The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 221 Aiden Is Struck With a Fever

After leaving Galaxy Bay, Amanda headed to the cemetery instead of going home.

She had to see her mother, for she hadn’t done so in a long time.

On the way to her destination, she bought some lilies, which were her mother’s favorite flowers. She placed them in front of her grave. As she looked at her mother’s smiling face in the photo, her into crescents as well.

“How are you doing. Mom? I haven’t visited you for a while because I’ve been swamped with work.” Amanda sighed and crouched down before touching her mother’s photo. As she looked at her mother’s smile, she felt downcast.

“Mom, why have I fallen for the same man twice? Why am I so foolish? I don’t hate him or anyone else. I only blame myself for being unwise.”

Her eyes welled up with tears. As she glanced at her mother’s photo, she recalled what had happened in the last moments of her life.

Before her mother passed away, Elias fulfilled his duty as a son-in-law. Although Elias didn’t love Amanda, he never evaded his responsibilities.

The man stood in front of the woman’s deathbed and listened to her last words patiently. Although he was merely putting on an act, he appeared serious.

At that time, Amanda was grateful that he was willing to play along so that her mother could leave for the other world in peace.

As she recalled the scene back then, her tears slid down her cheeks and fell onto the lilies.

This time, she was more sorrowful than how she felt four years ago.

She remained standing there until all her tears dried up. Then, she looked up at the endless sky, feeling. that her life was hopeless.

“I’ll take my leave now, Mom. I’ll visit you again. I’m sorry for always talking about myself whenever I come here. I hope you’re not pissed at me.” She put on a listless smile.

All of a sudden, her phone started ringing. She fished it out and realized it was Selina calling.

She quickly pulled herself together and connected the call before placing the phone beside her car..
