Chapter 380 The One He Cherished Had Always Been Her


    Tully City''s airport was notrge. After passing through security, Madam Young waved at us and


    said, "Alright, don''t bother seeing us off. Go back and attend to your business."


    Idris and I nodded with smiles.


    Emily looked over at me. There was a hint of a smile on her thin face, and she said calmly, "Yvette,


    thank you for taking care of me these past two days."


    I shook my head, still worried about her, and said, "The doctor has advised you to take good care of


    yourself during this time, Emily. Don''t think too much and just focus on recovering."


    She nodded, her gaze still gentle. "Yes, I will. After you finish your work,e back early. Madam


    Young and I are going back to the old manor to prepare for the uing festivities. Come back


    early, and we can celebrate the new year together."


    After saying that, she gave a slight smile to Idris as thanks. Ash did not want to go back, but with


    the adults leaving, she reluctantly followed along.


    The kid had no clue what had happened. She only knew that this trip was not as enjoyable as she


    had hoped. Now, she was being taken back home.


    As I watched them leave, I felt an indescribable heaviness in my heart. Not hearing anything about


    Liam, I bit my lip and asked Idris, "Liam didn''te?"


    Idris nodded, his brows furrowing deeply. "Emily didn''t want to see him, so he didn''t."


    I pursed my lips as we left the airport building.


    I managed to see Liam outside the building. However, in just two days, his face had turned pale, his


    cheeks were sunken, and he looked haggard. He also noticed using out.


    He jogged over and asked, "Did they board the ne?"


    Idris did not respond to him,pletely ignoring him.


    I did not want to talk to him either. After casting him a nce, I followed Idris into the car.


    In the car, Idris started the engine. Through the rearview mirror, I could see Liam looking at the


    airport building for a moment before getting into his own car.


    "I shouldn''t have called him back then," I said, feeling like I was responsible for Emily''s predicament.


    If I had sought help from someone else back then when Sweety got into that ident, and it was


    not Liam who saved her, perhaps today''s events would not have happened.


    Idris seemed to understand what I was referring to. With one hand on the steering wheel, he


    nced at me and spoke in a low, restrained voice, "The one at fault is the one who made the


    mistake. It has nothing to do with you. If I had been the one to save her back then, aren''t you afraid


    that you''d be the one feeling miserable today?"


    I pursed my lips and sighed softly, "If she had taken a liking to you and pursued you, at least it


    wouldn''t be like it is now."

    Idris furrowed his brows and asked, "Yvette, what do you mean by that?"


    Knowing he had misunderstood, I replied with a touch of annoyance, "I meant you wouldn''t be as


    clueless as Liam. I wasplimenting you. What are you thinking?"


    He smiled faintly and said, "I see."


    ncing at his slightly arrogant demeanor, my mood improved a bit. Indeed, if Sweety had fallen for


    Idris, at least she would not have needlessly harmed an innocent life. Moreover, Idris, though


    unpleasant, would not easily give others an opportunity to approach him. He might feel indebted to


    someone due to a favor, but he would not let others take advantage of him.


    Back at the hotel, the situation at the forest had be widely known throughout the country, and


    the area was sealed off. Idris had many matters to attend to, and since I could not assist him, I let


    him handle thepany''s affairs after we returned to the hotel.


    Idris had already left when Liam started following me. We did not have much to talk about, and I did


    not n to speak to him much. I was about to return to my room when he stopped me, saying,


    "Yvette."


    I turned to look at him and pursed my lips. "What is it, Liam?"


    He looked at me with a weary and helpless expression. "Do you have some time? Let''s talk."


    I instinctively furrowed my brows, not understanding why he wanted to talk to me. Seemingly aware


    of my thoughts, he continued, "Given the situation, I know I''ve caused a lot of harm. I can''t undo


    what''s done, and I know Emily doesn''t want to see me. But there are many things I hope she


    understands. None of the things that have happened is as she imagines."


    Realizing that he wanted to exin things to Emily through me, I pursed my lips and remained silent


    for a moment before saying, "Alright, let''s talk."


    Seeing that I was willing to listen, he gestured to the open-air cafe outside the hotel and said, "Shall


    we go there?"


    I nodded, and we headed to the cafe. After ordering two cups of coffee, we sat down.


    He got straight to the point, saying, "I met Emily when we were young, and we fell in love. I love her


    very much. I never thought of betraying her, not in the past, and not now. We have a child, and we


    have rtives around. All of this is what I cherish the most."
