My Second Husband novel Chapter 1193

Rachel didn't answer his question as she had no idea what she would do then either.

She turned around and sat down against the wall.

"I got a call from home this afternoon."

Eddison was startled for a moment as he asked, "Is it from Rosaville City?"

She nodded and said, "Mom said that Dad is ignoring her again."

He frowned and sat down beside her.

"She cried bitterly and kept asking me why Dad was unwilling to lead a peaceful life with her despite her efforts."

Eddison had no idea how to console her.

"Maybe they're just not meant to be together?"

"Then, why would they get married in the first place? Is it also because of the responsibility they had to bear? What about now? Do they no longer have to bear any responsibilities now?"

"I don't know either."

Rachel gave him a wry smile and said, "Forget it. It seems that I'm being unreasonable. I'm just disappointed. I imagined the world to be a beautiful place, but reality is cruel."

He suddenly understood, "I get it."

"You-"

"You're afraid that we'll repeat the mistakes made by your parents. That's why you're distancing yourself from me all of a sudden, right?"

What he said might be one of the reasons.

Rachel nodded, "I just don't want to end up like Mom in the future. If the results can be predicted now, why do we still have to start this relationship?"

Eddison pursed his lips, insisting, "No, you won't end up like her! I'll prove that we will have a different future."

"I hope so," said Rachel while smiling bitterly.

Meanwhile, Naomi was staying in her office in Greene City.

Naomi had said that she wouldn't go to the event with Sharon and Emma, but nonetheless, she was not in the mood to do anything in the company at all. All that ran through her mind the entire day was the design competition.

The secretary knocked on the door and came in from the outside.

"Miss George, there's a gift for you."

Naomi was curious, "A gift?"

The secretary took out a bouquet of flowers from behind her as if she was performing a magic trick, replying, "Yes!"

"A man sent it here."

They were red roses.

Naomi stretched her hand out and took out the card buried among the red roses. Then, she took a look at it. There was nothing written in it except for a hand drawn smiley face.

Needless to say, it was from Nelson.

Naomi knitted her brows and pushed the flowers to the secretary.

"You can have them."

The secretary was mystified, "This is for you, though."

"If you don't want it, just throw it away."

"That'll be a pity. I'll take it! I'm going to put it on my desk."

After the secretary finished speaking, she left happily with the flowers in her arms. Naomi closed her eyes and thought about it for a moment before she called Nelson.

As soon as the call got through, she heard Nelson's voice.

He asked, "Have you received the flowers? Do you like them?"

Naomi snapped at him, "That's enough!"

Her tone was indignant.

"I think I've made it clear to you that we no longer have anything to do with each other. I've forgotten all the previous events that have happened. There is no love nor hatred between us anymore. Please stop disturbing me!"

Nelson was unfazed by her words as he replied, "I've also forgotten about the past as I'm going to have a brand-new start and get to know you all over again. Hello, my name is Nelson Luther."

"I don't want to know you."

"You can respond in any way, but you can't stop me from being nice to you. It's not just today nor the day after tomorrow. In the future, I will still-"

Naomi rejoined, "I'll throw all of them away!"

"Once they're delivered to you, they're yours. You can do whatever you want with them."

Naomi was at a loss for words.

She had no idea what to do.

Meanwhile, in the Olsen Group, Aaron was sweating profusely, considering whether to inform

Culver of the news he had just received.

If he told him about it, Culver would be infuriated and dock his salary.
