Chapter 144


    His gaze darkened after saying that.


    He wanted to start anew with Zoe, not just as a form ofpensation, but because he wanted to be with her. As he had mentioned, they also had


    enjoyable moments, and this kind of happiness was something he hadn''t experienced with anyone else


    However, Zoe wasn''t interested in continuing the conversation. Shezily brushed him aside, saying, “Aren''t you supposed to meet Lilith? Why


    haven''t you gone downstairs yet?"


    Masen sensed indifference in her tone.


    This feeling wasn''t pleasant.


    Zoe didn''t care about him anymore, not even a bit when Lilith came over. She was emotionless, as if she were saying he didn''t deserve any of her


    attention.


    Lilith’s condition delicate. She pressured the nurse to bring her here, even keeping it a secret from her mother. She waited for a long time in the small


    living room, and she could even hear faint movements upstairs.


    There was only Mason and Zoe on the second floor, and those sounds could onlye from them.


    Lilith’s face turned pale.


    She couldn''t help but wonder if Mason was engaging in intimate activity with his wife at this time.


    Just as she was thinking about it, the hall door was pushed open, and Mason walked in. Lilith noticed with sharp eyes that there was a smudge of


    lipstick on the cor of Mason’s snowy white shirt.


    Her face became even paler, and she could barely sit still.


    She looked at Mason, emitting a mournful plea, "Mr. Mason, I beg you. I don''t want to go abroad. I want to stay in Brookesville. If Mrs. Zoe can''t


    tolerate me, I can apologize and exin things to her. I never had the intention of recing her.”


    In Lilith''s perception, Mason needed her. The days she spent apanying him, sometimes finding him tired on the sofa and covering him with a


    nket, smoothing out the wrinkles on his face. During these times, she felt like Mason''s wife. Their rtionship was filled with a sense of tragedy.


    Zoe only knew how to enjoy life.


    Zoe only wore expensive clothes


    and only. adorned herself to look <~


    beautiful. She only spent Mason’ s


    money. She didn''t truly lovehim.


    Only she, Lilith, could provide warmth to Mason.


    However, Mason had already made up his mind.


    ‘Lilith, I did-want to repay you back .


    then, but it had nothing to do with


    emotions. I never had any feelings


    for you. Not back then, notever."


    He made it clear. "It''s already been arranged. When your condition stabilizes a bit, you will go abroad.”


    That was probably next month.


    Lilith’s eyes were filled with tears.


    At that moment, her dream shattered.


    Mason''s emotionless statement destroyed all her fantasies.


    It was as if she had returned to that summer when she shamefully pretended to be Zoe and received Mason''s gratitude.


    She watched Mason leave and saw his eager expression. She knew his heart was with Zoe.


    "Mr. Mason Lilith, with teary eyes,~


    smiled faintly, "Before I leave, I want


    to take some photos. I might.. never


    come back. It''s just for the oO


    memories.”

    Masen softened a bit.


    After considering it for a few seconds, he agreed, "I''ll have Ava arrange it for you."Content ? N?velDrama.Org.
