Dolores couldn’t believe her ears. Jessica’s words hit her like a thunderclap, and she felt as if she had been poured with cold water from head to toe and her entire body was numb.

Jessica grabbed Dolores’ hands immediately, “Lola…”

Dolores shook off Jessica’s hand abruptly and stood up. She took a few steps back, with her trembling lips, “Do you forget that how he forced you to divorce him and sent you, who were pregnant, abroad and didn’t even care about you?! You tell me that you want to remarry him now?!!”

“He used to be a bad person before. But, while you were away, he paid me frequent visits. And he was regretful about the things before…”

“Do you believe this?!” Dolores cut her off with a stern tone. She scratched her hair furiously. How could this happen?

“Mum, how can you easily put your trust in his sweet words? You have to be aware that he had abandoned you, as well as Beulah. He is a heartless person. How can you still believe in his sweet words?”

Jessica remained stern, with her lowered head, “I’ve already decided.”

Dolores leaned against the wall and looked at Jessica, “So, you’re just informing me today?”

“You can say so.” Jessica clutched her own hands tightly, and a frosty glint flashed across her eyes. She was guilty to her daughter, “I’m sorry to have you suffer with me…”

“You know I don’t care about this. I’m afraid that you’ll be hurt by Randolph again!” Dolores didn’t expect that Jessica would want to tell her such a thing.

“I know.” Jessica approached Dolores. She wished to grab her hand but was shook off again.

Dolores turned her head and was reluctant to look at her.

Jessica’s fingers were bent as she slowly drew her hand back, “I’ve already decided.”

There was no room for rebuttal. Dolores refused to agree, leaving Jessica with no choice, “I’ll move out today.”

“Why are you in such a rush?” Dolores couldn’t understand how she could forgive him this easily for causing her such pain.

“Did you already forget about Jeremy?” Dolores didn’t want to talk about it, but she tried to persuade her when she faced Jessica’s insistence.
