Chapter 155


    "I didn''t do anything wrong. Everything I have done is for his happiness!"


    udine Tucker shouted uncontrobly.


    Kurtson Jules sneered and said, "You should know best whether you''re doing it for your son''s


    happiness or for your own resentment. You said that it''s for your son''s happiness, but what


    happened now? You''re the one who forced him down a road of unhappiness."


    "Kurtson!"


    udine''s face turned pale. "We haven''t seen each other for more than ten years. Must you quarrel


    with me as soon as we meet?"


    "I wasn''t arguing with you. I was simply telling the truth. udine, you should not havee back


    here. The moment you left, you lost the right to interfere in Scott''s happiness."


    Kurtson got up and left resolutely. udine''s hand, which was holding the coffee cup, couldn''t stop


    trembling. However, not a single tear was shed.


    A kind person would not be cruel and cold-hearted within a day. A woman who would shed


    tears easily would not be so ruthless to abandon her husband and son.


    Although she did not reach an agreement with Kurtson, udine did not give up. When she knew


    that Kurtson was not at home, she went to the apartment where she left 20 years ago.


    She took a bunch of keys from her bag. She did not have much hope at first. However, she didn''t


    expect the rusty key would open the apartment door so easily.


    She was stunned for a moment. She was surprised that Kurtson did not even change the door lock


    after so many years. She could still easily enter the house with that old key.


    The decorations in the house was almost the same as it was twenty years ago. She went up to the


    first floor and entered the bedroom that was once theirs. She could easily locate the ce where


    the birth certificates were kept in the room.


    The furniture were still the same, and even the location where things were kept were not changed.


    udine held Scott''s birth certificate in her hand and thought for a moment. Then, she got up and


    left in a hurry.


    They would not be able to marry without the birth certificate.


    The wedding was imminent, so this was the only way she could think of to stop her son from


    marrying Lily Adams.


    udine thought that she had seeded in her n. However, she didn''t know that Scott Jules


    was already way ahead of her.


    When Scott led Lily to udine''s apartment and ced their marriage certificates in front of her, her


    eyes darkened and she fainted.


    After a long time, she woke up and found herselfying on the bed in her bedroom. Her son was


    sitting beside her bed. She suddenly shouted hysterically, "Scott!"


    Scott stood up and asked knowingly, "What''s wrong?"


    "You... you... got a marriage certificate with that annoying woman without my permission. Are you


    trying to drive me to an early grave?"


    Scott shook his head and said innocently, "I didn''t expect you to care so much about me. Since you


    do, then why did you abandon me in the first ce? I''ve always wanted to ask you that."


    udine burst into tears. "Scott, I was depressed at that time. I couldn''t stay in this city. If I did, I


    would''ve died from all the pressure I was facing."


    "Oh, you left me alone because you were in a bad mood, and came back to interfere with my life


    because you''re now in a good mood? What do you think I am? A toy? You have to face the truth.


    I''m all grown up now. I''ve grown past the age when you could interfere with my life whenever you


    want."


    After saying that, Scott left his mother''s bedroom and said to Lily, who was standing outside the


    door, "Let''s go."


    "Is she alright?"


    "It''s okay. She''s already shouting at me. What else could she do?"


    udine chased after him and said angrily, "The marriage certificate must be fake. Your birth


    certificate is with me. How did you get your marriage certificate?"


    Scott smiled angrily and patted his mother''s shoulder. "Mom, I told you that I am your son and I


    know how you do things better than anyone else. Did you think that I will be stupid enough to let you


    take my birth certificate away before I got married? I had registered my marriage a long time ago.


    But when I heard from Dad this morning that you had taken my birth certificate away, I decided to


    come here and show you my marriage certificate."


    udine rubbed her forehead. She felt dizzy and almost passed out again. Lily stretched out her


    hand to hold her, but udine pushed her away in disgust. "Get out!"


    "Alright, we''d better leave now. I wouldn''t want you to pass out again because of us."


    Scott took Lily''s hand and left his mother''s apartment. When he closed the door, he could still hear


    his mother''s angry roar. Lily was scared, but Scott was unperturbed.


    The two of them walked side by side to their parked car. Lily''s hands were in her pockets, her head


    lowered down the entire time. Scott nced at her casually and asked yfully, "Have you found


    your money yet?"


    Lily immediately came back to her senses and asked in surprise, "What money?"


    "You''ve been looking on the ground the whole time. I thought there''s lots of money on the ground."


    She turned her head awkwardly and smiled grumpily. "I was just thinking about something."


    "What is it?"


    She stopped, hesitated for a moment, and asked with uncertainty, "Did you choose me as your wife


    because your mother hates me?"


    "What do you mean?"


    "Did you decide to marry me all of sudden to exact revenge on your mother? You decided to marry


    a wife whom she doesn''t approve of. Isn''t this the best revenge you could get?"


    "You..." Scott pressed his finger onto Lily''s forehead. "You have quite a wild imagination, don''t you?"


    She rubbed the slightly-red spot on her forehead and said sulkily, "Anyway, you must have chosen


    me because I am of some value to you. Otherwise, would such blessings befall me?"


    Scott watched her back as she turned around and walked forward angrily. For the first time, he


    thought this girl to be quite interesting.


    Yasmine Taylor was very upset when she received the wedding invitation. It was not because she


    had lost an admirer, but because he was marrying Lily. She was very afraid that Lily would not have


    a happy life.


    "What is this?"


    Sebastian Simons saw her holding the invitation card absent- mindedly, so he took it. A confused


    look appeared on his face.


    "Scott and Lily are getting married?" He was very surprised. "What''s going on?"


    "I don''t know. They decided it themselves. Will youe with me tomorrow?"


    Sebastian nodded his head in a daze. "Oh, okay."


    It was sunny and warm on the next day. Sebastian and Yasmine had just arrived at the Emperor


    Hotel. Scott and Lily was going to hold their wedding banquet there.


    Yasmine was quite familiar with this ce. After all, she and Sebastian had gotten married there


    too.


    The wedding banquet had yet to begin and Lily was sitting in the hotel suite. She was very nervous.


    She was going to be Scott''s bride in just another hour. It all felt like a dream. Lily never thought that


    she would get married to the person she had been secretly in love with, let alone in such short


    notice. It felt unreal.


    Yasmine arrived at Lily''s room. When she saw her good friend dressed in the white wedding gown,


    Yasmine hadplicated feelings. She walked towards Lily with a smile and asked softly, "How do


    you feel? Does it feel like a dream that is about toe true?"

    Lily smiled bitterly and said, "What kind of dream is this? It seems to be a reallyme dream."


    "Evenme dreams are still dreams. It''s great that it came through. You must be happy today."


    "Yes."


    Lily nodded, feeling dejected.


    "You''re getting married secretly. Aren''t you afraid that your parents won''t let you go if they find out?"


    "If I tell them now, I won''t be able to get married."


    "Why?"


    "I promised them that I won''t stay in the country and that I would return home after my 25th


    birthday." "Are you only going to tell them after everything is set in stone?"


    Lily''s face turned slightly red. "Don''t talk nonsense. That''s impossible."


    "How could it not be possible? Since you have decided to get married, it doesn''t matter if you love


    each other or not. It''s only a matter of time."


    Lily raised her head slowly and a trace of sadness shed across her eyes. "Yasmine, the truth is


    that Scott decided to marry me because of you."


    Yasmine''s heart skipped a beat. "Because of me? Why?"


    "He doesn''t want his mother to cause you any more trouble. His mother is quite an intense person.


    Because she knew that he liked you, she tried her best to help him get you. As long as he is single,


    his mother will not give up. Sooner orter, her interference will cause you unbearable


    consequences."


    Although Yasmine knew from the beginning that the reason for Scott''s sudden marriage might be


    because of her, she was still a little shocked to hear it from Lily.


    "Don''t think too much about it. It doesn''t matter who he used to love in the past. What matters most


    now is that you will be living the rest of your life with him. Whether he falls in love with you or not, it


    depends on whether you worked hard enough and if you''ve tried your best."


    Yasmine suppressed her shock and encouraged her friend to fight for the love she wanted.


    There was still half an hour to the wedding. Yasmine left Lily''s room and walked along the long


    corridor, lost in her thoughts. She thought of that day when she misunderstood Scott and ran to his


    apartment to reprimand him. She could not help but feel very guilty. She was really mad at that time.


    She should have known that Scott was never a selfish and despicable person.


    Her footsteps suddenly stopped. She saw a handsome figure standing at the end of the corridor. He


    was staring at the vast sky in the distance with his back facing her.


    Yasmine thought for a few seconds before approaching the figure. She said softly, "Scott."


    Scott turned around slowly. When he saw her, his eyes shed with a trace of sadness that was


    simr to Lily''s. "You''re here."


    "Thank you."


    Yasmine thanked him from the bottom of her heart. Scott''s body stiffened. "You''re wee."


    The atmosphere was unspeakably solemn, and both of them fell into silence. After a long time,


    Yasmine finally broke the silence. "Although I know that I shouldn''t say such things, I still want to


    say this. Principal Jules, please treat Lily well. I sincerely wish you both a happy and long marriage."


    After that, Yasmine turned around. Just as she was about to head downstairs to the wedding


    banquet hall, she heard Scott''s voice from behind her.


    "There is nothing that should or should not be said. There are only two reasons to live. One is to


    achieve happiness, and the other is to wish for another person''s happiness."
