Chapter 939:

Ernest took a moment, collecting his thoughts. “After you moved on, I felt it was right to give Locke a real family environment. That’s what I thought they deserved.”

“That seems awfully convenient, doesn’t it?” Linda’s laugh was laced with bitterness as she forced her eyes open. “What about me, Ernest? Have you even thought about me?”

Ernest appeared puzzled by her question. “Linda, we ended our relationship, didn’t we? You walked away. You said you couldn’t handle Locke being in our lives.” That was indeed what she had expressed to him.

A mixture of shock and hurt crossed Linda’s face as she struggled to catch her breath. Then, she remembered watching Ernest give his carefully chosen pen to Elissa as a gift. She couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. “Ernest, do you realize? Throughout all our years together, you never once put that much thought into a gift for me.”

As she reflected on her time with the Flynn family, she couldn’t deny that Ernest had always met her material needs. But on birthdays and holidays, she either had to hint heavily or rely on his secretary, Quentin, or even Nyla to come up with gift ideas. Ernest’s only contribution was handing the gifts over when they were ready.

Ernest met her gaze, his expression unapologetic. “You already had everything you needed.”

Linda was taken aback by his blunt admission. The words stung deeply, and a sharp pain filled her chest. With frustration building, she pushed Ernest away forcefully. “Ernest, how can you be so indifferent? Let’s see how happy you are after this!”
