Chapter 120


    Olivia shook her head, "I''m not sure."


    She originally wanted to say that her mother spected that her Uncle Curtis knew, but she felt that


    the truth was too cruel, so she didn''t say it.


    "Adeline, this is your privacy. I respect you. Whether you want to tell Uncle Curtis or not, it''s up to


    you. And... even if you want to tell him, it should be you who says it."


    Adeline forced a relieved smile, "Olivia, you''ve grown up and learned to consider others. Thank


    you."


    Back at the apartment, Adeline locked herself in her room and sat on the windowsill, lost in thought.


    She didn''t know how long she had been sitting there when Curtis sent her a WhatsApp message,


    "Mrs. Riley, I won''t being home for dinner tonight. I have an important business partnering


    over to discuss a project."


    Adeline replied with a simple Okay.


    Coincidentally, she was feeling low and in a bad mood, and she really didn''t want to face Curtis right


    now.


    With Curtis'' sensitive nature, if he saw her current state, he would definitely sense something and


    then ask her what was wrong.


    But for now, she didn''t want to confess to Curtis.


    Adeline sat on the windowsill, tightly hugging her knees.


    For the first time, she wanted to be a little selfish, and temporarily, she didn''t want to tell Curtis this


    secret for the time being.


    On the way back, she actually thought about a lot of things.


    She was afraid that Curtis would divorce her if he found it out. And she was afraid of losing him.


    She had never been cared for and cherished like this before, and when she was about to lose it,


    she realized that she cared more about Curtis than she had imagined, and she was more attached


    to the warmth he gave her.


    Just like a person ustomed to walking in the dark suddenly having a guiding light, she could no


    longer tolerate sneaking around in the darkness!


    Ding!


    Her phone beeped with another WhatsApp message.


    Curtis, "Mrs. Riley, don''t you tell me toe back early? Other wives tell their husbands not to drink


    and toe back early. Aren''t you worried about me? Aren''t you afraid that I''ll be seduced by other


    women?"


    Adeline suppressed her emotions from the afternoon, and when she saw this message, she couldn''t


    help but smile.


    Even through the screen, she could feel Curtis''s yfulness.


    She curved her lips and replied, "Drink less ande back early. I''ll be waiting for you at home."


    Curtis replied, "Yes, my wife!"


    Just as she put down her phone, it beeped again.


    It was a text message from an unknown number.


    "Adeline, it''s me, Logan. I apologize for what happened this afternoon. Olivia told me everything. It


    was your mother who secretly gave my mother the medical report. You had no idea about it.


    Adeline, please believe me. I didn''t despise you because of this. I love you and won''t change


    because of anything. I admit that I didn''t handle the situation well this afternoon.


    I was also anxious to solve the problem and quickly find a solution for your health so that I can


    convince my mother. I admit that I was too hasty and didn''t consider your feelings. I''m sorry."


    Adeline feltplicated when she saw the message.


    Finally, she replied, "This matter has nothing to do with you anymore."


    After sending the message, Adeline repeatedly fiddled with her WhatsApp on her phone.


    She thought, wouldn''t it be great if Curtis didn''t mind this matter?


    As she thought about it, tears couldn''t help but flow down her cheeks.


    She didn''t understand why she was so unlucky.


    Nothing had ever gone smoothly for her from childhood to adulthood.


    Just when she finally met Curtis, her own body might not be able to conceive.


    She loved children so much, why did fate have to be so cruel and prevent her from having her own


    child, making her family iplete?


    She didn''t know how long she cried, but when she was tired of crying, Adeline finally went to bed.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    In a daze, she felt the bed next to her sink down, and an arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her


    into an embrace.


    Adeline''s body trembled, and the person behind her held her even tighter, as a familiar and warm


    voice reached her ears.


    "It''s me."


    Adeline''s body trembled again, and she turned around in Curtis'' arms, cupping his face and kissing


    him.


    The sudden initiative caught Curtis off guard.


    As he responded, he asked, "Honey, why are you so passionate tonight?"
