He Filled My Life novel Chapter 3

"Thalia, it's windy outside. Hurry and wheel your sister... Ah, Adam, you're here as well." Mrs. Cloude noticed that Thalia and Agnes had not come into the house. She was worried that Agnes would catch a cold after being discharged from the hospital, so she couldn't help but come out to check on her.

But the moment she saw Adam Matthews, she rolled her eyes at Thalia and said, "Thalia, why didn't you tell me in advance that Adam is coming with you?"-

"Mom, I..."

Thalia was about to explain herself, but Agnes interrupted her.

"Mom, Brother Adam is here to see me. If you keep standing at the door and block his path, he is going to assume that he's not welcome!"

Mrs. Cloude snapped out of her reverie. She couldn't bother with the formality at this point, so she quickly ushered them into the house.

Thalia froze and watched Adam wheel Agnes into the house. The two of them were speaking to each other in low and gentle voices. She was suddenly at a loss for words.

She smiled sadly and said, "Mom, I'm feeling under the weather. I can't have dinner with you. I'm heading home."

Mrs. Cloude's facial expression darkened slightly. "Thalia, can you stop making a fuss?"

Thalia thought, 'Making a fuss?'

Was she making a fuss?

Her eyes suddenly reddened and became teary.

"Mom, Adam is my husband, not Agnes'!"

She was also her mother's biological daughter, yet her mother always favored Agnes and ignore her feelings.

Mrs. Cloude looked at her. She sighed and said, "Thalia, I know you are upset, but Agnes' has lost the ability to walk. Besides, she hasn't seen Adam for three years. Can you take pity on her?"

"Take pity on her? Mom, who will take pity on me then? Adam is my husband. Why should I let her steal him away?" Thalia bit her lip and retorted.

"Let her steal him away?" Mrs. Cloude's voice suddenly became sharp. "If it weren't for you, Agnes and Adam would be married by now!"

Thalia looked up at her own mother in disbelief. "Mom, what are you talking about? I have been with Adam for a long time. If you hadn't helped Agnes hide the truth, why would I have to..."

"All right, all right!"
