Chapter 441 Something Must’ve Happened Back Then

“I was too in love with him. I wanted to be with him even though I knew his heart belonged to Lara. But, not long after we got married, Lara came back. She said that the reason she left was that her face was burned by the fire. She was worried that the others would find her disgusting, so she went abroad to treat her face. After listening to her explanation, Edward was heartbroken. He got back together with Lara without even caring about what I would think.” Gianna and Silas looked at each other. They didn’t expect Ellen’s marriage to have transpired like that. “He’s fond of Lara; that’s why he believed her.”

“That’s true. But, he’s my husband after all. Of course, I didn’t want him to ignore me and act like that. I quarreled with him but it was useless. It hadn’t even been two months since Lara’s return and he already wanted to divorce me. I naturally disagreed. It wasn’t easy for me to finally get married to him.

Besides, the Nolans and the Mccarthys wouldn’t agree with it. Edward couldn’t do as he pleased.”

Gianna frowned in response. “Then, why did Lara go overseas? It couldn’t be because of the wound right?” asked Gianna. Ellen then answered, “Of course, it wasn’t. She’s someone who only does things with purpose. There was no way she could be selfless enough to grant me my wish. I think there might be something that was distracting her, or maybe she failed at something. And that was why she came back for Edward!”

Gianna nodded at what Ellen said. Although she didn’t know Ellen very well, instinctually, she felt that there must have been another reason Lara

left.

Silas went on to ask, “If he likes Lara and doesn’t have feelings for you, there was also no reason for him to be so ruthless. Is there anything else that I don’t know?” “When I divorced your Dad, he said something and I still can’t understand what that was supposed to mean even until today. He said that since we were once married, he’ll let bygones be bygones. He told me he won’t hold me responsible for anything, but he has only been in love with Lara from the very beginning. All I felt was irony back then.

He messed up my reputation, made me homeless, and then he had the audacity to say that he wouldn’t look into the matter anymore on account that we were once married! I thought he was talking about me giving birth to Brian behind his back, but he knew about that all along. There was no reason for him to mention that during the divorce.”

Silas exchanged another glance with the others. “Then, he must have been talking about something else.” Gianna nodded. “It seems like you will have to find out what happened back then.” Silas then hummed in agreement. “Mommy, haven’t you been looking for the wrong person?” asked South coolly.

Looking toward the little boy, Gianna laughed helplessly. “Yeah. I should’ve asked you. Can you help me then?” Ellen was surprised as she looked at South. What are they talking about? Silas tugged South into his embrace with a proud expression. “Mom, your grandson is much better than me. If there’s something you want to find out, it would be better if you were to give him the task.” “Really? Is my lil’ grandson so marvelous?” Ellen asked in bewilderment. South grinned, showing his teeth. “It’s nothing!” “It’s nothing? My company lost more than forty million because of you! How are we going to get even with that?” snorted Brian. South looked at him provocatively. “It you think you’ve lost too little, I can help you with it.” Brian was so annoyed that he gritted his teeth. “Help me? You better watch out.”

As he was saying this, he reached out, trying to grab South, South broke away from Silas’s embrace and plunged into Ellen’s arms. “Grandma, your son is bullying me!”
