A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1291

"I didn’t, but Mom bought apple pies and prepared a lot of delicious food for you.

"Yet you never came back on your birthday. Most were eaten by me in the end. I was full, so Mom gave the remains to Wonda in the neighborhood."

"Who’s Wonda?"

He turned the wheel to the left.

"Wonda is a white stray dog. It's beautiful and understanding. Mom and I like it very much. It gave birth to six puppies. Two were white and four black. Mom sent them to others," he burbled enthusiastically.

Luke's face darkened.

Then his mind wandered.

Apple pie wasn't his favorite food but Zora's.

In the early years after Zora's death, he didn’t celebrate his birthday. He just bought some apple pies.

"Every time you called Mom, she went to the supermarket and bought many ingredients, but in the end, you left without eating the tasty dishes she cooked. I like prawns best, yet Mom only cooked them when you came back." Brad was dissatisfied.

Luke frowned, his Adam's apple moving.

"Mom said that since you married her, you've been unhappy, and so has she."

She married him just because she didn't want him to suffer so much.

She hoped he could live happily, but he didn't.

Luke somehow thought of what Eileen said in front of Merlin's tombstone.

His eyes slightly narrowed, deep and troubled.

"If... I mean if your mother remarried, what would you do?"

Luke didn't know why he asked this question. It was probably because he saw the man in the car who was chatting happily with her.
