Elizabeth and Lily talked for over an hour in the cafe's private room, talking about everything that had happened in the past regarding April. From Lily's mouth, she finally heard some things that were different.
In fact, the reason why April was so greedy for money in those years, was not because she really needed it for free, but was because she wanted to save her grandfather's life. Her grandfather had suffered from a very serious illness, and furthermore, it would happen again and again.
Suddenly, one day, April returned with a hundred thousand, she tricked Lily saying that she had asked someone else to borrow it, she could slowly repay them, and take them to help her grandfather out, but after that, all of the hundred thousand was taken to her grandfather to treat her sickness, but it was not enough, her grandfather's condition became more serious, so the two sisters could only think of other ways.
Back then, she was timid and afraid, and did not know how to earn great amount of money in such short time. Everything was supported by April, and she said that she did not even know what April had done. She just left early and returned late, and then she would take out the money and ask her to pay for the medical fees.
They invested 300,000 dollars to treat their grandpa's illness, but in the end, the illness still mercilessly took their grandpa away. The two sisters hugged each other and cried for the whole night.
After that, April said that she wanted to go on a long journey. She found a high-paying job in another city and sent over 10,000 dollars worth of living fees to her family every month.
Lily didn't know what she did specifically, but after a year, she came back with a baby girl that was only two months old. She said that it was born from her and a man, and that man didn't know, so she wanted to raise her on her own.
Lily was stunned. Looking at the infant that was still in its cradle, she didn't know what to do.
April was peacefully taking care of the child at home. Unfortunately, another thing happened, someone reported her and said that she was a drug addict and had hidden drugs, thus, the policemen ran over to the house to take her away, and she was imprisoned. Lily was choked with sobs when she said till this point.
She never thought that the true story would actually be like this. She had always thought that April was just a greedy woman, but it turned out that she was greedy because she wanted to treat her grandfather's illness.
"Elizabeth, don't hate her anymore. In all these years, I have never hated her either." Lily said while wiping her tears.
Elizabeth also cried for a long time. She raised her hand and wiped her tears away: "I don't hate her, I don't hate her anymore.
"Well, I don't know. She said the police found drugs in her old place and took her away. She kept saying she was innocent, but she didn't have any evidence." Lily shook her head, everything that had happened that year wastoo quickly, too suddenly, no one was mentally prepared for it.
"Alright, I understand." Elizabeth couldn't help but clench his fists tightly. April suspected that that heartless man had used such a vicious method to warn her, in order to prevent her from revealing the truth.
She had always thought that man was only irresponsible, but she didn't expect that for her interests and reputation, he would even persecute a woman who was her surrogate pregnancy. He was simply too despicable.
"Elizabeth, aren't you in a hurry? " Lily could not help but ask worriedly.
Elizabeth nodded her head: "Yes, it's more or less there. Little Aunt, go back first, we'll meet again next time!"
"Alright, knowing that you're fine, I am relieved. If you have anything, feel free to contact me!" Lily stood up and accepted the gift in the end, then turned and left.
Not long after Lily left, Elizabeth came out as well.
Patty who was hiding in the seating area, had her eyes light up the moment she saw Elizabeth.
