No Remarriage for us Stay Away by Livia Storm

Chapter 244 So Petty

"It's still uncertain," Zachary said, casting a subtle glance at Lenora. "We need to wait for the doctor to advise us on when the surgery can take place"

Lenora considered that it was likely because his current health wasn't up to par. He needed to regain some strength before he could go under the knife,

"I'll be outside during Uncle Zachary's surgery, keeping him company" Harietta piped up.

"Good girl, Hattic"

"Uncle Zachary, your hand's bony"

"Well, of course they are! With nothing but bones left in his hand, wouldn't it be bony?" Lenora said with a scoff, crossing her arms over her chest as she shot a glance at Zachary, Zachary could only manage a quiet response.

"Aunt Lenora, don't be so hard on Uncle Zachary! He didn't want things to turn out this way." Harrietta interjected.

"He didn't want it to be like this? Then why, knowing full well about his weak stomach, did he still drink so much alcohol?" Lenora challenged.

"That night, Uncle Zachary was just too heartbroken!" Harrietta feigned a sigh, her eyebrows drooping. "All I can say is that Uncle Zachary loves you way too much...

"Harrietta Fuller" Lenora replied, her expression turning somber.

Immediately, Harrietta covered her mouth with both hands, looking at Zachary and blinking innocently

"Why are you getting mad at Hattie? She's right," Zachary chimed in, meeting Lenora's calm gaze.

A slight pause gripped Lenora's heart.

"So what? We're already over. There's no way I would take you back just because you're hurting yourself."

"I'm not trying to guilt-trip you" he said, carefully observing her reaction. "I just hope you won't distance yourself from me... Don't completely abandon me, and at least give me a fair chance to compete with Connor..." He tightened his grip involuntarily. "Uncle Zachary, you're hurting me" Harrietta whispered cautiously,

"Sorry" Zachary quickly released Harrietta's hand.

Lenora lowered her gaze, remaining silent.

She returned the dustpan and broom to their designated spots before turning to Harrietta. "Hattic, Why don't you stay here and keep your Uncle Zachary company? I'll be leaving first." Ashadow crowed Zachary's eyes,

She's still not going to agree?

"No, don't!" Harrietta suddenly jumped from her sickbed, clinging to Lenora's leg, "Aunt Lenora, please
