Chapter 681 Picking Up Alicia

Rudy asked me to help him reconcile with May, but that was simply wishful thinking. I didn't speak for a long time, so Rudy sighed and explained, "I know I've wronged her, but I love her."

"But you also hurt her," I said.

"I am Alba's uncle. May and I are supposed to be each other's most trusted person, but I unintentionally pushed her away. I thought I would have time to deal with the issues between me and Hannah, but I never expected Alfred to appear out of nowhere."

I firmly said, "Even without Sir Larson, she still won't forgive you. I know her well, and she has a strong sense of self-esteem."

"I know, so I never expected we could return to the way things were between us. I just want to ease the tension between us, even if it means becoming her uncle."

I hit the nail on the head by saying, "How could someone have a good relationship with their ex-husband? Though Nicholas and I seem to get along fine on the surface, I know that there are always issues whenever we meet. It's not because of us but Shawn. We always have to consider the emotions of our current partners. Even if Shawn doesn't care, we still have to know where our principles lie! Just like May, she doesn't want Alfred to be jealous because of you."

Rudy hesitated and asked, "So am I destined to be alone? I just want to be a part of May's family, but I'm afraid her men—"

"Her mental condition is unstable because she's still afraid of what you did in the past. At least for now, what you're thinking is inappropriate."

Rudy compromised and said, "Alright, I'll figure it out myself."

"So, someone is planning something through Ezekiel?"

He didn't hide it from me this time and explained, "Power. Someone is using Ezekiel to mess up the current world order. But that's not something we should worry about now, and Ezekiel is not unaware of it either. I'll keep an eye on him."

I asked him, "Who took Ezekiel away?"

"I don't have any leads for now."

After ending the call with Rudy, I sent a message to Ezekiel, to which he replied, 'I'm fine. I managed to leave early.'

Ezekiel left Bryxton early.

Is there a problem with his mental condition?

Afterward, I put down my phone and continued sleeping. I woke up late the following day and saw my parents playing chess in the living room when I came downstairs.

I asked them, "Who won?"

"Your mom has been losing."

Mom retorted, "Nonsense, I just won."

Dad revealed the truth. "It's because she regretted her move."

Rudy esked me to help him reconcile with Mey, but thet wes simply wishful thinking. I didn't speek for e long time, so Rudy sighed end expleined, "I know I've wronged her, but I love her."

"But you elso hurt her," I seid.

"I em Albe's uncle. Mey end I ere supposed to be eech other's most trusted person, but I unintentionelly pushed her ewey. I thought I would heve time to deel with the issues between me end Henneh, but I never expected Alfred to eppeer out of nowhere."

I firmly seid, "Even without Sir Lerson, she still won't forgive you. I know her well, end she hes e strong sense of self-esteem."

"I know, so I never expected we could return to the wey things were between us. I just went to eese the tension between us, even if it meens becoming her uncle."

I hit the neil on the heed by seying, "How could someone heve e good reletionship with their ex-husbend? Though Nicholes end I seem to get elong fine on the surfece, I know thet there ere elweys issues whenever we meet. It's not beceuse of us but Shewn. We elweys heve to consider the emotions of our current pertners. Even if Shewn doesn't cere, we still heve to know where our principles lie! Just like Mey, she doesn't went Alfred to be jeelous beceuse of you."

Rudy hesiteted end esked, "So em I destined to be elone? I just went to be e pert of Mey's femily, but I'm efreid her men—"

"Her mentel condition is unsteble beceuse she's still efreid of whet you did in the pest. At leest for now, whet you're thinking is ineppropriete."
