Chapter 236


    In the end, she could only bow her head, whispering, “Sorry… no matter if you think I’m a low life or


    ungrateful, I just want a peaceful life! Now, being with Emmett, I feel very secure. Going to work in the


    morning,ing home at night, spending time with my kids, designing blueprints; this is the life I dream


    of! I don’t want to change.”


    “But have you ever thought about what would happen if Emmett found out the truth? You’ve been lying


    to him all these years. Would he hate you? And would he let me off the hook, the aplice?”


    “I won’t tell him! I n to keep this a secret for the rest of my life!” ra had considered that this would


    involve Elio. He was innocent! No matter how willful or fearless she was, she couldn’t let Elio be a


    thorn in the Melendez family’s side.


    “You’re so naive, thinking you can keep this secret forever! Is this possible? As the kids grow up or


    whatever may happen in the future, any one of these can expose you!”


    *…* ra kept her head down for a moment, then suddenly said, “Alright then! If I get caught, you’ll


    say I forced you to do it! me everything on me! I am, after all, the mother of two kids, and he


    probably won’t… kill me! At most, he’ll hate me and kick me out of the house.”


    “So, all in all, you won’t leave Emmett, right?”


    ra bit her lower lip, “Sorry, I…”


    “Alright! I get it,” Elio suddenly stood up and walked away.


    Just then, the waiter brought the coffee he had ordered. Elio left without even looking at it.


    ra watched him get into his car and only snapped out of it when he was out of sight.


    Suddenly, her phone rang. Looking down, she saw it was Leah calling.


    “ra, are you

    with my


    brother?”


    ra pursed her lips, “No, he just left.”


    “What’s wrong? From your tone, did you guys fight? My brother missed you so much, he even flew all


    the way back from overseas, and you guys start arguing as soon as you meet?”


    “We didn’t argue, it’s just… he’s a bit upset,” ra raised her hand to massage her temples, “Try to talk


    some sense into him for me. I’m not suitable for him! His family background is so good, it would be


    super easy for him to find a woman much better than me!”


    “But matters of the heart aren’t up to him,” Leah sighed, “You think I haven’t tried? I have, but it didn’t


    work! His heart is set on you, and that’s something I can’t change no matter what I say! Before he


    came to see you, we talked about it. I told him that you and Emmett are very much in love, and you


    wouldn’t divorce him to be with my brother, but he just wouldn’t believe it, and insisted oning here


    to get his heart broken.”


    “I let your brother down.”


    “Forget about it. My stubborn brother is such a headache!” Leah sighed, “Let’s do this, when I see him,


    I’ll talk to him again. Don’t worry about this, let me clear things up with him, and then I’ll call you!”


    “?? ? ;


    ra took a sip of her lemon water, her feelings quite mixed.


    “That’s all we can do for now! If he has any reckless ideas, stop him from doing anything stupid! I know


    Elio well, He’s very persistent and always likes to fight with himself!”
