Two Times the Charm Chapter 387

Chapter 387 

Aiden at least had the decency to return her smile, but Alex went straight for the jugular. “Why’d you make my mom leave? I hate you!” 

“Alex, sweetie, your mom’s departure wasn’t my doing.” Leah tried to defend herself. She needed to prevent any unexpected surprises that could jeopardize her plans. 

“Then explain why my parents started arguing the moment you showed up!” 

“I have no clue, and for the record, I’m not with your father.” Leah’s face fell into a sorrowful expression. “I genuinely like you and Aiden. I’m helping you guys without expecting any gratitude, but it’s not fair to blame me for things I didn’t do.” 

“My brother didn’t mean that. Don’t take it to heart.” Aiden quickly shot Alex a look, hinting for him to hold his tongue. It wouldn’t help to stir the pot now. 

Alex didn’t care. He stormed over to the hospital bed, pointing an accusing finger at Leah. “You impersonated my mom! Are you trying to take her place now? I’ll tell you what, I’d rather drop dead than call you mom!”

“I didn’t! I swear I didn’t!” Leah’s eyes welled up with tears. She was now looking quite pitiful. “You guys are misunderstanding me. I never wanted to replace your mom. Aiden, you know that, right? It was Mr. Milburn who begged me to help. Otherwise, your father would’ve taken you back, separating you from your mom. I tricked your dad to save your mom. It’s unfair to blame me, especially after I just saved you guys. Why else would I be lying here if not for your safety?” 

Aiden quickly pulled his brother back to his chair. “Don’t mind. He’s just shooting his mouth off. You know how he grew up with our mom; they relied on each other. She means the world to him. He hasn’t seen her for a while, so he’s a bit on edge. Please don’t take it personally. I apologize on his behalf.” 

Just as Aiden was about to bow in apology, Leah stopped him. There’s no need for that. It’s enough, as long as you understand. I’d hate for my intentions to be misinterpreted.” 

Aiden smiled, then asked Leah pointedly, “Do you know what happened between my parents? They haven’t been coming home together lately. They used to walk home hand in hand after work. They’d lift Alex up in their arms and then give me a kiss. We miss her.” 

Leah stared at the ceiling and then sighed. “You are still young. I understand why your grandparents and parents might want to keep you in the dark, but they should know you’re growing up. You deserve to know the truth. Your parents are divorced because your mother fell in love with another man.”
