn't have had a relationship with him again, and I failed to resist his sweet words and fell in love again. I was young and reckless, thinking that love was enough, but I didn't realize that I had hurt others, harmed my sister, and Macey, and my daughter. I let my daughter be an illegitimate child for years. I am most sorry for my daughter! Despite the guilt towards my sister, Brian was by her side six days a week after all. Seven days a week, and he only gives me one day! I didn't fight or grab and waited for over 20 years. Finally, he felt sorry for me and wanted to break up with my sister! In fact, I really didn't want to marry him. I just want to go on like this. Anyway, I was wrong, and I don't care about the future. But he filed for divorce with my sister. Because of the divorce, my sister got killed!"

"I still can't figure out how he could love both of you at the same time!!!"

"I always knew that. But what could be done? I loved him! I was willing to be the lover between them. But my sister didn't know that I was the first to fall in love with Brian, and she didn't know that we had a relationship before. She thought that we were simply schoolmates, so she lived a carefree and happy life for more than a decade! I, on the other hand, have been living in self-loathing. I was always guilty, sad, and lonely! Love is the gut-piercing poison that swims through my body. I don't die but I'm left with the aftermath!"

"We're all miserable to fall in love with a man like that. Mabel, I'm sorry!"

"Don't be sorry! I shouldn't blame you either. I was ashamed into anger. You are my best friend. It was wrong of me to be angry with you that day. I just couldn't accept the truth that he was going to marry my sister, and I heard that you went to him, so I couldn't help but be mean to you and break off friendship with you! Who would have thought that we would be separated for so many years! In my heart, I do feel guilty towards you, too. You know what? The first time I saw Vincent, I guessed that he was your child. That child looks like you!"

"Mabel, you really don't blame me?"

"I don't blame you. I've lived half my life, and I've seen everything!" Mabel sighed. "One is already having a family by the age of thirty; one is no longer confused about things by the age of forty; one is no longer afraid of death by the age of fifty. You and I are now at the age of fifty, just move on!"

"So you've endured so much?!" Nora murmured, "I really didn't expect it!"

"What's that? My sister is the greatest. She wanted us to be together before she died, but, you know what? We did get married. But since my sister died, I've never been intimate with Brian! We slept in the same bed, but he didn't touch me, and we were never close again! We were like an old friend who talked occasionally, but no longer an intimate couple. Because each of the three of us is indispensable, and we are not complete without my sister!"

"Never mind, forget it! I don't have many days left. I just hope that in my lifetime, I can still hold my grandson, then I will be satisfied! It's better to be open-minded in life. Only by letting go can you be at ease!" "Don't mention it! Do you want to eat the meat I cooked? I'll make it for you!"

"I'll help you!"

The people outside the door were frozen when they heard such a conversation!

After a while, Macey came to her senses first and whispered, "Did Auntie know Dad first?"

"Sister..." Leila didn't expect it either. Her mother had never said these words to her. So, it turned out that her mother had been living such a hard life!

"Am I wrong about her?" Macey asked herself, and also Charles.

Charles reached out, wrapped his arms around Macey, and whispered, "Pretend you don't know anything. I think this is the only way that won't make your aunt embarrassed!" Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Leila really didn't expect that her mom was the first one to know Dad. How could Dad fall in love with two women at the same time? How did this make Mom feel? She thought she should not comment on the elders' affairs as a junior, not to mention that Dad had already gone, and now there was no point in saying anything! The deceased had passed away!

Leila looked up at Macey and found that she too was in shock. She whispered, "Sister, let's pretend we don't know. After all, Dad is dead!"

Macey paused and was silent for a few seconds before finally nodding, "Fine. Let's pretend we don't know!"

The three of them lingered for a moment to calm themselves, before entering the door. Inside the house, Mabel and Nora heard voices, looked up, and saw the people standing in the doorway.

Both of them were stunned.

When she saw Macey, Mabel was in a trance and immediately came over, "Macey, you're back? You're back?"

Macey's eyes suddenly got red. She went up and hugged Mabel, "Auntie, I'm back..."

"Good girl!" Mabel was a little surprised by Macey's intimate action, but she still rejoiced at the change in her. She embraced her tightly.

This was a scene Leila had been looking forward to for years. Several years! Since the death of her aunt, her sister had been cold and indifferent to her mother. Now that her sister had taken the initiative to embrace her mother. Her mother must be very relieved and happy, right?

"Auntie... forgive me for not knowing anything before... Auntie... I love you..." Macey's eyes were red and tears fell down and dripped on Mabel's shoulder.

"Macey?" Mabel was even more flattered. She murmured, but with heartfelt joy. "Good girl, good girl! I love you too..."

Charles was also relieved to see this scene. If everyone could let go of the hatred in their hearts, how beautiful would this world be?

Leila also came forward. The three of them embraced together and the sweet scene made both Charles and Nora's eyes wet.

Mabel cried for joy when she learned that Macey and Charles had got their marriage license, "You're married. It's good to be married. It's good to be married!"

Leila had never seen her mother so happy, not even when she and her father finally got married.

She got a call from Renee. Renee's voice came over the phone, "You didn't come back last night. I'm starving to death, and I don't dare to go downstairs. Hurry up and bring me food!"

"Ah! Sorry, sorry, I'll go right now!" Leila just remembered that it was time to buy something for Renee. She didn't have enough to eat and had to be restocked immediately.

"Mom, I'm going out and coming back for dinner tonight. You make something delicious. My sister and brother-in-law are back, and Mrs. White is here too. We didn't even know you knew each other before!" Leila walked up to Nora and smiled at her.

Nora took off one of the emerald bracelets she was wearing and put it on Leila's wrist without saying a word. "Leila, this bracelet belongs to the White family. I'll pass it on to you from now on!"

"This... Mrs. White..." Leila was about to refuse.0000
