Chapter 1254
Kirsten patted Eileen''s hand and said consolingly, "Rest assured, that won’t happen. No matter how
heartless he is, he has no right and is in no position to forbid you from visiting Brad, because you''re
Brad''s mother.”
Eileen lifted her head and repeated," Kirsten, I know him too well."
Words eluded Kirsten.
After quite a while, she let out a long sigh." Eileen, allowing yourself to fall in love with Luke was the
biggest mistake of your life."
Eileen smiled self-deprecatingly, "Tell me about it.” "Actually, your life would’ve been pretty good if it
were another man that you married," Kirsten remarked. "You would''ve had an enjoyable romantic
rtionship in which a man doted on you and cherished you."
Eileenpsed into silence.
In fact, Kirsten was right.
She had begun to have a sneaking affection for Luke at the start of her puberty, and she had been
unable to develop feelings for any other man ever since.
And afterwards, by a strange quirk of fate, she had married Luke.
Everybody of her acquaintance had believed that her decision was wrong, but she had felt
rapturous.
At that time, her intentions had been simple and artless. It didn''t matter whether
Luke had feelings for her or not. All she wanted was for the two of them to live in the same house as
a family.
But how her marriage had ended up was like a hard p across her face.
"What a shame. You''ve never even dated anybody properly, and you lost everything: your love, your
child, and almost your life..."
Kirsten felt more hard done by with her every word, and she began to weep again.
After crying for a few moments, she became exasperated and cursed loudly.
"I hope Luke will have a car ident and die a violent death."
On hearing that, Eileen lifted her eyes."
That''s enough, Kirsten."
"Eileen, don''t tell me you still care about that bastard!" Kirsten said through gritted teeth.
She had a fierce look on her face. Eileen felt that Kirsten would definitely kill her if she answered in
the affirmative.
"Maybe you should wish Luke some other misfortune. He must not die. If he dies, Brad would be an
orphan."
She couldn''t let Brad be a parentless boy.
"Bah! What nonsense is that? I''m sure you’ll make a full recovery and have longevity!" Kirsten said.
"Well, I hope he’ll develop male impotence and never have another child!"
Eileen smiled, "That''s exactly what I want.”
Though knowing it was selfish, she really hoped that Luke would develop infertility.
That was the only way to ensure that Luke would be nice to Brad forever.
It wasmon knowledge that a stepmother could never be impartial.
If Luke remarried, would his new wife be good to Brad?
That was very unlikely.
Besides, the Bennington family was wealthy, and Luke would surely get another son to inherit the
family fortune.
Luke didn''t like Brad and hardly had any fatherly love for him. If he had another child, he would only
distance himself from Brad further.
The very thought of that gave Eileen a pang of intense heartache.
Before long, Kirsten left to attend to something.
Eileen was the only one left in the ward.
It was 10 p.m. already, but she was not sleepy at all.
For the first time ever, Brad was not by her side.
She then recalled Luke''s attitude towards Brad, which made it even more difficult for her to get to
sleep. Therefore, she sat up and dialed Luke’s number.
At first an automated voice told her the line was busy, that she might try againter.
She dialed the number five times in a row and the phone was still busy.
Clearly Luke didn''t want to answer her calls.
Eileen didn’t give up and kept calling him.
"Sorry, the number you''re trying to reach is unavable."
This time Luke blocked her.
Eileen chuckled and, hugging her knees, looked out of the window.

The night sky was moonless, starless and pitch-ck.
Suddenly, a meteor rent the canopy of darkness.
The look in Eileen''s eyes flickered and with that an idea urred to her.
