Chapter 1639 A jinx who caused harm


    Kate couldn’t understand Eva, and Eva had no intention of persuading Kate. She just tried to see things


    from Kate’s perspective and acknowledge her point of view.


    “Mrs. Evans, if I were you, facing a woman who is nothingpared to your own son, I would be just


    as dissatisfied as you are. I understand you, but please also think about Paul. It was his idea to marry


    me, not mine to marry him. If you want me to back off, it’s better to talk to him. If he is convinced and


    no longer wants to marry me, just let me know, and I won’t bother him anymore, even avoiding him in


    the future…”


    Eva said all this in one breath, her heart pounding. This was her first time standing firm against


    someone for Paul, even though she knew she was not as good as him or deserving of him. But


    because he loved her and she couldn’t let go of him, she was determined to fight for their rtionship.


    Kate scrutinized Eva and after a while, she suddenly smiled. “You just said you don’t love my son, and


    now you’re saying you don’t have to marry him. It seems that you don’t care much about my son. If


    that’s the case, why would you insist on marrying him just because of his passion?”


    Kate’s question was quite profound, and Eva found it difficult to express herself and lowered her head.


    Seeing her reaction, Kate continued, “Setting aside your personal background, academic abilities, and


    all that, just this point alone, I think every mother would want their future daughter-inw to


    wholeheartedly love their son. If you can’t even do that, what makes you think I can convince my son?”


    Upon hearing this, Eva’s lowered eyshes trembled slightly.


    If it weren’t for the one-night stand, she probably wouldn’t have considered marriage again. But after


    the one-night stand and hearing Paul say he must marry her, she couldn’t help but waver in her


    determination. However, the root of her wavering was not just Paul’s words of wanting to marry her. It


    was her realization that deep down, she hadn’t let go of Paul yet, which made her want to take another


    risk.


    However, in terms of deep love, it couldn’tpare to Amelia and James. At least in Eva’s eyes, her


    rtionship with Paul was fragile. Paul was used to being fickle; she didn’t know if he would continue to


    love her in the future.


    Eva had no sense of security about this, so she dared only say she liked Paul, not that she loved him.


    She wanted to control her feelings, so as not topletely copse or go crazy if she was betrayed.


    She didn’t want to be a hysterical woman or an abandoned wife. She could only remain calm by


    restraining her emotions.


    But obviously, these words were something Kate couldn’t understand. Kate was born into a wealthy


    family, had afortable life since childhood, and even had a husband who loved her wholeheartedly.


    She naturally couldn’t empathize.


    Eva didn’t want to speak ill of her son in front of Kate either.


    Eva’s silence made Kate feel even more sorry for Paul. “Ms. Miller, I’m speaking here. I’ve always been


    direct. Besides what I mentioned before, there’s another thing that really bothers me.”


    Eva slowly raised her head and asked Kate in confusion, “Did I do something wrong to you?”


    Kate shook her head, but there was a hint of anger in her indifferent eyes. “Before, my son got into an


    ident because of you, crashing into Jonny’s car. It was the first time I saw him injured. After


    managing to save him and sending him to the hospital, he was provoked by your ex-boyfriend and


    needed rescue again. Do you know how angry I was when I received that rescue call in the middle of


    the night? My perfectly fine son, getting injured for you once was bad enough, but you actually allowed


    your ex-boyfriend to make him suffer a second time. Seeing him lying helpless in the hospital bed, it


    broke my heart.”


    In Kate’s eyes, Eva was a jinx who caused harm. However, at that time, she had no right to say


    anything to Eva and could only let Paul do as he pleased. But now that the matter of marriage was


    brought up and it reached her, she had to intervene. At the very least, she wanted to make these things


    clear.

    “Anthony, at least, loved Edith wholeheartedly and was willing to give everything for her. But what about


    you? You don’t love my son, and you don’t cherish him. How can I, as his mother, feel at ease letting


    him marry you?”


    Eva felt guilty about Paul being provoked to the point of needing rescue. She deeply regretted it and


    lowered her head. “I’m sorry. I misjudged people and caused trouble for him, making him. suffer and


    get hurt…”


    In this matter, Eva didn’t try to defend herself. It was only natural for a mother to be heartbroken for her


    son in such a situation.


    She also agreed with Kate’s words. She hadn’t really cherished Paul before and always thought of their


    rtionship as a casual fling that would eventually end. She forced herself not to care about him, but


    people you don’t care about are easy to neglect…


    Moreover, when Paul talked to her, he was indifferent and didn’t take her seriously. Even when they


    broke up, it was just a simple “okay,” quickly ending their rtionship that could be considered


    insignificant. Who could have known that after the breakup, he would be entangled and even


    insist on marrying her…
