You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 174

Steven said after thinking for a while, "Irene, I've asked Maisy to arrange a children's room for Eden. It's next to your room. You can move back in with Eden! It'll be easier for all of us to look after each other that way."

Irene shook her head. It was only natural for Steven to be fond of Eden. However, Deborah and Lily were a different story. The mother and daughter duo were bad news. If they tried anything, the consequences would be unimaginable. "You know what, I believe that you

have good intentions. If you want to see Eden, you can come by any time. I'll pass on the offer to move back."

"Are you worried about Lily? I've decided to send her to study abroad. We're making arrangements now and it'll be done soon..." Steven started filling her in with the details of Lily's move abroad. "After she leaves, she won't trouble you and Edric anymore."

Irene hadn't expected Steven to do all this for her. She shook her head. "Lily and her mother are just one reason why I don't want to move back. The other reason is that I won't be staying here for long anyways. I'm planning to move abroad, and bring Eden with me." "You're not going to remarry Edric?" Steven was surprised.

"So far, I have no plans to."

"Irene, Edric isn't a bad person. What happened was my fault back then. Please forgive him, just this once." Steven pleaded on Edric's behalf.

"This has nothing to do with the past..." Irene did not know how to explain her relationship with Edric.

"Then is it because of Lily? Irene, Edric never intended to be together with Lily. He was set up by that spiteful Rowane."

Steven told Irene what Marie had told him. "Irene, Edric is not irredeemably wicked. He is also a victim here. You should give him a chance, at least for the sake of the child."

Irene looked at Steven in surprise. She didn't know that Lily and Edric had gotten drunk and slept together. Steven's news came as a huge surprise to her.

Regardless of whether Edric had been tricked or not, it was a fact that he had relations with Lily. Irene smiled bitterly. Previously, she might have thought of giving Edric a chance, but how could she do so now when such a thing had happened?

Steven had no idea what was going through Irene's mind. He bowed his head and said, "Irene, I'm an old-timer. I can understand Edric's helplessness."

Irene interrupted him, "You mean as the two of you have committed adultery before, therefore you can relate to him?"

"No! I haven't cheated at all," Steven defended himself.

I had always blamed myself for what happened. I

you were the one who invited your mistress into the household, didn't you?" Irene pointed out bitterly. If Steven had just married Deborah after her mother died, she would have supported Steven's decision. However, she had stayed a

unforgivable. I know that I am a b*stard, and I've regretted it for half of my living years. It's because I've experienced it before, and that's why I'm here to persuade you. You and Edric still love each other, you can't allow the two of you to be separated just because other people are trying to break the two of you apart. Rowane deliberately wanted to keep you away from Edric to achieve her own selfish goals. If you leave Edric for good, then she will

earnestly, "There will always be many unexpected events in a person's life. What you are facing now is just a sliver of time in your long life. I hope that you won't step aside and instead face it head on together with Edric. Think about it. If you hadn't ran away back then and had listened to Edric's explanation, both of you would not be in this mess today. So Irene please,
