Billionaire ’s Unforgettable First Love novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34 You Used to Like Him Before

"Gwen, you've gone too far." There was a hint of anger in Martin's tone.

"Aren't you the one who has gone too far instead?" His daughter drove over her with the car on purpose last night. If Edison hadn't shown up, she would probably be lying in the hospital now, or dead.

"You're already an adult now, why are you not sensible at all?" Martin complained angrily, regretting coming here.

Hearing the sound of him stomping downstairs, Gwenyth loosened her grip on the broom. She fell down on the sofa beside her, panting heavily, and beat her chest several times to calm herself down.

Since Martin knew that they were living here, he would probably come over again the second time. It's better for them to move.

After regaining her cool, she stood up, put the broom back in the kitchen, and took out the ingredients to cook from the fridge, starting to prepare for dinner. Soon night fell and she had finished cooking dinner.

She went into the room to pack her things. Since the summer clothes were thin, they didn't take up much space. She stuffed them into her backpack and didn't pack too much- just two sets of clothes and a pair of canvas shoes.

After finishing her chores, she put her bag on the sofa, sitting on it while waiting for Ursula and Susie's return.

When it was almost eight o'clock, she heard familiar footsteps from the stairs outside. Not long after, the clinking sound of the key resounded outside the door. She got up and opened the door.

Noticing Gwenyth was at home with a beautiful dress on, Ursula's eyes sparkled. "Is this dress... from your boyfriend?"

She hummed in affirmation and said, "Mom, dinner's ready."

"Thank you."

"Mom, I was almost hit by a car when I came back last night. Edison broke his hand in order to save me. I was taking care of him last night. He wanted me to stay with him for the time being. Since his hand was in a plaster cast, he can't do anything. And, he lives alone so no one is there to take care of him."

She didn't return home last night, yet guessing who she was with, Ursula didn't ask her.

"Mom, his plaster cast will be removed in about a month, and I'll be back by then."

Patting Gwenyth on her shoulder gently, Ursula said, "Just stay there if you want to. You're already a grown-up now, I believe you're mature enough to make your own decision. There's no need to ask my permission for everything."

Gwenyth was a little surprised as she thought Ursula would disagree.

"Gwen, you've sacrificed a lot for us. Thank you, my daughter. If Edison is serious about your relationship, then you should seize this chance tightly and don't let him go. But, if he's just playing around with you, then you must leave him as soon as possible."

"Got it."

"You used to like him before, didn't you?"

Gwenyth became embarrassed while listening to her words. "Nah, not at all."

"You're my daughter, how could I don't understand you?"

"Mom, stop making fun of me."

Lowering her head, Gwenyth picked up the backpack on the sofa, took out half the amount of the salary she received from the hotel, and give it to Ursula. "Mom, here you go."

"What about you? Do you still have money left to spend?"

"I still have some on me."

"Really?"

"Yes, don't worry about me."

"You have to keep some money on you, don't spend Edison's money on everything, that's not a good choice."

"Got it. By the way, the food is in the pot, remember to eat it." Before Gwenyth could continue saying anything to Ursula, the ponderous footsteps resounded from the stairs.

Hearing the stomping sound of the footsteps as if there were many people climbing toward the stairs, Gwenyth has an ominous feeling in her heart.

Don't tell me that the dunners' coming, she thought. Deep inside, she hoped that it wouldn't be those people, but the more she was afraid of something, the more it would come true.

The anti-theft door was soon knocked loudly. Susie shrank her shoulders and hid in Gwenyth's arms immediately. Without hesitation, Gwenyth led Susie into the bedroom and reminded her, "C'mon Susie, quickly hide up."
