Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 149 Reconciliation

Erin’s voice was hoarse as she asked over the phone, “Why is he here? How did he know that our mother was hospitalized?”

Gavin confessed immediately. “I’m sorry… I told lan about this. I was really scared at that time. Mom had just been taken to the emergency room, and I couldn’t find Dad. You didn’t show up in time either, so… I just hoped that someone capable would show up quickly. But stupid me forgot that lan and you were already divorced. He wouldn’t bother with our family’s affairs anymore, and he’s not in Southwrok County since he’s in the city. When I realized my mistake, I informed lan about it.”

He was very guilty about what he did, so he spoke with a bit of trepidation, as if afraid that Erin would get mad. After hearing her younger brother’s explanation, Erin understood completely. In any case, there was no point crying over spilled milk. Now that everyone was at the hospital she had no reason to send lan away.

“Gavin, I’ll be back soon.” Erin had already composed herself. After all, this wasn’t her private space. Her mother was still in the hospital, and no matter how much emotional distress she felt, she had to endure it. Besides love, there were also family and other responsibilities

in life.

Tentatively, Gavin asked, “Can you forgive me, Erin? I know you don’t want any contact with lan anymore, but I-”

“It’s okay. Gavin. What’s done is done. If something happens at home next lime, just give me a call. Don’t bother contacting lan again,” Erin

reminded him with a sigh.

“Ok, I understand.”

After Gavin hung up, lan, who was beside him, immediately asked, “How did it go, Gavin? What did your sister say?”

“Don’t worry, it seems like my sister isn’t angry. She won’t make you leave when she comes back.” Gavin didn’t hold any resentment

toward lan.

lan, who was dressed in a summer suit, seemed to be in good spirits. He was holding a box of expensive supplements worth a thousand dollars. Standing with Gavin in the corridor outside the ward, he attracted a lot of attention. Gavin was a sunny and handsome young man,

while lan was elegant and charismatic.

Many people passing by couldn’t help but steal glances at them. Handsome men like lan were rare in a small county like Southwrok County, and they were even least likely to appear in a hospital.

A particularly enthusiastic young nurse approached them and asked, “Are you a family member visiting a patient? Are you looking for the ward number of the patient?”

lan smiled at the young and pretty nurse in front of him and spoke very gentlemanly, “Yes, we’re here to visit a patient. We know the ward number. Thank you.”

His tone was polite, while his gaze was calm and friendly. Gavin secretly observed all of this. lan had contacted Gavin several times before, showing concern for his studies. He kept using the excuse of providing nutritional supplements for Gavin to give him money.

Gavin had already received nearly a hundred thousand dollars from lan without the knowledge of Cherry, Grayson, or Erin. Naturally, he wouldn’t let Erin find out about this.
