I Only Want You novel Chapter 849

Elizabeth stared at Zena for a while, and then nodded slightly, "Okay."

At first, Zena was stunned, and then she widened her eyes with joy, "Really? Well... thank you so much."

Elizabeth looked at Zena, who was sitting opposite her. At this time, Zena was like a child. She was excited and happy, and it seemed that she couldn't believe what she had heard, but Elizabeth could see that she was overjoyed.

Zena let out a long sigh of relief. She had stopped crying, but tears came down her cheeks again at this time, "Thank you! Thank you so much." She wiped her tears while saying to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth remained silent with complicated feelings in heart. After a moment, she said, "You're welcome. My purpose is not to help you."

"I know." Zena nodded repeatedly, "I know, but I still have to thank you."

"Well, that's it. It's time for me to go back." Elizabeth thought for a while, "In the future, don't let your mother come to me again. I came here today for your mother's sake, but I won't come again. Moreover, you are actually very happy. You did something wrong, but your parents did not abandon you because of these things."

Elizabeth thought for a moment and decided to say, "You know what? Your mother... works as a cleaner in James's neighbourhood in order to fulfill your little wish. She just wanted to see me and then let me come to see you."

Zena opened her eyes wide. She was so shocked that she even opened her mouth wide.

Hearing Elizabeth's words, she seemed to be imagining that her mother, who was used to living a rich life, actually worked as a cleaner for her. Her eyelashes trembled and her eyes blurred with tears again.

She knew that it was definitely not easy for her mother to go to Elizabeth and ask her to come here, but she didn't expect that her mother would do it in this way.

Elizabeth looked at her and didn't say anything more. Then she was about to put the microphone on the shelf.

Seeing this, Zena immediately came to sense from shock and exclaimed, "Wait a minute!" She waved at Elizabeth because she was afraid that she wouldn't hear her.

Elizabeth paused, and found that Zena indicated that she should continue to listen.

She thought for a moment and picked up the microphone again.

"I... forgot to say that I didn't only want to apologize to Xavier, and..." Zena swallowed, "You know that I don't have many things left now. So, even if I want to compensate him, it's not realistic. But..."

Zena paused. She wanted to say that Xavier liked Elizabeth very much, but she bit back her words after thinking for a while.

"I have his first painting which he drew many years ago. Over the years, I know that he cares about this painting very much. Well... I hid it. Don't look at me like that. I am entirely without malice." Zena smiled and continued, "That painting is about a house with sunshine, grass and gardens. It's very beautiful. I know that he lay his hope on the painting. At that time... I thought that he would be with me in the future. He would better be with me rather than long for such a life in the face of a painting. I... could give him a home, cook for him and even give birth to a child for him."

"Besides... he was in a bad state before, and later he went abroad. He relied on those paintings to survive. If he didn't have those paintings, he might not be able to have anything to rely on."

"But at that time, he... seemed to dislike everything, and he was very irritated. Those paintings... were all of cold colours. As soon as he drew a painting, he threw it away or destroyed it directly."

"Some of them were not destroyed by him, and I didn't want to lose them, so I rented a house to keep those paintings. He was born to paint, and those paintings were his efforts. How could I bear to throw them away?"

"Alas!" Zena sighed and then told Elizabeth the address of the house. She emphasized again and again, "Can you keep it in mind? Don't forget it. The key is in the jewelry box in the bottom drawer of the dressing table in my bedroom."

Elizabeth nodded.
