    Chapter 387 Innocence


    They all turned around simultaneously and spotted Cora elegantly walking toward them in an evening


    gown, holding a wine ss.


    She was naturally beautiful, and she had put in extra effort to look stunning that day, so she was the


    center of everyone''s attention.


    In an instant, Eason found himself stunned by her beauty once again, momentarily forgetting the lively


    atmosphere around him and his past with Cora.


    He felt like he was transported back to the time when he and Cora were deeply in love, and she was


    It wasn''t until she walked up to Byron and gracefully linked arms with him...


    At that moment, Eason snapped back to reality from his beautiful reverie, and he also felt Mia''s chubby


    hand squeezing his waist in dissatisfaction.


    Right away, he was reminded of the harsh reality he was in.


    "Mrs. Hansen, you look mesmerizing today."


    Unaware of his nephew''s internal strife, Byron offered Cora a sincerepliment.


    Cora replied courteously. "Mr. Hansen, you look great too."


    Their mutualpliment and affectionate demeanor toward each other only fueled Eason and Flora''s


    frustration.


    But they didn''t expect that after disying their affection, Byron suddenly turned back and reminded


    Eason.


    "Your aunt is here. You should say hello to her."


    Cora smiled demurely, seemingly anticipating Eason to address her as his aunt.


    Eason''s eyes were red at the rim, either because of jealousy toward Cora and Byron or feeling hurt that


    Cora would humiliate him despite their shared past.


    Lydia quickly tried to ease the tension upon noticing it.


    "Byron, Eason will need some time to get used to the change in your rtionship. Please pardon his


    tardy response."


    As always, she was defending her son.


    To her surprise, Byron wasn''t letting Eason off so easily, even though she had stood up for Eason.


    "A child? He is almost thirty and about to be a father, and you still see him as a child?"


    Byron''s tone was t, but his words wereced with mockery aimed at both Lydia and Eason.


    That was the most ruthless anyone had talked back at Eason, the mama''s boy, and Lydia, his mother.


    Mia felt satisfied hearing it.


    If it weren''t for her strained rtionship with Byron and Cora, she might have apuded.


    Meanwhile, Lydia was still attempting to defend her son. "Eason will always be my son no matter how


    old he is. I have gotten used to calling him that way."


    "Fine, he is your child, and you can call him whatever you want. Just don''t poke your nose in other


    people''s affairs."


    Byron''s words confused Lydia momentarily, and she wondered, "Did I meddle in other people''s affairs?"


    Then, she noticed Byron ncing at Eason, giving him a clear warning.


    "When Cora first got together with me, she was still a virgin. I won''t let you off the hook easily if you


    continue allowing your mother to badmouth her."


    After saying that, he took Cora to meet the other family elders and important business partners.


    Only after they had left did Eason and Lydia regain theirposure, their backs damp with sweat.


    "It seems Uncle Byron overheard what you said about Cora just now."


    Eason, forever a mama''s boy, casually shifted the me onto others, even if it was his own mother.


    "Who knew his hearing was so sharp."


    In her chagrin, Lydia questioned Eason. "Have you never gotten intimate with Cora when you were


    together with her?"


    Sure enough, she still couldn''t stand Cora''s arrogance.


    She figured it would be great if she could find evidence of Eason and Cora being intimate. She could


    show it to Byron so that he would divorce Cora out of spite.


    Unfortunately, Eason looked gloomy. "No..."


    "Really? Why not?"


    Lydia was quite surprised. Eason had slept with Mia despite her shabby appearance, so it would be


    odd that he hadn''t slept with Cora, who was far more attractive.


    "Cora wouldn''t allow it."


    Eason felt dejected whenever he thought about it.


    If Cora had allowed him to be intimate with her, Mia wouldn''t even have entered into the equation.


    He wouldn''t have to marry such an unsightly woman.


    "You coward! Why didn''t you take it further when you were together? Otherwise, we might have turned


    the tables by now!"


    Mia began to wonder if her judgment was clouded back then as she listened to the shocking


    conversation between the mother and son.


    Otherwise, nothing could exin why she had gone to such lengths to snatch trash like Eason from
